The House approved a resolution backing Israel and condemning Hamas on Wednesday, the first piece of legislation to clear the lower chamber in more than three weeks because of the extended Speaker stalemate.
The legislation, which spans four pages, was the first measure approved under the leadership of Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who clinched the gavel hours before the chamber voted on the resolution. He succeeded former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) in the position after the California Republican was ousted from the top job earlier this month.
The House approved the resolution in a 412-10-6 vote, a strong show of support for Israel after Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on the U.S. ally Oct. 7, massacring more than 1,000 civilians in the south of the country, kidnapping more than 200 and raining thousands of rockets down across the country.
The why doesn’t matter. The end result is simply an observation.
That is an assumption. And the only way it would make sense is if AOC would be willing to compromise her positions in the hopes it will get her a higher office.
It does not mean that the only reason she stuck to her morals is she isn’t running for higher office.
Maybe you meant something else, but that’s not what you typed.
Again, the why doesn’t matter. The result is that a partisan Democratic base now has a reason not to like her in a primary.
It matters because you made an assumption that discredited her and presented it as obvious facts.
The only reason I’m still trying to explain is this is important to understand in every facet of communication. If you just misspoke, no big deal it happened to me yesterday too. But it’s concerning if you don’t see the issue
It doesn’t matter because by the time she reaches a primary the only consideration is if she voted for the measure or not… Not any ideological reason you come up with.
