"When a senior American official lies to Congress in the middle of genocide so that the government can keep funding that genocide, he is deliberately flouting the law and prolonging the suffering of millions of innocent people."
“Secretary Blinken and the Biden administration ignored Israel’s blocking of humanitarian aid to the suffering people of Gaza—which is a violation of American law—and lied about it to Congress,” said Nihad Awad, national executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR). “When a senior American official lies to Congress in the middle of genocide so that the government can keep funding that genocide, he is deliberately flouting the law and prolonging the suffering of millions of innocent people who desperately need our government to stop funding their slaughter.”
“He must resign,” Awad added, “and the Biden administration must be held accountable for its violation of the law and its complicity in the Israeli genocide in Gaza.”
They’re either incompetent and need to resign, or intentionally broke the law and need to be held accountable in the court of law.
There’s no scenario where they should get to keep this up till January.
Held accountable by who, though? Administration officials lie to Congress all the time. Like, most of the time. Are they incompetent? Probably. Did they intentionally break the law? Does the pope shit in the woods? Will there be any repercussions? Almost certainly not. Would a Trump administration do any better? What the fuck kind of question is that? Why are you even asking all of these rhetorical questions? Why can’t you just stop and go back to work? Do you think this is funny? Can’t you tell that this has gone on far too long? Do you think it will come around and be funny if you just keep asking yourself questions instead of working on the project that’s already behind schedule while you type stupid comments on your phone?

Maybe.
