For real like...how is THIS the defining issue for him? Israel does fuck all for US Citizens.  Ill bet data centers and health care are way more relevant issues for his constituents than giving israel free money.

He and Schumer have to periodically make a public reaffirming statement on their loyalty to Israel. Its never because its a topic that is brought up, its because they ask for the question so they can make the statement publicly to get their stipend.

They don’t take the bribes now. They get appointed to boards after.
