“On October 13, the Biden administration told Prime Minister Netanyahu that his government had 30 days to increase humanitarian aid into Gaza or face the consequences under US law, which would include cutting off military assistance,” the Massachusetts senator said in a statement shared with the Guardian.

For the first time on the issue, Warren threw her weight behind a joint resolution of disapproval, a legislative tool that enables Congress to overturn actions taken by the executive branch. Such a resolution must pass both the House of Representatives and the Senate.

She added: “The failure by the Biden administration to follow US law and to suspend arms shipments is a grave mistake that undermines American credibility worldwide. If this administration will not act, Congress must step up to enforce US law and hold the Netanyahu government accountable through a joint resolution of disapproval.”

    Couldn’t have done this like six months ago? Maybe it would have prompted Harris to actually say she’d be different.

      Six months ago any criticism of the Biden administration would just be accused of helping support Trump.

      Can’t criticize the Dems before the election, can’t criticize them after the election.

        Definitely criticized them during the election but always made sure to say who I am voting for. As the only thing I really didn’t like was genocide (obv) and parading the Chaneys like that was going to help. But I remember arguing with a certain monk who seems to have disappeared about third parties being bad in our system.

              Ah, much appreciated; that doesn’t show up on my app. Man, I wish the experience weren’t so consistent between desktop and mobile. (Also good riddance.)

        Can’t criticize them after the election

        Huh? That’s all anyone has been doing the past week. What are you on? You’re acting like this is some sort of catch-22, but it so obviously isn’t: hold the line before the election to minimize the chances of a fascist getting into office (like in 2020 with Biden), then immediately thereafter regardless of the results completely shit all over them for how they aren’t where they should be.

    Lol, better get “genocide joe” to give the last shipment of humanitarian aid to gaza, because genocide trump thinks palestinians shouldn’t exist.
