DEAN: What's the tariff on bananas? LUTNICK: Generally 10% DEAN: Walmart has already increased the cost of bananas by 8% LUTNICK: If you build in America, there is no tariff DEAN: We cannot build bananas in America

NO *whacks with newspaper* BAD SENATOR. Lean IN to the news cycle! IN!

Some May highlights from Jared Polis: - vetoed a bill banning landlords from using price-fixing algorithims - vetoed a bill protecting patients from surprise ambulance bills by private equity–owned health care firms -vetoed a bill ending barriers to union organizing

First, it was the Jews, then it was the Blacks, and now, it's the LGBTQ community.

I truly hope so with back up!!

It's never been about #Palestine or #Gaza. #anbtisemitism #terrorism #jewsky

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

My thoughts are with our Jewish neighbors after another horrifying antisemitic attack, this time in Boulder. Hate has no place in our country.

🎂 Today’s my 9th second birthday, celebrating nine years past a last-ditch surgery to beat a 12-18 month prognosis for a rare cancer. Still NED 👍 Side effects: Being around to drive the people I adore crazy—and everyone else, for that matter—plus a bit of neuropathy. All manageable. #fuckcancer

American political discourse surrounding Israel-Palestine is just throwing out phrases like Pokémon cards ("two state solution," "right to exist," "only democracy in the Middle East") without any consideration as to how accurately they describe the situation on the ground.

I know the Orthodox Jews who support Trump won't want to hear this, but there isn't really a way to enforce a law banning trans-affirming healthcare in the name of fighting "gender-affirming care" that would not at least potentially ensnare circumcisions.

Love to see a community come together when ICE Nazis show up to their neighborhood and send them packing ….👏👏👏👏 South Park neighborhood of San Diego

Mohamed Soliman, the perpetrator of the terror attack in Boulder, Colorado is another example of the depraved evil and antisemitism associated with the inflammatory phrase, "Globalize the Intifada." We must stand with the Jewish community during this time of profound sorrow and devastation.

A terrorist, antisemitic attack has struck peaceful protestors in Boulder, CO—just before the Jewish holiday of Shavuot. This is not a time for silence. Not from elected leaders. Not from institutions. Not from neighbors. Jews deserve safety. Full stop. #Boulder #Antisemitism #Shavuot #StopHate

Yeah no. Sorry but this kind of white washing isn’t gonna pass muster. It’d be one thing if they were talking about the gutting of USAid or the FDA. But Trump himself repeatedly said on the campaign trail that he was gonna do mass deportations. Who did they think he was gonna deport? /1

Unbelievably horrified by this attack in Boulder. We don’t know the full story of the attacker, but no matter what it is, let me be clear: Senseless, antisemitic attacks do not help Palestinians, Jews, or Israelis. Committing terror attacks against people standing for hostages is disgusting.

Kat was incredibly smart to turn off the comments because people cannot be even remotely trusted to discuss anything in regards to this without immediately either calling her a Zionist or a Jew-killer.

Having seen both allegations back to back *again* - there is no evidence, nor any reason to think, that either dark or light skin phenotypes of Eastern European Ashkenazim is due to mass rape. (The last major significant contribution of outside DNA is from southern Europe: Italy and Greece.)

Well, after some of the posts in the last 24 hours, I’m sure the responses to multiple Jews in Boulder, Colorado being set on fire will be totally normal and that nobody will try to justify it as legitimate based on assumptions they make about the political beliefs of the people who were set on fire

I need leftist gentiles to log off. Just do it. Yall have done enough between JB and justifying burning people alive.
