Charleston Leader

U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito, a Republican from West Virginia, recently spoke on the Senate floor about what she described as Democrat hypocrisy. Senator Capito specifically criticized Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer for his comments regarding Israel's elections. Capito highlighted Schumer's call for new elections in Israel and the replacement of Prime Minister Netanyahu as irresponsible and hypocritical.

Capito emphasized the importance of supporting Israel during their time of need, stating, "It’s important that we identify this situation for exactly what it is: an attempt by Democrats to appease the progressive wing of the left that wishes to vilify Israel and abandon them when they need us the most."

Furthermore, the Senator pointed out the inconsistency in Democrat positions on various issues, such as energy policy and the economy. She criticized the Democrats for their actions on the filibuster and President Biden's State of the Union address, which she referred to as a "campaign rally disguised as the State of the Union."

In conclusion, Capito highlighted the disconnect between politicians' actions and the expectations of the American people, stating, "The continued hypocrisy of these political games is not lost on the American people." She reiterated her commitment, along with her Senate Republican colleagues, to lead the country towards a stronger future and hold accountable those engaging in what she perceives as political pretenses.
