The Democratic Socialists of America, which boasts six U.S. House of Representatives as members, announced a pro-“Palestine” rally in New York City’s Times Square on Sunday, a day after Hamas launched a surprise attack that killed 600 Israelis.
The demonstration was set for 1 p.m. near 42nd Street and Broadway.
“In solidarity with the Palestinian people and their right to resist 75 years of occupation and apartheid,” the New York City chapter of Democratic Socialists of America announced in a post on X (formerly Twitter).
In a series of tweets, the DSA held Israel responsible for the carnage, saying, “Today’s events are a direct result of Israel’s apartheid regime — a regime that receives billions in funding from the United States.”
Most members of the “Squad” belong to the DSA organization. They include Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.; Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich.; Cori Bush, D-Mo.; and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn. Reps. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y.; and Greg Casar, D-Texas, are also members.
Rep. Summer Lee, D-Penn., also considered a member of the Squad, whose ranks now number eight, left the DSA’s Pittsburgh chapter after disagreements in 2021. Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., another Squad member, was endorsed by the Boston chapter of the DSA, but doesn’t identify as socialist.

Do it. Switch parties later.
Thanks for posting that.
“...Hold Pro-’Palestine’ Rally in NYC”
Ironic, their ignorance.
“apartheid”
They do know there’s Muslim’s in Israel right? How many Jew’s in ‘Palestine’?
The only people I feel sorry for are ‘Palestinian’ children. The Hamas and their supporters should be erased.
Yep.

No surprise there. I don’t know the others.
All of them it’s a party thing.
So, these morons support the wholesale slaughter of innocents? Cool. It makes it easier to identify them.
