Baldwin & Co.- 3/14/2025- @TaNehisiCoats on liberals who were mad at Palestinians who didn't vote for Kamala Harris "It's sickening! What you're effectively saying is you have no problem with your tax dollars going to BOMB hospitals and school cause they didn't vote with you!?"

Democratic Party strategists ignored voter concerns on Biden’s age and inflation, just as they dismissed outrage over Gaza. They retreat into condescension instead of listening. Instead of engaging voters they need to defeat MAGA, elitism pushes them further away.

This must not get overlooked amid the insanity of Trump’s Gaza takeover comments. Just because Trump is eager to be a war criminal doesn’t mean Netanyahu intends to stop being one.

No one wants another indefinite U.S. military occupation in the Middle East or anywhere else. This is ethnic cleansing – and this is Palestinian land, not ours. The best path for long-term peace and security is a two-state solution.

Trump’s Gaza ethnic cleansing plan reflects the same disregard for Palestinian rights that has handicapped US policy for decades. He’s making the same mistake as past administrations, just in a bigger and uglier way. New in @ForeignPolicy

You heartless person. Why don’t you actually ask the Palestinians what they want to do and where they want to live. They aren’t cattle you move here and there.
Steve Witkoff: "Peace in the region means a better life for the Palestinians. A better life is not necessarily to tied to the physical space that you're in today ... that doesn't occur because you get to pitch a tent in the Gaza Strip."

Palestinian American analyst @OmarBaddar says Trump's ethnic cleansing plan for Gaza is "lunacy" but warns the status quo is also unsustainable. With the U.S. continuing to support Israel's violence, "we are heading to the complete destruction of Palestinian society in Gaza."

During negotiations with the DNC and the Harris campaign, we were repeatedly told by interlocutors that Harris couldn’t meet any of our basic requests (a policy shift from Biden, a Palestinian speaker at the DNC, a statement distinguishing herself from Trump on Israel, or even a

Hard to take this seriously because 1) it’s a lie; 2) Fetterman backs Trump’s proposal and you've said nothing; 3) most disaffected MI voters over Gaza weren’t leftists but non-college mods alienated by unpopular Dem policies, voters who must be won back.

Trump’s comments today re: Gaza are horrifying. And, it’s breathtaking how fast liberal elite & media take the bait, get distracted from billionaire Musk’s coup & play right into our opposition’s hand deepening fractures in the coalition we need in this moment. Wisen up fools.

“The inexplicable reality I was experiencing, being disempowered from engaging our communities to block Trump, that kind of prioritization of the donor class over the working class was happening across our country. The problem the Democratic Party has is systemic.“ -@AZAlawieh

Layla Elabed, one of the leaders of the Uncommitted movement: “Trump’s illegal calls for ethnic cleansing are horrific, but as on so many other issues, Democrats had a chance to persuade voters they were the better alternative and they blew it.”

“The US will take over the Gaza Strip” We feared this human rights catastrophe in Gaza would be the inevitable outcome of the Netanyahu regime’s collective punishment onslaught. We were criticized for voicing it a year ago. Now Trump is casually saying it out loud.

"After boasting that he achieved his goal of a ceasefire by his inauguration, Trump may lose interest in reining in Israel’s military operations in Gaza. The deal may last through the first phase of 42 days but beyond that, Netanyahu promised Smotrich that the fighting would
