mr. sanders, this american senator. of course, mr. sanders has always had a position, which is that he is, for example, an opponent of the government's policies, although he does not cross the red line, which means that israel is directly the target of attacks. he does not organize his own protest attacks, but my question is how much capacity these student protests have that the american authorities. to join him because we knew a while ago that a candidate of the democratic party who planned to participate in the elections in 2024 participated in these protests. these student protests are attracting other people and leaders. how much traction is there for this issue? well , one of the most important achievements in recent years is the awakening of the american youth and their different narrative from the narrative of the american government and the media. america has had the same changes that happened in the american political structure. just today, the news came that nearly 85 congress representatives, mostly from these representative

mr. sanders: thank you, mr. president. mr. president, some of my republican colleagues held a press conference today criticizing president biden for his decision to stop sending additional bombs to israel due to the netanyahu government's apparent decision to launch a major military assault on rafah. the lethal aid that joe bidenah. said he wanted to provide biden objectively favors a hamas victory over israel. it's just that simple, end of quote. which sounds rather amusing, given the fact that for the last 40 years, there's probably been nobody here in washington, d.c., more strongly supportive of israel than joe biden as a senator and a president. we all know that president biden has been very clear about his opposition to an attack on rafah for many, many months, and for good reason. an offensive -- a major military offensive in rafah would worsen an already horrendous humanitarian catastrophe in gaza. and, mr. president, i am not quite sure -- i know a little bit about politics, but i'm not quite sure who my republican co

mr. sanders: mr. president. the presiding officer: the senator from vermont. p mr. sanders: mr.resident, there has been a lot of attention and controversy attached to a recent action by the international criminal court, the icc. the core purpose of the icc is to prosecute the most serious international crimes. genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and the crime of aggression. i believe it is very important that all of us support accountability for these crimes and the important mission of the icc. mr. president, last year the icc declared that president vladimir putin of russia was in violation of international law and that he was a war criminal. the icc issued arrest warrants for putin and one of his senior officials, saying there are reasonable grounds to believe that they had committed the war crime of unlawful deportation and transfer of population for their systematic kidnapping of thousands and thousands of ukranian children. i supported the icc decision, and in fact that is the tip of the iceberg of what putin has done in ukraine. putin started the mostly destruct

mr. sanders: mr.resident, i rise in opposition to s. res. 670, which in my view does in fact not go far enough to address the very serious crisis of bigotry taking place all over this country. let me be very clear. anti-semitism is a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has existed for hundreds, if not thousands, of years and in the last century resulted in the deaths of at least six million people, including some in my own family. and i strongly and unequivocally condemn all forms of anti-semitism. in addition, it is imperative that congress representing the american people makes clear our strong opposition to all forms of bigotry in this country, whether on college campuses or elsewhere, including islamophobia, homophobia, racism, and the growing attacks against the asian american community. our goal must be to bring people together as one nation regardless of our religion, regardless of where we were borne, regardless of the color of our skin. and the resolution that i am offering, which i hope

critics governor sanders are recognized. quick thinking mr. speaker. good afternoon. we got one on the front row. speaker shepherd, president hester, constitutional officers, members of the supreme court, distinguished members of the general assembly, my family, and my fellow arkansans. it is an honor to join you for my first state of the state address. it has been just over a year since i took office. as our state's 47th governor. what an incredible year it has been. today is a little more low-key what today lacks in fanfare we make up for in substance. last remaining promises. this year i am reporting results. i did not do any of it alone. it was the partnership and the work of this a body that helped us bring about transformational change. it was not always easy. something we can all be proud of even on the hard days with people about of arkansas. one is the most difficult days since i took office was march 31 of last year. the day that tornadoes tore through central arkansas. i was there two days after meeting with students, with families, and seeing the damage to

mr. speaker, today, senator bernie sanders and i introduced a historic bill to eliminate medical debt for every american. mr. khanna: over 100 million americans have medical debt. that is criminal in a country as wealthy as ours. no american should go into debt because they go to the e.r. or because they go to a doctor. our bill eliminates all medical debt for families. it eliminates the credit damaging reports on debt and stops hospitals from sticking debt collectors on vulnerable patients. can we agree in america no one should have to give up their dream of owning a home because they have medical debt? no one should have to create gofundme pages to get medical attention. no one should have to decide between medical cancer and medical bankruptcy. this bill stands up for every america's right and thank you for co-leading this effort. i yield back. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentlewoman from michigan seek recognition? >> i request unanimous consent to address the house for one minute and revise and extend my remarks. tab tab -- tlaib tlaib i celebrate a faith leader

mr. trump's white house as former white house deputy press secretary. and symone sandersamala harris. appreciate you joining us. hogan, what we've seen so far is the former president doing himself in favors? >> well, what he's doing is trying to defend himself against what he deems a rigged process. we will see this play out over the course of the next several days and weeks. but we're talking about a town, new york city, in which they've never met a felony they didn't want to downgrade to a misdemeanor. and they wanted to make a misdemeanor into a felony. so i understand his rational and his reasoning there. what it will help with him, though, is something that he said, i think right before you cut away, is when he pointed out 34 different counts here in just a 12-hours he's raised $35 million off of this. many people in this country deem this as an unfair proceeding. forget the party. forget your political persuasion. so many people want fairness. and they don't deem this case as having been conducted fairly. that is what donald trump's talking about right here. of cour

sanders yesterday. [veo] >> -- to tell you why the american people are opposed to more milary aid to the netanyahu government. mrpreside, almost 35,000 palestinians have already been killed in this seven-monthar. morehan 78,000 have been wounded. over two this of whom are women and children. two thirds of home are women and children. as we speak right now, according to humanitarian organizations, hundreds of thousands of palestinian children face the possibility of malnuition d starvation. no. the american people do not want to see an increase in destruction in gaza. they want to see an end to this horrific war. mr. president, as i'm sure you know, the netanyahu government has destroyed the civilian infrastructure of gaza. there is virtually no eltricit virtually no clean water and raw sewagis running through the streets, spreading disease. mr. president, the housing infrastructure of gaza has been demolished. over 60% of the housing units have been damaged or destroyed, including 221,000 housing units that have been completely demated, leaving more than one million people homeless, almos half the population of

mr. jordan: thank you, madam speaker. a little over a year ago, governor sarah huckeby sanders give gave the response to president biden's state of the union address. i thought she did a wonderful job but the line that stuck out to me was in the considers of her remarks she said, the divide in america today is normal versus crazy. you can start thinking about the crazy policies advocated by the radical left. it's crazy not to have a border. it is crazy to think noncitizens should be able to vote in our federal elections. it's crazy to think boys should compete against girls in sports. it's crazy in my mind to let a chinese spy balloon fly clear across the country and then shoot it down. most people i represent would have shot it down before it went across the country. and it is crazy to defund the police. americans understand that instinctively. and yet that is something that the left has advocated now for, what? five years? we should thank the numerous law enforcement officers who have come to washington, d.c. for police week and all those across our great country. every day, police officers put their lives on the lynde
