Days before Schumer’s remarks, the Trump administration bypassed Congress to approve a $7 billion arms sale to Israel.

    Well, it was pretty obvious that his job was not to fight for the US and their citizens.

    Of all the things, funding another fucking country that already has universal health care is absolutely NOT your fucking job, asshole.

    I’m sure many Israelis look over here at clueless marks funding them and their lifestyle of apartheid and murder and just laugh at us…

    Dereliction of duty in such a high office is horrible.

    Moreover, enabling genocide is unacceptable.

    And this is what AIPAC Chuck Schumer will be remembered for.

        Haven’t you heard? Treason is acceptable now. You are allowed to commit treason if you have a solid, selfish reason for it. Selling out your country for a lot of money is at the top of the list of acceptable reasons for Treason.

          Doesn’t matter the citizenship of the assholes. They want to prop up the defense industry with more contracts and protect other financial interests of the wealthy. Its a class thing not a nationality/ethnic/religious thing.

    Make Treason punishable by death again!

    Treason- The betrayal of allegiance toward one’s own country, especially by committing hostile acts against it or aiding its enemies in committing such acts.

    Definition: In Article III, Section 3 of the United States Constitution, treason is specifically limited to levying war against the U.S., or adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.[1]

    Penalty: Under U.S. Code Title 18, the penalty is death,[34][35] or not less than five years’ imprisonment (with a minimum fine of $10,000, if not sentenced to death). Any person convicted of treason against the United States also forfeits the right to hold public office in the United States.[36]

    We should bring everyone on this list up on charges https://www.trackaipac.com/congress

        Let’s start with the people actually currently holding power. They will be sentenced in proportion to their crimes against the American people and then be sent to the hauge to be sentenced for their war crimes against the citizens of Gaza

        And maybe that would lead future presidents to consider very carefully the kinds of actions they take.

      I mean, that says “enemies.” Unless Israel is considered an enemy, it’s not treason.

    Senile self-satisfied old fuck needs to be forcibly removed. But who knows who they’d actually replace him with because it’d probably be another pro-Israel democrat who thinks Amazon deserves more tax breaks and that ICE isn’t that bad.
