I find it outrageous that the United States continues to supply Israel with a blank check when it comes to arms. These same weapons that the people of Connecticut are paying for are destroying families, including women and children, not the ones responsible for the Oct. 7 attack.

When it comes to food aid, we should tell Israel that we will send in convoys of food and clothing protected by the U.S. Army. Forget the airdrops. I hear nothing from the empty suits we sent to Washington. We are in tough shape when it comes to leadership in this country. All you have to do is just look at who we have on the ballot in November. We need a third party.
