Are DEAD. And so is Superman, apparently.
After whining ad-nauseum about "Imperial Presidencies" and "Presidential Over-Reach"... we come to this! And a slim majority in Congress is egging him on.
TREASON from the top down.
For all to see.

World Central Kitchen (WCK) founder José Andrés has accused Israeli forces in Gaza of targeting his aid workers "systematically, car by car"
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68727828.amp
Monday's strike which killed seven members of his staff was not a mistake, he said, repeating that Israeli forces had been told of their movements.
WCK workers from Australia, Canada, Poland, the UK and the US were killed as well as their Palestinian colleague.
Israel says the strike was a "grave mistake" and has apologised. It has also promised an independent investigation.
According to the charity, the aid convoy was hit while leaving the Deir al-Balah warehouse, "where the team had unloaded more than 100 tonnes of humanitarian food aid brought to Gaza on the maritime route".

Hes certainly more deserving than that POS in the White House.

Your kind words mean so much, not only to people in Washington DC, but to all democracy -
(and truth) - loving people throughout the world.
DC IS a beautiful city - and you are a beautiful person.
God bless you! And thanks so much for all you do for the hungry, the needy, the homeless - for all humankind.
