The US GOVERNMENT likes to pat itself on the back about freedom of speech on TV all the time but won't even let its own news personnel speak freely about GENOCIDE in Gaza without reprimand. That's the same reason Bernies mouth is still covered. APAC is another issue. There is no free press. America is a lie in half and an embarassment to democracy.

The college protesters understand this. What is wrong with our damn Senate and US President. What can we do, what can I, an old lady do? Even Bernie Sanders, Senator Sanders, cant wake them up. Thank you for trying. I am so depressed. This is so shameful that we continue to in this un American un accountable in humane policy.
Do what you can. I leave comments to the POTUS and VPOTUS at Whitehouse.gov regarding the genocide being perpetrated by Israel, for whatever good that does. At least they know I’m very displeased with their actions and inactions and I consider their rhetoric empty and misleading. My own Rep is often on the wrong side, due to being from a heavily gerrymandered state. So I financially support Representatives who are on the conscientious side on this and many other issues, even though they are not from my district, most not from my state. I do so for primary challengers I believe in, within my state and without, at all levels of government. I can’t give much each month, but every bit helps. I also financially support aid groups and independent media channels who give air time to exposing the crimes being committed. People and groups like World Central Kitchen, MSF, UNRWA (I started that after the US government ceased its contributions and it became very obvious the allegations against it were unsubstantiated and very likely a pack of lies), Owen Jones, Democracy Now!, The Majority Report, The Guardian, and The Intercept. Even liking the videos they post and subscribing to their channels help them if you can’t give them money. There are many who do more, often much more. Do what you can. It’s better than doing nothing.
I agree with EVERY BRILLIANT WORD THIS GREAT SENATOR SAID!!! CEASEFIRE!!!!!! STOP THE GENOCIDE!!!! THIS IS BARBARIC AND WE ARE GOING DOWN ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY!!!! SHAME!!! WE CAN DO BETTER!!!! WE MUST DO BETTER!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing and providing the evidence that American people need to understand what is happening as a result of Netanyahu's immoral war in Gaza.
Thank you for being literally the only one in our Congress to even mention the will of the American people. We elected them, you’d think they’d care what we think.
We need to stop paying for Wars all over the World. Hate to tell you but American Seniors need help! SNAP has been reduced while food prices climb. Low Income Housing for Seniors is scarce, certainly not enough for the number of Elderly who need housing! I'll soon be 79, and cannot afford the US cost of living.
Bernie supported Medicare for all. That lost my vote. Hilary supported universal health care and was working toward it in the 1990s. Newt Gingrich should’ve been shut up then. Bernie has a lot of good to say, but he would’ve gotten more votes if Medicare had been universal health care. Bible bangers and mega fundraisers support the Israel myth. Netanyahoo is a brain damaged nut
The problem is if they listen to the mainstream media they are getting a distorted picture. For example the news radio in New York said the college demonstrations were antisemitic demonstrations.
You must be talking about Biden and the role he played in both the Russia/Ukraine war and the Israel/Palestine war, as well as doing everything in his power to provoke China into a war over Taiwan. He's a real-life psychopath.
Bernie, I just want you to know I disagreed with Chuck Schumer's comment after the vote today. He said that those who did not vote for the bill were "isolationists." Yes, there were some who are isolationists -- but your position is clear. Thank you for continuing to call out Natanyahu's failing on the issue of slaughtering the innocents in Gaza who cannot escape. It's so wrong.
