Squad member Rep.Cori Bush (D-MO) was brutally fact-checked by Community Notes on X after claiming to have cosponsored a resolution condemning Hamas’ hostage-taking.
“This month, I cosponsored a resolution condemning Hamas for hostage-taking and urging their immediate release. We must ensure the safe return of all hostages and the protection of Palestinian and Israeli civilians,” Bush shared on X.

Community Notes updated Bush’s post with some key context surrounding the situation —we all know how far-left Democrats love talking about context, especially in the Middle East.
“Before Oct 30, Cori Bush did not publicly condemn Hamas. She urged for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict, sought aid for Gaza, while opposing U.S. aid to Israel stating it was the cause of the Hamas attacks. Rep Bush then voted against HR 771 which condemned Hamas.”
Georgia Rep. Majorie Taylor Greene shared the Bush’s post, calling her a bold-faced liar:
