If Bernie's 5% annual wealth tax on billionaires had been enacted in 2012, Elon Musk would be worth less than $365 billion instead of the $1.2 trillion that he's worth today.
Elon would still be the wealthiest man alive & every family in America would have universal childcare.

@steady_drumbeat What color is the sky in the world that you live on. Perhaps we should also have the same for Iraq, Yemen, Egypt and other places where Jews were chased out with no UN agency to help them.

This is totally divorced from the reality of the Israel/Palestine conflict. Right of Return is, at this point, basically a symbolic demand that Israel recognize the illegitimacy of the Nakba. The formulation Palestinians proposed in 2008 was, Israel agrees that refugees have a theoretical right to return, but the exercise of that right in practice can be curtailed to token numbers, with Israel controlling the flow, so that Israel can maintain Jewish demographic supremacy indefinitely. Basically, the Israelis are being asked to give up a little bit of pride in exchange for peace. As such, it's one of the few Palestinian demands which you genuinely cannot claim harms Israeli security.
So, contra what Derek is saying, Right of Return is among the best terms to compromise on. It means very little to Israelis (they keep their land, their security, their Jewish majority) and it means a lot to Palestinians. It's a great place for negotiators to bend.

The “right of return” is genuinely a catastrophically bad precedent to set that would lead to more conflict all across the globe. We should, if anything, be pressuring Israel to not even make token concessions to anything framed this way.

I'm glad Zohran is considering supporting @DarializaforNY. She's always been there for my family, while Espaillat did nothing for us when I lived in his district. He's too cozy with AIPAC and Columbia.

Zohran is proving why Abundance alone never works. You build more AND protect tenants from displacement. You remove legitimately onerous regulations on zoning and add new regulations to protect workers. The messaging is about affordability, not unleashing the private sector.

Dan Goldman's fearmongering and weaponization of antisemitism couldn't kill the boycott. His constituents passed it 67-31. Funny that establishment Democrats can't read the room in their own district.
And yes, BDS is the floor when Israel is a genocidal apartheid state.

My wife Toby and I are in @Israel becoming citizens. At the Interior Ministry, the official reviewing our papers - a Jew who came from Ethiopia in 1991 - asked me for proof that I was Jewish.
I showed him letters from our rabbi. As I did so, tears began to flow.
I told him: “I remember the 1970s and ’80s, when we marched and protested so Ethiopian Jews could come home to Israel. Back then, many questioned whether Ethiopian Jews were Jewish at all. We insisted our Black brothers and sisters were as Jewish as any of us.”
And now, 35 years later, here was a holy Ethiopian Jew confirming my Judaism.
We had come full circle.
Holding his hand, I sang: “Zeh hayom asah Hashem, nagilah ve’nismechah bo” - This is the day God has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it.
Jews from East and West have returned home together.

Not sure if this is meant to be aome kind of insult, but I do love "swanning" with @NYCMayor @ZohranKMamdani. Especially with my fellow JVP and JFREJers!

Effective tax rate paid by Jeff Bezos from 2014 to 2018: 0.98%
Effective 2025 federal tax rate paid by Amazon: 1.4%
Typical tax rate paid by the average American: 14.5%

@mehdirhasan I hear Pakistan is nice this time of year. Go back … how you became a citizen of these United States is bewildering. And why you did is even more so as you clearly hate its people and their values.

Good. (And it’s antisemitic, btw, to conflate Jewish New Yorkers with Israel.)

@BackmanMen17772 @RabbiAviWeiss @Israel Wrong ...

As @IsraeliPM Netanyahu and FM @gidonsaar have made clear, Itamar Ben Gvir’s reckless grandstanding is not representative of government policy. I am Israel’s top diplomat in the U.S., at the heart of our most important alliance. Ben Gvir’s antics take a sledgehammer to our diplomatic efforts while Israel’s enemies gleefully jump on every unfortunate nonsense to discredit and demonize. The provocateurs of the Flotilla charade were properly detained in accordance with international law and will be deported to their home countries. End of story.
