This conversation was almost 10 years ago. Seems like this lack of nuance in our discourse is how we got to the place where children in Gaza are currently starving to death
Fascinating shift on Israel in the last few days from a very wide range of center-left politicians & voices that had previously defended the country’s conduct
Oh yass, but also who is NOT in this movie?! lol

“Columbia’s decision to settle is understandable, but it’s also evidence of how badly the Trump era has numbed the conscience of the American elite. To protect its funding, Columbia sacrificed its freedom” theatlantic.com/politics/archi…

Notable: Trump UN nominee Mike Waltz was on track to fail by a tie vote in committee, but Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen cast a decisive vote to rescue him. 12-10, he advances to the full Senate.
