    Can’t remember at the moment what it’s called, but there’s a law making it illegal for the US to support war crimes. If the president ceased aid to Israel on those grounds, congress would have to be unusually united to override it. Not saying it couldn’t happen, but it’d be a difficult fight to pick when Israel is being so brazenly genocidal.
