We thank our Senators @markey.senate.gov and Warren for heeding the calls of their constituents and voting to block arms sales to Israel. Tonight’s 18 votes for the JRD, in defiance of AIPAC and President Biden’s personal lobbying efforts, show that the tide is turning.
18 senators in total voted for the first of three of Sanders's resolutions to block arms sales to Israel:

Durbin, Heinrich, Hirono, Kaine, King, Lujan, Markey, Merkley, Murphy, Ossoff, Sanders, Schatz, Shaheen, Smith, Van Hollen, Warnock, Warren, and Welch.

I've read a lot of cli-fi that reckons with legacies of racial violence and colonization through fantasy tropes but didn't expect one of my favorites to be written by George A. Romero (of Night of the Living Dead fame). Anyone else reading Pay the Piper?? I'll read any book with a swamp tbh
