Thank you! I always appreciate your start-to-finish coverage of events like this. That said, Rep. Magaziner is a huge disappointment as to where he "stands" on so many key issues. His waffling on the two House ICE resolutions is sadly typical. "... but EVERYbody was voting yes!!!" is not a justification. Nor is "... only symbolic." Actually, what it symbolizes is Magaziner's utter lack of political courage, not to say his performative public interfaces where he is in control. I wrote to him, called his office and contacted him on Instagram to PLEAD for him to join the 11 Reps (ELEVEN!!!) who simply supported the right of the Madleen crew to bring aid to Gaza - perhaps we might call that a "symbolic vote," since Israel was going to intercede no matter what the US House said about it. Magaziner ignored my three separate requests for a response to my contact. Too busy counting his AIPAC contributions, I suppose.
