It’s fucked that it’s 15 Republicans and only 2 Dems abstaining.
If my arithmetic is correct, the Senate Genocide Caucus consists of 2 Independents, 32 Republicans, and 37 Democrats.
=71. You’re short 1. (vote was 72-11)
I see what I did. I subtracted from 48 Republicans instead of 49. The Senate Genocide Caucus has 2 Independents, 33 Republicans, and 37 Democrats.
