I wrote my book because I sensed, even before Oct 7, that when it came to Israel, the organized Jewish community had no limits. It would never say "enough." Now Trump is proposing mass ethnic cleansing. Just watch: Jewish leaders will justify this too.

This is not true. I was clear I would discuss Israel (it's in the title), including Gaza, and the intersection between supremacist politics in Israel and the US. I began the talk with Gaza: By discussing the genocide and why I believe Palestinians in Gaza have the right to
You know how in his bullshit tweet, posted hours before his Tel Aviv lecture, Peter Beinart wrote "I believe there is value in speaking to Israelis about Israel’s crimes"? Well, apparently, he was explicitly told by the organizers NOT to speak about issues outside the intended

By speaking earlier this week at Tel Aviv University, I made a serious mistake. In the past, when formulating my views about Israel-Palestine, I’ve sought out Palestinian friends and interlocutors and listened carefully to their views. In this case, I did not. I really wanted

Tonight, I’m going to speak at Tel Aviv University. I know many people who I respect will think this was the wrong decision given that Israel—as widely recognized by experts on international law—practices not only apartheid but genocide. I support full equality for Israel’s

Just insane levels of unvarnished hate on the American right. This lovely individual was one of the J6ers pardoned by Trump for assaulting cops. He’s running for Senate in Florida.
Following a "March Against Islamization" in Dearborn, Michigan, pardoned J6er Jake Lang spoke to the city council telling Muslim members "You guys are outbreeding, insidious parasites." "You will never look like us," he said. "Get the f*** out. America First." He was ushered

Trump: I’m very proud of the job he’s done. What he’s done is incredible in terms of human rights.

It may be repeating the obvious, but @marykbruce is a first-rate reporter. In the face of a presidential tirade aimed at silencing her, she calmly and professionally showed why a free, independent media remains essential, asking questions that powerful people don't want to answer

“You can refuse illegal orders.” Pretty insane that we are living in a moment where a video message like this a necessary.
We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community. The American people need you to stand up for our laws and our Constitution. Don’t give up the ship.

No executive. No college president. No csuite leader. No industry leader could ever talk like this. Ever. And still hold his job.

"This is why so many of us can't have a sane conversation with younger Jews." The level of condescension is quite remarkable
Fmr Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz laments to Jewish Federation that people are finding content from "Al Jazeera and Nick Fuentes" on social media and seeing videos of "the carnage in Gaza." Holocaust education has backfired in part as people see Palestinians as Jews' victims,

This morning I've got some news: allegations from a highly-placed Heritage insider that Kevin Roberts has allowed a toxic culture of "open misogyny and racism" among a segment of the staff. The examples from the source offered are alarming

No lies from MTG detected in this clip. Intriguing that someone would think it’s a hit to point out that people who speak truth about Trump head to @BulwarkOnline. If MTG wants to write about a random professor using the word Latinx in class I’m sure she can go to @TheFP instead!
How many weeks till @mtgreenee is a columnist for @BulwarkOnline
