Go back and read the second page of it, last paragraph.
Basically she is claiming that people in her community were reacting with horror at the idea that she might cast a No vote to a near unanimous vote to fund something Israel can afford if it wanted to.
Further, she's claiming that her hand was forced because mean congress people rushed the vote. That had she had (in her words) a few hours to open communication, she could have addressed this. But that since everyone else abused process by rushing its vote, she had to placate the hysterical zionist voters.
This is obviously bullshit. It's especially obvious since she originally DID vote No until Pelosi had a word with her on the floor, at which point she changed it.
No, she says nowhere why she made the decision to change her vote from no to present, nor does she acknowledge having made that decision.
The obvious answer is that it's a result of pressure by the Zionist, pro-Israel lobby, which is particularly strong in NYC in particular.
And because American politics is fucking stupid and completely co-opted by Zionist interests, she can't even dare to mention that.
What has Jamaal Bowman said about his YES vote, btw?
Yas queen, love how you speak truth to power
:jesse-wtf:
That was sarcastically directed at AOC since yeah she's being an obscurantist shit, this is why I'm not a professional poster
