Several Democrats have come out against President Biden’s decision to withhold weapons from Israel as it pushes into Rafah to eliminate the terrorist group Hamas; Reps. John Fetterman, Jared Moskowitz, Ritchie Torres, and Lois Frankel are blasting their party leader.
Torres wasn’t the only Democrat who provided Axios with a comment.
Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) told Axios: “I strenuously disagree … We have to stand with our key ally throughout all of this.”
Rep. Lois Frankel (D-FLA) told Axios that Israel is “surrounded by danger, they need the tools to defend themselves” and the U.S. “should fulfill our obligation” by sending the weapons.
Rep. Jared Moskowitz (D-FLA) said the move is clearly geared towards sending Israel a “message” about their use of force, but “Hamas is also getting the message … and that means the war is going to go on.”
Of course, prominent conservative voices are speaking out against Biden as well.
“Hamas Joe,” Fox News contributor Ben Domenech wrote.
“We stand by allies, we don’t second guess them,” Sen. Mitt Romney wrote. “Biden’s dithering on Israel weapons is bad policy and a terrible message to Israel, our allies, and the world.”
“Hamas still has five American hostages and Joe Biden just said if Israel attacks again he’s not giving them weapons to use,” OutKick founder Clay Travis wrote. “Tell me how this isn’t treason. Biden is worried about losing Arab support in Michigan so he’s turning his back on Israel. This is all politics. Shameful.”

Biden must be removed from office by all means necessary.
He’s doing a fantastic job. Look how many sheeple he fooled – including you.