"Cut all the funds" also implies that 98% of Congress don't get their AIPAC buyout money and that more people than seven Senators will actually represent _us_ instead of a _foreign nation._ *...proceed.*
Fighting genocide isn’t antisemitism. Its the law, internationally. I oppose Russia's action in the Ukraine that caused the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians. I am not anti-Russian. I am antI - genocide irrespective of who is committing the genocides. I am currently watching Ken Burn's documentary on the holocaust and strangely enough I am relating to it because what is happening in Gaza by Israel as they concentrate populations for extermination. But Jews in general should not be a target. Many Jews find what is happening as abhorrent. My wife's Rabbi is raising funds to help the starving children of Gaza. But what is really going on here. Why is Israel acting like the Nazis? The Israeli philosopher Yeshayahu Leibowitz introduced the term "Judeo-Nazis." He argued that continued military occupation of the Palestinian territories would lead to the moral degradation of Israeli Defense Force (IDF), with individuals committing atrocities for state security interests. In 1988, Holocaust survivor Yehuda Elkana warned that the tendency in Israel to see all potential threats as existential and all opponents as Nazis would lead to Nazi-like behavior by Jews. During the First Intifada, historian Omer Bartov was enraged by Yitzhak Rabin's call to "break the bones" of Palestinians and wrote him a letter arguing that, based on Bartov's research, the IDF could be similarly brutalized as the German Army was during World War II. One Israeli nationalist told Amos Oz that he did not care if Israel was called a Judeo-Nazi state, it was "better [to be] a living Judeo-Nazi than a dead saint." In 2018, Noam Chomsky cited Leibowitz, arguing that he was right in his prediction that the occupation was producing Judeo-Nazis. The U.S. is Israel's greatest enemy, not HAMAS or any other terrorist group, for its unconditional support of Israel reducing it to become a spoiled child of the U.S., uncontrolled and brazen. Do not blame the IDF or even Israeli leaders, the culprit is U.S. blind support of Israel, and this support will eventually undermine Israel’s existence. @@lucapolidori8817
@@peterleigh1281 The genocide of Palestinians is CREATING more hatred for Jews, and Americans (and Israel) than anything ever before. It is the STUPIDEST 'war' (it ISN'T a war. It's a genocide), in modern history.
At times we think that humanity has died out in the USA, but when we hear voices like yours we have hope that honest and humane people are resisting Nazi Zionism. Thank you, Mr. Sanders!
And this is why I'm not with any political party. The government as a whole doesn't care what we want and act only in their own interests. But thank you, Mr. Sanders for standing up for Palestinians and exposing Israel's atrocities. 😢🙏
I think it's a bit more shaded than that it's the Ultra right, nationalist that embrace the Religious fundamentalists who loath even their own secular and moderate citizens. Sound familiar? Netinyahou and Hamas are two arms of the same bird .. xenophobia and zealotry racism are the stock in trade of political and religious authoritarianism. Netinyahou and his authoritarian govt was in deep trouble with the General population and ex service personnel before the Hamas attack. In fact stand off a little way and you can see that they effectively rescued each other but that's the standard modus operandi of political/ religious sectarianism. It remains a twisted nerve in the human species ... and once one side deploys it becomes .... well atrocity breeds atrocity.. on through time. This is a repeating phenomena. That's even without what we know about epigenetics. As for weapons just think about the genocide that was fired up in Rwanda Africa between the Huthi and the Tutsi.. tens of thousands were killed tortured and masacred by their neighbours with hand tools men women and children... In the space of a week. The only answer is to remove the instigators on both sides from the equation..Political Religious and social... and remove the propaganda triggers from future generations and let them see who, how and why certain individuals and groups always attempt to trigger that side of human nature. Unless you can, get people to question, listen and think critically and from multiple perspectives, especially long term you are going to be constantly dealing with those who always see differences as a tool to control and empower themselves or their group. There is also the growing pressures of population growth in increasingly finite environments with failing life support. 🌍🧙🏼♂️
There were 3 Democrats and 15 Republicans who held on to their convictions, and refused to vote for the mind boggling $95 BILLION "foreign aid bill." The 3 Dems who voted against it were listed, but not the names of the 15 Republicans. I've been trying to find out who stood strong and didn't cave.
Thank you, Bernie. After the vote today in the Senate for more weapons to reward and cause more war crimes and deaths of innocents, I find myself so forlorn, disappointed and losing faith in our Congress and government to both listen to the people and to make right and moral choices. Listening to you now makes me feel a little better, just knowing that you are there standing up, speaking truth, calling out your colleagues for this horrible policy, and giving voice for all of us whose wishes and opinions are being ignored by our own representatives. We appreciate you, Bernie. Please never stop.
It angers me that the Senator is speaking to a mostly empty room. All senators should be required to be present for all speeches, which are limited in time and rebuttals should be given. I want to see governance.
I imagine this is torture for you Bernie. I wish you didn't have to carry this burden. But very few are doing it and none are doing it as well as you. Thank you so much and I'm so sorry.
