The dem machine is finally considering that if the genocide goes all the way to election day - it could be very bad. (hexbear.net)

Dems gonna thread that needle like a surgeon. I’m sure AIPAC and other Israeli lobbies will be calling Dem offices over the weekend to let them know that if the weapons don’t flow to Israel, instead of donating to both parties they will load up on the GOP (and the GOP will be more than happy to oblige and take the position that Israel must not be hindered). We might see a different tune by Monday.

But the genocide really is hurting them deeply in the polls. So get ready for a performance from the Dems worth of Kenneth Branaugh. There will be so many condemnations, “calls for peace”, and a whole lot of empty words. But where it really matters:

Weapons to Israel
Running cover for Israel at the UN/ICJ
Threats to do X if Israel doesn’t let aid in

You won’t actually see any changes. I’m so sure of this, you can write down, sign it, and mail it to yourself.
