In March, during a state work period in which senators typically engage with the people they represent, he instead went on an all-expenses-paid trip to Israel
So he went to engage with the people he represents.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

"Israeli oligarchs bribe American politician with luxury holiday, to continue supporting their genocide, war crimes, and colonialism."
I know this is all blamed on his stroke, but I don't know. I can't help but wonder if Mossad has so much dirt on him that they have him completely under their control. Like the article says, “It seems like he’s more the ambassador to Israel than the senator from Pennsylvania.”
His top donor is the Israel lobby. Maybe the 200k was enough for him to support a genocide. But I would not rule out a visit to Epistein Island.
From the reporting that's been coming out, it does seem like he's had a general decline in his mental state. It's not just his support for Israel, but his mood and behavior that's changed.
Has anybody checked to make sure this dude wasn't given a neurolink when he was in the hospital for his stroke?
That charity needs to address the mental illness of sociopathy, rather than advance it.
Is that not what they're doing? I recommend tours with Breaking the Silence. They're a great org showing folks what what happens to Palestinian communities after decades of apartheid and war crimes.
They have weekly busses departing Tel Aviv, but you have to book months in advance
I've seen this one! That beeper gon splode!
This mentally unwell man needs to fade away.
Damn, that's a great idea. I wish we made all US Zionists go to Palestine to see the horrors of apartheid.
That would be a great treatment for their mental illness
Sickening. Wonder if he donned his gross hoodie the whole time.
The hoodie is the best part of him now that Gisele is MIA