Mr. Sanders named some surprising truths here. Israel wanted Hamas to take full control of Gaza, splitting Palestinians in two regions, and imposed a blockade since 2007 to make sure they became two totally separate people. Along with taking parts of the West Bank, bit by bit, year after year.
He did and most of this is backed by Israeli media whilst the rest is seen in front of western cameras. But still the US State Dept are blind and deaf to this whilst at the same time taking everything Israel says as fact even when it is proved wrong.

I second that!
It is NOT 100 because he refuse to call it for what it is A TEXTBOOK CASE OF GENOCIDE. I givit 65%
How is this not genocide? Thank you, Bernie, for continuing to bring the truth to us even when our government won’t listen. At least, you’re trying to get them to recognize and act on this horrific situation.
It is genocide and Bernie knows it.
he still supports the genocide he voted to pass this bill
The US GOVERNMENT likes to pat itself on the back about freedom of speech on TV all the time but won't even let its own news personnel speak freely about GENOCIDE in Gaza without reprimand. That's the same reason Bernies mouth is still covered. APAC is another issue. There is no free press. America is a lie in half and an embarassment to democracy.
He’s part hypocrite though because If that was done to Israel I BET he will not have any problem calling it a genocide 😡😤
Because words have definitions for utility not for your melodramatics. You’ve failed the easiest litmus test we’ve ever been given. Sad.
Thank you Bernie for standing up for humanity you are Absolutely amazing God bless you and keep you safe ❤️🙏
"The only necessary thing for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing”.
Bernie 2024🇺🇸
Bernie Sanders 2028
We should write him in
Berne Sanders, you are standing up for Justice for Oppressed peoples Palestinians! Thanks for speaking the truth ❤❤❤
Thank you for doing your job and doing it well Sen. Sanders. I wish there were more in Congress like you.
The only dude whose not bought and paid for
Empty seats that speak of the state of morale in the US government.
Warmongers and worshippers of the mighty dollar 😂😂😂
No, it speaks to how little they think of us. Their morale is through the roof. They get to ruin our nation and get rich while not even doing their jobs. They think we're idiots, and every day we allow them to behave this way, we prove them right.
I wonder if most people believe in Christian values seeing what happening in GAZA.
@@luwibuchike5299what values. This is all happening because of your believing in fairy tales
@@Woosaidthat well not quite, the evil bastards that run the country do make good use of the religious though in their divisionist BS trying to divide everyone and stop them from gathering together and throwing their asses out
Keep fighting Senator Sanders! Love form Portugal! 🌹
God bless you Sanders. You’re a real hero having the bravery to tell the truth. Hope all people hear this and aware of that hell on earth made by modern dictators.
The college protesters understand this. What is wrong with our damn Senate and US President. What can we do, what can I, an old lady do? Even Bernie Sanders, Senator Sanders, cant wake them up. Thank you for trying. I am so depressed. This is so shameful that we continue to in this un American un accountable in humane policy.
We are not alone.
Congress has the best politicians money can buy. Most no longer represent the interests of their voters. It is depressing.
The Zionists own your Senate
Do what you can.
I leave comments to the POTUS and VPOTUS at Whitehouse.gov regarding the genocide being perpetrated by Israel, for whatever good that does. At least they know I’m very displeased with their actions and inactions and I consider their rhetoric empty and misleading.
My own Rep is often on the wrong side, due to being from a heavily gerrymandered state. So I financially support Representatives who are on the conscientious side on this and many other issues, even though they are not from my district, most not from my state. I do so for primary challengers I believe in, within my state and without, at all levels of government. I can’t give much each month, but every bit helps.
I also financially support aid groups and independent media channels who give air time to exposing the crimes being committed. People and groups like World Central Kitchen, MSF, UNRWA (I started that after the US government ceased its contributions and it became very obvious the allegations against it were unsubstantiated and very likely a pack of lies), Owen Jones, Democracy Now!, The Majority Report, The Guardian, and The Intercept. Even liking the videos they post and subscribing to their channels help them if you can’t give them money.
There are many who do more, often much more. Do what you can. It’s better than doing nothing.
