@uncommittedmvmtFighting for a Democratic Party that represents the anti-war, pro-Palestinian majority. #NotAnotherBomb
We must keep up the pressure on VP Harris to take action to ensure #NotAnothetBomb. Join tens of thousands whoโve sent a message to her: turn the page on the disastrous Biden-Harris Gaza policy, save lives, stop the bombs, and unite the party. Sign here: bit.ly/nabpetition
โThe inexplicable reality I was experiencing, being disempowered from engaging our communities to block Trump, that kind of prioritization of the donor class over the working class was happening across our country. The problem the Democratic Party has is systemic.โ -@AZAlawieh
These 52 Democrats voted to give Trump the power to shut down any nonprofit he wants. The NAACP, ACLU, Planned Parenthood, no organization would be safe. Shameful. clerk.house.gov/evs/2024/roll4โฆ
US House voted 256-145 to pass HR 9495โshort of 2/3 required. Would empower Treasury Sec. to revoke nonprofit tax status of orgs based on judgment they're โterrorist-supporting.โ Concerns it'd help government (esp. Trump's) attack pro-Palestine groups. 52 Democrats in favor.
Israel is blocking aid into Gaza and starving Palestinians while continuing to receive US-made weapons paid for by our tax dollars. The White House is failing to do what US law requires, and what the majority of Americans want: Stop sending weapons to Israel.
NEW: The Biden administration confirms Israel will face no policy consequences for the lack of aid getting into Gaza following Blinkenโs threat to potentially withdraw military assistance if key demands arenโt met in 30 days (in a letter sent days before the US election)
UPDATE: We killed the bill.
Will Dems fight back? Tomorrow, the House votes on a bill that "authorizes broad and easily abused new powers for the executive branch." H.R. 9495. Indivisible & 100 pro-democracy groups oppose it. If House Dems vote against it, it dies. Tell your Rep. assets.aclu.org/live/uploads/2โฆ
HOLY MOLY. So in the first day back post-election, Josh Gottheimer joins a minority of Dems in a losing vote to give Trump MORE power to go after his enemies. His likely opponent in the NJ Gov primary Mikie Sherrill votes against it. clerk.house.gov/evs/2024/roll4โฆ
This is a dangerous threat to free speech. No one person should have the authority to silence organizations that dare to challenge government policies or speak uncomfortable truths. rollingstone.com/politics/politโฆ
๐จ H.R. 9495 is a giant threat to free speech. It gives Trump unchecked power to label any nonprofit as "terrorist-supporting" without evidence or due processโopening the door to crush his opposition and silence dissent. theintercept.com/2024/11/10/truโฆ
THIS GIVES TRUMP NEW POWER TO CRUSH HIS ENEMIES. This bill would give Trump never before seen power to shut down crucial orgs that protect our rights and punish those he views as his enemies. TAKE ACTION NOW TO STOP IT: jvp.org/defenddissent
๐จACT NOW TO DEFEND PROGRESSIVE MOVEMENTS๐จ Tomorrow, Congress will vote on a bill that would grant Trump unprecedented power to shut down nonprofit organizations. Write to Congress, jvp.org/defenddissent
Our statement on the election results.
It looks like Kamala Harris will lose the largely Muslim south end of Dearborn, Michigan, where Joe Biden won 88 per cent of the vote in 2020. โThatโs a bracing slide,โ @vcunningham writes. nyer.cm/gPd7d8P
Just adding that I personally know some of the leaders of @uncommittedmvmt โ theyโre principled activists who devoted real energy trying to push Harris on Gaza. They didnโt succeed, so their strategy isnโt above criticism, but their motivations are beyond reproach.
I know a lot of us are bitter, disgusted & infuriated over a year of Israel's genocide in Gaza and US support for it. If there were a compelling case that voting a particular way in November would put an end to this genocide, then we should fight/pressure/shame everyone to voteโฆ
Honestly if you see someone attacking @uncommittedmvmt - one of the most strategic efforts I've ever seen, from organizers of unbelievable integrity - literally just ignore them, like forever. That's a toxic person who's not interested in making the world a better place.
Grateful for the uncommitted movement and all its work. We have so much work to do and conspiracy theories and ridiculous take downs donโt make any of it easier.
โOne co-founder of the Uncommitted movement will vote for Harris โ the other will not.โ forward.com/fast-forward/6โฆ
Weird how the US policy of imposing zero consequences for anything the Israeli government does only seems to produce worse and worse behavior.
BREAKING: Israel officially notified the UN it is canceling the agreement that regulates UNRWA operations in Israel, the West Bank and Gaza
Even more offensive given that the โsemesterโ is just something the admin made up. The law requires suspending military aid as soon as they are aware that humanitarian aid is being restricted, which they clearly are. The 30 days is just a way to continue not to enforce the law.
Watch Matt Lee call out Miller for joking as Israel starves Gaza. Miller: Theyโve failed to implement the things we recommended, weโre not at end of the 30 days Lee: So itโs a fail Miller: Itโs not the end of the semester (laughs) Lee: I suspect the levity is a little bitโฆ
Slanderously portraying comrades with whom one has strategic differences as controlled opposition obeying commands of powerful forces, engaged in subterfuge and betrayal: this is a very bad, toxic thing thatโs happening on the anti-imperialist left and itโs a gift to our enemies.
Uncommitted was always clearly within the confines of the Democratic Party. If you disagree with the tactics and/ or simply dislike the people running it, you can just say that. You donโt need to create a conspiracy about it.
The intensity of the pushback against voting uncommitted is bizarre. This push is still within the confines of ultimately not messing with Bidenโs chances in Novemberโฆitโs a way of registering dissent while keeping people engaged in the voting process. Itโs feedback, take it.
