Thank you for speaking out. We need more Jewish organizations to call out this hate.
This is a pure, unadulterated call for genocide from a sitting Member of Congress.
Respectable, decent public officials don’t target vulnerable communities – cowards do.
ALL of our safety is intertwined. This bigotry and violent hatred make every last one of us less safe.

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1 trillion.
Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed seven straight audits.
This is the military industrial complex on steroids.

Um, is the issue that has failed to address the affordability crisis or did he cause it? For I sure think his tariffs and the big ugly bill have caused the prices of food, utilities and health care to rise.
Trump's approval is at an all-time low.
The American people are smart. They know Trump is failing to address the affordability crisis and driving our economy into the ground.
