This is the "gun" that Trump, Noem, Bovino, and every other administration official claims the victim was brandishing that justified him being pushed, tackled, shot, and killed.

Democracy Docket: UT reviewed its voter rolls for noncitizens. It found one. Who never voted

In a revelation that undercuts the GOP narrative of widespread noncitizen voting in elections, a Utah audit of over 2 million voter registrations found only one noncitizen — and they never even voted.

A few years before Covid, I visited Russia. When I left the former USSR, I had a great sense of relief. Today, I am on my way to Mexico. I have the same sense of relief when I left the US. 😢

The good news is that SIX seasoned federal prosecutors in Minnesota have resigned rather than engage in a bogus 'investigation' of Renee Good and her wife rather than investigating Good's killer.

The bad news is that there are now six fewer honest, dedicated federal prosecutors with DOJ.

“Are we really safer in a world where might makes right?”

J Street President @jeremybenami.bsky.social argues that Jewish history and values point to one answer: Our safety comes from democracy, rule of law and human rights – not strongmen and repression.

Antisemitism isn’t partisan. It shows up on the far right and on the fringe left – and sometimes, criticism of Israel crosses the line into antisemitism.

How we respond matters: Not by weaponizing it for politics, but through education, accountability and honest conversation.

Israel’s decision to build settlements in the E1 area is designed to split the West Bank into two. It would tear communities apart, bury hopes of a Palestinian state and entrench an unequal reality.

A dignified, democratic future requires saying no.

We’re proud to join our progressive Jewish partners in condemning Trump’s sweeping travel ban, which bars Palestinians from the US – a fear-based policy that undermines peace, weakens the Palestinian Authority and moves us further from stability.

Their animals were slaughtered.

This is settler violence – not isolated, not accidental – and it’s spreading with the protection of Israel’s government.

Biden wasn’t perfect. Def had issues, some missteps…. Kinda like a normal, thoughtful, fallable human would.
But he wasn’t a lying POS crook. I respected him. I voted for him. I stand by him.

Most American Jews have never seen what’s happening in the West Bank – the settlements, the displacement, the violence toward Palestinian families.

The evidence is clear. It’s time we face it – and act. 🧵

Announcing 19 new settlements to deliberately block a Palestinian state isn’t security. It’s a conscious assault on Palestinian sovereignty and Israel’s democratic future.

The Palestinian people, like the Jewish people, deserve self-determination, freedom and full civil rights.
