    visible-disgust zionist scum, she will kill our trans palestinian siblings gleefully

    Delaware state Sen. Sarah McBride, a leading Democratic candidate for Delaware’s only House seat, framed herself as a staunch supporter of Israel and the U.S.-Israel relationship, as well as a committed fighter against antisemitism, in a recent interview with Jewish Insider — a position that could place her on more solid footing with the pro-Israel community than Delaware’s current House member.

    McBride, a state senator since 2021 who previously worked on Democratic political campaigns and in the Obama White House with a focus on LGBTQ advocacy, is running for the at-large House seat being vacated by Rep. Lisa Blunt Rochester (D-DE), who is mounting a bid to be the state’s next senator.

    McBride — known on the national stage as the first openly transgender state senator in U.S. history, an ally of fellow Delawarean President Joe Biden and a 2016 Democratic National Convention speaker — established herself as an early front-runner, with a $414,000 fundraising haul in her first month in the race. She now faces challengers in Delaware State Treasurer Colleen Davis and Delaware State Housing Authority Director Eugene Young.

      Oh shit this is awful 😣

      I didn’t know much about her but thought it was at least kinda good news a trans person was elected to congress. The fact she’s so pro-Israel makes me deeply sad.
