The Hill ^ | 07/18/2024 | Brad Dress

More than 200 anonymous staff members across 122 Democratic and Republican congressional offices signed a letter this week calling for Congress to protest or boycott Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech next week on Capitol Hill, citing concerns about the ongoing war in Gaza.

The letter, organized by the Congressional Progressive Staff Associationa nd signed by 230 House and Senate staffers, said speaking out against Netanyahu’s July 24 joint address to Congress was an “issue of morality” and not politics.

“Citizens, students, and lawmakers across the country and the world have spoken out against the actions of Mr. Netanyahu in his War on Gaza,” the letter reads. “Israelis have been protesting in the streets for months, decrying his failure to negotiate a ceasefire and release of hostages. We hope you will join your fellow Members of Congress in protest at his speech or in refusing to attend it.”

Over 200 Hamas supporters on the congressional staffs! The swamp is deep.

If it contains signatures, it's not anonymous. It's hidden from the public. It's news, and it should be produced.

Congressional staffers are public employees. We have a right to know what they are doing, allegedly on our behalf, do we not?

Any Repuplican who has one of these staffers should be booted out asap. Israel would do well to mark these congressman.

More than 200 anonymous staff members across 122 Democratic and Republican congressional offices signed a letter this week...

What? How does an anonymous person sign a letter?

How are they anonymous if they signed it?

Find it and release it. Lets see whose House members’ staffs support Islamic terrorism and Iran.

What, they marked their "x" on the document and it was witnessed by a Hamassashite.

The letter says, "Americans! Don't buy what this Jew is selling!"

Similar to the staffer's cries in an earlier period, "Germans, don't buy from Jews!"

In the Persian empires the eunuchs were the ones who were actually in charge.

In the swamp, it’s the staffers.

Jew-hating employees should be banned from employment by Congress.

What the hell is with us always hearing about staffers? I see a recent flood of stories that the staffers are angry about this or that. That the staffers are upset with the congressman or president the work for, that the staffers thing we should do X or Y... etc etc.
