Israel's war against Hamas terrorists in Gaza could undermine support for President Joe Biden in the 2024 general election.
Following the horrific attacks, Biden spoke multiple times with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and delivered national remarks condemning Hamas's"pure, unadulterated evil" and vowed to"have Israel's back" in securing hostages and rooting out any terrorists still in the country. "I am determined as ever to fight for a just future where everyone can live in peace, without fear and with true freedom, equal rights, and human dignity. The path to that future must include lifting the blockade, ending the occupation, and dismantling the apartheid system that creates the suffocating, dehumanizing conditions that can lead to resistance," her statement read.
Perhaps more troubling for Biden than a few lawmakers speaking out was the response to the attacks from the Democratic Socialists of America, a labor-focused group often touted by progressive lawmakers Sen. Bernie Sanders and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez . Several other DSA-stamped lawmakers also distanced themselves from the group. Rep. Shri Thanedar renounced his membership in the group, and officials in Rep. Jamaal Bowman's office announced that he had let his membership lapse earlier this year.
