@btnewsroom: Voters just delivered a clear rebuke of war in the midterms. So why won’t their representatives answer a single question about it? BT’s Rania Khalek spent the day on Capitol Hill, where House lawmakers from both parties ducked, dodged, and power-walked away from her questions about arming Israel’s genocide and funding Trump’s war on Iran. When confronted on whether "progressive" Democrats should back Hakeem Jeffries for Speaker – whether he wouldn't prefer leadership aligned with his views on Israel and health care – Mark Desaulnier (D-CA) asked Khalek for suggestions. Highlights also include Joe Wilson’s (R-SC) unhinged talking points that Iran microwaves babies and Israel’s destruction and occupation of Christian villages in southern Lebanon is “good – to liberate them.”
