Jobs will be lost short term, but in 5 to 7 years we'll all be like "Hey, remember AI? LOL!"
Oh, I agree, we should have cut them loose decades ago, but here's why that won't happen:

"A 2017 LifeWay poll conducted in United States found that 80% of evangelical Christians believed that the creation of Israel in 1948 was a fulfillment of biblical prophecy that would bring about Christ's return and more than 50% of Evangelical Christians believed that they support Israel because it is important for fulfilling the prophecy.[112]
According to the Pew Research survey in 2003, more than 60% of the Evangelical Christians and about 50% of Blacks agreed that the existence of Israel fulfilled biblical prophecy. About 55% of poll respondents said that the Bible was the biggest influence for supporting Israel which is 11 times the people who said church was the biggest influence.[112]"
We would, because the stated purpose for our support is so that Israel can defend against a potential attack.
No US politician is going to argue Israel can't defend itself.
The problem is Bibi and Likud re-directing that support for defense into offense.
Again, your complaint is that we're using a single source checker, but you offer no alternative.
If you want to say "Why don't you use 'x'?" I'm happy to look at it. So far, we're striking out.
But the bot DOES use two sources, MBFC and Ground.News.
Pelosi's attacker got as far as he did because Pelosi's protection was with her, and she wasn't home, which let Paul take the brunt of the attack.
"You aren't open to other ideas!"
"Here's a list of ideas we looked at."
"It's like talking to a wall!"
You sure you aren't looking at a mirror when you say that?
Still open to alternatives if you have any.
That's not what they want of Harris. They honestly believe that if we stop funding Israel, the genocide would stop.
It wouldn't. Israel has never needed our help to commit war crimes, but you can't convince them of that.
