Rep. Jamie Raskin, who spends all day and night trying to accuse Republicans of being Russian stooges, decided to go ahead and join with Iranian stooges to attack Israel.
Alongside Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, and, having sunk so low, Rep. Nancy Pelosi, Rep. Raskin signed on to a letter demanding that Biden “withhold any offensive weapons transfers” to Israel.
Such a move, coming as Iran may be preparing to launch an attack on Israel is a gift to Iran. And incidentally to its ally Russia, which Rep. Raskin has pretended to oppose all these years only as a front for attacking non-leftists.
In a press release, after an airstrike killed members of Jose Andres’ ‘aid group’ who were allegedly accompanied by an armed escort, Rep. Jamie Raskin quoted Andres’ who falsely accused Israel of “indiscriminate killing”. Then Rep. Raskin concluded with a call for a ceasefire which would allow Hamas to go on killing Israelis.
While people tend to pay more attention to Rep. Raskin for his political witch hunts aimed at opponents, he’s been attacking Israel’s campaign against Hamas for some time now while calling for a “ceasefire”.
Even right after Oct 7, Rep. Raskin’s statement warned Israel not to go too aggressively after Hamas.
In a truly extraordinary statement, Rep. Raskin argued that Israel should reward and encourage the Hamas use of human shields, contending that, “the knowledge that a terrorist enemy displays spectacular disrespect for the lives of civilians—by such means as using them as ‘human shields’ for embedded soldiers—imposes an obligation of extra care not to kill civilians who are being used in this way.”
This is who Rep. Raskin has always been, but the mask is increasingly coming off.
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries asked Raskin to represent the Democratic caucus in defending Tlaib on the House floor against a GOP-led effort to censure the congresswoman, and in the end, Raskin’s allegiance to the Constitution won out.
It was never about the Constitution. It was about Rep. Raskin’s leftist politics which include hatred of America and Israel.

I don’t think “leftist” adequately describes Raskin, who, unfortunately, is my Congressional representative. His parents were the founders of the Institute for Policy Studies which never found a communist regime it didn’t like. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

Communist or national socialist regime, no difference.

True to bad form.

Gee. Is it time to check in on how those hostages held captive by Hamas and enslaved by Gazan families are doing? No?
Well….in that case, I think Raskin and all pro Hamas politicians should truck themselves into Gaza lickety split so they can contribute to the humanitarian effort in a more meaningful, personal, concrete way: Don’t just talk the talk. Walk the walk, find all the hostages and bring them all, dead and alive, out of Gaza.
Think of how much food those hostages are preventing the Gazans from consuming. Those hostages are starving the Gazans.
Or, better yet, have the politicians replace the hostages by substituting one politician for each of the living hostages and hostage corpses. That will surely be the grandest, selfless humanitarian gesture of all and guarantee reelection, or, at least, posthumous recognition.

How about No More Money for the United Nations cutting them off by 100% and evicting them from our soil period

Just another traitor working for islamists.
Islam in Arabic means surrender. To defeat it the motto should be Never Surrender to any demands the muslims make.
They are like cancer eating up anywhere they invade bit by bit. A good “immune system” can defeat their purpose.
Islamophobia is the shield the muslims created to protect themselves from any criticism of their evil intentions. That’s the first thing which needs to go. How? by simply upholding the God given right we have: Freedom of Speech over islamic censorship.

Ratskin is a real disgusting judenrat along with Scummer and pencil neck.
Algorithmic Analyst says
What’s that rag on his head for? That seems to be the new style in California.
danknight says
Can we trade Ratskin for some of the hostages? …
… I mean the hostages held by Hamas, of course …
… but I would settle for a some J6 hostages …
Just sayin’
…
Oh, and G-d bless the IDF troops in Gaza … may the Lord grant them swift victory
… cause they need to win before our Selection …

Somebody needs to call Animal Control on Raskin.
