Last night I received my first dose of the Moderna vaccine. I got to my car and cried thinking of the 500k who are gone and the empty chairs at tables. As I celebrate what this means for me, my family and those I work with, I grieve those losses with every iota of my being.

@AvivaKlompas That's heartbreaking.

In Be’eri and Kfar Azza, at least 24 bodies of women and girls were found either stripped, tied up or mutilated — sometimes all three. At least 10 bodies of female soldiers from one Gaza observation post were found with signs of sexual violence. nytimes.com/2023/12/28/wor…

Things I didn't realize we needed to say but apparently do: - Swastikas are bad - Hamas is not liberatory Yes, antisemitism and anti zionism are not the same, but it's clear to me that some of y'all just hate Jews.

Supporters of the Palestinian cause who applaud Hamas's actions or blame Israel for the brutality directly contribute to the legitimacy of this terrorism & harm efforts to find a fair solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. More from Ken Jacobson: blogs.timesofisrael.com/the-israeli-pa…

@RavMABAY May your fast be meaningful. G'mar chatima tova!

@girlsreallyrule Oh no! Feel better fast!

Here we go again.

18-year-old Vivek Ramaswamy asking a presidential candidate why he should vote for him when he’s the one with “the least political experience?” The irony. twitter.com/adhitoons/stat…

My mom just called to tell me Happy Birthday. I know this because she yelled..."HAPPY...oh my hell, I have to go, I have to get a rabbit out of Vivi's mouth....HEY, NO...DROP THAT..." Then, click. I guess I wait for the call back to hear "BIRTHDAY!"

The GOP's dangerous distraction ploys: 1) Claim everything is “woke.” 2) Vilify trans people. 3) Complain about Critical Race Theory 4) Decry so-called "welfare queens." 5) Declare government spending is out of control. With no positive policies, they rely on fear mongering.

Watch this. The conservative former Arkansas governor says not only is Trump "morally disqualified" but also "he may be disqualified under the 14th Amendment from being president again as a result of the insurrection."

Lots of these people are selling Trump's rhetoric that China is the biggest threat to the US, when the biggest threat is actually Trump and the current Republican Party.

@girlsreallyrule Yep, most are willing to pardon him.

All of the candidates are begrudging willing to admit that Pence did his duty on Jan. 6th but they are quickly pivoting away from it as fast as they can. I bet. #GOPDebate

Brett Baier just called Trump the "elephant not in the room" and the audience had a mixed reaction. #GOPDebate

🤦‍♀️

Once again, President Biden DID NOT indict Trump. I repeat: President Biden DID NOT indict Trump. Trump was indicted by multiple grand juries of ordinary people who found the evidence against him strong enough to charge him with multiple felonies. #GOPDebate

@girlsreallyrule That was surprising.

Nikki Haley: I am unapologetically pro-life, not because the Republican Party tells me to be, but because my husband was adopted and I had trouble having both of my children." Then she explains what should be allowed and it turns out she is actually pro-choice.

Fact check: 61% of Americans think abortion should be legal in all or most cases. pewresearch.org/short-reads/20…
