      Not just sleeping.

      Pelosi herself accused protesters advocating for this exact thing of being “paid by Putin” back when it was “just” tens of thousands of Palestinian civilians and hundreds of Israel-critical journalists being murdered by the fascist apartheid regime…

      True, however, when you’re asking for political change you don’t refuse the help of politicians switching sides. Especially senior ones, because they may be doing a trial balloon. And if the public refuses them they won’t see an upside to continuing that change. Instead they will retreat and focus on their base. So on the off chance this is a real attempt to shift policy we should be nicer to her for a minute. Show the mainstream democrats that we’re willing to vote for them if they meet us.
