Silence Is Not an Option
But you can still speak out and stay safe.

Imagine if your child went to a concert & was taken hostage by terrorists after 400 of their fellow concert-goers were massacred & the world ignored your kid or celebrated his plight.

There's so much bias against Jewish people & it's heartbreaking!

On this two year anniversary of the brutal October attack on Israel, let's see the last 732 days have taken us all.
As a Jew... Remembering October 7, 2023
Two years ago, on October 7, 2023, an attack began when over 4,000 rockets were fired at Israel. Reflections on the past 732 days.

Trump & Texas GOP moved first. Their politicians are rigging their maps to cheat, ignore voters & keep things in their favor.

Now California must act.

By Nov 4, voters choose our maps.
(Ballots begin arriving October 6; vote YES on Prop 50 & return your ballot ASAP, no stamp needed)

It’s not so easy when you are Jewish (2% of the US population and 0.2% of the world population) and antisemitism is on the rise.

It’s far from certain that James Comey will be indicted

After all, Jeanine Pirro struggled getting indictments in DC

But even if charges are brought, given Trump’s tampering, a judge could still dismiss the case

Because in America, we don’t decide guilt before determining if there’s even a crime

Their elected leaders won’t even free them, over the years they’ve turned down 5 opportunities to live in peace. It’s time you realize the truth and stop letting that movement destroy your country too.

Jews never left Israel.
1899 Colonize meant to set up a Jewish colony in our indigenous homeland.
Not modern day usage of colonize.
How do we know? At that time, the mid east was either French or British Empire. Brits didn’t establish an American colony, Jews re-established Israel.

Despite claims from Trump that the man who shot Charlie Kirk was part of a left-wing conspiracy, investigators find no evidence to back that claim.

According to NBC News early Saturday morning, three insiders claimed they're "coming up dry", in searching for a link.

They took away a woman’s right to choose

Then they took equity from Black people

Medicaid benefits from people of limited means

Food from schoolchildren

The right of Hispanic people to live without fear of persecution

And now they want to take our First Amendment rights

MUST
FIGHT

Do you know how many the right wing has and how influential they’ve been, in particular to young white males? We can’t have too many. We need to reach as many people as possible and if podcasts are one way, then let’s flood the zone with them.
