House Dems Brainstorming How To Spoil Netanyahu’s Speech to Congress: Report
15th June 2024
House Democrats are brainstorming possible events to spoil Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress, according to an Axios report released Friday.
Many Democrats already said they would boycott the speech, but they are now developing “counter-programming” events to spoil the speech and demonstrate their dissatisfaction with the leader of the Jewish state and the way he’s waged war against Hamas in Gaza.
Some of the ideas Democrats have proposed reportedly include a press conference, a vigil, and an event with the families of Israeli hostages who believe Netanyahu is not doing enough to secure their release.
