MAGA Jews spent so much time conflating left wing criticism of Israel’s actions with antisemitism that they overlooked the significant danger that the MAGA coalition poses for Jews who live in America. What did they expect from a party that de-humanizes other minority groups?

Area man (who makes his living claiming expertise in the subject) stumped by fact that politics is actually about power and money, not about delivering what proves popular in polling.
I'm sorry. I shouldn't. But it's too rich to pass up.

The centrist faction's biggest fossil-fuel promoter "genuinely" does "not understand" why Trump is gearing up to invade the sovereign nation that has the biggest oil reserves on the planet.

Israel has held 16-year-old American, Mohammed Ibrahim, without trial, for 9 months.

He has been denied contact with family & his health is deteriorating. He says he falsely confessed to throwing a rock after being beaten.

America needs to secure his release NOW.

In two years, Israel has killed more than 1,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

Every day, settlers attack Palestinian villages. Netanyahu & his extremist allies have one goal: annexation by force. The U.S. has enabled them.

NO MORE U.S. MILITARY AID FOR ISRAEL.

While ICE abductions, often in broad daylight, have provoked fear and outrage, the escalation is also unleashing a less visible form of economic treachery on Chicago’s immigrant working class: wage theft, lost income, work speedups, and economic slumps that spread through neighborhoods. My latest.

The NYTimes and other powerful institutions and people will continue to spin Mamdani's every word and action to frame a thoughtful, moral, consensus-building man as divisive and dangerous while giving a pass to those who promote flouting international law and who cause actual harm. Be ready.
Zohran Mamdani chastised a Manhattan synagogue that hosted an event promoting migration to Israel and settlements in occupied territories. His stance further tested his strained relationship with pro-Israel Jews in New York.

Again, every elected Democrat needs to put out a video stating exactly what Kelly and the others said. If ever there were a line to draw in the sand, it’s here. The military is not the president’s Praetorian Guard.

✅ yep, I agree with this. All of the Above is what we need to do.
Voting is necessary, but not sufficient on its own.

We need to support fighters, not folders, in every race at every level. Taking down fascism & oligarchy requires mutual aid, mass mobilization, direct action (ie anti-ICE patrols), targeted pillar disruption *and* voting. Keep fighting back
“Just vote blue in 2026” won’t save us from American fascism. Both parties have been drifting to the right for years. Democrats and Republicans have aligned themselves with corporatocracy and oligarchy, respectively.

This is outrageous.
It shows that Texas Republicans are afraid of losing power, which needs to happen.

Today, after months of requests, I toured the Broadview ICE Processing Facility. I want to share what I saw.

The facility has no food vendor, no medical care, and detainees have to use toilets in the middle of shared cells. These are in no way suitable conditions to be holding anyone — period.

Good morning! Science time!

Bowhead whales make huge amounts of a DNA-repair protein that seems to stop damaged cells from turning pre-cancerous. The AK Iñupiaq community helped researchers determine that Bowheads can live 200yrs without cancer. This may help find new cancer treatments in humans.
