In Congress it seems that "The Squad" might have seen some polling, because there have been some pivots taking place three weeks after the Hamas terrorist attacks in Israel.
Here's what Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had to say yesterday:
Now more than ever, we must emphasize the importance of separating people from governments.
— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) October 30, 2023
Antisemitism is disgusting and unacceptable. We have a responsibility to defend our Jewish brothers, sisters, and siblings from hatred. No movement of integrity should tolerate it. Ever.
AOC's fellow Squad-member, Rep. Cori Bush, also tried to backpedal a little bit. Here's what she claimed yesterday:
This month, I cosponsored a resolution condemning Hamas for hostage-taking and urging their immediate release.
— Congresswoman Cori Bush (@RepCori) October 30, 2023
We must ensure the safe return of all hostages and the protection of Palestinian and Israeli civilians.
Really?
The above tweet got called out in a hurry:
Did you forget about the existence of Community Notes? You make it so easy for them.

This could be the most brutal Community Note from X that we've ever seen:

Community Notes is the best thing to happen to Twitter(X) since Elon Musk bought the place.
