    Explain why Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib voted differently. What's their position, do you think?

    This isn't about the whole bill, she voted against a specific amendment to the bill that would remove military aid to Israel.

    • How does that help end the war?

    • Why did those other members of the Squad vote for the amendment?

    • How does that help her voters who now mostly oppose sending military aid to Israel?

    No she admits that she voted to send weapons to Israel in this very tweet.

    Vote is here.

    A lot of cope going on. Interesting too because most other platforms like Bluesky and Twitter fully realize what is going on and call AOC out.
