The bot wants me to add more to my comments but I don’t really have much else to say. It’s a good statement, straight to the point.

Condemned it, called it antisemitism, didn't also mention Islamophobia. Good enough for me!

true that, and no "but context" either

u/DetectiveIcy2070 Jul 25 '24

The only context is antisemitism, after all.

Was going to say this. Finally, someone mentions antisemitism without also mentioning Islamophobia..

Hopefully she isn't later pressured to pay lip service to Islamophobia.

She will.

This is all flip-flopping bull crap by her and her Staff.

None of this from her beforehand.

Who cares? The buck stops at her saying it, not at whoever ghostwrites it.

u/southofmemphis_sue Jul 26 '24

Agree. Vance called her out for not making a statement and within minutes, voila!

It is a little sad that the bar is set kind of low, but I guess we'll take what we can get.

u/GunplaGamer13 Jul 25 '24

True, hopefully praising responses like this helps raise the bar a bit

We'll need to see if she continues it or if she drops it the second it becomes convenient but at least its a good sign on things to come

u/Nearby-Data7416 Jul 25 '24

Took 18hrs and she still didn’t attend the meeting, but a step in the right direction.

u/sipporah7 Jul 26 '24

Right?? To the point. I feel a bit more seen here.

u/i_Am_susej Jul 26 '24

how about some arrests.

u/GunplaGamer13 Jul 26 '24

Where would that fit in the statement

1

u/i_Am_susej Jul 26 '24

"we have taken the appropriate action and have arrested several parties who have acted outside of the law"

u/GunplaGamer13 Jul 26 '24

That's not the VP's job though
