Fellow Democrats Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar [as well as Democrats Al Green of Texas, Summer Lee of Pennsylvania and Republican Thomas Massie of Kentucky - PL] had supported Taylor Greene’s amendment, which eventually lost in a 422-6 vote.
In a post on X on Saturday, Ocasio-Cortez claimed that Greene’s amendment did “nothing to cut off offensive aid to Israel nor end the flow of US munitions being used in Gaza”.
Would you mind reading the username there?
Wow. Eptiome of honor here. I bow to your “holy” presence.
Definitely not a cowardly intellectually dishonest sophist.
Do you think all consequences of aggressors are justified?
Still not an answer to the question. One that you posed.
I see you’re dodging your own quotation.
Who cares how much support there is for a genocide? why even bring that up? I’m 100% sure you won’t answer this either.
I think imposing any consequences on the aggressors of a genocide would be a good start.
I care. I don’t want any support for genocide. Because then you get genocide.
Do you think all consequences for the aggressor are justified?
