Biden is giving Israel an additional $1B in weapons??? [View all]

Honestly, this may not sit well with Gen Z, who we really need in November..

I really wish we had a middle ground and hope Biden and the DCC had a plan to get the ones back who are upset, and I believe there are ALOT of them.

There's $9,000,000,000 in humanitarian aid for Gaza in the package that passed today. lapucelle Apr 20 #61

So you concede that there are at least "a few billion for Gaza". lapucelle Apr 20 #65
More for bombs. Silent Type Apr 20 #66
So there are at least a few billion for humanitarian aid to Gaza. lapucelle Apr 20 #68

You were wrong when you implied that there is nothing in the aid package for Gaza. lapucelle Apr 20 #72
