Rep. Rashida Tlaib: “But Palestinians are not just numbers. Behind these numbers are real people — mothers, fathers, sons, daughters — who have had their lives stolen from them and their families torn apart. And we should not be trying to hide it. These are innocent children and babies who have been bombed in their tents, burned alive, dismembered and deliberately starved to death. Where is our shared humanity in this chamber? There is so much anti-Palestinian racism in this chamber that my colleagues don’t even want to acknowledge that Palestinians exist at all, not when they’re alive and now not even when they’re dead. It’s absolutely disgusting. This is genocide denial.”
This is insane.
This is the bipartisan rules-based international order. There are 220 republicans and 213 Democrats in the House, and the vote was 269-144.
i’m not usually “both sides,” but i think some Dems voted for this as well
If you look at the vote count it was 99% of the republicans voted yes, and 30% of the dems voted yes. I think my point still stands
