Until we pass a nationwide ban on gerrymandering (which we need), Democrats should gerrymander every state to the fullest extent. 52-0 in CA, 17-0 in IL, and so on. No more unilateral disarmament. Time to get serious about fighting back.
If we ended gerrymandering and overturned Citizens United, made bribing politicians illegal again, the GOP wouldn't win the House or Senate for 1,000 years. Throw in term limits for Supreme Court justices, and we’d finally fix the court that legalized this corruption.
This idea that it’s every individual’s responsibility to do free PR for Democrats rather than advocate for their own rights or those of their fellow human is about 10 years old.
In that time Trump has won 2x and Dem approval has fallen to 33%. Perhaps Dems do need to improve.
U.N. Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese is asked if she believes Israel has a right to exist:
"There is no such a thing in international law like a right of a state to exist. Does Italy have the right to exist? Italy exists. Now, if tomorrow, Italy and France want to merge and become Ita-France, fine. This is not up to us. What is enshrined in international law is the right of a people to exist."
"Where is the protection of the Palestinian people from erasure, from annexation, from illegal occupation and apartheid?"

As the federal judge who ordered his release said, “This is not the first time that the nation has seen chilling action by the government intended to shut down debate.”
May it be the last.
REPORT: Biden Officials Admit They Never Pressured Israel for Ceasefire, as Israeli Leaders Boast of Playing Washington
“God did the State of Israel a favor that Biden was the president during this period… We fought [in Gaza] for over a year and the administration never came to us and said, ‘ceasefire now.’ It never did. And that’s not to be taken for granted.”
—Former Israeli ambassador Michael Herzog:
A sweeping Israeli Channel 13 investigation has exposed the Biden administration’s complicity in Israel’s 19-month war on Gaza. Nine top Biden officials acknowledged avoiding real pressure on Israel—even as the death toll surpassed 30,000. Israeli leaders openly bragged they dragged out the war, playing for time until Donald Trump’s return.
Former National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, Ambassador Tom Nides, and others defended their unwavering support for Israel—even as they admitted enabling a campaign one U.S. aide described as “killing and destroying for the sake of killing and destroying.”
Here’s what the investigation revealed: 🧵⬇️
