PLEASE SIGN!

I'm a physician who has cared for agricultural workers in the San Joaquin Valley.
They have been neighbors and friends who are among the hardest-working people I know.
Denying them jobs is unconscionable and will slash the income of all farm workers, no matter where they were born.
Comment period ends Dec. 1: Stop Trump Admin’s H2A wage changes that could drastically reduce wages and jobs for US workers.

Sign on today and say “NO” to slashing wages for farm workers.

It's laughable how you Mamdani stans act like he invented fire for beating a Republican Trump wouldn't endorse & the same disgraced former governor he beat in the primary.

You have much to understand

One can practice a religion and not believe in God.
There's something wrong with this picture. I mean, being both religious and an atheist sounds a bit like being both a floor wax *and* a dessert topping...

But seriously, how can an atheist rabbi sincerely recite Shma Yisrael? The "no other gods" technicality you cited earlier wouldn't work here.
November 18, 2025 at 3:09 PM
Yes
Are you saying that one can be Jewish in the religious sense (rather than in the ethnic sense) absent any belief in the monotheistic deity?

It is not uncommon for western cultures to consider non-western cultures as “abnormal” here in America.

It’s been going on for some five centuries, now here in America, and is itself worthy of study.
The scientific study of religion is a study of abnormal psychology. That's the only reason to study it. How do evil people use it to control so many? Why does it completely disrupt their ability for reason?

For anyone following this anti Black, Antisemitic @50501movement.bsky.social account. Their drive seems to be alienating the 2 strongest most dependable voter blocks in the Democratic Party. If you believe that’s a good strategy keep following them and amplifying their bs. AIPAC ain’t your problem.

The Jewish people have enough problems without people like Miller making us look bad
“There are calls with Miller, where everyone is being screamed at,” the official told The Beast. “The targets he is setting for them are ridiculous, and it is a case of them just spending any money they can to increase the number of officers and deportations.”
Insiders are saying the Department of Homeland Security's ICE hiring is in "chaos" and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller is reportedly angry over "lagging" deportation numbers.

Now we need a new plane to protect us from people who have access to f35 technology
"Trump confirmed Monday that he will allow Saudi Arabia to purchase F-35 stealth fighter planes, a move that will likely anger Israel as the U.S. deepens ties with another Middle East powerhouse."

The 3rd major arms package in his two terms.

And now that jet technology might end up in China.
Trump says he will sell F-35s to Saudi Arabia
The president's comments, which could antagonize Israel, come a day before he welcomes Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to the White House.

Well here’s the thing, pretty sure whatever source you’re getting your info on has convinced you that Israel broke the ceasefire. The reporting of this war has been nothing but lies and propaganda. There’s no reason for Israel to break it being they wanted their hostages back.
I'm aware of that. I'm referring to the one negotiated in Jan, after the Oct 7th attack.
