Enten on the 67 point swing (!!!) against Israel among Americans: "We're not just talking about the Democratic base anymore. The general electorate has turned against Israel. This is not just a left issue. It's an American issue. The trend line is unbelievable."

@SpeakerMenin It’s not anti-Semitic when two people are attacked just because one happened to be Jewish. The attacker didn’t yell anything anti-Semitic. He’s a mentally ill Latino man.

[Nimatode @nimatode]

@MickGMick @SpeakerMenin @SruliFruchter The attacker was Latino and not Muslim, as you are implying. Clear case of mental illness.

[Nimatode @nimatode]

@zionycgirl @SpeakerMenin Is this satire? Suggesting that Jews are responsible for the actions of Israel is peak anti-Semitism.

@thenoblejonsnow @ryangrim You would rather bleed the DSCC. I would rather bleed AIPAC.

If Haley Stevens wins the primary only thanks to $50+ million in super PAC support, think about what that means for the general.

Ask yourself: Why would AIPAC support Stevens over a Republican in the general?

Quite obviously they will stop spending for her. A Republican is just as good — or even better for them. So then where does she get her money?

It will be pulled from Ohio, and Iowa, and Alaska, and so on.

El-Sayed, meanwhile, has a built in fundraising base, because he has regular people supporting him, not a super PAC that doesn’t care about Michigan or the Democratic Party.

Neera is smart, she knows this. So why does Neera want to sacrifice money for Iowa and Ohio and Alaska just to beat Abdul? Because winning is not the point for the party establishment. Beating the left is the point.

We’re finding out we can’t have healthcare AND we can’t have a military that can fight against people who fight back. The purpose of Pentagon procurement is enriching the rich. The whole country is a series of expensive violent scams, led by the greatest con artist of them all

It'll never not be grimly hilarious to me that a prick who became a millionaire by perfecting utterly racist punching down comedy, went on to spearhead a movement called 'Stop Hate for Profit' 🤯

She is nothing more than an Israeli asset. She doesn’t actually care about ordinary Iranians. She only cares about what Israel dislikes.

Hey @ZohranMamdani, see the broken brakes. Citi Bikes are falling apart. Maybe fix the things that are actually putting New Yorkers’ lives at risk.

Oh busy trying to arrest Netanyahu? I have the names of the men in Iran executing children and some are headed to New York.

SC Dem party chair to @ShaneGoldmacher: “If Nevada gets elevated over South Carolina, it would be because of their Latino vote. So you would then be telling Black voters that you matter less than brown voters. And I refuse to believe that our party wants to send any type of message like that.”

Outrageous…

[Dylan Williams @dylanotes]

Wow—Six Dems really screwed their voters on this, writing Trump a huge check to continue the Iran war and massively increase military cooperation with Israel.

I noticed that these Dems didn’t start voting “yes” until the Republican “no”s hit the number needed to defeat the bill.

[Daily Iran News @DailyIranNews]

The U.S. has completely abandoned its air bases in Jordan,Qatar & will evacuate from Iraq until Sep30.

We will not tolerate any US bases in the region anymore.

Iranian primacy is not due to size alone. It is due to the skill-set of the Iranian population.

“The GCC states and Iran each have 27 million men of military age (16-54). … Some 363,000 Iranians graduate with STEM degrees every year, compared to 121,000 for the GCC. That’s a factor of 3. Iran produces 256,000 engineers per annum, while the GCC produces 50,000. A factor of 5. Higher up the education ladder, Iranian primacy gets even more pronounced. Iran produces 141,000 PhDs a year, or 10X as many as the GCC states.”

@arash_tehran Duh?
