It's too bad that "censure" is just as meaningless as Seran's employment history.

I believe committee removal is a separate process that doesn’t happen automatically. Methais is right. It’s just a symbolic eff you statement that doesn’t really do anything but make us feel better. Still, I’m glad they did it & that it was a bipartisan vote.

Have House Republicans stopped trying to circumvent the support of Israel yet?

"Circumvent" AKA using the legislative process correctly as written and implemented.

I don’t know what you mean. They submitted a bill for billions in aid for Israel. All the Senate has to do is vote yay to approve it.

You expect the Senate or Biden to approve anything but a clean bill, much less with the riders House Republicans are trying to hold Israel hostage over?

I expect that we make some kind of effort to reduce the over $33 trillion in debt. If we are going to help Israel, which I believe we both agree that we should, that money has to be taken from some other part of our budget. We can no longer afford to continue spend money we don’t have, especially in aid to a foreign nation.

Tldnr; Democrats don’t control the House & elections have consequences. No more blank checks.
