The best Democratic leadership Israeli money can buy.
“Leaders” is doing a lot of work there
Their job title is not the same as what they actually do.
Bleaters.
I mean, the Dems want support for Israel. Behind closed doors I’m sure they’re giddy about Trump wanting to level every single building in Iran at Israel’s request.
Americans need to turn over 3/4 of sitting politicians by 2028 or y’all can just turn in your Liberty Cards for good.
The rest of the world can’t save you from yourselves.
Pretty sure we are already cooked frankly. Even if we get Republicans out, It’s more than likely old guard Democrats will stick around. And they will do nothing… again. So that next time republicans win (and they will within a few cycles, tops. people here are dumb. Really, really dumb.) they will still be free to keep doing the bullshit they are doing now.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m still gonna vote. I’m still gonna fight this shit in whatever other ways are available to me as a non-wealthy citizen. Admittedly that doesn’t add up to much but still, ya gotta do what ya can, even if it feels fruitless. Rolling over and giving up just gets us even more extreme fascism even faster.
Democrats will stick around. And they will do nothing
If they did nothing that would actually be an improvement. But what they do is make sure they use their seniority in the party to keep newly elected dems from replacing them on committee chairmanships and leadership roles. I.e. Whip and Minority leader.
I agree. But when I say turn over 3/4 of sitting politicians, I mean specifically the Do Nothing Democrats. I specifically mean that americans need to primary challenge democrats every election to keep them on the side of the people and not the corporate donors.

Regardless of your opinion on AOC, this documentary about how she got elected lays out the steps.
-
Independent local grassroots electoral movement. Dedicated to getting/organizing volunteers, signature gathering, door knocking, everything from getting candidates on the ballot to winning in the election.
-
Candidate nominations. AOC didn’t sign up, her BIL or someone nominated her and the Grassroots Movement approached her to run.
-
PRIMARIES. PRIMARIES. PRIMARIES. Target establishment DNCs who clearly have more in common with corporate lobbyists than their own constituents.
-
Run the numbers game. Only 1/4 of their candidates won. Democrats should face a primary EVERY SINGLE ELECTION.
-
Where are all the “good” candidates? There’s a few whose name is tossed around but you’re talking hundreds.
That detective, is the right question.
They don’t exist yet.

“We’ll keep buying arms from you and using your dollar for international trade, but… you better topple your government”
thanks buddy
You say that like the USA hasn’t toppled MULTIPLE democracies to maintain their hegemony.
Every enemy of the USA was armed by the CIA.
Read a book buddy.
I have, and that’s why I know YOUR country is a part of the beast, pal, a tentacle of the squid
Yeah, it’s really hard to stand up to the superpower USA. If your entire country won’t do it (don’t’ want to get toppled!), you think we (civilians with no military) can?
Ah well… we don’t want to get our democracies toppled, you know what I mean, don’t you?
You need to read more books. Try “Legacy of Ashes”, champ
wtf are you talking about? I said Americans need to elect new leaders. wtf is your problem with that?
How can you not know what I’m talking about? Just read what I wrote. That is the key that will solve this mystery.
I don’t have a problem with you, I’m pointing out that the US empire is international and enabled by countries just like yours, it can’t be “voted out”. It can’t even be fixed by Americans alone.
We are long past that point. This will not be voted out.
Because I actually understand how the US, other democracies, and international law functions to a degree. You on the other hand sound like you got your civics education in the US.
You sound like you’ve never read an entire book.
You don’t know how anything at all works, do you? Tell me more about international law Socrates.
I also think this is a strange thing for Europeans to ask. Their world leaders keep capitulating to Trump and getting photographed with him having sit-down negotiations and going to lunch and shit like that. They have their own military and their own world leaders and won’t stand up to him, yet they expect civillians with no military training to do so? We can’t do anything.
Many of them are little more than US states, a lot of things changed with reconstruction. All of the scales were weighted to the US’s advantage, by design.
The USA is very much like the British Empire because it IS the British empire, the same financial interests run the show (some of which have been around since the slavery days).
I am intrigued by this “blame the British” angle. I reflexively approve and agree.
Some Democrats have been strongly against it by explaining how gas prices might increase and in light of all the illegal bombings and murder that it’s going to cost the average voter more to fill up their vehicle.
“Let’s not murder people in another country because it might slightly inconvenience us at home!”
Wow. Such argument. Most strong. Not that I expect the Democraps to do much more than put out a letter that’s totally in the mail right now.
Well, to be fair, that’s all Americans care about.
“Ladles and Jellyspoons! Please welcome the MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries!”
“BOOOOO! GIVE’EM THE HOOK!”
The uniparty has never been so undeniable
“Don’t blame me, I voted for Kudos”.
It’s crazy to see a Congo Line of (D) Senators go on cable news and announce “I love our President’s war in Iran, I just wish he’d asked us nicely first”, as videos and pictures trickle in of whole schools being massacred and neighborhood hospitals flattened.
The same folks who were screaming “This never would have happened under Harris” a month ago have come out pledging unswerving allegiance to the Israeli flag over the weekend.
Don’t pay attention to what the assholes in congress say, pay attention to what the assholes at the Rand corp and Heritage Foundation say.
Im more interested in why we aren’t excoriating Republicans. They can end this all today.
cowards kinda implies they have some motivation other than being secretly pro-war
Secretly?
Well its not exactly a secret. But there is a trillion-dollar propaganda campaign to pretend otherwise.
they’re cowards about the fucking Epstein files, 90% of them only got elected because of aipac
90%? You are not giving aipac enough credit
Consider this: Epstein was working for Mossad.
Blame the Christian majority in this country and it’s oldest obsession with the so called holy land
Blaming AIPAC money and those spineless enough to take it would be closer to the mark.
What the republicans can’t win because their ideas are shitty the democrats will hand them because they’re spineless.
Dems have never had a war they haven’t been foaming at the mouth to get into
There was a response?
This is what you get when you think the reason your party won in 2012 is because memes pointing out, that Obama was a good Christian and Romney had several divorces…
Backlash? How will they ever survive?
