      If we stop funding the genocide, what are we going to spent that $20B on? Student debt forgiveness? Medicaid expansion? A functional domestic transit system? Cybersecurity worth half a shit?

      Fuck you. No. We’re blowing it all on new kit for a dozen IDF soldiers jerking themselves over a pile of lingerie stolen from a dead Palestinian.

    Isreal gets more bombs, and the 1% get more of our tax money. What a boring distopia we live in.

    I really want to hear more about Cori Bush’s plan to take down AIPAC.

    It’s time to do it.

      Didn’t she just lose her primary because of them? Did she say she is going to dedicate herself to taking them down now, like some sort of Korean revenge flick? Because I am all for this new arc of hers of that’s the case.
