Let’s substitute Jews killing Christian children and using their blood to make matzoh and see if this justification for lying cuts it

JD Vance acknowledges the cat and dog stories are urban legends and then rationalizes it (via CNN): “If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do."

One group who is consistently enthusiastic about Trump and in my experience has been since 2015 is right-wing anti-semites. It's fascinating to me that Jewish conservatives are so blasé about this, but I personally am not.

they live inside addled memories of bygone days when they and people like them were in charge they try to prop those memories up in the present with smears and fantasies and grievances they can delude weak minds, and rally greedy ones but they're not a majority

סליחה, כרמלי. סליחה שלא עצרנו כשעוד היה אפשר. סליחה שנתנו להם להרוג אותך. הלוואי שראית ושמעת אותנו. הלוואי שלמרות שראית בעיניים את הרצח הנורא של אמא כנרת, גילית שאבא אשל ואחייך אלון ואור, הגיסה שלך ירדן והאחיינית שלך גפן, שרדו. הלוואי שראית איך החברות שלך נאבקו כדי שתחזרי…

It's actually not the purpose of the convention. It is to win. Uncommitted voters are undermining that effort and the DNC is correct to reserve the podium for Harris delegates. Again, though, there are Harris delegates who will reflect the majority American viewpoint about the…

WATCH: @RepJayapal says a member of the "uncommitted" movement should have been given a speaking slot at the Democratic National Convention. "At the end of the day, this is about everyone being seen and heard," she tells @IAmAmnaNawaz

Donald Trump's former White House press secretary, Stephanie Grisham, speaks at the DNC and says she will vote for Kamala Harris. "I saw him when the cameras were off," she says about Trump. "Behind closed doors, Trump mocks his supporters. He calls them 'basement dwellers.'…

Trump consistently dodged service, mocking our military and POWs. He has no right to speak on stolen valor or veterans, period.


let's get this trending!

Feeling overwhelmed with gratitude toward Joe Biden for making this sacrifice. His incredible presidency has surely been the best of my lifetime and one of the greatest in history. His achievements in office will make the country a better place for decades to come. What a legacy.

I just want to take a step back and say that I think the Supreme Court just fundamentally altered the structure and nature of democracy in America. It awards the president the measure of power and immunity that is much, much closer to a king or emperor than an elected official.

🚨The Supreme Court rules that President Trump has "absolute immunity" from criminal prosecution for all "official acts" he took while in office. The vote is 6–3 with all three liberals dissenting. supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf…

Justice Sotomayor's dissent is one of the most terrified and terrifying pieces of judicial writing I've ever encountered—she lists the criminal acts that presidents can now take with immunity and says "the president is now a king above the law." supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf…

I kept listening to the news, podcasts, etc for ANYONE to refer to this issue...still waiting.

Hamas is not offering to return hostages. It is holding the corpses of civilians it murdered hostage. Think about that for a moment and ask yourself why so much of American media is sanitizing Hamas's every decision.



When will more people be willing to see the radicalism of SJP?

Let me tell you something: if you're demanding that Hillel be fully removed from UC Santa Cruz, you're an antisemite. Hillel is a cultural lifeline for Jewish students. If you want it gone - that means you want Jews gone. There's no negotiating on the antisemitic nature of…

This is terrifying and dismaying. What is happening??

Jewish students get harassed trying to leave @Columbia’s campus tonight. You can hear someone yell “Yehudim Yehudim”- “Jews Jews.” They curse and yell “go back to Poland.” Antisemitism has become the new normal here.



Devastated by the news about Heavyweight. Truly a gem that reveals humanity in so many ways. I look forward to what Jonathan, Stevie, and Kalila do next but I will forever miss @heavyweight

Scoop: Spotify is canceling two critically acclaimed podcasts -- @heavyweight and Stolen. Stolen won a Pulitzer Prize and Peabody Award for its most recent season while Heavyweight just appeared today on the @nytimes's best podcasts of the year list bloomberg.com/news/articles/…



This is important analysis and insight for many of us operating without the same level of expertise --which is most of us.

🧵 A few observations regarding Israel’s operation at Al Shifa Hospital. When I was in seat, it was broadly suspected/understood as far back as 2014 that Hamas used the Al Shifa Hospital complex as a command center and base for operations.

Insane footage on Russian social media from Makhachkala in the North Caucasus region, where there have been several anti-Semitic protests this weekend. A crowd of people, some with Palestinian flags, broke into the airport in search of passengers on a flight from Tel Aviv.


Finale of @RezDogsFX so extraordinary. A balm in a stormy time


You start to see how they could end up with Ron Johnson
