State Department official resigns after Biden administration says Israel not blocking Gaza aid
A career State Department official resigned from her post on Tuesday, saying she could no longer work for the Biden administration after it released a report concluding that Israel was not preventing the flow of aid to Gaza.
Stacy Gilbert, who served as a senior civilian-military advisor to the State Department's Bureau of Population, Refugees and Migration (PRM), sent an email to staff saying she was resigning because she felt the State Department had made the wrong assessment, The Washington Post reported, citing officials who read the note.
The report was filed in response to President Joe Biden issuing a national security memorandum (NSM-20) in early February on whether the administration finds credible Israel's assurances that its use of US weapons do not violate either American or international law.
The report said there were reasonable grounds to believe Israel on several occasions had used American-supplied weapons "inconsistent" with international humanitarian law, but said it could not make a definitive assessment - enough to prevent the suspension of arms transfers.
Idk if anyone is saying they'll vote for trump over Biden because they think he will be better for genocide or for people in the states.
Saying Biden and the Democrats are enabling genocide and watching it happen is not the same thing as saying "we will vote for trump"
It's calling out people and hoping they do better.
But I guarantee you if Biden loses the election this November, all the pieces will be about why black and brown and Muslim voters didn't come out, rather than examining why an absolutely massive proportion of white people vote for trump and the Republicans at every turn even though they're destroying the country.
Oh they'll blame all the demographics they can. The youths. "Progressives". I doubt they'd go so far as to blame "wokeism" but I imagine some other made up demographic would apparate.
I mean I'm voting Biden in the fall, swing state and all. But still, The DNC needs a lot of overhaul for sure.
To be fair, the Muslims would have a pretty good excuse.
