This is the scene outside Bard high school this morning — FBI agents and armed soldiers acting as if children going to school on a Friday morning is some national security threat.

Think about this position, even if you took it at face value: "After ICE shot and killed two Americans in the streets, I voted to give them more money for 'training' (which led them to shoot and kill two more people) & for body cameras (that they didn't wear when they killed those people)."

⭕️ Top Democrats conducting a still-secret 2024 election autopsy concluded Kamala Harris lost meaningful support over the Biden administration’s handling of Gaza, Axios reports. 

In a closed-door meeting, DNC officials told the pro-Palestinian IMEU Policy Project their data showed the policy was a “net-negative,” especially with young and progressive voters. The DNC has refused to release the report, denying it is hiding Israel-related findings. Harris has since said the administration should have publicly criticized some of Netanyahu’s actions more forcefully. 

By the final days of the Biden administration, Gaza’s Health Ministry reported roughly 47,000 Palestinians confirmed killed by Israeli forces in Gaza since October 7 in a war heavily backed and armed by the United States.