I agree with EVERY BRILLIANT WORD THIS GREAT SENATOR SAID!!! CEASEFIRE!!!!!! STOP THE GENOCIDE!!!! THIS IS BARBARIC AND WE ARE GOING DOWN ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY!!!! SHAME!!! WE CAN DO BETTER!!!! WE MUST DO BETTER!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thank you for sharing and providing the evidence that American people need to understand what is happening as a result of Netanyahu's immoral war in Gaza.
Thank you for being literally the only one in our Congress to even mention the will of the American people. We elected them, you’d think they’d care what we think.
💙 love you, Bernie, always on the side of the American people🇺🇸
We need to stop paying for Wars all over the World. Hate to tell you but American Seniors need help! SNAP has been reduced while food prices climb. Low Income Housing for Seniors is scarce, certainly not enough for the number of Elderly who need housing!
I'll soon be 79, and cannot afford the US cost of living.
Disabled on Social Security at 46 and I'm experiencing the same. I hope support and abundance finds it's way to you!
Bernie supported Medicare for all. That lost my vote. Hilary supported universal health care and was working toward it in the 1990s. Newt Gingrich should’ve been shut up then. Bernie has a lot of good to say, but he would’ve gotten more votes if Medicare had been universal health care. Bible bangers and mega fundraisers support the Israel myth. Netanyahoo is a brain damaged nut
You’re both crying about a world you helped create. It’s weird like elections have consequences or something.
The the GOP policy to starve everyone. We can afford both.
@@LoveableLincoln32 why are you blaming them? They probably vote democrat. The GOP are the ones that dont want to help.
The fact the senate is mostly empty.... if I miss my job, I don't get paid. Why can Senators skip sessions?
Israel's control over U.S. gov is not what scares me, it's that some Americans still believe their BS.
Israel's control over the US gov saddens me.
The problem is if they listen to the mainstream media they are getting a distorted picture. For example the news radio in New York said the college demonstrations were antisemitic demonstrations.
@@nealclark4106 Many more places than New York radio. Almost everyone on MSM got that talking point at the same time and jumped on it.
@ajsingh1296
I think it's really about support by christian zionists, of which there are many more than jewish zionists.
Lot's
Funding a war hungry madman makes no sense.
just funding a USA proxy
Those comments by Israeli officials could have come from Hitler's regime itself.
You must be talking about Biden and the role he played in both the Russia/Ukraine war and the Israel/Palestine war, as well as doing everything in his power to provoke China into a war over Taiwan. He's a real-life psychopath.
Unless those funding are war hungry madmen using capitalism to create dominance
It makes even less sense to feed the madmans victims
I still want this man as my president
Thank you very much senator Sanders for always upholding the truth. You represent a good side of America 🇺🇸
Bernie, I just want you to know I disagreed with Chuck Schumer's comment after the vote today. He said that those who did not vote for the bill were "isolationists." Yes, there were some who are isolationists -- but your position is clear. Thank you for continuing to call out Natanyahu's failing on the issue of slaughtering the innocents in Gaza who cannot escape. It's so wrong.
I totally agree!
Thank you, Bernie, for your moral courage. Please never back down. You are my hero.
Thank you 🙏 you are a man with moral values, unlike the rest of them.

Stop funding this nightmare. Cut all the funds.
Lmao
"Cut all the funds" also implies that 98% of Congress don't get their AIPAC buyout money and that more people than seven Senators will actually represent _us_ instead of a _foreign nation._

Fighting genocide isn’t antisemitism. Its the law, internationally. I oppose Russia's action in the Ukraine that caused the deaths of tens of thousands of civilians. I am not anti-Russian. I am antI - genocide irrespective of who is committing the genocides.
I am currently watching Ken Burn's documentary on the holocaust and strangely enough I am relating to it because what is happening in Gaza by Israel as they concentrate populations for extermination. But Jews in general should not be a target. Many Jews find what is happening as abhorrent. My wife's Rabbi is raising funds to help the starving children of Gaza. But what is really going on here. Why is Israel acting like the Nazis?
