Jimmy Dore: Crowds of angry constituents at town halls confronted pro-Israel congressmen like Brian Steil, Jack Reed, and Seth Magaziner, demanding answers over U.S. support for Israel amid reports of starvation and suffering in Gaza. Protesters accused lawmakers of enabling genocide and called out the influence of AIPAC money, arguing politicians fear being financially punished if they oppose Israeli policies.
The heated exchanges showed a growing disconnect between representatives and their constituents, with many in the audience openly booing and shouting at them. While Jimmy says he enjoys seeing politicians face public outrage, he doubts these confrontations will lead to real change without organized collective action.
