In Fighting for Every Black Child, Did I Betray My Own? (Gift Article)
A decade ago, I made a decision about my daughter’s education that I hoped would challenge New York City’s separate and unequal school system. Now 16, she thinks I made the wrong choice.

Macklemore says “free Palestine” and the ADL applauds him losing gigs for it. Kanye West puts out a song called “Heil Hitler” the org can’t be bothered to have an opinion on it. Instead, they insert themselves into the concert venues to do trainings on hate symbols.
In addition, the ADL has been working to put together a "best practices" guide which will include training venue workers on anti-Semitic symbols, statements and other totems. Those materials will be available to workers at both of Ye's shows.

This is the author's evidence of "the left" hiding "positive" things that Trump has done -- the networks refusing to air a speech in which he spread malicious lies about our democratic institutions. Doesn't name a *single* actual good thing Trump has supposedly done that's been hidden from people.
The most recent snub came on July 16, when Trump tried to deliver a national address on election integrity. ABC News and NBC News ignored it entirely. CBS News aired a few minutes. Why?

Legacy media never fails to ask politicians, “Do you believe Israel has a right to exist?” You’ll never hear: “Do you believe Palestine has a right to exist?” They scream antisemitism at criticism of Israel, while their goal is to prevent a Palestinian state. These receipts prove the hypocrisy.

The claim that peace cannot exist between Israelis and Palestinians until Palestine recognizes the right of Israel to exist is predicated on a lie against Palestinians

🟢 NEW: Hamas says it has submitted the Palestinian factions’ formal response to the roadmap plan for implementing the second phase of President Trump’s Gaza proposal, which it says was delivered to the movement by Board of Peace representative Nickolay Mladenov on April 19.

According to a Hamas statement, representatives of Hamas, other Palestinian factions, and mediators from Egypt, Qatar, and Türkiye held a series of meetings in Cairo over the past week that resulted in a “unified national position,” which was presented Friday.

Hamas said the factions’ response stresses that the first phase of the plan must be implemented in full, “particularly with regard to the humanitarian protocol and the cessation of all forms of aggression” against Palestinians in Gaza. It also calls for full implementation of the roadmap’s provisions on the entry of the Gaza Administrative Committee (NCAG), a complete Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, and reconstruction efforts, ultimately leading to “our people’s goals of establishing their state and securing their right to self-determination.”

Hamas said its delegation will remain in Cairo for further talks with mediators and the Palestinian factions aimed at advancing implementation of any agreement.
