Who is this journalist? Some great questioning here by him, especially the question on the missing Bond-villain Hamas lair under Al Shifa that Israel claimed was there, & produced 3D renderings of, but have never actually showed us in real life.
Bravo, for this interviewer 👏🏽👇🏽

“We later found out that Hamas had offered on October 9 or 10 to release all the civilian hostages in exchange for the IDF not entering the Strip, but the government rejected the offer.”

We helped kill a five-day-old child. And yet our media and political elites just don’t care.
Imagine being ok with this? Imagine being indifferent to this? Imagine being in *support* of this?
AP -- Israeli airstrikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah have killed at least 22 people, including six women and five children (one aged 5 days old)

In the manufactured fervor over antisemitism on campuses (ie students yelling ‘from the river to the sea’ or ‘free Palestine’) we have allowed the fomenting of a fire of Islamophobia & anti-Arab bigotry that accepts & spreads Arabs/Muslims as inherently violent & threatening. All in defense of a genocide.
We have seen a Palestinian child stabbed to death, three Palestinian students shot; we have seen professors lose their jobs for advocating against genocide; administrations forgoi no investigating chemical attacks on pro-Palestinian students, law professors assaulting a protesting hijab-clad student and now hijab-clad students losing one of the highest honors bestowed on a graduating student.

I enjoyed today's discussion...
Potential jurors for former President Trump's hush money trial are being asked if they can be fair and impartial. @ProfRonSullivan and @eliehonig tell me on @InsidePolitics it may be "difficult" to find impartial jurors, but "difficult does not mean impossible."

A year ago, "critical race theory" was a niche academic term. But on Monday, @GovBillLee signed a law banning the teaching it. @danvock has an in-depth piece on how the GOP took it up as a cause. tennesseelookout.com/2021/05…

One thing I’ll say: for the last two years, I and progressive candidates have been unseating powerful Dem incumbents supported by DCCC.
Not *once* has anyone in the party asked me what weaknesses I’ve found in their operation.
If they stop blaming progressives, we can help.