The Israeli philosopher Yeshayahu Leibowitz introduced the term "Judeo-Nazis." He argued that continued military occupation of the Palestinian territories would lead to the moral degradation of Israeli Defense Force (IDF), with individuals committing atrocities for state security interests. In 1988, Holocaust survivor Yehuda Elkana warned that the tendency in Israel to see all potential threats as existential and all opponents as Nazis would lead to Nazi-like behavior by Jews. During the First Intifada, historian Omer Bartov was enraged by Yitzhak Rabin's call to "break the bones" of Palestinians and wrote him a letter arguing that, based on Bartov's research, the IDF could be similarly brutalized as the German Army was during World War II. One Israeli nationalist told Amos Oz that he did not care if Israel was called a Judeo-Nazi state, it was "better [to be] a living Judeo-Nazi than a dead saint." In 2018, Noam Chomsky cited Leibowitz, arguing that he was right in his prediction that the occupation was producing Judeo-Nazis.
The U.S. is Israel's greatest enemy, not HAMAS or any other terrorist group, for its unconditional support of Israel reducing it to become a spoiled child of the U.S., uncontrolled and brazen. Do not blame the IDF or even Israeli leaders, the culprit is U.S. blind support of Israel, and this support will eventually undermine Israel’s existence. @@lucapolidori8817
Supporting either side in this is wrong, they're both terrible. Your only support should be for the civilians of both sides.
@@peterleigh1281 The genocide of Palestinians is CREATING more hatred for Jews, and Americans (and Israel) than anything ever before. It is the STUPIDEST 'war' (it ISN'T a war. It's a genocide), in modern history.
Thank you for posting the list. (I have also been posting it wherever I can).
At times we think that humanity has died out in the USA, but when we hear voices like yours we have hope that honest and humane people are resisting Nazi Zionism. Thank you, Mr. Sanders!
It's going to be a grim day when he's no longer here fighting for us.
And this is why I'm not with any political party. The government as a whole doesn't care what we want and act only in their own interests. But thank you, Mr. Sanders for standing up for Palestinians and exposing Israel's atrocities. 😢🙏
The govt lets the DOD, Pentagon and 34 "intelligence" agencies determine policy. The military covertly rules, with consent by Congress.
I think it's a bit more shaded than that it's the Ultra right, nationalist that embrace the Religious fundamentalists who loath
even their own secular and moderate citizens. Sound familiar?
Netinyahou and Hamas are two arms of the same bird .. xenophobia and zealotry racism are the stock in trade of political and religious authoritarianism.
Netinyahou and his authoritarian govt was in deep trouble with the General population and ex service personnel before the Hamas attack. In fact stand off a little way and you can see that they effectively rescued each other but that's the standard modus operandi of political/ religious sectarianism. It remains a twisted nerve in the human species ... and once one side deploys it becomes .... well atrocity breeds atrocity.. on through time. This is a repeating phenomena. That's even without what we know about epigenetics.
As for weapons just think about the genocide that was fired up in Rwanda Africa between the Huthi and the Tutsi.. tens of thousands were killed tortured and masacred by their neighbours with hand tools men women and children... In the space of a week.
The only answer is to remove the instigators on both sides from the equation..Political Religious and social... and remove the propaganda triggers from future generations and let them see who, how and why certain individuals and groups always attempt to trigger that side of human nature.
Unless you can, get people to question, listen and think critically and from multiple perspectives, especially long term you are going to be constantly dealing with those who always see differences as a tool to control and empower themselves or their group.
There is also the growing pressures of population
growth in increasingly finite environments with failing life support. 🌍🧙🏼♂️
Thank you Senator, for highlighting the facts and taking a stand for all innocents.
Can we approve of Bernie, but disapprove of the rest of Congress??.. Thank you for your honesty.
Bernie gives me faith that America still has SOME good politicians left.
Only 1
Yes Bernie is the only sane voice
There were 3 Democrats and 15 Republicans who held on to their convictions, and refused to vote for the mind boggling $95 BILLION "foreign aid bill." The 3 Dems who voted against it were listed, but not the names of the 15 Republicans. I've been trying to find out who stood strong and didn't cave.
Thank you, Bernie.
After the vote today in the Senate for more weapons to reward and cause more war crimes and deaths of innocents, I find myself so forlorn, disappointed and losing faith in our Congress and government to both listen to the people and to make right and moral choices. Listening to you now makes me feel a little better, just knowing that you are there standing up, speaking truth, calling out your colleagues for this horrible policy, and giving voice for all of us whose wishes and opinions are being ignored by our own representatives.
We appreciate you, Bernie. Please never stop.
It is so refreshing to listen to someone speak so eloquently backed up with data and facts. Bernie deserved a shot at the presidency.
