Sarah Silverman says Democratic Socialists of America have 'lost' her

Comedian Sarah Silverman on Tuesday criticized the Democratic Socialists of America for issuing a statement that supported "Free Palestine" and condemned Israel.

Silverman, who described herself as a "proud lifetime member" of DSA, said that the party has "lost me forever" after its National Political Committee released a statement.

The group said the ongoing conflict in Israel and the Gaza Strip is due to Israel’s government, which they described as “a regime that receives billions in funding from the United States.” Silverman posted a screenshot of their statement in her own post.

While she said she's "still a democratic socialist," she pushed back on their stance.

“These are kids, babies, children, teens, elderly, many of whom like my family march in the streets nightly protesting Netanyahu and the occupation — That’s who Hamas murdered,” she wrote on Instagram. "Do you get that they don’t give a F— about Palestinian lives?????"

Celebrities like Josh Gad and Debra Messing were among those who commented their support for Silverman's post.
