If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media. But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

Schumer doubts that democracy is presently at risk, but, regardless, he envisions ZERO role or agency for Congressional Democrats beyond that of ordinary citizens. Just an astounding dereliction of duty. JFC.
