People are ready for new leadership in the Democratic Party. Congrats Zohran Kwame Mamdani! You all built an incredible campaign.

Sending thoughts and prayers tonight to Matt Yglesias, Jonathan Chait, Ritchie Torres, Charlie Kirk, Libs of TikTok, and many more.

More horrific footage from the Israeli settler pogrom against the Christian village of Taybeh, Ramallah, in the West Bank, where settlers set houses and vehicles on fire.

Now an investigation by Haaretz confirms what we already knew: senior Israeli commanders in Gaza are instructing soldiers to open live fire directly on starving crowds at aid sites who pose no threat whatsoever. haaretz.com/israel-news/20…

Reminder that when an actual antisemite (Sneako) approached Mamdani and Adams with positive sentiment, Mamdani’s people kicked him out of their event while Adams smoked cigars w him in Gracie Mansion

Israel hawks in the US can win battles - crackdowns on campuses, media taking their side - but are fast losing the war. People under 40 aren't with them. Zohran's election was a true sea change. You can be pro-Palestine and get many, many votes now.

When he ran my campaign Zohran was surrounded by Jews. Me, our deputy campaign manager, my mom, my dad, plenty of vols. People are free to knock Zohran on his policies but he has gotten along very well with Jews his whole life

What I’ve heard Zohran say about Jews: he would increase funding to combat antisemitism and other hate crimes by 800%. What I’ve heard him say about ISRAEL: he believes in equal rights for Israelis & Palestinians. Continuing to conflate Israel and Jews is of course antisemitic.

BREAKING: Swalwell distances himself from Mamdani’s belief that Jewish people deserve to be as safe as everyone else.

This is so important, should be an absolute truism when trying to learn about the last 1000 years of West African history at least, but is still probably hard to convince folk outside of academia is true.

If Japan still occupied Korea and made Koreans second (or worse) class residents then obviously we would all call it an ethnostate you dunce

Little detail is known about the lives of Jews who migrated and settled in the Hausa towns of Kano and Hadejia. It would be fascinating to learn about this particular family and why their life was documented.

Yet another crazy statistic: Israel has murdered more doctors, nurses, and EMS workers than all the victims on October 7th combined.

My grandfather survived Buchenwald and this is an insult to his memory. He opposed the creation of Israel as a Jewish state and was highly critical of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians during his lifetime. He would be appalled by what Israel is doing in Gaza

Je pense que HP n'a pas aimé cette pub gratuite 🤣.

Andrew Jackson on Cherokee Removal: “I am sincerely desirous to promote your welfare…Circumstances that cannot be controlled….render it impossible that you can flourish in the midst of a civilized community. You have but one remedy…to remove to the West”

Bits of Islamic Spain in Manhattan: Central Synagogue in Midtown East (est. 1872) designed by German Jews in the Moorish Revival style. There are few purpose-built mosques in NYC, so to find traces of medieval Islamic architectural forms, you often have to look to synagogues!

In response to Kusasi fighters' attack on Mamprusis travelling on the Bawku - Bolga, Mamprusi fighters last night targeted a Kusasi bus at Nasia along the Nasia - Walewale road.

Another day of Israeli strikes in Gaza. One targets a 68-year-old former Hamas MP and also kills a husband and his wife and their six kids who lived next to him. Another strike kills 19 members of the same family in one building: cbc.ca/news/world/isr…
