AIPAC Is Retreating From Endorsements and Election Spending. It Won’t Give Up Its Influence.
AIPAC is taking a quieter approach this midterms cycle, but the lobbying group is still seeking to keep Congress in Israel’s pocket.

Doomerism in December is still cowardly preemptive surrender, but now also requires ignoring all the non-doomer things that have happened over the year.

I’m not gonna dunk on some small depressed account, but one reply I get to this is “you think there’s gonna be elections/Trump will listen to judges??” And I wonder how people haven’t noticed that Garcia is home and free and Republicans got crushed in elections this year

140+ police were injured
A range of violent weapons were used by attackers
Chants to hang Mike Pence were heard
There was a gallows and guns
