      Keeping your eye on the ball…suppose Schumer did bring the House bill to the floor. Suppose also, that by some quirk it passed. How long do you think it would take Biden to Veto it? I’d say 30 seconds max.

        You really think Biden will step in to protect the rights of people protesting Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, the one he has been facilitating for more than a year? Biden who takes significant amounts of money from pro-Israel organizations and has consistently sent Israel weapons throughout its attack on Gaza? Trump and Biden are pretty much aligned when it comes to supporting the genocide and wanting to silence the protestors, although their methods may differ.

        This is such a hilariously fantastic view of who Biden is. Like with pretending that abusing people with Blue MAGA rhetoric was going to win an election, you do elicit this choice at all of our peril.

        Biden isn’t on your side. Neither are the Democrats.

          They could be. If we take a deep breath and collectively decide to tell the collective political establishment as it stands to fuck off, we CAN make change. On a side note: This is also how you fight fascism.
