I've been screaming this since the days of digg: no one reads bills. I do for this very reason. Once you get used to reading "Washington speak", you can get a general sense of what a bill is going to do and what it won't do.

Given the hype, it wouldn't surprise me if this was a false flag where the alt right is trying to tire us out by having yet another thing to worry about.

We can only do so much. I'm not saying stopping Israel isn't important. I am saying we need to pick and choose our battles. Of the things the Republicans are doing, it's nothing.
