Nancy Pelosi: Funding Israel, Betraying Workers
Manage episode 400967314 series 3291330
Nancy Pelosi’s been in office for 37 years. She’s an ardent supporter of capitalism and imperialism, telling a college student who asked her in 2017 that “I have to say, we’re capitalist - and that’s just the way it is” at a time when 51% of 18-29 year olds said they didn’t support capitalism. She was part of the push on Obama to bomb Syria in 2013, she’s a hawk on Iran and she’s said that US support for Israel is “ironclad.”
More recently, she’s suggested that protesters calling for a ceasefire in Palestine are plants or tools of Russia, saying “for them to call for a ceasefire is Mr. Putin’s message” and “Make no mistakes, this is directly connected to what he would like to see.”
And in October, she told members of the peace group CODEPINK to “go back to China.”
Were joined today by Medea Benjamin, a co-founder of CODEPINK, to dig deeper into Pelosi’s politics, money and support for genocide.
