Today marks the third yahrzeit of my beloved sister Jessica - mom, reading teacher, Orthodox Jew, fierce advocate for justice, incredible cook and margarita maker. You never know what’s ahead. Never imagined we’d lose her to idiopathic encephalitis at age 51. www.jfrej.org/news/2021/11...

Battacharya and RFJ Jr. don't have "unconventional ideas." They have deeply dangerous, unproven "theories" based on conspiracies. Any and all media outlets referring to "unconventional ideas" will be fully complicit in the many deaths resulting from dismantling the public health system.

Just got in a Lyft and the driver was like “o jennifer you are looking very pretty today” and I thought to myself I AM GOING TO BE… I said to him “thank you but I’m not interested in your comments about my appearance, they make me uncomfortable”. Also turned on safety tools.

Hatred of Palestinians for simply existing is driving us into fascism. We fund and arm a fascist Israeli govt. AIPAC and right-wing billionaires (Jewish and Christian) are making decisions about who gets elected, what we can say, and how we can say it. And AIPAC-funded Democrats are helping them.
