Democrats Skip Netanyahu's Speech

 Lord help us if the Democrats stay in control of the White House for another 4 years.  If they do they will take us further down the road of cursing Israel.  If you make a list of politicians who hate Israel and would just as soon stand with the Hamas supporters, you'll find they are all Democrats.

Please understand that I don't believe Trump as President will save America, but if Trump does make it into the White House he could delay our coming implosion for a few more years.

Elon Musk made a surprise appearance in Washington Wednesday for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress, attending the event as Netanyahu’s guest.

Musk sat in Netanyahu’s private box in the visitors gallery above the House floor, alongside Netanyahu’s wife Sara, several Israeli soldiers and at least one former hostage of Hamas.

The Tesla Motors CEO’s visit to Capitol Hill came a day after he announced on X that his satellite internet company Starlink had been activated in a Gaza hospital, with the support of Israel and the United Arab Emirates.

Nine months into the Israel-Hamas war and the resulting humanitarian crisis in Gaza, Netanyahu’s speech has become a lightning rod of controversy, triggering an eruption of protests in Washington.

Shortly before Netanyahu was scheduled to begin speaking, U.S. Capitol Police announced they were “deploying pepper spray” against protesters who had “started to become violent” close to the Capitol.

Netanyahu scolded the protesters in his speech, calling them “Iran’s useful idiots.”

“These protesters chant from river to the sea, but many don’t have a clue what river and what sea they’re talking about.” Netanyahu said.

More than 30 members of Congress did not attend Netanyahu’s address, many of them skipping the event in protest of the Israeli prime minister’s approach to the Israel-Hamas war.

One of Netanyahu’s most vocal opponents in Congress, however, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., did attend the speech. At several points, Tlaib held up a sign that read “War Criminal.” The clear breach of House decorum reflects the deep and painful divisions in Congress over the prime minister’s leadership.

Though Harris attributed her Wednesday absence to travel, many of the at least 30 lawmakers said they skipped the speech to boycott Netanyahu. Several, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said they would instead meet with families of hostages held by Hamas or attend a panel on Middle East peace and security.

“Netanyahu should not be welcomed into the United States Congress. On the contrary, his policies in Gaza and the West Bank and his refusal to support a two-state solution should be roundly condemned,” said Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., among the loudest critics of Netanyahu as the war carries on.

Wednesday’s speech was Netanyahu’s fourth address to Congress, the last of which took place in March 2015.

While the Prime Minister is on Capitol Hill, he will meet with the top four congressional lawmakers: House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y.

Kamala wasn't there but we will give her a pass as she's now busy running for President.  J.D. Vance wasn't there either because of travel/campaign reasons.
