That quote something about democracy has a lot of problems but it’s the best system we have. Gotta make them care what we think- because it’s how you get elected. But the problems are corporate owned media being pressured to support fellow corporates and their terrible terrible fear that all their billions might not be “enough”
Correct....the war crimes are beyond shocking and to think 1/2 the population subject to this insane evil are CHILDREN....my head is spinning at that information
I Stand In Solidarity With Senator Sanders. He's Absolutely Right When It Comes To The Warmongering Netanyahu, IDF And The Extreme Right Wing Party of His Government.
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.
@@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
So you are saying that Cuba, Venezuela, and China are success stories. Authoritarianism across the board. Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and the Netherlands have rolled back their socialistic agendas because, though it sounds great on paper, IT DOES NOT WORK. It results in poverty, totalitarianism, and stagnant economies. Why do think the Soviet Union no longer exists? Why do you think Gaza and the other Muslim countries are so poor? Centralized power. It breeds discontent.
God bless you Senator B. Sanders for being supportive of the righteous and innocent people. Thank you so much for defending the rights of Palestinians.
exactly. Arabs are more semitic than Jews from ukraine and poland.. the Genocide of the Palestinian people constitute anti-sematic at the highest order.
You mean anti-Zionist and anti -Jew. Semitism refers to the laguages spoken, including Arabic and Hebrew. This term as it is being used is a non sequiter. Israel is using this term on purpose to muddy the water so we can't clearly say, we are not against the Jewish people but against the actions of the racist Zionist state's behavior and structure which gives Jews expanded rights over all others to the point of enslaving and dehumanizing Palestinians.
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!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@pastelle_music How he would represent the minority of American people who supports his mindset and ideas at out of US Congress if he had left Democratic party? He wouldn't be elected.
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
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. 🌍🧙🏼♂️
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's been getting darker in the U.S. Congress every Day. This is a voice in the wilderness. Thank you for speaking Truth Again Bernie! Let the Sun Shine In!!!🌞☮️🌍
Thank you Bernie for saying what NO ONE else is willing to say! God bless you for being the only Humane senator in Congress!!! Bernie for President!!!!
@@CaptBeefart1 Well you are entitled to your opinion and I’ll leave there. There’s enough fighting and division in the world already and I’m not about to add to it.
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.
It's clear Congress no longer work for the People. We need to clean house in Congress on both sides of the political spectrum. Thank you for standing up for the Palestinian people and against the genocide. I hope this makes people get more involved in elections for Congress and stop the status quo. We can no longer vote along party lines. It is about the candidate not the party. We must stop electing people who are funded by the large lobbies - AIPAC, MIC, big pharma, etc.
Hi A, it is a terrifying sight......no wonder the world is being destroyed. If this was a film it would look to unreal and every time Bernie speaks it is the same empty chamber
HAMAS AND ISRAEL NEED TO DECIDE TO STOP THEIR WAR!!!! “WE….. ARE NOT “SLAUGHTERING”……ANYONE!!!!! JUST LIKE I NEVER OWNED A SLAVE AND MY PARENTS OR MY GRAND PARENTS NEVER OWNED SLAVES….. I DONT OWE…ANYONE….SHIT! FOH!!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Incredible! A politician who stands for what the people actually want! Can you imagine the great country we could have if others in the US government cared about the Americans people, even half as much as this dude does!?
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.
@cg4806, what are you thanking him for exactly? He gave your (probably) very passionate vote away to Hillary Clinton and Joe Biden. Also, upon giving your vote away twice. He requested and fought for nothing in return for it!
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.
@@dennisreed3382 I know it is (understandably) difficult but if you want to be taken seriously by intelligent people who aren't in the thrall of extreme emotions you'll have to tone down the hyperbole. That statement won't change anyone's mind but you probably know that.
Great respect for Bernie- thank you for your service to the public and expressing what many of the people in the US believe and want. A True leader with a conscience.
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.
@@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.
Yeah really America trying to bully another country to give up their rights to a successful idea claiming it could cause spies what a joke congress is full of shit lol
@@nietzschebietzsche Sorry to tell you, but that status quo trajectory ain't changing anytime soon with the group of clowns we have running the show. This current crop of politicians would make Barnum and Baily jealous.
What happened has to do with the loosing of election campaign financing laws and regulations. It’s not enough to be decent and trustworthy. Now-a-days you basically need to be a millionaire (or a billionaire), with millionaire friends, one or more billionaire backers, a few multinational mega-corporations, a superPAC fund and the right special interest groups like AIPAC and the energy and defense industry behind you and be a party player to win an election. If not, and you somehow manage to win an election, your colleagues will find other places to be when it’s your turn to speak or to put a bill forward.
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!
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.
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.
How come both democrats and republicans can’t pass a single bill and vote along party lines when it comes to border, abortiion, student loans, health, jobs, but when it comes to funding Israel or send weapons they both vote overwhelmingly in bipartisan
Well... When you continually run - in this day & age - as an avowed member of the Socialist Party, you KNOW he's not going to gain any traction. And you know something else? Bernie has been WAY too smart not to know it himself. Makes me wonder how long he's been deliberately working this angle. By now, like most pols who have made careers for themselves in the House, Bernie has made friends w/just abt everybody it's worth being friends with! Bernie, being a lifelong Socialist, knows "how much is enough", I believe. This is enough for him. Up there in VT, deep in the R.e. mkt, that's pretty good.
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.
Because he does not fit the mould. He speaks out against Zionism and that is a big no no when it comes to getting elected. All the people in power are protecting their cash cow Israel and retirement slush funds. If you recall he was democratic front runner 2016 and the Zionist had control of the DNC. This is easily verifiable in DNC records!
Because about 70% of voters don’t understand that tax funded public goods and welfare is good …. For self and others. That’s not an ism, it’s a MF fact.l
The short answer is Obama went all in for Biden after South Carolina, made some deals with other Democrat candidates, and coalesced more support around Biden for super Tuesday. Without Buttigeig and Klobuchar dropping when they did, good chance Bernie would've gained enough delegates to swing the nomination
Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $12,000 and got my payout of m $270,500 every months,God bless Chloe Linda Henderson🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..
After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states 🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my son's surgery (Oscar). Glory to God.shalom.
Wow that's nice She makes you that much!! please is there a way to reach her services, I work 3 jobs and trying to pay off my debts for a while now!! Please help 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.
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.
Shame on you Bernie. Selling out your own people. Israel is fighting a war every democratic and Christian country should be fighting along side with Israel 🇮🇱. 911 & Pearl Harbor? Americans killed on our soil. Remember? Best to fight our enemies over there. Not have our streets flow with blood and our families raped and slaughtered. Intelligence tells you, the enemies of Israe, & Ukraine are our enemies. Bernie is clueless. Senile old man.
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.
We also need to change our foreign policies that look out for " American interests" -- these policies only protect corporate elitists profits and care nothing about lives lost
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 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.
