I find it astounding that a people who lost >6 million lives to genocide would a generation later support the genocide of another culture. It’s equally astounding that anyone who supports ending genocide would be considered anti-Semitic.

Republicans are still trying to pass their Big Betrayal Bill.
They held the previous vote open for hours—and STILL don’t have their shit together.
Maybe the problem isn’t the vote count. Maybe it’s the bill.
You can hold the vote open all night…trash is still trash.

NEW POLL: 71% of Americans say they won’t support a politician who votes to cut Medicaid — even if they agree with them on most other things.
That includes 51% of Republicans.
Congress should take note.

Today, in the House Oversight Committee, Republicans called in governors from so-called “sanctuary states” to try and bully them over immigration policy.
