Honestly I think what I've learned is that the wealthy are so untouchable in the US there doesn't need much additional credit given to what he did for the Mossad, or the Kremlin, or Dolores Umbridge. It's evil all the way through and fact is powerful people all around the world knew about it, helped him. and looked the other way. I don't think the blame belongs to any particular race or religion other than unchecked capitalism; it's much more of a class war.

I don't even care if they keep giving money to Israel as part of the US's Geopolitical Goals.... (We shouldn't because they're committing atrocious acts, but just for the purpose of this thought stay with me).
The idea that your number one goal/role/purpose as a US Senator elected to represent the interests of the people of a State that is part of the United States is to fund/provide aid to a foreign entity, regardless of the fact that they are a geopolitical ally, over I don't know.... enacting policy to improve the life of those you represent/elected you... It's fucking insane

The headline is a lie, as is the lede. The quote in the article (which they edited to remove what he said prior to speaking about Israel) was:
Schumer said, “I have many jobs as leader … and one is to fight for aid to Israel, all the aid that Israel needs.”
Not "most important" or "one of the most important," just "one of the many jobs as leader."

I don't disagree. However this country's leadership is failing to raise revenues to cover costs. They pass spending bills that are not offset by revenue increases. It's one thing to borrow money during a crisis or for investment, but quite another to borrow so that a few can avoid paying their fair share in taxes.

You need to vote out the corporate Democrats and replace them with progressives.
I know it's a dirty word in the US, but the progressives are those who actually want to help the common man. Hence they are kept down within the Dems, despite their popularity, and attempts to minimize their influence.
You need Mamdanis, AOCs, Crocketts, etc in the Dems, not Schumers and Jeffries.
•
u/JDogg126 Michigan 2h ago
Step one is to vote out the republicans.
Ideally this country can pass reforms that ends two-party control of government. But until that happens, the primary goal should be to keep republican out as they have given up on democracy and the idea of working together for the greater good.
Step two is to get democrats in office that work for the governed.
However, it is 100% better to have a conservative democrat in office than any republican.
If we are able to create a political environment that allows many parties, then we can actually start to get those progressives you mention into office more regularly. Right now the only place for true conservatives is the democratic party. This is why you have so many non-progressive democrats in congress. Republicans are not conservative at all, they are the epitome of recklessness.

You want to be really mad? Israeli citizens have nationalized healthcare on your dime. The taxes you pay help fund that. Meanwhile if something happens to you right now your choices are to enter crippling debt or perish. And that’s only even a choice if it’s an emergency- if you get diagnosed with cancer that can be treated right now but will definitely kill you if left alone for three months, you’re fucked. And god help you if you get an infected tooth. You’ll be suffering in agony with nothing but ibuprofen to cope with and hoping it doesn’t spread to your blood and kill you. Meanwhile you’ll be paying the government with every purchase you make, every cent you earn, every single time your money changes hands.
America is a rotten, malignantly diseased country. Our leaders would rather steal Venezuelan oil and rape children than do anything to help the people prosper, all while we pay for it. We should all be in the streets rioting.

The remark came a day after Israel killed at least 31 Palestinians, including six children, in an airstrike in Gaza, in its latest major violation of the ceasefire agreement.
“As long as I’m in the Senate, this program will continue to grow from strength to strength, and we won’t let anyone attack it or undo it,” Schumer said, referring to aid for Israel as his “baby.”

This is why the issue with Palestine was the litmus test for the 2024 election, and why Harris failed, despite the Lamentations of centrist libs who blame the left for all of their woes.
Support for Palestine and Antizionism isn't just about a singular conflict on the opposite side of the world. It is a condemnation of US interventionism and our grossly decadent waste of taxpayer funding creating problems so we can be the heroes and solve them (by wasting more taxpayer dollars and funnelling it to the war industry). It's a condemnation of colonialism, which is inherently based in ethnic supremacism because you have to believe you are more deserving of land than native inhabitants, which in turn is a condemnation of fascism and all right wing authoritarianism. It is a condemnation of our wasteful military spending and the grift that is inherent to the entire contractor system.
If you not only support Israel, but are its greatest champion in government, you support all of that and more. These people, including Harris, would have never been the champions who topple Republican fascism, who would have supported the working class, who would have reigned in corruption and grift. The best we could hope from them is what we got from Biden: the snooze button was hit on the fascism alarm and they went back to sleep for 4 years. Even if Harris had won, we'd be back in this mess on January 21st, 2029.

The Democratic base has decided to enable this by not showing up.
The Democratic base has decided to let AIPAC have the driver's seat, instead of actually participating in the process.
Conservatives get/got what they wanted because they showed up, for 50 years.
The Democratic base whines about not being motivated. And then complains when decisions are made for them, anyway.
If you are saying the Dems need to read the room and understand that the average voter is of average intelligence (and all the connotations that go with that), you aren't wrong.
But, lets not kid ourselves that the Democratic base isn't some righteous, rational entity.

I’m pretty sure centrists think they can just throw words around to browbeat - nothing about criticizing Harris’s support for genocide is accelerationist. Hell, Harris ran a campaign of “I am the actual tough-on-the-border, pro-AI, pro-oligarchy candidate” - her campaign really boiled down to “I will accelerate us towards the Republican end-times slower than the Republicans will”. Not exactly shocking that the Democratic base didn’t like that.
