Happy to announce that I am joining @BrookingsFP after more than four years at @TheNatlInterest Very much looking forward to what this next chapter brings.
At least 38 million people have been displaced by the post-9/11 wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere. That's roughly equivalent to the population of California. [1/3]
NEWS: 18 Democratic U.S. Senators voted to block arms sales to Israel Voting YES : Heinrich, Hirono, Kaine, King, Markey, Merkley, Ossoff, Sanders, Schatz, Smith, Warren, Welch, Durbin, Van Hollen, Shaheen, Lujan, Warnock, Murphy. All Republicans voted NO
Honestly didn’t think they could top the Gaza pier stunt for pure absurdity but paying consultants to come up with an aid delivery plan after you’ve spent billions helping obliterate Gaza’s aid delivery infrastructure is making me reconsider.
Scoop: American national security consulting company Orbis gave the Israeli government a plan for how to securely deliver humanitarian aid in Gaza, according to two Israeli officials. My story on @axios axios.com/2024/11/19/isr…
Sen. Van Hollen announces he'll support the Joint Resolutions of Disapproval against weapons to Israel's Netanyahu govt. "…President Biden has failed to hold Netanyahu accountable—ignoring US law & undercutting his own stated policies as well as America’s interests and values."
Quite a gift for the incoming Trump administration
🚨 President Biden has authorized the first use of U.S.-supplied long-range missiles by Ukraine for strikes inside Russia, per NYT
This is a pretty clear signal in a Gulf paper that the Abraham Accords era is over. Saudi reconciliation with Iran is more likely at this point and is already happening.. via @FaisalJAbbas arabnews.com/node/2579191
New Poll: The majority of American Jews demand: 1) Stop offensive US weapons to Israel (62%) 2) Resume funding @UNRWA (66%) 3) Sanction Israeli leaders (66%) 4) Increase aid to Palestinians (72%) 5) Establishment of a Palestinian state (72%) jstreet.org/wp-content/upl…
News: Sen. Van Hollen says he's concerned the 30-day deadline US gave Israel to improve Gaza conditions was "a political attempt" to convince voters the Biden-Harris admin cared about Gaza. Comes as US says it won't hold Israel accountable to the deadline.zeteo.com/p/dramatically…
The appointment of Mike Huckabee as Ambassador demonstrates that the definition of ‘pro-Israel’ in today’s Republican Party stands in stark contrast to the definition embraced by the overwhelming majority of Jewish Americans.
Hamas agreed to Biden’s ceasefire. Netanyahu didn’t, so Biden changed the terms to suit him, and presented the new deal to Hamas, who continue to insist on an end to the war. The problem isn’t that Hamas doesn’t agree with Biden’s proposal, it’s that Biden no longer does.
The United States is making it clear it does not support a permanent halt to the violence in Gaza. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan today blamed Hamas for the lack of a ceasefire deal, saying: “Whatever Hamas is saying publicly, what they are communicating to mediators…
more americans in the lowest income brackets voting republican instead of democrat, for the first time in decades:
The problem with liberalism is that it rests on a fundamental contradiction that cannot be resolved. It will always fail, it will always collapse, and this explains everything about our current moment. Liberals try to hold two commitments at once: on the one hand, they are…
The problem isn't that we lack a liberal media ecosystem to compete with the right, it's that we have a liberal media ecosystem whose biggest platforms are committed to flattering the assumptions of liberal elites instead of informing and mobilizing an actual political movement.
67 children are being killed *every day* on average in Gaza
⭕️ Middle East It’s just past 2 a.m. in Gaza, Ramallah, and Beirut. Here’s a summary of today’s key developments: 📍In Gaza: ➤ At least 39 Palestinians were killed and 123 others wounded in Israeli airstrikes across Gaza in the last 24 hours, according to the Palestinian…
“Democrats understandably have a hard time fathoming why Americans would put our democracy at risk, but we miss the reality that our democracy is part of what angers them. Many voters have come to associate democracy with globalization, corruption, financial capitalism,…
@MorningConsult daily consumer sentiment has already began flipping for Democrats and Republicans
This is Joe Biden's legacy.
Nearly 70% of Gaza war dead are women and children, UN says bbc.in/4fH3RfP
Latest numbers: across the seven battleground states, the '20-'24 swing towards Trump was ~3.1 pts. Across the other 43 states (+DC), it was ~6.7 pts. Bottom line: the Harris campaign swam impressively against some very strong underlying currents.
I am reposting this thread from last April on Biden's arrogance and moral failure constituting an act of political suicide in the election and leading to a Trump victory.
1/ Put aside Biden’s ruinous moral failure on Gaza and on the related current US campus crises; I am shocked that he and his team appear in denial about the political suicide he is committing as a result.
