In this searing and unfiltered Senate floor speech, Senator Bernie Sanders delivers a powerful indictment of U.S. foreign policy, taking direct aim at Donald Trump’s unwavering financial and political support for Israel’s recent bombing campaigns in the Middle East.
Sanders traces the long arc of American involvement in global conflicts — from the Vietnam War to Iraq, Afghanistan, and now U.S. complicity in Israel’s military actions — exposing how successive administrations have sacrificed the interests of ordinary Americans to feed the ever-expanding military-industrial complex.
With his trademark clarity and moral urgency, Sanders asks the hard questions: Why are billions being poured into foreign wars while Americans struggle with healthcare, housing, and stagnant wages? Why does the U.S. continue to fund military campaigns that violate human rights and escalate global instability? And why is bipartisan leadership still unwilling to hold allies like Israel accountable under international law?
This clip captures the Vermont Senator at his most impassioned — challenging Trump-era foreign policy and the bipartisan consensus that props up endless war. Sanders calls for a dramatic shift in U.S. priorities, urging fellow lawmakers to reject blank checks for military action and instead invest in peace, diplomacy, and the wellbeing of the American people.
