I did. You apparently didn't.

"I remain focused on cutting the flow of munitions that are being used to perpetuate the genocide in Gaza."

What part of that says "I support genocide" to you? What part of that says "I support funding genocide" to you?

You must intentionally ignore her actual words to believe she intends something else.

Politicians sneakily manipulate words? Damn.

The statement you cited literally contradicts your claims. You said she funded genocide. The statement from the DSA literally said: "...the Congresswoman voted against the defense appropriations bill itself, voting against funding for the imperialist military-industrial complex and the Israeli genocide..."
