Israel, the United States and Hamas are close to an agreement to free dozens of women and children held hostage in Gaza, in exchange for the first sustained pause in conflict in Gaza, according to people familiar with its provisions.

    I’ll vote downticket for Democrats and write Hillary Clinton in to the Presidential spot.

    Democrats in the House and Senate would rein in Trump and it’s still Her turn!!!

      Not against her as a candidate, but you know writing her in will just waste a vote.

      There’s also no promise that if she were in the potus seat right now that she could definitively broker a ceasefire. We don’t know how any of it would work with anyone else.

      Let’s give Biden a chance.

      (Btw im all for voting for another deserving candidate who runs against him on the Democratic ticket)

        I’m giving Biden a chance right now. He has almost an entire fucking year to pull this off.

        The pressure is already adding up, you can’t say that Democrats haven’t budged on this issue. It’s working.

        Keep up the pressure. No ceasefire, no votes.

      Clinton. You’d vote for Clinton in this theoretical scenario as to who would get your vote in negotiating a ceasefire as president during this crisis.

      The Hillary Clinton who has expressly opposed a ceasefire during this very crisis.

      That Clinton.
