Excerpt from "Senate Intelligence Committee Hearing on Global Threats Turns into a McCarthy Hearing of Lies about CODEPINK" by Colonel (Ret) Ann Wright
This week, CODEPINK activists disrupted Senate Intelligence Hearing on Global Threats with a clear message: the greatest threat to global security is Israel. In response, Senator Tom Cotton libelously asserted that CODEPINK was funded by "Communist China."

During 3 months of imprisonment with no charge, he's been subjected to abuse, solitary confinement, and torture.
Israeli is brutally punishing him for practicing medicine in Gaza.

The real issue? The U.S. is illegally bombing Yemen, again.
They admitted in the chat to blowing up an entire residential building just to kill one man.
This comes after years of U.S. support for Saudi attacks that killed thousands of civilians.… pic.twitter.com/I0bQy56Kns

@codepinkalert Senator Tammy Baldwin just walked out of a student safety hearing, yet said NOTHING about students being abducted for speaking out against genocide. This is dystopian. This is shameful. Where are our elected officials when students are being SNATCHED for using their voices?

@codepinkalert Senator Ted Cruz’s aide assaults a peaceful protesters asking why Cruz supports Mike Huckabee, a nominee who has denied the existence of Palestinians and backs illegal settlements. We were there to demand answers on U.S. support for genocide in Gaza, and instead we got shoved—twice. This is the People’s House. We will not be silenced!
