Moulton isn't a leftist. What you're seeing here is not just about AIPAC. It's about ambitious politicians in the Democratic party looking at the polls and concluding that distancing themselves from the institutions of American Jewry is a winning stance.
James Comey:
“My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump, but we couldn’t imagine ourselves living any other way. We will not live on our knees, and you shouldn’t either. Somebody that I love dearly recently said that fear is the tool of a tyrant and she’s right. But I’m not afraid and I hope you’re not either. I hope instead you are engaged, you are paying attention, and you will vote like your beloved country depends on it. And it does. My heart is broken for the Department of Justice, but I have great confidence in the federal juficial system and I’m innocent. So let’s have a trial and keep the faith.”
🚨BREAKING: Pentagon unveiled a new crackdown on reporters, requiring a pledge not to gather any information — even unclassified — that hasn’t been expressly authorized. Will revoke press credentials of those who do not obey and sign.

On Sunday night, Russia fired over 500 missiles and drones at Ukraine. It was the biggest air assault since the war began. Two days later, Trump halted delivery of the PAC-3 air defense missiles to Ukraine.
Cost to United States of World War II (adjusted for inflation): $4.1 trillion https://t.co/txpxRUL8cG
Cost of Trump's trade war in destroyed S&P 500 value: as of today, $5.83 trillion.
The systematic dismantling of USAID has been laid bare and the life-saving aid that we’ve been told should be flowing to those most in need is still frozen. This weekend a new leaked memo confirmed our worst fears. Here’s what we know so far – THREAD:
“On Friday morning, the staffers at a half dozen U.S.-funded medical facilities in Sudan who care for severely malnourished children had a choice to make: Defy President Donald Trump’s order to immediately stop their operations or let up to 100 babies and toddlers die.
They chose the children.”
I am disappointed but not surprised that President Trump has decided to terminate the protection previously provided by the United States Secret Service. Notwithstanding my criticisms of President Biden's national-security policies, he nonetheless made the decision to extend that protection to me in 2021. The Justice Department filed criminal charges against an Iranian Revolutionary Guard official in 2022 for attempting to hire a hit man to target me. That threat remains today, as also demonstrated by the recent arrest of someone trying to arrange for President Trump's own assassination. The American people can judge for themselves which President made the right call.
Trump: “Get out and vote just this time. You won't have to do it anymore. Four more years it will be fixed. It'll be fine. You won't have to vote anymore...In four years you don't have to vote again. We'll have it fixed so good your not gonna have to vote.”
“No dictatorship, we want democracy. We don’t need a dictator we want voting rights.” These slogans were shouted out loudly and openly on the street of Shanghai. This is unprecedented. What’s next? Will the authorities arrest and announce stricter social control laws? Eyes on CH
@ChaseSupport Can we improve the customer service line and provide actual wait times to callers on hold? "Expected wait time of 20 minutes or more" is awfully vague. Could really use some customer service to get my flights booked through chase (lack of) rewards rerouted.
