Shoutout to the ABSOLUTE LEGEND who relentlessly mocked Trump at his rally in Georgia yesterday. Here are some highlights.

@bostonradio Such passion. Not sure that still exists.

IDF police beat up a Palestinian father and his child for standing “too close” to a jewish area.

This is exactly what apartheid looks like.

Kirk nails Ohtani! Beautiful.

[Peter Beinart @PeterBeinart]

If the bombs stop, and the hostages go home, that will be a tremendous blessing. Thank goodness. But there will never be real peace--Palestinians and Israelis will never enjoy real safety--until Palestinians are free. https://t.co/YelD80tald

Mamdani’s victory in the most Jewish city in America — despite a relentless smear campaign by militant Zionists — is a clear referendum on the lie that criticizing Israel equals antisemitism.

New Yorkers rejected the antisemitic notion that opposing genocide is the same as hating Jews. They understand that denouncing a genocidal regime is not hate — it’s a moral imperative.

Bravo, New York. 🗽✊🏼

a fanatical Zionist asks Chomsky if he believes Iran having a nuclear program is an existential threat. Chomsky replies: No, the existential threats to the region and humanity are Israel and the US

"Can we call the police?" "Which police?" In the BBC documentary The Settlers, Louis Theroux meets 20-year-old Palestinian activist Mohammad Hureini
@MohammadHureini , who brings him to the village of At-Tuwani in Hebron. There, Louis witnesses the brutal reality of settler violence as Palestinian homes, lands, and lives are constantly under attack while Israeli forces either stand by or actively assist. The exchange captures the essence of life under occupation, where calling for help means relying on the same system that protects the aggressors. Source: BBC

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

Police just arrested an 80-year-old veteran protesting Trump’s wasteful military parade.

Despicable.

Never underestimate the ability of the DNC leadership to wimp out.

[Daniel Steinmetz-Jenkins @daniel_dsj2110]

When my students inquire as to which sites I recommend for political commentary I suggest Jacobin Mag, Responsible Statecraft, Sidecar, Tribune, Commonweal Magazine, Jewish Currents and The Nation. To get a sense of a political world that is disappearing I recommend The Atlantic

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

Fascinating how cop mayor Eric Adams is the first mayor to be indicted. Almost as if the 'law and order' guys always turn out to be power-hungry ghouls who don't care about the law or anything other than themselves.

The world’s No. 1 Middle East expert weighs in, whose prior recipes created model democracies in Iraq & Libya, just as she foresaw when urging they be invaded. Can Hillary next reveal the secrets of a perfect marriage to a serial philanderer, misogynist & BFF of Jeffrey Epstein?

[Ken Silverstein @KenSilverstein1]

Finally, I've been waiting anxiously to get his take! No one has a finger on the pulse of campus politics like 60-yr-old Fareed, who when attending Yale in the 80s condemned peaceful anti-apartheid protestors & urged the college to maintain its South Africa investment portfolio.

We did just have an earthquake here in New York City.

From 1904 until 1966, the official logo of the Alabama Democratic Party featured an illustration of a crowing rooster and the slogan "White Supremacy, For the Right."

When you see Ackman’s inner Joe McCarthy emerging in real time as he seeks to destroy people who have the temerity to say something he doesn’t like, just as Bari Weiss & other free-speech/cancel culture warriors do.
