Today, I became the first Jewish-American political appointee to resign from the Biden-Harris administration over its policies in Gaza. Here is my resignation letter:

Baby formula, rice, and flour — an initiative by Egyptian youth who put some food in bottles and threw them into the sea, hoping it would reach #Gaza. #GazaStarving

He can’t express concern about mass starvation without repeating the lie that “Hamas could end the war now if it wanted to,” which really calls into question his concern about the mass starvation.

No one who defended Israel’s conduct the last two years, or did not use all of the power they had to try and stop this, should ever hold elected or higher office in the United States ever again.

All I can say is that if you're one of the AIPAC-backed cowards who's refused to take action against this genocide, and now you're trying to do reputational damage control by speaking up in these very last moments, well then you better be fucking efficacious about it.

Meet the New Centrist Democrat Copying Zohran Mamdani This is incredible @heycappello

The clerks at the store where I get my lunch said a man came in last week and asked them where the public entrance to 26 Federal Plaza was. He locked his bike outside, and it’s been there since.

Don’t normalize this. Don’t accept this. Don’t let it become routine. Don’t let it fade from headlines. Don’t let it pass without consequence. Don’t let it happen again tomorrow. Don’t grow numb to it. Don’t stand with those who justify it. Don’t stop demanding its end.

The @LemkinInstitute is calling on every leader in the world to step in immediately with measures that ensure food and water gets into Gaza right now. No more discussions, meetings, reports, sessions, summits. GET FOOD AND WATER INTO GAZA NOW. IF YOU HAVE THE POWER, YOU…

Obama has a fascinating barometer for what he will and will not weigh in on. To wit,

I think the Democratic Party really thought that Abundance was going to be the intellectual victory that the center-right Third Way running the party has been thirsting for for years, and instead it has fallen fairly flat and they are really mad.

The fact that this isn’t the biggest story in American politics denotes how far gone we are.

these are deeply unserious people who have zero interest in governance and are motivated only by the prospect of functioning as power brokers

Hmmm, antisemitism alert!! Is the NYT going to write about this? Is @SenGillibrand going to go on a tirade about this? Where’s the @ADL? 👀

We gotta organize man, it’s really our only choice and option. You can’t be waiting or wanting the Democratic Party to save you because they won’t.

Imagine thinking this is remotely important right now. Dude thinks this is all just a game.

Hakeem, your top donors are AIPAC, Blackrock, Apollo, and Lockheed Martin. Your PAC is called Jobs Education and Families First — jobs for who?? Bombmakers and hedge fund managers? You don’t care about affordability, you’re just scared because the people won last night

Pretty wild that everyone is asking @ZohranKMamdani his position on Israel/Gaza but literally nobody is asking Cuomo about joining Netanyahu’s war crimes charges defense team

THIS SHOULD BE THE FRONT PAGE HEADLINE OF EVERY NEWSPAPER.

Shame on everyone who voted to give the most corrupt & unhinged president in history $1 trillion to wage endless war, but arrogantly lectures us that we can’t afford Medicare for All that would save 68,000 lives & $650 billion every year per the Republican CBO Director & Yale.
