⚡️ New: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has introduced an amendment that could effectively halt all offensive and defensive U.S. military aid to Israel under current conditions, as part of a package of 11 amendments to the FY2027 National Defense Authorization Act.

🔸The proposal would require all U.S. defense articles and services to be used in accordance with international law and, consistent with Section 620I of the Foreign Assistance Act, prohibit transfers to countries that restrict U.S.-supported humanitarian aid — unless the president certifies the recipient is complying with those requirements and Congress separately authorizes the transfer.

🔸Its practical force lies in stripping the president’s discretion to look past existing law. Section 620I already bars aid to governments that block U.S. humanitarian assistance, but administrations have repeatedly declined to determine that Israel is in violation despite restrictions on aid entering Gaza.

🔸 Under the amendment, the president would have to affirmatively make that determination, and Congress would have to specifically authorize the transfer through legislation before covered military aid could proceed.

The brilliant @RBReich speaks the truth:

Democrats want a big tent party where reactionaries are allowed, but not leftist populists.

I have been a voting liberal Democrat for more than half a century, and I much prefer energetic Democratic socialist candidates to craven centrists subject to the donor class who have been ineffective against the Trump administration's incursions on our liberties.

Speaker Johnson on losing Midterms:

“They [Democrats] will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body, and they'll go after the president's family, the cabinet, his donors and friends…”

My first real job in politics was in the late 1990s working for an obscure House lawmaker named Bernie Sanders. I’ve spent my entire adult life working to end the corporate takeover of the Dem Party. I’m now allowing myself to feel a bit of hope that the fight can be won.

So my dad has been ending every phone call with "stay dangerous" instead of "goodbye" for like six months now. We all thought he was just being a weird dad. Turns out he's been mishearing the ending of a podcast he listens to. The host says "stay curious" but my dad is slightly deaf in one ear. He's been going around telling his coworkers, my grandmother, and apparently his DOCTOR to "stay dangerous" this entire time. My mom only found out because his doctor called to check if everything was okay at home. My dad has now decided he likes his version better and refuses to stop. Yesterday he told a nun to stay dangerous.

Democrats can no longer pretend to believe that socialists can’t win and will finally have to admit that they simply don’t WANT socialists to win.
