An anonymous cabal within the Biden administration known as ‘Feds United for Peace’ has organized a dramatic walkout next week.
According to sources, hundreds of employees spanning more than two dozen agencies plan to participate in the protest, which is scheduled to occur on the 100th day of Israel’s siege on Gaza.
The demonstration is driven by resentment within the administration over President Biden’s support for Israel’s military mission in Palestine. This support is reportedly costing Biden political capital, particularly among young voters as he gears up for his 2024 reelection campaign.
Previous displays of disapproval toward White House policy typically involved media leaks or public resignations, but this walkout marks a new direction for dissent. The organizers, who have kept their identities hidden, say they want to enact change from the inside. They affirm that “easily hundreds” of staffers will be joining the effort on Tuesday, with commitments coming from people within 22 federal agencies, including the Executive Office of the President, Homeland Security, the Defense Department, and the FDA.
The Biden administration has allocated more than $14 billion to Israel as well as significant military support. The protest’s organizers have launched the strike to influence Biden’s policy, hoping to end America’s involvement in the Middle East crisis.
To quell the unrest bubbling within the ranks, White House officials have conducted meetings with their aides, including “listening sessions” between Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and Arab American, Muslim, and Jewish staffers. Others have sent letters through the State Department’s private dissent channel to raise concerns anonymously.
