    For some, that time is coming. Come nov 2026 midterms all class 2 senators are up for reelection (and then class 3 in 2028). While there are more Republicans up at that point than Democrats, the strategy will be the same, and many of those Republican seats seem pretty safe.

      And Republicans will never allow the Senate to vote on arms supply to Israel. It’s really that simple.

        Yep. And trolls will paint this as “both sides the same.” I wonder if Trump will get a “genocide” moniker?
