WOW — KJP absolutely slams members of Congress siding with Hamas as not only wrong, but publishing statements that "are repugnant and disgraceful."

@PhilipWegmann: “There have been some members of Congress that have called for a cease fire and they have not now gone as far as backing the administration’s call for support for Israel.”

KJP: “So, look, I’ve seen some of those statements this weekend and we’re going to continue to be very clear. We believe they’re wrong. We believe they’re wrong. We believe they are repugnant and disgraceful. Our–our condemnation belongs with terrorists that have brutally murdered, raped, kidnapped hundreds–hundreds of Israelis. There can be no equivocation about that. There’s not two sides here. There’s not two sides. President Biden has been clear on where he has stood. You heard him directly today. You heard from him Saturday on this. There’s been multiple statements from this President. He’s taking action to provide additional support to ensure that Israel has what they need to defend themselves.”

[Kudos to the White House for slapping back at the Squad over this. I’m actually surprised at the strength of these statements today. Those may soften, and probably will sooner or later, but this is a very good response from Jean-Pierre after a good declaration by Biden earlier. Credit where due. — Ed]
