👀 Note for all skittish moderate Democratic electeds/strategists and beltway reporters covering politics: This is now the second major national poll in as many week showing Trump is now under water on the issue of immigration. Reuters/Ipsos now has Trump on immigration issue: 45-46

Dear Dems: Polling shows only *generalized* approval of Trump on immigration, but broad opposition to the lawless specifics. If you don't engage on Abrego Garcia and other illegal kidnappings, you only *help* Trump subsume all that under "keeping out illegals." newrepublic.com/article/1941...

Wow. Watch this from Zohran Mamdani. It looks like the exact "fight" and "conviction" people are hopelessly asking for from the people in charge of the Democratic party:

Here's a quote from Mahmoud Khalil: "I would say that the liberation of Palestine and the Palestinians and the Jewish people are intertwined. They go hand in hand. Anti-Semitism and any form of racism has no place on campus and in this movement.” www.cnn.com/business/liv...

Has there ever been a more challenging time to do social media well? Between competing with folks who create excellent content full time on TikTok/IG Reels and the stratification of Mastadon, X, Bluesky, Threads... it feels a bit much right now.

Calling for Respect, Freedom, and Security for All Is Not Antisemitic
My obligation to critique the Israeli state comes from my own Jewish tradition, a tradition which had to defend itself from genuine antisemitism.

It’s fucking wild how much more attention a person of South Asian descent gets in politics for being part of the tiny anti-Black group that embraces Republican fascism instead of, say, being the actual serving Vice President of the United States.

(Or any of the millions of others who don’t buy into the farce of respectability and the model minority myth.) For anyone asking, I’m the official spokesperson for South Asian people in America, and we don’t fuck with Vivek or “Nikki”.
