In a letter published Wednesday on Medium, an anonymous group of Biden’s campaign staffers demanded the president call for a ceasefire in Gaza, citing concerns that not shifting his policy on the issue could hurt his 2024 chances.


“Biden for President staff have seen volunteers quit in droves, and people who have voted blue for decades feel uncertain about doing so for the first time ever, because of this conflict,” the Medium letter read.

“It is not enough to merely be the alternative to Donald Trump,” the campaigners continued. “The campaign has to shift the feeling in the pits of voters’ stomachs, the same feeling that weighs on us every day as we fight for your reelection. The only way to do that is to call for a ceasefire.”

    Folks don’t want Genocidal Joe. Anyone supporting him is supporting the sleep walking to fascism.

      Yes because clearly whomever else runs won’t put our troops into Gaza instead? Oh? You want to vote 3rd party? Lol. You just voted for Trump. I’d tell you that you’re throwing your vote away, but I won’t. There will be plenty of time for that. When we’re in the concentration camp.

        A vote for Democrats is a vote for a party that “isn’t trump” but isn’t particularly interested in stopping him or the impending fascism.

          As opposed to the guy who literally is fascist and “comes up with Hitler’s talking points independently”.

          The camps won’t be summer camp.

          Sure maybe they’ll start with trans youth. Then lgbtq. Then brown people. Then cat boys.

          Do you really want to live in a country without cat boys?

          Eventually they’ll find a reason to go after you or someone else who you do care about.

          You posted Bernie or bust in 2016 on live journal? Choo Choo! Off to the camps!

            My point is we’ve played this game for decades and it still led us to Trump because democrats and liberals DON’T DO SHIT TO STOP THEM. They’re complicit because they still benefit from Republicans getting their way.

            Voting dem doesn’t stop fascism, it only delays it by an election or two as Republicans continue to consolidate power and disenfranchise voters while the dems shrug because they think the only true injustice is hurting Republicans feels.

                If every person who shrieked a vote for a third party elects trump voted for a third party, we’d get a third party.

                You’re the one voting for Trump by refusing to move away from a broken system. Voting slightly less right is still voting for the right. 🤷

              Okay sure let me know how many communists you know?

              Because they certainly have the roadmap for a final one.

                P2025 only scares white liberals because it finally targets you. Everyone in the global majority have had versions of P2025 for decades, if not centuries. You demand we come to your rescue to prevent your version of P2025 while you didn’t have our backs while they were oppressing us. In fact liberals did worse, claim to support their plight while electing the people that amplified the struggle. Restructuring the executive branch to benefit the donor class has been happening since Clinton and his DLC.

              No it’s a warning. The concentration camp will give you lots of time to think about the time you put your principles ahead of your best interests.

      For those who’s not voting for Joe or won’t vote because of Biden position, reminder that you can still vote, and pick the candidates that AIPAC is financing against within downballots.

      However, I will vote for Joe Biden because we live in the FPTP system, and I plan to vote out AIPAC endorsed candidates on the downballot. I’m voting in people that has naunces which means I will not support people who do hate Jewish people.
