I'm sure that the overwhelming majority of your readership share your justifiable anger at members of congress that won't stand up to the evil being perpetuated in their name. In 1965, when Lyndon Johnson asked Congress for the authority to vastly expand our war effort in Vietnam with the Gulf of Tonkin resolution, only two senators: Mike Gravel of Alaska and Wayne Morse of Oregon had the balls to say "no." They were the only ones. And since that supposed attack on our ships off the Vietnam coast never happened, the authority granted was predicated on an out and out lie. Now, most of congress cheers for Netanyahu and the Israelis which means they're fully on board with genocide. Yes, I'm sure your readership shares your anger.
Indeed, not only Tlaib, and Massey, Omar, Lee, Sanders, and more. They should take that step to put up articles of impeachment. Do we have any insight as to why they aren't? Is it flat out fear? What can we do to persuade them we have their backs if they took that step? Or does anyone really have their backs? What kind of systems do we have to help people, in such difficult circumstances, to take the right steps? I don't have the answers, but I'm almost certain we don't have anything in place. Maybe that needs to change?
i don't believe they actually have the power and they know it. i don't think it's fear as much as recognizing the futility of going against the establishment/oligarchy/corporatocracy or whatever we wanna call it. it's bigger than they/we are. the current system is so broken and corrupt in ways we haven't even dreamed about. they all know it. we don't. (would love to be wrong)
even if they (or anyone in DC) did... which they won't... it'd only serve as distraction for whoever it is that's actually running the country and making these outrageous decisions...
they don't even talk about nevermind DO anything to really help Americans after disasters right here.
The best thing Pope Francis could ever do is to make his stand in Gaza, or Bethlehem. He has an opportunity that is unequalled, to say "no" to genocide. If Gaza is no longer an option, thanks to the total blockade by Israel. He could even go to the West Bank, Beirut, or even Teheran, and say, “Not in our name, not on our watch.”
We've been killing Yemen for years. At least since 2015, another chronic USAmade humanitarian crisis,
"The United Nations has repeated for more than two years that Yemen is suffering from the “largest humanitarian crisis in the world,” due entirely to this war.
Yet the US government, through the administrations of both Donald Trump and Barack Obama, has said strikingly little about the catastrophe in Yemen, which it is directly responsible for creating and continuing to exacerbate. (Contrast Washington’s muted response to the calamity it created in Yemen with the exaggerated claims of a “humanitarian crisis” it has deployed to justify a right-wing coup attempt in Venezuela.) . . .
