Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH) yells at the GOP over union organizing bill: “Heaven forbid we pass something that’s going to help the damn workers in the United States of America.”
He adds: “Now stop talking about Dr. Seuss, and work with us …”
@yashar
I am pro-Israel and anti-Hamas. I unreservedly condemn this shooting. If it was a hate crime it is contemptable and inexcusable. It should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law
Here is my opinion

He and Fox know it. That's why they are pretending it was a joke rather than a mistake. The mistake was inexcusable and actionable. This pathetic attempt to pretend it was something else fails.
@lauferlaw
@RepMattGaetz
He is absolutely correct (I don't think I have ever before said that of Rep. Gaetz). The GOP is no more. The current Republican Party is a personality cult. The saddest part is that the personality they revere is so unworthy.
@benshapiro
It has been more than 3 weeks since Candace Owens said "If you are an honest person, you did not think [Kanye's] tweet was antisemitic," adding "It's like you cannot even say the word 'Jewish' without people getting upset". Ben Schapiro still has not removed her from his platform

Thank your this thread. We can sometimes forget there is a larger society around us and we need to be respectful of others' traditions. Some rudimentary information is necessary so as to avoid a faux pas or two. Yashar koach.
@chelseahandler
I am paying attention, alarmed and fear for our nation. That said, the fact that you can publicly state your opinion without fear of arrest, let alone death, is rather strong proof that any comparison to the Holocaust is ridiculous. It is also (unintentionally) offensive to many.

The BDS movement which targets only one nation, holding it to different standards than any other nation is antisemitic.
Rather than fight antisemitism, you fight its definition.
You aid and abet antisemitism.
You are an antisemite.
You shame the office you hold.

It is important that people who see this know that trick-or-treating is not something members of his religious community would do. He nonetheless provided treats as a member of the greater Jersey City community.
@RepRashida
Let’s be clear: this whataboutism is a pathetically desperate strategy rooted in smearing those who demand that Rep. Omar be called to task for her anitsemitism. That Marjorie Taylor Greene is even more unfit to serve does not in any way absolve Rep. Omar.
@Dewey16222627
@ABC
I agree completely with your first sentence but not the second. I think it is time to de-politicize the process. The President has the right to name a nominee -- that's the election -- and if the nominee is qualified and within the mainstream, should be confirmed by the Senate.
Jewish Twitter. I have an unaffiliated friend with a woke teenage daughter confronted with a lot of anti-Israel sentiment. He is looking for some basic primers (videos) on Israel/the matzav providing a pro-Zionist (not anti-Palestinian) perspective for her. Any tips appreciated.

False. Rep Santos is not flailing and you are lucky he is your Representative.

Your obsession, treating Israel differently from all other nations, falls well within the IHRA working definition of antisemitism. You have literally become what you claim to oppose. Shame on you.

You routinely spout antisemitism. Now you virtue signal and pretend to care about it to attack the right.
You care about politics, not antisemitism, other than as a proponent of it.
Antisemitism is wrong an evil and that is true when it emanates from the right, the left, and you.
@RudiGeerts
My grandparents and mother made that crossing. My mother, then 2 or 3, strapped to my grandfather's back. There was a disagreement with the guide about whether she had to be drugged so as not to cry out. They then went to Portugal and eventually sailed to Cuba on the Serpa Pinto.
So Google translated the Hebrew for "We will continue to build in the Land of Israel" as "We will continue to build in Palestine". That only completely changes the meaning. Bad job
@Google

@MarkHertling
@lauferlaw
I very much hope you are correct. BUT I am a firm believer in both "don't count your chickens before they hatch" and "it ain't over until it's over". We need to continue arming Ukraine, and provide better arms and assistance until RU has actually lost/hostilities end.
@MuellerSheWrote

Holy crap. That's really the stage there? I'm not violating Godwin's Law because I'm not analogizing: that's a fucking swastika.
What an embarrassment. I am old enough to remember when the GOP complained that President Obama was not respectful of our allies because he moved a bust of Churchill within the white House.
@lauferlaw
@realDonaldTrump
Dude, He re-Tweeted an article showing that the bogus claim of voter fraud was recanted. Proving both that there was no voter fraud than that the President doesn't know what "recants" means.
@mehdirhasan
I see you are adopting tokenism. Shame on you.
You don't want non-Muslims defining Islamaphobia, so sit it out when it comes to defining antisemitism.
And here we go. After nearly four years of having complete amnesia about the national debt, unnecessary spending, and fiscal callousness, prominent Republicans are preparing to go all-in on hammering Biden on topics where they haven’t made a peep regarding Trump.

@SummerForPA
Shame on you.
If you have to lie it means you know something is wrong with your position.
AIPAC is spending against Ms. Lee because she is anti-Israel. You might not like it -- but at least tell the truth.
AIPAC supports pro-Israel progressives giving lie to your claim.
@RepDeanPhillips
Rep. Phillips, Thank you. As a proud Democrat, I fear that the far left wing of our Party is trying to take it down the path of the British Labour Party's "institutional" antisemitism. It's voices like yours that will, hopefully, prevent that from happening.
@JohnLyndon_
This is why the apartheid charge is so disturbing, wrong and counterproductive. Israel has many issues and problems, including serious ones related to inequality when it comes to its Arab citizens and communities. Pretending it is an apartheid state, however, is simply false.

Ironic that two of the three Representatives you reference are POC, yet the DSA slurs AIPAC by pretending it opposes progressives of color.
Pro-Israel PACs seem to be the only single-issue PACs attacked for supporting their issue. I wonder why. (((Hmmm)))

Hamas rejected a two month ceasefire in exchange for release of the hostages.
Hamas continues to hold more than 100 hostages in Gaza.
So for what are you advocating? Israel to surrender while the hostages remain in captivity?
Are you posturing or evil?

In complete contrast, the Iranian people I have met are largely lovely and wonderful.

@bethanyshondark
By your definition anything that is not "radical" OR does not claim "that all disparity is a result of ... discrimination" OR is "not enforced by a radical mob" -- is not fairly classified as "woke".
Well over 99% of what people call "woke" does not fall within your definition.
@apawlh
@JGreenblattADL
@RashidaTlaib
Assuming you are asking in good faith: Jews being the behind the scenes puppet masters controlling politics for profit are classic antisemitic tropes, as is the blood libel claim (poisoning water). Asserting that the "same people" are the anti-Palestinians makes it crystal clear.
@HadleySheley
There are always a sad few who think if they completely give up everything, they will get a pass. It never works. Not for the members of the V.N.J. who wanted to be part of the Volksgemeinschaft nor for those of the Yevsektsiya in the USSR who wanted to be good little Bolsheviks.
@skjask
A rare disagreement with you. Of course it would be better if people made aliyah for idealistic reasons (as my daughter, b'ezrat Hashem, will be doing soon). But yes, Israel is a back-up plan for galut Jewry -- and should be for any Jewish community facing danger.
@IlhanMN
It is "not uncommon" for a Member of Congress to divorce her husband and then marry a contractor she uses in her official capacity, after having generated well over 50% of the contractor's income over the past two years? How many other Members of Congress have done the same?

Did no one tell him that his actions in 2015 backfired? The result was both a deal with Iran and harm to the traditional bipartisan support for Israel in Congress.
McConnell held a conference call with Senate Republicans this morning in which he pressed Hawley multiple times to explain his plans to object to the Electoral College. McConnell was met with silence, per multiple people familiar with the call. Turns out Hawley wasn’t present
