00:00How come?

00:01I just think that Congress is the appropriator in the Constitution.

00:05I don't think the White House can use tricks to change the meaning of the Constitution.

00:09Can you make a robust vote saying that there will be more rescission packages?

00:12What does that do to the appropriations process?

00:14It makes it harder for Dems to trust that if we negotiate in good faith,

00:18a deal will be upheld by Trump or the Republicans, and that makes it more difficult.

00:22And the letter regarding Gaza?

00:24Sorry, yeah.

00:26Do you think that the U.S. should be pulling its support from Israel or stopping to Israel?

00:32We need to allow the humanitarian organizations that are experts in providing food to do it,

00:38rather than a jerry-rigged GHF that is unsuccessful.

00:42And the notion that you're going to have just a handful, a tiny handful of sites

00:47distributing food sufficiently for this population is a complete and kind of brutal fantasy.

00:52We need to let World Food Program, Mercy Corps, and other organizations that are experts at this back into doing it.

00:58It's very, very disappointing that the Netanyahu government, not the Israeli people,

01:04but the Netanyahu government has choked off humanitarian aid since virtually the very beginning,

01:09but most brutally recently.

01:11Senator, another question in foreign policy.
