- My husband's cousin Doron, a former IDF colonel and peace activist, was just arrested by the IDF. He is a deeply brave and principled opponent of the ongoing genocide. I am hoping for his safe return home soon.Retired IDF Colonel Doron Meinrath was arrested today by the IDF for protecting a Palestinian community in Khirbet a-Tawil in the occupied West Bank from settler violence. The IDF arrested him after declaring the area of a water cistern he was protecting a "closed military zone".
- Please define "fight," and be specific.Elissa Slotkin on Democratic division: "The whole debate doesn’t split down lines of Moderate vs. Progressive. It splits down lines of Fight versus Flight… and I am on Team Fight every single day of the week.”
- Every member of Congress, regardless of party, should be raising hell that Israel kidnapped American veterans and journalists in international waters. America first, right?
- This is exactly the right question to ask. Why is the Democratic Party bleeding voters, and how does it win those voters back? Why don't these voters believe that voting Democrat will make a meaningful, material difference in their lives? Why don't they trust Democratic leaders?Trump 2024 votes = 72,560,841 (50.9%) Trump 2020 votes = 74,223,369 (46.9%) Right now he has less votes in 24’ than 20’ (but votes are still being counted) So - is the story right now really massive realignment/mandate given Trump likely won’t reach Biden’s record 81M+ votes
