With Darializa Chevalier’s victory tonight, publicly exulting in the mass murder of Jews is no longer a barrier to high office in the Democratic Party.
.@DonJBacon and @RepStenyHoyer with a warm moment on the floor.
The chamber is about to advance their Ukraine aid and Russia sanctions discharge petition. Both were staunch advocates throughout.
Rep Joe Wilson (R-SC) tells me he’s voting in favor of Ukraine aid (vote first to allow the vote, then vote on aid maybe tomorrow)
“It’s between Ukraine or Putin, I choose Ukraine.”
As an American who believes Jews deserve freedom and safety in their homeland (and in America or anywhere else), that makes me a Zionist. You can start with me, Maureen.
Bigots like you don’t belong in Congress or in our party.
NEWS: The House has hit 218 signatures on a Ukraine aid and sanctions discharge petition, meaning it will get a floor vote.
@RepKiley signed onto it today, joining GOP Reps. @RepDonBacon and @RepBrianFitz.

A student organization at an American university designed to support and include a group of students has nothing to do with the Israeli government’s policy decisions.
This is hateful and vile antisemitism, plain and simple.
I thank @TheNewSchool admin for swiftly rejecting this action.

RIGHT: @RepStenyHoyer attends King Charles III address to joint meeting of Congress in 2026.
The violent, antisemitic attack at the Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan is despicable.
I continue to pray for the schoolchildren, congregants, synagogue staff, and the local Jewish community at this time. I thank the law enforcement for their emergency response efforts. Jews should be able to worship without fear for their safety. All of us must strongly oppose the rising cancer of antisemitism.
Thanks I wrote a book on Russia and Iran as well as a PHD on the topic, plus multiple publications about the strategic partnership agreement. When I said defense I was speaking about a mutual defense pact but go ahead and share the Wikipedia page with me.
HOYER: “Today’s attack on Iran was an act of war. Its purported purpose, to stop Khamenei’s fanatical regime from committing further acts of terror, is defensible. Donald Trump’s unilateral, unconstitutional decision to go to war without congressional approval is not.”
