Anybody who says this hasn't heard Dore Stein on KALW during his Gaza Corner segment of Tangents--and he provides useful links besides.

@toyman0806
Fundamentalism divides the world into 'Us' & 'Them' and then demonizes 'Them'
It's the most dangerous idea abroad in our world, & #BernieSanders is right to call it outSanders has spoken more forcefully & publicly against the #Israeli atrocity on #Gaza than any Jewish person in America

I so wish we'd elected him when we had the chance

It's Time to Stop Simply Asking #Israel to Do the Right Thing
#BERNIESANDERS
Jan 27, 2024

..."For months, the United States government has pleaded with Israel to take urgent steps to avoid further civilian death. But despite these requests, including from President Biden himself, #Netanyahu has done nothing.

That has to change now. Tens of thousands of lives hang in the balance, and every day matters.
...

As part of that effort, I have tried to force what I consider to be a very modest step in the US Senate: a resolution requiring the state department to report on any human rights violations that may have occurred in Israel’s military campaign in Gaza. The resolution is based on longstanding US law requiring that any security assistance or military equipment provided to any country be used in line with internationally recognized human rights.

Sadly, only 11 senators voted for this first congressional effort to hold Israel accountable, but the momentum is shifting. More and more Americans – and more elected officials – understand that we cannot continue turning a blind eye to the suffering in Gaza. Given the scale of the disaster unfolding with American bombs and military equipment, Congress must act.

Prime Minister Netanyahu recently said, while rejecting a two-state solution, that “the prime minister needs to be able to say no, even to our best friends”. Well, now is the time for the United States to say NO to Netanyahu.

Congress is now considering a supplemental bill with another $14bn in military aid for Israel. The United States must make it clear to Netanyahu that the we will not provide another dollar to support his inhumane, illegal war. We must use our leverage to demand an end to the indiscriminate bombing, a humanitarian ceasefire to allow aid to flow to those who are suffering and to secure the release of the more than 130 hostages still being held in Gaza. And we must demand that the Israeli government take steps to lay the groundwork for a two-state solution.

The United States must stop asking Israel to do the right thing. It’s time to start telling Israel it must do these things or it will lose our support."...

It's Time to Stop Simply Asking Israel to Do the Right Thing

Gaza's humanitarian crisis is not a natural disaster. It's the direct result of choices made by political leaders, none more than Benjamin Netanyahu.

‘It will be the end of #democracy’: #BernieSanders on what happens if #Trump wins – and how to stop him
Ed Pilkington

..."It may not happen on day one, he says. Trump wouldn’t be as obvious as to abolish elections. But he would steadily weaken democracy, making it harder for young people and people of colour to vote, enervating political opposition, whipping up anger against minorities and immigrants.

A second Trump presidency would be much more extreme than the first. “He’s made that clear,” says Sanders. “There’s a lot of personal bitterness, he’s a bitter man, having gone through four indictments, humiliated, he’s going to take it out on his enemies. We’ve got to explain to the American people what that means to them – what the collapse of American democracy will mean to all of us.”

He doesn’t ascribe the rise of Trump solely to a lumpen mass of redneck working-class Americans, deplorables to borrow a phrase. “I do not believe that all of Trump’s supporters are racist or sexist or homophobes. I think what’s going on in this country is a belief that the government is failing ordinary Americans.”
...
Sanders has plenty of nice things to say about Biden. In the book he praises the president’s 2020 campaign platform, saying that if it had all been put into effect, he would have been the most progressive president since Franklin D Roosevelt. (The compliment is in part self-serving – Sanders credits himself with having pushed Biden further to the left in the run-up to the election.) He also applauds Biden’s decision to join a picket line during the recent auto workers strike, the first sitting president in history to do so.

But as we enter election year, he warns that there is much more to be done. “Look, the president has put a historic amount of money into transforming our energy system away from fossil fuels, but the fossil fuel industry keeps on its merry way, and we’re not stopping them. The president is making efforts to take on the greed of the pharmaceutical industry, but it’s nowhere near enough. He tried to lower student debt; it was reversed by the supreme court.”

Sanders suddenly leans towards me and gives me a blast of rhetoric that is almost overpowering.

“The president has got to acknowledge the enormous crises facing people’s lives. You can’t fool them. If I say to you all the great things I’ve done for you, you will come back and say, ‘Well, I can’t afford healthcare, I can’t send my kid to college.’ Americans are feeling anxious right now, and we’ve got to address that.”
...
“There’s no question. The polling is clear. Given the choice between Biden and Trump, there are a lot of people saying, ‘Thank you, but no thank you.’”

It’s a strikingly different analysis from that offered by much of the commentariat, which has lasered in on Biden’s age. Which is interesting, because Sanders, at 82, is a year older than the president yet rarely gets labelled as old. If anything, he comes across as ageless – as crotchety and energetic as he’s ever been."...

Rail Workers Betrayed By Biden & The “Squad”

by #KshamaSawant

https://www.socialistalternative.org/2022/12/02/rail-workers-betrayed-biden-the-squad/

'A win for #rail-workers would have been a win for #workers all over the #US who are increasingly ground down by #overwork, and by the knowledge that they are #living-to-work, not #working-to-live. A #socialist cannot be a #strike-breaker. This needs to be the end of any pretense by #DSA that the “ #Squad” is socialist, and should result in their #expulsion from the #organization. Failing that, the Squad’s #betrayal of the #working-class becomes DSA’s betrayal.'

Rail Workers Betrayed By Biden & The “Squad"

When AOC and other members of the “Squad” were first elected, most of them did so as self-identified “democratic socialists.” They ran on working-class platforms that included Medicare for All and a federal $15 minimum wage, vowing they would be...

Meanwhile... (from The Guardian FWIW)... some perspective on the recent US "climate bill" embedded in a "IRA" (inflation) act...
Not a surprise for social advocates nor Bernie followers, but a clear statement of what still needs attention, along with a call (which may in fact be in motion) for Congress' Dems to acknowledge what's left to do AND take a bow for doing anything. Time will tell.
