Code Pink's @medeabenjamin: Will you pray that Israel allows food trucks to enter Gaza?

(Lisa McClain -two sides to the story when it comes to starving children)

CODE PINK: Rep. Lisa McClain prays but her words ring hollow when she adds, “There are always two sides to the story.”

Two sides?

Saying “we’re all God’s children” means nothing if you won’t even speak out against Israel blocking food aid.

You can’t use prayer to mask complicity.

She's a Green Party Russian puppet. Not a Democratic Party member . . . as little respect for her as I do Rand Paul.

She’s very anti war and has been a great humanitarian leader when it comes to food for Palestinian and Cuban children. Everything is not black and white.

Although a member of Green Party, she is in contact with the Squad - standing up for them against Trump and often working with them.

My favorite Reps in Congress are Ro Khanna and Melanie Stanberry (my Rep here in NM - I’m definitely with the progressives in our Dem party)

Media continually thanks Ro Khanna for his anti war stance. If you search online - many prazes coming from Media to Ro. She has a strong alliance with the Squad - Media publicly praises and defends Summer Lee, Rashida Tlaib (meeting in person and backing Tiaib’s initiatives, shestrongly defended Cori Bush against AIPAC, has supported initiatives of Ilan Omar & visited with Ilan.

Black & white the world is NOT.

(We appreciate her trips to Gaza and now bringing food and medical supplies to Cuba. Also love her constant cornering Republicans in the halls of Congress. )

Medea - “ We're flying to Cuba with a plane full of medical aid & delegates to support the Cuban people in the face of the heinous US blockade.”

We are honored to call Congresswoman @RashidaTlaib our friend. Her unwavering courage and commitment to justice for Palestine inspire us every day.

“We stand with Rep. Tlaib, Omar, and Simon as they call for slashing the enormous Pentagon budget to fund basic programs for the American people.

Fund communities, not war!”

She threw Black.Americans under the bus. Prove me wrong.

She's no friend to us or the Latino/Latina community.
