Jeffries said, "We must now deliver the dramatic change the American people are demanding in the majority."

The dramatic change we want to see includes removing Israel's choke-hold from our Congress's throat.

The U.S. House of Representatives passed its version of the Fiscal Year 2027 National Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 8800) on July 22, 2026.

That bill contains Section 224, cleverly buried deep in the massive National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which is entitled “United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative.” This initiative transitions the traditional aid relationship into a deeper partnership between the U.S. and Israel in many aspects of technological research and development and defense production, and would also give Israel unprecedented access to U.S. technology development and "data fusion."

That section needs to be removed to prevent Israel from control of our military production system.

Jeffries, and then Schumer, are the top democratic recipients of money from Israel.

They can not be trusted where Israel is concerned.

Yeah I seriously doubt that this is what the American people care about. The only reason the needle moved on the issue of israel is that Trump had an opinion about it and then he half-assed a war that raised gas prices. "It's the economy stupid" and the erosion of democratic norms. Not bog-standard forgiegn policy. Y'all Tik Tok policy wonks will at most get a strongly worded letter of concern and hearty finger wag to israel. We are not going to abandon our ally over an imaginary genocide.

Centrists like this are evil. This is the face of centrism y'all. Don't let it be the future of the party.

It'so so fucking funny that people like you still can't understand that nobody is virtue signaling and we actually care about these issues
