Green Party for me.
Both of these fascist corporate stooges can die of old age and dementia before the election for all I care. In fact America and the world would be better off for it. #GenocideJoe#TrumpForPrison
@nus@israel@palestine Hold your nose, America, hold your nose. But start organizing at the local level, and maybe separate a state or two. - Sincerely, your neighbour to the north, Canada
“I believe that Trump can be placed among a long line of demagogues who possess the skills needed to tap into the fears and anxieties of a group of people that perceives itself as marginalized, at risk and not in control.”
@TheConversationUS@blackmastodon ..." a group of people that perceives itself as marginalized, at risk and not in control.” That group of people got him elected the first time, and included Blacks. This Trump is a politician and will lose much of his prior support base. Only Republicans now. There is also no real choice of opposition. Biden never should have been elected. The US is overwhelmed with political savvy. Nobody really cares.
Unsurprisingly, #Ackman and other Jewish mega-donors seem to have no qualms with antisemites, as long as they are the good old-fashioned ones like #Trump and #DeSantis, who despise Muslims nearly as much as they detest Jews. With that, they can live.
Trump's actions, such as accentuating Jon Stewart's Jewish last name "Leibowitz" (2013), making comments seemingly trafficking in Jewish stereotypes when addressing the Republican Jewish Coalition in 2015, his initial refusal to disavow support from former KKK leader David Duke during the 2016 campaign, his campaign's delayed condemnation of the extreme antisemitic harassment directed at Jewish journalists like Julia Ioffe after they wrote critical profiles of Trump/his wife, the use of his "America First" slogan echoing the antisemitic isolationist group from the WWII era, and listing a white supremacist leader as a delegate before removing him after media scrutiny – none of that seems to be a problem. Apparently, what makes one an antisemite in their eyes is wanting an end to 76 years of Israeli occupation and a brutal apartheid.
#US / Miriam Adelson’s money could transform Trump’s 2024 campaign, and the Palestine, again, will pay the price
[…] Now, in 2024, the two have unfinished Israel business from Trump’s presidency. Along with annexing the West Bank, the first Trump administration proposed recognizing Israeli settlers’ right to remain in homes on occupied lands. Also for Israel to remain an occupying force in any future Palestinian state.
Adelson wants to use her wealth to ensure unconditional U.S. support for Israel and its policies, including the annexation of the West Bank.
Her husband gave USD 20 millions to Trump to move the US embassy to #Jerusalem. She’ll pay much more to be able to shape Trump’s 2024 Israel agenda, including pushing for U.S. recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the West Bank.
Reportedly, she’s pursuing other unfinished goals from Trump's previous term, such as allowing Israeli settlers to remain in Palestinian territories, and letting Israel maintain an occupying military force in a future Palestinian state.
[…] Ten days before Donald J. Trump took office, Sheldon G. Adelson went to Trump Tower for a private meeting. Afterward, Mr. Adelson, the casino billionaire and Republican donor, called an old friend, Morton A. Klein, to report that Mr. Trump told him that moving the American Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem would be a major priority […] The Adelsons were persuaded and donated $20 million to a political action committee that supported Mr. Trump’s campaign, and another $1.5 million to the committee that organized the Republican convention.
For Trump, an Embassy in Jerusalem Is a Political Decision, Not a Diplomatic One https://archive.is/wZIV8
The thing about the "Israel wants Trump" argumemt is that I think what #Israel wants even more than #Trump is to not have a #US#POTUS be seen to lose reelection for supporting Israel.
And I don't say that as some kind of checkmate, just a consideration I haven't seen brought up before.
Garbage #Poll. What exactly does "nationally representative sample" mean?
'The American Jewish Committee, using '..a nationally representative sample of 1,001 Jews aged 18 or older. Online interviews were conducted..."'
Trump wants to nuke Gaza. Biden feeds Gazans and wants Hamas to end the war it started by accepting the ceasefire deal that Israel has already agreed to.
Attacking Biden with lies only increases the odds of Trump regaining power and replacing democracy with fascism.
You don't care because you're not pro-Palestinian, just pro-Hamas, like that idiot in the photo.
Keeping up with and commenting on #Trump news 24/7 doesn't make you an informed citizen, much less an activist. It makes you a partisan hack who refuses to acknowledge the humanity of people who are already being killed by American #fascism. Turn off the Rachel Maddow and start reading some al jazeera. #racism
