This is the type of Jewish person that I have known all my life.
Then Gaza woke us up! There are still wonderful Jews like Bernie Sanders and the Jewish Currents magazine standing up against the Israeli/American GENOCIDE in Gaza.
But look how AIPAC/Zionism completely controls Congress.
Love this (scroll to end): stand your ground.
(whole show is great analysis, as usual).

Hello Prime Minister Mark Carney @mark-carney.bsky.social
Canada needs this ⬇️
A wealth tax; not corporate welfare, please.
Here is a 2-minute video of my friend and fellow member of the Gerald Huff Fund for Humanity, Scott Ellis who is also a member of the Patriotic Millionaires, speaking at a presser on the steps of the Capitol on Tax Day:

Buttigieg, who won't say that Israelis are conducting a genocide with US funding and support.
Israel and the US have:
Murdered 10s of thousands of civilians
Disappeared thousands
Imprisoned more children than any other country
Evaporated Palestinians, using a weapon that leaves no trace of life.
Cantor Fitzgerald — the firm previously run by Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, now controlled by his sons, and which also custodies the reserves for offshore stablecoin issuer Tether — put $10 million into a Republican-focused crypto super PAC led by a Tether executive.
A historic number of Senators voted to stop the transfer of bulldozers and bombs to the Israeli military tonight. And we will continue to grow and get louder until we have stopped arming Israel. Fund people, not bombs. Stop arming Israel.
HERE WHERE WE LIVE IS OUR COUNTRY: THE STORY OF THE JEWISH BUND just debuted at #4 on the New York Times bestseller list
He divorced his wife to marry his intern, which tells you all need to know about dickface Jessie Waters
And will continue to do so.
Today, the Liberals rejected our NDP motion to ban surveillance pricing - a dystopian practice that will drive up costs for Canadians if we allow it to take root.
The NDP is the only party fighting to protect you from getting ripped off at the checkout.
5/ But honestly? I don’t see politics in terms of access to the powerful. Making the changes we need depends on how much momentum we can build behind solutions that confront power and benefit the 99%.
That’s the real work. And it’s going to take all of us.
4/ Maybe I’m just nostalgic for the kind of politics I've watched my parents practice throughout their lives — always soft on people, hard on the issues. I think that’s what the country needs right now.
Prime Minister Carney and NDP leader Avi Lewis sitting at a table having a meeting.
1/ Prime Minister @mark-carney.bsky.social and I had a warm and productive first conversation today.
I shared the NDP’s concerns about the cost-of-living crisis facing Canadians, including the creepy practice of surveillance pricing.
Today is the 42nd Anniversary of the Canada Health Act, the perfect time for the Liberals to enforce the act and protect public healthcare.
But will they?
Effective 2025 federal tax rates paid by these corporations:
Alphabet: 8.01%
AT&T: 4.6%
Meta: 3.57%
General Motors: 3.09%
Amazon: 1.37%
Exxon Mobil: 1.31%
Disney: -1.57%
CVS Health: -3.88%
Income tax rate paid by the typical American: 14.5%
This is what a rigged system looks like.
Buttigieg, who can't even say that Israelis are conducting a genocide with US funding and support. Israel and the US have:
Murdered 10s of thousands of civilians
Disappeared thousands
More children in prison than any other country
Evaporated Palestinians, using a weapon that leaves no trace of life.
Anyone know whether today is a ‘ceasefire’ day or a ‘destroy your civilisation’ day yet?
All this says is that the US is no longer a democracy.
The US is bought and sold by the highest bidder.
Americans should feel nothing but shame that recent generations have allowed this to happen. Shameful that with all their freedom, with all their education that this is where America has landed.
While Trump prepares for the next round of an Israeli driven war against Iran, there is a dramatic collapse in US public support for Israel. Israeli dissident Miko Peled spells it out
