Code Pink staging antiwar protests but says Dems mum on Biden’s hawkish moves at Russia

The liberal activist group Code Pink is galvanizing its antiwar activists in more than 60 U.S. cities to rally this weekend in opposition to President Biden’s war footing against Russia, though prominent Democratic groups such as MoveOn are shunning the protests.

Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin said some of its liberal allies are giving the antiwar movement the cold shoulder now that Mr. Biden is in charge and Democrats are running Congress.

“I think that the Democrats are very afraid to be labeled as pro-Putin and they see everything through the lens of U.S. good, Russia evil,” Ms. Benjamin told The Washington Times. “We see it through the lens of war is evil, diplomacy good.”
