Who could have possibly predicted that banking on a bigoted corrupt psychopath would be so risky?

@RepAOC What is it that you think Passover celebrates?? 😂

Chag Pesach Sameach! We hope this Passover brings an abundance of prosperity and happiness to all who are celebrating in NY-14 and around the world. Have a wonderful Seder, and may your meal be plentiful and your questions be answered.

That’s not how the Leahy Laws work and you know it. Tell us - are you also against the tens of billions US taxpayers spend annually to provide military protection to Japan, Germany, South Korea, Ukraine, Qatar, Egypt, Poland …. No? If you only have a problem with Israel just say that, and drop the faux legalese.

The Israeli government is well able to fund the Iron Dome system, which has proven critical to keep innocent civilians safe from rocket attacks and bombardment. Consistent with my voting record to date, I will not support Congress sending more taxpayer dollars and military aid to a government that consistently ignores international law and U.S. law. Netanyahu’s allies in the Knesset just approved a $45 billion defense budget, and the Prime Minister himself also asserted his interest in withdrawing from the MOU with the United States in January. It is fully within their ability to fund Iron Dome and other defensive systems. Our allies who need our military aid must understand that we will provide it consistent with the Leahy amendment and the foreign assistance act.

Happy Passover to the Jewish communities in Ukraine and around the world. I wish the light of these days to bring peace, safety, and goodness to every family. Especially to all those who celebrate this holiday during times of war. It is time to restore security. It is time for all leaders to act together to create greater opportunities for a normal life. It is time for everyone with goodwill in their hearts to unite so that everyone has reliable protection and a good life. Chag Pesach Sameach!

What he meant was Chag Pesach Sameach!

I’m confused. Defensive military aid stops rockets aimed at innocent children and families. So, why oppose it? We provide defensive military aid to Ukraine, Taiwan, Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Kenya, etc. @AOC Should we cut all of them off? Or is that your policy just for the Jews?

Just a reminder to everyone at No Kings today: If a Jew-hating terrorist sympathizer shows up to your protest and no one asks them to leave, you’re at a Jew-hating pro-terrorist rally. I hope this helps. There is no gray area here.

"I love the United States of America....I cannot stand our current commander in chief. That's what I feel about Israel." @GavinNewsom talks Israel vs. Netanyahu with @JohnAvlon on How To Fix It:

BREAKING The Lebanese government has declared Mohammad Reza Shibani, the ambassador-designate of the Islamic Republic of Iran, to be persona non grata and is giving him until Sunday to leave Lebanon. This makes four Arab nations that have expelled Islamic Republic of Iran diplomats in the last week. Lebanon joins Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar.

I am a Democrat. I served in the Clinton administration. I did not vote for Donald Trump and am highly unlikely to support him or his acolytes in the future. I also have serious disagreements with many of the Trump administration’s domestic and foreign policies. But it is profoundly disturbing that a growing segment of the far left appears to be almost rooting for Hamas, Hezbollah, the Iranian regime, and other forces fundamentally opposed to the United States and our allies. This seems to reflects a corrosive strain of anti-Americanism, dressed up in postcolonial theory, that risks blinding us to the moral realities of our world and the nature of our adversaries.

Joe Kent resigning and immediately pivoting to blaming Israel for everything is as predictable as it is unserious. Scapegoating Israel isn’t just a tired antisemitic trope – it’s anti-American. This is a guy with ties to white supremacists and has “PANZER” tattooed on his arm, referring to a Nazi tank infamously used in crimes against Jews. Kent's reduction of Iran to “Israel’s fault” isn’t leadership, it’s bigoted deflection.

Dear fellow Jtwitter my opponent is using the “she's bankrolled by AIPAC” trope so since he means Jews if you haven't already donated to my state senate race please send your $ to help me defeat an antisemite who thinks it's cute to say I'm Israel first and accuses me of being bought out by @AIPAC when the POS knows they don't donate to state & local candiates. Share with your friends and family. I need your help, no amount is too small. Shabbat shalom and thanks in advance! ✡️💙🇮🇱 almaforarizona.org/donate

In the past 24 hours we've seen violent, antisemitic attacks in San Jose and now Michigan. Jews were beaten for speaking Hebrew. A truck filled with explosives was rammed into a synagogue with children inside. I am praying for the victims and their families. This is happening in our country right now. Every single one of us should publicly condemn this hatred. Silence cannot be an option.

Wait, these socialist antisemites are the “moral” leaders our country needs? A dude with a nazi tattoo and a mayor who’s refused to condemn globalizing the intifada? You’re not against antisemitism if you use antisemites to promote your brand.

Dismissing Jewish organizations as a “Zionist lobby” and pledging to boycott engagement with them is offensive and dangerous.  With antisemitism on the rise, we must protect the Jewish community. Hate and divisive rhetoric have no place in our country. jewishinsider.com/2026/02/janees…

Help me understand those calling Republicans “Nazis” while endorsing a Democrat who had the Nazi Totenkopf tattooed on his chest?

I have two sets of thoughts: one regarding the Islamic Republic of Iran, the other regarding war powers. First: The Islamic Republic of Iran has long been the gravest threat to peace and stability in the Middle East. It is a murderous oppressor of its own people, the world’s leading state sponsor of terror, a rogue regime armed with dangerous ballistic missiles, and, until recently, a threshold nuclear state. If the Islamic Republic were to fall after four decades of repression and terror, not one American should shed a tear for its demise. Our sympathies belong not with the oppressor but with the oppressed—the 90 million Iranians who seek the very freedom and dignity that we in the West so often take for granted. My solidarity is with the Iranian people yearning to be free.

Under the Constitution, the separation of powers is clear: Congress has the power to declare war. The President, as Commander in Chief, has the power to command the military in a war that Congress has authorized. With respect to the war in Iran, authorization has neither been sought by the President nor granted by Congress. The President cannot constitutionally wage war without congressional authorization unless the nation has been attacked, is under attack, or faces an imminent attack. None of those conditions is present here. For too long, we have operated under a theory of presidential war powers so open-ended that it lacks anything resembling a limiting principle. The issue before us is not Democrat versus Republican, nor progressive versus conservative. It is Congress versus the President. It is Article I versus Article II. The Founders did not declare independence 250 years ago to replace one king with another. Nor did the Framers intend for the Commander in Chief to wield the unilateral war-making authority of an 18th-century English monarch. The notion that a President can plunge the United States into a regional war in one of the most volatile places on earth—without even briefing Congress, much less securing its authorization—is irreconcilable with the text, structure, and history of the Constitution. Instead of playing second fiddle to an imperial presidency, Congress must reclaim its rightful place as the first branch of government—exactly as the Founders intended. We are Article I for a reason. It is time we start acting like it.

Weeks before Graham Platner promoted an antisemitic conspiracy theorist in a now-deleted social media post, the Maine Senate candidate appeared on a popular YouTube show whose host has spread specious claims about Jews and Israel. @matthewkassel reports: ji.news/4taiw

Queen Esther stood up for the Jewish people not because she was unafraid, but because she chose courage over complicity. Purim isn’t just a reminder to our enemies of the Jewish people’s strength. It’s a reminder to ourselves that hiding won’t conquer hate.
