The Camp Auschwitz guy, Robert Packer, was pardoned yesterday & the ADL defended one of the most influential men on planet making a Nazi salute. Antisemitism is now fully defined now as campaigning for Palestinian liberation.

As Biden is touting his foreign policy achievements right now, increased our diplomatic capacity, haven’t needed to go to war, all I can think of is how @elivalley.bsky.social will draw this proud legacy speech.

Biden and Blinken touting their foreign policy “achievements” while two massive US-fueled wars are raging, is so ridiculous, akin to a pregnant teenager showing off her purity ring.

I’m in the hospital for severe pneumonia. It’s the most sick I’ve ever been. As I receive excellent medical care, IV antibiotics & supplemental oxygen, my heart bleeds more than ever for the people of Gaza. Destroying hospitals is unconscionable, a crime against humanity and G-d

I ordered 25 small and 20 medium moving boxes from UHaul as I’m preparing to move to a new apartment and a Christmas tree is what they delivered. WTF.

Everyone, follow @santitajackson.bsky.social

Yes, the cashier at Walmart should be able to afford rent and groceries with their paycheck. Yes, the person with cancer and $3 in their bank account should be able to treat their cancer without going into debt.

For a coupke hours drive, there is nothing ad enjoyable as a good audiobook book. Bad Faith by @swordsjew.bsky.social

Why I’m Running for Vice-Chair of the DNC. There’s a critical need for party reform: budget transparency, accountability, & democratic governance; banning dark money; & outreach to voters we’ve abandoned, in particular, the working class & new immigrants. www.thenation.com/article/poli...

Israel’s idea of a ceasefire is continuing to bomb, to enforce the ceasefire. More escalation to deescalate.

Yesterday in Kensington Philadelphia w/RAWtools, I learned how to transform a gun into a garden tool. It brought to mind the words of Anne Frank: “I can feel the sufferings of millions and yet, if I look up into the heavens, I think that it will all come right, that this cruelty too will end”

Check out this microphone Shane Claiborne of RAWtools Philly is on. It’s made out of melted down guns. For real!

BREAKING Arrest warrants issued for Netanyahu, Galant, & Hamas leader

Senator Lindsey Graham just used Hiroshima as a justification to let Israel finish the job. Even for Graham this was shocking.

This White House effort is disgusting & embarrassing. Senators trying to block offensive weapons to Israel aren’t aiding Hamas, they’re trying to stop genocide, starvation, & massive violations of US laws. They’re saving Palestinian lives & the last shred of US honor www.huffpost.com/entry/biden-...

Sam Bankman Fried to be announced for Dept of Treasury.

I made a blocklist for some of the new showing up to troll anti trans folks. No oxygen for these schmoes! bsky.app/profile/did:...

Pure bigotry, though not a surprise from an outlet shamelessly committed to being pro-Israel in its stories.

Go Jewish Left! My peeps.

AIPAC doesn’t advocate for American Jews. It advocates for a foreign country and the interest of Zionists, of which there are more Christians in America that subscribe to the ideology than there are Jews in the world. Get a grip and stop trying to smear AOC for naming reality.

We’re watching de jure annexation in real time of northern Gaza. They’re emptying the land, making it sterile, and then the settlers will move in and build their homes on top of the bones of the people being killed there right now with US weapons & US-permitted starvation. #BidensLegacy

Along with this, he should halt weapons to Israel. Instead, he’s letting the remainder of his legacy be allowing Israel to block humanitarian aid, flooding Ukraine with weapons, and gleefully welcoming Trump into the White House.

Biden should be spending every minute of the rest of his time in office signing executive orders on student debt relief, environmental protections, reproductive, LGBTQ+, & immigrant rights. even if they all get reversed in January, at least he’d show the democrats championing progressive populism.

Jewish safety can’t be achieved without Palestinian liberation

People say “the radical left” and it’s just people who don’t think anyone should go bankrupt because they get a cancer diagnosis.

Walls, bombs, & guns cannot eradicate antisemitism. Only love, nonviolence, & justice can do that.

Call your Senators to urge them to support Bernie Sanders Joint Resolutions of Disapproval to block US weapons for Israel’s genocide. Use this number to be automatically connected to their offices 202-224-3121. The Senate will vote on it next week.
