Some people think that any criticism of Israel legitimate or otherwise will feed this sentiment. • Many customers in Detroit have been unable to pay their water and sewer utility bills.

Cenk, Ana, Dave Rubin, and Jimmy Dore on the Power Panel.  The hour begins with talk about the war in Gaza.  Video of a French reporter from the ground in Gaza where a rocket landed nearby during his report is shown.  Rubin makes his argument for support of Israel’s actions against Hamas up against Cenk, Ana, Jimmy, with Steve chiming in. Republicans are pushing the new talking point that they never brought up the idea of impeachment of President Obama. They argue that it was a scam brought on by the president so that Democrats can raise money.  This shift came once the WH spox pointed out that they raised over $1 million off of the GOP’s calls for impeachment.  A video mashup of the countless times Republicans have called for impeachment of Obama follows.  Rep. Don Young was caught on camera twisting a staffer’s arm when he tried to block him from re-entering a closed door meeting, due to protocol.
