One reason I love being Jewish. In our tradition, G-d absolutely does make mistakes.
Indeed "Israel" means "Wrestles with El [G-d]", because Jacob spent all night wrestling with G-d before his reunion with Esau.
Wrestling with G-d is at the heart of Judaism.

It says a lot about our political media environment that Democrats are called upon to defend things they never said and Republicans are allowed to emerge unscathed for things they're literally recorded saying.

2. His family arrived legally under an immigration law MAGA wants to repeal
3. His father killed a woman while driving drunk, a crime for which MAGA aims to deport immigrants
And much more. Read it.
