Young democrats being +22 on “Free market economy” and -31 on “Capitalism” is both funny and bleak

Popular far-left French politician Louis Boyard discreetly took off his Rolex worth $50,000 before giving an interview ‘denouncing the ultra-rich.’

Hypocrisy at its finest.

Socialists aren't hypocrites. They're just liars. They are wealthy, privileged, downwardly-mobile losers who resent their father for being successful. So, they aim to destroy successful people and successful societies because that success reminds them of their loserdom.

DSA member Linda Sarsour calls for replacing the Declaration of Independence.

“Do we have the audacity to…build a document that is our values?”

This is an attack on everything America stands for.

Not everyone knows this, but American boxing legend Floyd Mayweather donated $100,000 to buy 100 bulletproof vests for Israeli medics on the front lines.

"I stand with Israel. God bless America. God bless Israel."

You're incredible, @FloydMayweather. 🇺🇸🇮🇱

Don't let these dimwits who draw false equivalency between Palestinian armed groups & the State of Israel spin terminology related to international law while maintaining their own credibility ever again.

Genocide, occupation, war crimes, apartheid, aggression. None of it.

In doing so, they demonstrate their willingness to misrepresent the language of international law as a rhetorical tool to give the veneer of authority to their pro-terrorist propaganda - even though they don't actually have a clue what they're talking about. In short, they are the ones who are "completely confused about everything" - even while they falsely claim it is everyone else who is confused.

Remember. You can support Palestinian terrorists, OR you can respect international law. But you cannot credibly do both. ⤵️

It’s remarkable how many of the “Gaza genocide” people claim a genocide is still continuing. As if the end of the war and the aid surge, which they had demanded so fervently, now haven’t changed anything fundamental.

They point to a low-intensity Israeli campaign of targeted strikes on Hamas commanders and the like, who have broken the deal by refusing to disarm.

For these critics, that’s enough. Which should tell us a lot about what “genocide” meant for them the whole time.

Qatar is the largest foreign funder of American higher education

Over $60 BILLION in aggregate has been disclosed

The radicalization of young Americans on college campuses is being funded by Qatar

So why is no one looking into this?

Because they're getting that $ too

Save The Children distributed $23M in cash in Gaza between November 2023 and June 2025.

Cash and Voucher Assistance is the single most guaranteed way to ensure aid money reaches the hands of terrorists. It is a global problem.

Apart from the question of whether @RoKhanna is lying (he is), his performative visit to Judea and Samaria broke the rules and undermined our Constitution.

I was US Ambassador to Israel for 4 years. During that time, the US Embassy facilitated the visits of hundreds of members of Congress. IN EVERY SINGLE CASE, the visit, including the itinerary, was coordinated with the Embassy, and usually with the State Department in DC as well.

This is not just a security driven protocol, although that is an important factor. It also is a reflection of the Constitutional mandate that the foreign policy of the United States is directed by the President through the Department of State.

When a US representative visits a foreign country, the Constitution says that the Executive Branch has the paramount interest in how that visit is achieved. That doesn’t mean that the representative can’t do his own fact finding or draw his own conclusions. But when the representative goes off undermining US foreign policy on foreign soil, that’s foul play.

@RoKhanna went rogue. He couldn’t have cared less about how his theatrics reflected upon our nation. He wanted his sound bites and his video clip, no matter how misleading, and he wasn’t going to let our Constitution get in the way.

Imagine his wealth if he had been pro IRGC instead of pro Israel. Imagine if he was notorious for insider trading. Graham could have Ro Khanna money.

The same guy who complained about being "threatened" as the "holder of an American passport" now claiming Amb. Leiter (@yechielleiter) showed the "height of arrogance" by not placating this latest publicity stunt is absolutely peak hypocrisy.

Even so, it's important to recognize the broader trend taking shape right now. As if it wasn't already clear, he reportedly confirmed he's "strongly considering" a 2028 presidential run.

This "incident" in Judea and Samaria came right after the publicity tour @Israel by @RahmEmanuel - who is also planning a presidential bid - expressing a strategic vision of distancing 🇺🇸 from 🇮🇱.

And THIS publicity tour happened at about the same time that @andyburnham - presumptive next 🇬🇧 PM - apologized for @UKLabour not distancing from 🇮🇱 early enough.

For the left throughout the West today, it is impossible to message or actually implement enough distance from 🇮🇱. And it is simply politically untenable to not publicly take a position that marginalizes & isolates 🇮🇱 from whichever country in which the individual politician is running for office.

As a moderate conservative, I wish I could say the right will remain a bulwark against this surge of anti-Israel sentiment emerging on the left - yet it's happening to us as well but for different ideological reasons. We're just lagging behind the left since the "legal intifada" (terrorist influence ops) has specifically targeted liberals for decades, while anti-Israel messaging courting conservatives really only ramped up not long after the second inauguration of @realDonaldTrump.

Staying focused on the left for now, we need to understand that liberal politicians are reacting to the prevailing mood in society - especially among progressives and particularly among the youth. And these constituents are responding to rampant #legaldisinformation that has been a primary component of popular anti-Israel & anti-Western messaging, which has become especially popular and mainstream in the wake of Oct 7.

Because distortions & misrepresentations related to the language of international law are at the core of this movement, everyone interested in confronting it MUST become proficient in - if they're not already - applying the doctrinal version of international law as a means of countering the dominant vector carrying this messaging campaign & associated sentiment throughout the West today.

These politicians seeking to capitalize on this popular anti-Israel sentiment have no business in public office. In doing so, they're demonstrating just how spineless & feckless they truly are. Otherwise, they would learn how to take a stand & push back against this rising anti-Israel tide rather than cashing in on it simply because doing so is politically expedient.

What they're essentially doing is adopting @BDSmovement priorities as actual or promised public policy - all the while paying lip service to supporting the Jewish community when yet another attack is carried out in the name of "anti-zionism."

This movement is actively fanning the flames of antisemitism by encouraging anti-Israel sentiment at a time when Jews are increasingly regarded as a proxy for zionism & zionism, in turn, is regarded as a proxy for the State of Israel. Those behind the BDS movement do not have the well-being of the Jewish community - or of the West more broadly - in mind.

Yet this is the agenda being adopted in real time by the left right now. These politicians see the writing on the wall, and they're responding. That's what brought Khanna to Judea and Samaria & Rahm Emmanuel to Israel & led Andy Burnham to apologize for Labour not shunning 🇮🇱 early enough.

They see the writing on the wall - and we need to as well. What was once on the far fringes of the left is now becoming mainstream liberal policy. Rather than merely accepting this shift, the politicians who seek to capitalize on it must be marginalized themselves, lest the former fringe becomes mainstream public policy.

Active measures must be taken right now to counter this broader trend, before it's too late.
