    Some did, but the whole point of Israel was a place for European countries to send their Jewish populations.

    People who even if they were also ethnically Semitic, were descended from people who voluntarily left the area generations ago.

    They could have immigrated there, instead European governments just declared it was theirs now.

    Like, imagine if every American with Irish heritage were granted birthright citizenship there and the people who never left are shoved down into an ever shrinking slice of land. That’s what’s happening



  • The nearly $2.5 million investment — shared first with POLITICO — aims to help break Republican supermajorities in deep-red states and strengthen voter engagement efforts across the U.S. It’s part of a broader push for increased local support by the DNC, which says it’s increased state party funding by 25 percent during Jaime Harrison’s tenure as chair.

    Chump change compared to what the “victory fund” nonsense is robbing from the state parties…

    This is 50k per state if split evenly, but it says 400k to Florida…

    Edit:

    which says it’s increased state party funding by 25 percent during Jaime Harrison’s tenure as chair.

    Just highlights how much the “victory fund” has fucked over state parties ever since Hillary dreamed it up in 2015.




  • We could be at the end of Bernie’s second term right now if Hillary hadn’t staged a hostile takeover of the DNC during the primary.

    trump would have been nothing more than a dated joke from TV reruns, Covid would have been handled appropriately, pretty much everyone would be measurably better off.

    Dont forget what the moderate branch stole from us, they’re still the ones running shit. That’s not just an expression, literally the same people from back then are still running the DNC and in the current administration, they’re literally still the ones running shit.







  • Remember when Joe Biden said “no one is above the law”?

    It’s against US and international law to supply munitions for a genocide, and while it will never happen; Joe confessing to his crimes and resigning would blow all the “both sides are the same” arguments straight out of the water.

    But he won’t.

    Both sides aren’t the same. Except they do both think they’re above the law, and that the other “team” shouldn’t also be above the law.

    I’m thankful to Bernie and the Squad for being a few rational voices insisting everyone should follow the law and not just people who disagree with them.
