40 years ago, I had lunch with former FM @AbbaEban in Tel Aviv. He told me Israel could be two of the following--a Jewish state, a democracy, include Judea and Samaria--but not all three. Benjamin Netanyahu - בנימין נתניהו & Co. have made their choice: nytimes.com/2024/05/16/mag…

#IntelBrief: Part of successful repatriation from detention camps will involve medium and long-term investments in reintegration and rehabilitation, including trauma counseling, professional development, and deradicalization. thesoufancenter.org/intelbrief-202…

I wasn’t going to tweet anything political this weekend, but i have to make an exception for this. Your family has sacrificed nothing, your name will become synonymous with “Benedict Arnold” and how dare you tweet this, THIS weekend. You don’t know the first thing about service

Adam Kinzinger (Slava Ukraini) 🇺🇸🇺🇦 I post this every Memorial Day. My father, Albromo A. Brunetti, son of Italian Immigrants, in WW2. In this picture, he was assigned to drive the Comedian, Bob Hope, (another Immigrant) who was entertaining troops in the European Theater. TOP THAT, DRAFT DODGER BONE SPURS.

Remembering my friend @BenazirBhutto on what should have been her 71st birthday. She was born on the longest and lightest day of the year and was the light to her family, friends, country, and to millions around the world inspired by her determination and courage.

Still 2700 Yazidi people are missing since ISIS’ genocide. It is a major international scandal that member states of the Global Coalition against ISIS and members of NATO shirk their responsibility to mitigate the security threat posed by ISIS. icct.nl/publication/lo…

Ten years ago today, ISIS attacked Sinjar killing the Yazidi men and enslaving younger women and girls. President Obama declared it to be a genocide three days later and initiated a military response. The fastest response to genocide ever. Thank you Barack Obama

Fifty years ago this hour, Richard Nixon ceased to be US President when SecState Kissinger received his letter of resignation. His legacy was killing Americans, Vietnamese and Cambodians in a war he knew was lost. Good riddance fifty years ago. I feel the same now. RichardNixonLibrary

Possibly the best political ad ever youtube.com/watch?v=wiyGSc…

🚨 BREAKING: Wow. This heart-rending ad, when tested, moves swing-state men 2.5 points away from Trump. Massive. Please share everywhere. Women are dying NOW in states with extreme bans. If Republicans win, a national abortion ban is next. Don't look away. #MAGAAbortionBan

First state called in Election 2024. When I first voted, @Vermont was the most reliably Republican state in the country

Panel struggles to explain why Palestinians are entitled to their own state and the people of Iraqi Kurdistan who voted 92% for independence are not at #MEPS24

We flatter ourselves by saying we are country of laws and not men. In reality our institutions and democracy may not survive a lawless president, a congress whose GOP majority would overturn an election their party loses, and a partisan Republican Supreme Court.

Watching Trump take the oath of office in the Capitol Rotunda, I can't help but recall how just four years ago he urged on a mob that vandalized that space in an effort to an overrun an election and destroy our democracy. Revolting.

Our Senator calls it as it is

#Norway is losing its most recent contribution to the English language as "trump" replaces "quisling" as the word for traitor.

Remembering the lives lost 29 years ago today in the #RonBrown plane crash near Dubrovnik. They perished in a mission of peace. The saddest day of my tenure as Trey Lyons.

Cheered by election of PopeLeoXIV --the second American Pope.

My friend #BenazirBhutto was born on the longest day of the year bringing her light to Pakistan and to her many friends. She would have been 72 today and I miss her. Asif Ali Zardari Bilawal Bhutto Zardari Bakhtawar B-Zardari
