    why is he constantly spouting it in public […]

    Do you (or someone) happen to have a source/link for me with some of his own words in it? I mean I’m not from the US, maybe I’m missing part of the picture. I’d still like to read up on it though. Most I ever read is some third parties claiming he sure must be XY. But I kinda need to see it come from him, either by his words or actions, and judge by myself, in order to change my mind.

      Straight from the horse’s mouth:

      Here he is claiming that a one-state solution would mean the end of Israel, and he supports Israel

      Here he is saying that Hamas “terrorists” “attacked Israel” and repeating the “Israel has the right to defend itself” talking point

      Here he is vowing to continue to support “defensive arms” shipments to Israel, a class of weapon he continued to very conveniently leave out of his whitewashing attempts to reduce arms sales to Israel later

      Bernie Sanders also voted to confirm notorious right-winger and staunch pro-Israel Republican Marco Rubio as the US Secretary of State.

        Lol, why did he vote for Rubio? Anyways, thanks for all the links! Now I got to figure out how to play those videos. Damn X really upped the enshittification. It won’t do anything but nag me to install the app on mobile, or sign up on my laptop… I’ll find a way.

          Because like I said, they’re both sides of the same coin. The vote was unanimous – everyone voted for him.
