No one on Earth is less deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize than Donald Trump...unless the only other choices are Putin and Netanyahu.

@colorado.gov can you claim - with a straight face - that Tina Peters hasn't immediately resumed her criminal activity after your disgustingly obsequious commutation?

It's interesting that Lindsey Graham never muted his criticism of Russia in alignment with the MAGA/oligarch narrative. Russia issued an arrest warrant for Graham in 2023.

I wish to remind my fellow Americans: Ronald Reagan = really, really bad Jimmy Carter = really, really good I suggest malabsorption of this basic factual dynamic has wrought terrible, tragic damage in this country and in the world.

Goldberg: Part of the problem is the casting-call approach to candidate recruitment; they started by looking at a lobsterman who’d donated to Bernie Sanders, then moved on to oyster farmers.

But the bigger problem — besides the truly egregious absence of vetting — was not taking the time to do candidate development. Compare Moraff’s approach with that of Amanda Litman, head of Run for Something. She’s also supporting unconventional figures to run for office, some of them white men! (James Talarico was a Run for Something alum.) But Run for Something isn’t throwing neophytes into high-profile national races. They’re helping people run for local and state office, and those who shine there can move on to bigger things. That process is a lot more laborious and time consuming, but far more effective in building a Democratic bench.

we are not “self-hating jews”; we are not antisemites; we are proud jews who also believe in the human rights of palestinians. we have proved those things can and do very much coexist, something that seemed impossible not long ago. we are a constituency and we have a voice.

We’re both proud Jewish New Yorkers. But there are sharp & clear differences between us on Israel/Palestine. For example, Dan Goldman marched alongside war criminal Bezalel Smotrich yesterday, who called it “just & moral” to starve Gaza. I did not.
Compare the Candidates on Israel/Palestine

Brad Lander

Will vote against U.S. military aid (offensive or defensive) while Israel is violating int’l law and Palestinian human rights

Will co-sponsor the Block the Bombs and Ceasefire Compliance Acts

Calls Israel’s destruction of Gaza a genocide

Has never accepted AIPAC funding and never will

Dan Goldman

Has voted every time to send U.S. military aid to Israel, and made clear he is going to keep doing so

Opposes the Block the Bombs and Ceasefire Compliance Acts

Called Israel’s actions “justified and righteous”

Endorsed by AIPAC and accepts their donations

Another reminder: if there exists *any* class of people who don't have due process rights, then *nobody* actually has due process rights because the government can always just say you're in that class.

This car costs $8500. Not a typo. Less than 10 racks. And you don't have to put gas in it. But we can't have it in the US, because we'd rather have racism and argue about solved problems like birthright citizenship, and should Black people be allowed to vote. So you get Cybertrucks instead. Enjoy!

Zionism is to Judaism what Christian nationalism is to Christianity, but at the top of the pyramid, oligarchs and corrupt politicians like Trump aren't even Zionists nor Christian nationalists, they’re predators who feed off our resources and destroy the foundations of democracy and the rule of law.

Watching my daughter grow up without evangelical religious trauma is breathtaking. She’s not scared of a hell, or a god who would condemn her to everlasting torture, and she’s never heard of a rapture. Growing up without that fear really does something good to a young person.
