Jamie Raskin asks how Elise Stefanik can question anyone about antisemitism when she supports former President Trump https://t.co/10J3lmf6nI

[Caroline Kitchener @CAKitchener]

Breaking: After a week of legal whiplash, Kate Cox has left Texas to get an abortion elsewhere.

Her medical situation was too tenuous to wait, according to @ReproRights. She has been to the ER four times during her pregnancy.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

I look forward to your answers.
Very truly yours,
Jamie Raskin

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

Surely you have the “moral clarity” and ethical consistency to oppose antisemitism both on campus and in government. And you wouldn’t want people to believe that you only denounce antisemitism when it comes from outside your political party.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

5. Are you prepared to renounce the antisemitic “Great Replacement Theory”—which you have previously dabbled in—which inspired the perpetrators of the Tree of Life Synagogue, Buffalo supermarket, and El Paso Walmart massacres? Yes or no?

4. Do you regret endorsing Donald Trump for president in 2016 just days after he tweeted an image of the Star of David superimposed over Hillary Clinton's face and a thick pile of cash? Yes or no?

3. Would you support a presidential candidate whose final 2016 TV ad paired images of George Soros, Lloyd Blankfein and Janet Yellen, three prominent Jews, with voice-over about “global special interests” who “don’t have your good in mind”? Yes or no?

To refresh your memory, this was the violence that began with neo-Nazis chanting “Jews will not replace us” outside a local synagogue and ended with the premeditated murder of Heather Heyer by a violent white supremacist in a car.

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

2. Will you support for president a candidate who proclaimed that there were “very fine people on both sides” of the savage antisemitic and racist riot that took place in Charlottesville, Virginia in August 2017? Yes or no?

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

1. Is a candidate qualified to be president who invited to his home for dinner Nick Fuentes, a pro-Hitler Holocaust Revisionist calling for a “holy war” against the Jewish people, and Kanye West, who vowed to go “death con 3” against Jews? Yes or no?

Following your yes/no format, I present five easy questions for you to address with “moral clarity” on presidential tolerance for—and embrace of—antisemitism. (Please avoid the waffling evasion you rightfully denounced!)

[Rep. Jamie Raskin @RepRaskin]

Dear @RepStefanik:
Last week you challenged Ivy League presidents to denounce antisemitism with “moral clarity” by answering yes/no questions. Dissatisfied by their answers, you agitated for their removal. What about tolerance for antisemitism among presidential candidates?

[Kyle Cheney @kyledcheney]

BREAKING: Jack SMITH has gone straight to SCOTUS on the question of presidential immunity for Donald Trump's Washington, D.C. charges and he's seeking to expedite the matter. The petition:

For Donald Trump, who chickened out of testifying today at his fraud case in NYC:

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

I have friends and family, as well as fellow journalists, telling me to relax, it won’t be so bad, he was President before, it won’t be the end of democracy, etc.

The complacency and sheer unwillingness to pay attention to what is being said and done is maddening.

[Lisa Rubin @lawofruby]

Per @adamreisstv, the New York Office of Court Administration has confirmed the Trump civil fraud trial is dark tomorrow. That’s all thanks to Trump’s decision against testifying.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

Trump said he was going to testify in his Trump University trial & chickened out.

Trump said he was going to testify in the E. Jean Carroll trial & chickened out.

Trump said he was going to testify in his own defense in the NY Fraud trial & chickened out.

Liar, fraud, con man.

[Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 @AdamKinzinger]

This is the first time in American history an impeachment inquiry was used for fishing expedition.

Here is what the “moderates” will say to sound “reasonable” while pleasing the base👇👇

[Jen Psaki @jrpsaki]

So a guy in Texas (Ken Paxton) who was investigated for bribery and is known as one of the more corrupt public officials has decided he has the moral authority to determine what a woman carrying a non-viable fetus and a doctor does with her own body…thanks SCOTUS!

[Ted Lieu @tedlieu]

The. Two. Parties. Are. Not. The. Same.

Below is an example of how Republicans’ abortion bans harm and injure women. Trump caused this by campaigning to overrule Roe v. Wade and appointing ultra religious Justices who overruled Roe.

It will be a binary choice next November.
