I’ve got to give some praise to @Marriott. My 20 year old is traveling and would either be on the road till 5am or need to find a hotel tonight. Most American hotels require you be 21 to check in. There are some that allow 20 year olds, but in the area she’s in those were not great options for a single 20 year old female. The Courtyard by Marriott near where she’ll be driving was the only hotel that was willing to make an exception for her.

Unpopular opinion: we shouldn’t dunk on non-Jews who are trying to be nice to Jews.

I've been critical of Trump's Iran war decision, which from the beginning has lacked clear strategic objectives and failed to prepare for and mitigate significant risks. But I reject Joe Kent's characterization of how this war came about. Israel has its interests, and like any nation, will pursue them. But the President of the United States has agency, made his own judgments about US interests, and fully owns the decision to go to war. If you disagree with it, he bears responsibility. Kent's characterization -- consistent with his known extremist views -- echoes longstanding antisemitic tropes about shadowy cabals exerting undue influence. No. Israel is a country that pursues its interests. We don't have to agree with them. American citizens of any background have a right to advocate for the policies they support. Everyone can disagree with them too. But Presidents make decisions about using military force. Despite my utter contempt for the cruel and dangerous Iranian regime, and support for the Iranian people's quest for freedom, I believe Trump erred to conduct this war, this way. More importantly on day 17, I am calling for him to declare victory based on the significant damage to Iran's power projection capabilities, and take an off-ramp before a lengthy conflict does serious harm to our broader strategic interests. It is possible to do several things at once: oppose this war; hold the President responsible; recognize the evil of the Iranian regime; call for an end to the war now that significant damage has been done to Iran's ability to threaten its neighbors, and before broader damage to global U.S. interests is incurred; acknowledge that the U.S. and Israel are partners with many overlapping but also some divergent interests; and, avoid antisemitic tropes in making a case against the war. Democrats who oppose this war don't need Joe Kent or his extremist views to make their case. They should not embrace him.

@cc37876 @HeathMayo @DanielBShapiro I’m sorry I’m too busy controlling the media and the banks to address this

@HeathMayo @tribecamom @DanielBShapiro i'm sorry, but Israel's laughably over-proportional influence over American politics has to be addressed. especially in the wake of this war. Bibi had his hand up Trump's ass from Day 1.

Before holding this guy up as some paragon of principle, recall this is the same man who flunked his congressional bid for his outspoken anti-Semitism, his ties to Nick Fuentes, and his insistence that the 2020 election was rigged. The strategic planning for this war and its consequences have been badly botched, but holding Kent up as the avatar of that argument is a recipe for disaster. He’ll be using these plaudits to trade conspiracies across from Tucker and Candace within the month…

@joekent16jan19 @KattyKay_ Just a little teeny tiny anti-semetic?

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

Hey @AlaskaAir you dropped the ball and couldn’t get us to Tokyo on the flights we booked months ago. We scrambled to find an airline who could, last minute, at a cost of 10K one way. Now we’re in Tokyo and find out you cancelled our return flight because we missed the flight out here (because you held us on the tarmac for 4 hours and we watched our flight depart without us). Now the hold times to reach a customer service agent are consistently 8+ hours. How does someone reach a human at your company?

@toddrichman @GillianLazarus It makes complete sense that is your sister 💅🏻

My sister — YES, that incredible woman being harassed — is one of the best people I know. She has dedicated her life to making NYC better for EVERYONE. Charitable. Peaceful. Always the first to show up and lend a hand. The kind of New Yorker we’re proud to stand with — and the kind we NEED. And yes, a proud Jew as well!!!! And then there’s this antisemitic guy, hiding behind a social media platform, using it to constantly tear down the greatest city in the world while targeting someone who actually serves it. Scroll his feed, it’s all negativity and attacks on the place millions of us love. NYC deserves builders, not antiSemitic bullies. We stand with her. Am Yisrael Chai. #EndJewHatred

What an absolute dick this man is.

@gtconway3d Is it almost over?

A lot of this is delusional projection.

@NBCOlympics Was a legend last week. Icing on the GOAT

THE LEGEND YOU ARE, MIKAELA. Mikaela Shiffrin is GOLDEN. #WinterOlympics

Yes, a Jewish charity runs one of the biggest free Halal food distributions for Ramadan. If that bothers you, I honestly don’t care. In a crazy world, we look out for each other. Proud of my @MetCouncil team.

You got to give lots of credit to Eileen Gu for responding brilliantly back to the reporter with great confidence. She looked him in the eye said that was a "ridiculous perspective" without any hesitation or fear. 😁

✨History made✨ Today Karin Harjo became the first female coach to set a course at an Olympic alpine event. 👏 “We’re in 2026 and it’s the first time, and the reason is because of @MikaelaShiffrin . She set out to lift up women in sport - competitors, coaches, everyone behind the scenes. Through her greatness, she’s creating opportunities for women to rise and paving the path for those coming next.”

Pro Trump Supporter Bari Weiss is in charge of CBS News. This CBS story was not aired on TV. Here is the segment.

Would love to not have to retweet this any more times.

When Zohran Mamdani dares to say that “when the boot of the NYPD is on your neck, it’s been laced by the IDF,” there is no room for debate, no refuge in the tired alibi of “anti-Zionism.” It is unvarnished, unashamed antisemitism. May the voters of New York remember it tomorrow.

NVIDIA is hands down my favorite tech company. This beautiful message was just a cherry on top.

Thank you. Am Yisrael Chai! 🇮🇱🎗️

Why is no one disturbed by the fact that the Red Cross had enough contact with Hamas to drive the hostages out of Gaza, but not enough to bring them food and medicine? Either they have access to Hamas, or they don’t. Which one is it?