❤ You Bernie! You should have been president!! ❣️🇬🇧🏴
Dear Senator Mr. Sanders Sir, please continue to stand strong for us
This began in 1948, not October 7th.
YES ❗️❗️❗️
Not according to the mainstream media 🙄

It angers me that the Senator is speaking to a mostly empty room. All senators should be required to be present for all speeches, which are limited in time and rebuttals should be given. I want to see governance.
I imagine this is torture for you Bernie. I wish you didn't have to carry this burden. But very few are doing it and none are doing it as well as you. Thank you so much and I'm so sorry.
Thank you, Senator Sanders.
Mr. Sanders named some surprising truths here. Israel wanted Hamas to take full control of Gaza, splitting Palestinians in two regions, and imposed a blockade since 2007 to make sure they became two totally separate people. Along with taking parts of the West Bank, bit by bit, year after year.
@Baraz_Red Yes. And while we're distracted by Gaza, Yahu begins to infiltrate more of West Bank: Jabal Al Baba for instance.
He did and most of this is backed by Israeli media whilst the rest is seen in front of western cameras. But still the US State Dept are blind and deaf to this whilst at the same time taking everything Israel says as fact even when it is proved wrong.
Things I remember like they were yesterday become forgotten or distorted history so quickly...
@@christophergreen6595 My father who fought (on the 'wrong side') warned me about this. Back then, there was no internet or quick access to news. And the 'news' we watched was mainstream. He repeatedly warned me about the threat of zionism.
@@christophergreen6595 Ukraine on the MSM, just before 2022, was the most corrupt and poorest nation in Europe, criticized by all for its poor respect for human rights (see Gonzalo Lira for more information). As soon as the conflict with Russia broke out, it became a champion of democracy, praised by all, even if Zelensky canceled the presidential elections with the excuse of war.
In short, nothing new under the sun. The MSM is driven according to the convenience of those who are really in charge behind the scenes and Mr. Sanders is one of the few who tries to disprove them.
Bernie, thank you for your courage to speak the truth, and your continued dedication to humane action. 💙🙏🏼💙
Thank you Bernie for reflecting my sentiments and that of so many, actually most of us. I’m from Wisconsin , you Vermont, and yet you speak for me. I appreciate you addressing the nuances, supporting aid and defense to the victims, all of them, regardless of origin. Please keep it up. If we are heading into WWlll at least it will be known in all ‘future history’ that most humans wants peaceful solutions. I find great comfort in your leadership, thank you❤ May the light shine brightly.
Children grow up to be men and women and remember who their opresor was.

Not trying to offend but the orphan trains victims held no animosity. Many interviews of not just Jewish victims but yes, the designated scape goats..also, the live not fudged interviews of survivors held no animosity. Kinda amazing and a tribute to true victims without cause everywhere.
A circle of violence. It's why I say our government doing things wrong creates violence
A genocidal nation must not be supported with weapons, ammunition and money.
In Us, money for schools and education is more important than weapons.
Damn well should be!
Israel controls the corporations and America
We need more in Congress like You, who will Speak for US. Thanks, Bernie.
Thank you, probably the best politician in the Senate at the moment.
Thank you for putting all these facts of what is happening in Gaza in the Congressional record. No one in Congress can deny that they did not know of the genocide.
Absolutely true 💯💯💯
Yes . Documented for HISTORY . Who will pay ? WILL anyone pay ???? Genocide . Criminal human rights .
I have nothing but contempt for the federal government. They should get an F grade and be expelled immediately!
You need to mad about the republicans not voting for anything that would help the American people. The democrats have been trying to do things and have been trying to get republicans to help.
@@wokeperson5873you are wrong. Democrats are republican-lite
Why do we never see anyone in the room when politicians are giving these speeches? Such a broken system
Thank you Bernie
Well said Bernie, thanks for putting it on the record so succinctly for all time to come.
Thank you Senator for your hard efforts. Stay well.
Mr Senator Bernie Sanders Sir Thank You
Thank You Bernie for going above and beyond your job as a US Senator. You are amazing!! Senator Sanders, is the only US Politician to stand up against this war and clearly outline the atrocities taking place. God Bless you. Please keep up the Great Work you are doing.
