Netanyahu to address Congress, House Speaker Mike Johnson says
Johnson had previously said he would invite Netanyahu to the House regardless of whether Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer agreed to a joint invitation.
Sure, let us hear what the war criminal has to say. What a horror show
Carlson gave Putin a platform. I see a trend forming.
Carlson’s interview was the worst propaganda piece I’ve seen from the right yet. He fanboyed so hard, he didn’t even realize that he agreed with Putin’s assertion that eastern Poland belonged to Russia. Putin himself called the interview a disappointment due to Tucker’s lack of challenging questions.
Then he goes and gushes over a “Russian” grocery store that was actually a French chain in Russia. He first jabbed at the homeless when he encountered a coin operated shopping cart. At the end, he boasted about how he easily bought groceries at such a low cost compared to the US, neglecting to realize that he spent 20% of a Russian’s monthly income on a week’s worth of food.
It was an embarrassment.
Forming?
…in a country that houses multiple war criminals, even as presidents.
So, it's totally on brand.
I think Miami or just Florida as a whole has the highest concentration of deposed dictators in the world.
let republicans expose themselves as pro war war mongers in an election year.
They've exposed themselves as war mongers for decades and it hasn't harmed them at all. What makes you think it'll be different this year?
Hope he flies a boeing
After taking a Bell 212 helicopter to the airport.
Can we get Harrison Ford as pilot? Love the man, but he keeps crashing his planes so it just seems like a good match.
I don't think you guys can suck Israel's cock any harder just by inviting him over.
Hahaha.
There are a lot of war criminals there to keep him company though.
“Tonight, I’m happy to announce something else to you: that we will soon be hosting Prime Minister Netanyahu at the Capitol for a joint session of Congress,” Johnson said in a speech marking Israel’s independence, hosted by the Israeli Embassy.
“This will be a timely and, I think, a very strong show of support to the Israeli government in their time of greatest need,” he added.
And a show of hostility towards the tens of thousands of civilians Israel has already killed, and the millions more who are currently being starved and bombed by Israel's genocidal actions.
I say we call netanyahu antisemitic. He is doing such a shit job that it's bringing down the country's entire standing.
Ackchyually, he technically is. Semites, though now a defunct term, applied to any people that spoke a Semitic language.Arabs, Phoenicians, Jews, etc. It's only after WW2 people erroneously assumed it meant just Jewish people—due to certain events at the time—and the term remained alive and evolved that way.
So in a traditional sense, Little Ben is becoming his own Little Hitler.
International war criminal to come get pats on the back says unconditional supporter of domestic insurrectionist and life-long criminal.
No one's done more damage to Israel than Bibi
😲 Arrest this antisemite!! //Bibi
The republiQans are inviting him over, eh?
And again, dead silence from the ‘biden genocide’ trollwaffen
Guys, vote for us again and we promise we'll stop him next time.
Edit: don't forget Biden called it outrageous that the ICC has labelled Netanyahu a war criminal.
Any more of those Bell 212 helicopters laying around to transport him around; preferably close to a mountain range?
Made in the U.S.A.!
So fucked it is even happening but at least we should get a good picture over which members of Congress are devotees to a foreign power so we can never vote for them again.
They are easy to spot, look for an (D- ) or an (R- ) behind their name.
Go home
BoTh SiDeS aRe ThE sAmE!!!!@
I mean, Biden could choose to arrest him when he steps foot in the US, in accordance with international law, but he's too busy enabling him, so on this issue, unfortunately, they're not that different.
On most other issues: sure they're different, but Biden really is doing everything he can to turn off decent people that oppose genocide.
hope the majority of congress critters don't show up.
Congress should have a theme for this. "Warcrime Wednesdays"?
I'm looking forward to it. It could really give some insight into what the plan is for after the Rafah offensive. I hope some lawmakers are brave enough to ask tough questions about the ending of the war.
If I had the time/money to get myself to DC when he's there, I'd deck myself out in all my Magen David jewelry and a big fat "fuck you, Bibi" sign.
About time they invite the leader of America to congress.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
WASHINGTON — House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., announced Thursday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will address a joint session of Congress.
Johnson told reporters Wednesday that he was working with Netanyahu on a date and would be sending the formal invitation this week.
Johnson made the announcement in his keynote address for the Israeli Embassy event, which took place at the National Building Museum.
Several other lawmakers attended the program, and House Democratic Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar of California also spoke.
Earlier in March, Schumer delivered a fiery speech blasting Netanyahu, saying he had "lost his way" and calling for new elections in Israel.
President Joe Biden later praised Schumer's speech, saying "expressed a serious concern, shared not only by him but by many Americans."
