The measure was a first-of-its-kind tapping into a decades-old law that would require the US state department to, within 30 days, produce a report on whether the Israeli war effort in Gaza is violating human rights and international accords. If the administration failed to do so, US military aid to Israel, long assured without question, could be quickly halted.

Those senators must be pretty confident that a report would find human rights violations. Why would they oppose it otherwise?

I saw a Prius on the road the other day that had a decal on the back with big block letters proclaiming, “NOT A LIBERAL”. I wouldn’t’ve noticed a random Prius driving down the road, but they just had to call attention to themselves to let everyone know their political leanings. I figure it’s more to let their conservative friends know that they’re still an asshole even if they got a more eco-friendly vehicle.

I like the discussion this has generated around toxicity and professionalism, but I’m still very amused by the fact that he censored himself in the last line after not doing so for the rest of the message.
