Aug 29 (Reuters) - Kamala Harris vowed a tougher approach to migration along the U.S. southern border and said she would not withhold weapons to Israel, in her first interview with a major news organization since becoming the Democratic nominee for president.

Harris said she would renew a push for comprehensive border legislation that would tighten migration into the United States, and vowed to “enforce our laws” against border crossings.

She also hewed closely to President Joe Biden’s strong support of Israel and rejected calls from some in the Democratic Party that Washington should rethink sending weapons to Israel because of the heavy Palestinian death toll in Gaza.

    because of the heavy Palestinian death toll in Gaza.

    Because of the genocide in Gaza. You can call it like it is. The UN already said it’s genocide. That’s why Bibi is a wanted criminal according to the international court of justice. Because of the genocide. That the US, again, is deciding to support with weapons. Fucking disgraceful…

    The “other” candidate promised to do even worse … so pick your poison. No good choices, only least bad ones.

      Other parties which don’t support Genocide exist.

          You’ve started adding irrelevant criteria.

            Until we change our First Past the Post voting system in America, there are only two parties that can win. We need to change the rules to get out of this mess.

              Until we elect a third party the rules are never going to change. If stopping a Genocide isn’t in the playbook a new voting system is a pipe dream.

                Stop pretending you care about preventing genocide when you’re working overtime to ensure it

                We will never elect a 3rd party to president in the USA without a different voting system than FPtP. Stop being intellectually dishonest. You’re transparent as fuck, as always.

        Except that supporting those parties guarantees the genocide gets worse and you know that, but that’s the point, isn’t it?

            Ah yes trump will be better right? Now here’s the part where you pretend that’s irrelevant. Why did you bother?

      You can see the month supply of copium running out in real time.

      Back to the Biden classic of “who cares about Genocide anyways”.
