Comment on When the Democrats regain power, their centrist leadership will claim, "We can't do anything because...". Don't be fooled. We need to get the corporate centrists out and real progressives in!

    Yes that’s correct, you don’t need the Senate’s permission to sell things

      In this case, selling “things”, in this case weapons that were actively being used for genocide, is against the Leahy law.

      Funny how any excuse will stop centrist democrats from helping workers, but actual law won’t stop them from their only goal in life.

        Good thing that it’s not a genocide, according to the UN definition and the ICJ, or some people might really be in trouble
