Some of yall have forgotten that we already tried the ‘let the fascists win’ thing in 2016. We didn’t get a revolution or socialism; all we got was a far right Supreme Court, a botched pandemic response, and crashed economy. Only stupid people would want to try that again.
Bill Clinton (D) was investigated by Ken Starr (R)
George W Bush (R) was investigated by Patrick Fitzegerald (R)
Hillary Clinton (D) was investigated by James Comey (R)
Donald Trump (R) was investigated by Robert Mueller (R)
Joe Biden (D) was investigated by Robert Hur (R)

“What’s been negotiated would – if passed into law – be the toughest and fairest set of reforms to secure the border we’ve ever had in our country. “ “It would give me, as President, a new emergency authority to shut down the border when it becomes overwhelmed. And if given that authority, I would use it the day I sign the bill into law.”
It is quite literally a joint Israeli and Palestinian movement. Not engaging with Standing Together is shooting your advocacy in the foot. These are some of the most active anti-occupation and anti-war Israelis out there. By being in Israel they have political power for change.
