If you can’t see the difference between GOP and Dems, or think Dems are complicit in Israel’s retaliation on Hamas you need some serious help.

Biden is literally going around Congress to give weapons to Israel while he's pretending to admonish Netanyahu.

Not all Dems are like that, of course. There are some real good ones like Rashida Tlaib, AOC, Bernie, ... who speak up for the truth. But the majority of Dems also just voted to give Israel more billions for weapons.

The first 2 years of Biden's reign saw Dem control of House and Senate. Where was the bill to protect abortion rights?

Not one of those Senators you claim are good have passed any meaningful legislation. Especially Bernie. Anyone can sit in Congress and pontificate and bloviate as they do. Not everyone can get stuff done.
