Yes let’s rename all these Cesar Chavez schools after men … that’s the way

For all those Ceasar Chavez schools looking for new names: Abraham Lincoln U.S. Grant Theodore Roosevelt George S Patton Ronald W Reagan Frederick Douglas John C Fremont

It’s genuinely astonishing that Hegseth’s argument for war in Iran is basically the same argument used to justify the Iraq War
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
Hegseth: "My 13 year old son popped into my office last night while I was editing these remarks. He asked about the war and the families I met at Dover. I looked at him and said, 'They died for you, son. So your generation doesn't have to deal with a nuclear Iran.'"
English
I've seen you make this argument a few times, but isn't the more useful number Trump's support, not among self-identified MAGA, but rather voters who identify as Republicans?
Trump is polling in the low 80s with self-identified GOP voters. It seems like if you're an incumbent president losing one in 5 members of your political party, it could be a problem.

“[Hasan] Piker is anti-American, antiwomen, anti-Western and antisemitic.” @ThirdWayTweet’s Jon Cowan and Lily Cohen write in @WSJopinion. “No Democrat should engage with him. All should seek to push him to the fringe, where he belongs.”

The thing about this absurd notion that Israel shouldn't exist is that it does so much damage to Palestinians. Hamas's refusal to accept a Jewish state -- and the 30 years it has spent actively blocking normalization -- has been a disaster for Palestinians.
It's left them in a state of political dislocation, allowed the Israeli right/settlers to strengthen their hold over the West Bank, all the while boosting rejectionist forces in Israel and hardening ordinary Israelis against territorial compromise.
Arash Azizi آرش عزیزی@arash_tehran
Why do people insist on “Israel’s right to exist”? Because this is the politics they oppose. Note that he also wants to dismantle a city that predates Israel by decades. It’s not about political change but massive demographic change

i got a lot of hate when i said it’s obvious a lot of people only care about the gaza genocide insofar as it permits them to get away with targeting entire demographic groups (eg every single jewish person) as being deserving of classic fascistic hate. but i was also 100% correct
attractive wastrel@UrbaneUrban
seeing “goyim” replace “normie” in online parlance is still insane to me. fash occupied culture.

Ok. What about the rest of the op-ed? You still fine palling around with a guy who believes America deserved 9/11, cried tears of joy when he was gifted Mao’s Little Red Book (author is a fairly famous mass murderer), and said “it doesn’t matter if rapes happened on October 7?”
Jon Favreau@jonfavs
In this op-ed, @ThirdWayTweet actually argues that "Epstein class" is an "age-old trope" pushed by "Jew-haters on the left."

@speechboy71 Also, shit like this absolutely is anti-Semitic, and these guys clearly get off on the transgressive nature of tiptoeing up to the line at this point rather than actually policing hate out of the party

David Crockett@davidcrockett08
It absolutely is alluding to an age old trope when you have someone like Matt Duss saying “War with Iran is being entirely driven by the Epstein class.” The war has nothing to do with global finance or the international rich. Plenty to do with the Jewish state. Be serious.
English
Of course, it's not weird at all. None of the Pod Save America bros want to seriously defend platforming an anti-Semite like Hasan Piker or wrestling with the things he has said ... so instead they try to distract and minimize anti-Semitic fears.
English
It's super weird that you focus on those two words and ignore the thrust of this op-ed, which is critical of Democrats who platform Hasan Piker ... (i.e., the podcast you host).

Trump can post whatever he likes. But there is zero, I mean zero, chance the IDF would conduct a strike in that location without giving CENTCOM full visibility.
Trump knew (and approved). Now he realizes it caused a major escalation with Iran's (entirely unjustified) attacks on Gulf energy targets.

Stepping back from the particulars of this exchange, can anyone ever recall a time a cabinet nominee has said to the face of the chair of the confirmation committee that he has complete and total contempt for the chair’s character? Even more so that the nominee is a sitting senator of the same party as the committee chair?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
RAND PAUL: You offered no apology. And you offer no apology today, and no regrets MARKWAYNE MULLIN: I'm not apologizing for pointing out your character PAUL: You want people to know you supported a felonious, violent attack on me from behind MULLIN: I did not say I supported it. I said I understood it.

Going to need to rename all of the Cesar Chavez highways, schools, parks, and government buildings after Dolores Huerta.

It's nice that Bennett says this, but he is still an ardent opponent of a Palestinian state, and if he's elected prime minister, he'll maintain and likely expand the settlement enterprise in the West Bank. His words ring just a bit hollow.
Naftali Bennett נפתלי בנט@naftalibennett
Former Prime Minister and Defense Minister Naftali Bennett on Jewish violence in Judea and Samaria: “We did not establish a Jewish state so that violent gangs would operate within it. I strongly condemn any display of nationalist violence by extremist Jews in Judea and Samaria. More than half a million Israelis live in Judea and Samaria, good, decent people, the backbone of the country. The vast majority reject violence and crime. Precisely as someone who believes in our right to the land and in the communities there, we must denounce the rioters and eradicate all violence from within our own ranks. This is yet another failure of governance by the government. Let the IDF and the police do their job. Soon, we will return to lead Israel.”

I'm genuinely curious to see how this plays with Maine voters. To me, it has a strong odor of desperation, but maybe people will buy the contrition.

Platner up w a response ad to Mills attack in #MESen. “Maine, I’m asking you not to judge me for the worst thing I said on the internet on my worst day 14 years.” He’s putting more points on air this week; Mills buy is $87k in Portland market, Pratner at $350k in Portland.

The Mills team is clearly willing to aggressively go after Platner.
