Hersh Goldberg-Polin is an American hero who will be remembered for his kindness and selflessness. Our hearts break for Jon, Rachel, and their entire family, as well as the other families who found out today their loved ones won’t be coming home. May their memory be a blessing.
No matter what you believe should happen in the Middle East, what marches you’re attending, or what flag you’re flying, there’s one thing we can all agree on: rape should never be an act of war. - @sherylsandberg
The final estimated turnout for the rally for Israel and against Jew hatred is now 290,000, making it the Jewish community's largest turnout ever. The previous record gathering was 250,000 to free Soviet Jewry in 1987.
Just a reminder that with the *exact same margin* that Republicans currently have, Democrats passed the Inflation Reduction Act, American Rescue Plan, Infrastructure package, gun safety law, PACT Act, CHIPS Act, and reauthorized VAWA.
Republicans can't even choose a Speaker.

I have never before seen a political party come apart at the seams like this. To govern we are going to have to use discharge petitions and other maneuvers to circumvent these maniacs.
Although we knew this was coming after the leak of Justice Alito’s draft decision, it doesn’t make it any less shocking or unnerving that Americans will lose a fundamental right they’ve had for nearly my entire lifetime. 🧵/8
Not surprising. But still outrageous.
This decision is a direct assault on the dignity, rights, & lives of women, not to mention decades of settled law. It will kill and subjugate women even as a vast majority of Americans think abortion should be legal. What an utter disgrace.
First: Abortion is still legal.
The language in the draft opinion leaked from the Supreme Court is outrageous, irresponsible and shocking.
Any Justice who signs onto this opinion is fueling the harm and violence that will happen to people who become pregnant in this country.
