  1. A suggested letter to your CA Senators Schiff and Padilla:

    Subject:
    Fight Club, Why Aren’t You a Member?

    Content:
    Why aren’t you a member of the Fight Club? You should be standing with Senators Sanders, Warren, Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Markey, Merkley, and Heinrich. Democrats must throw out the tired old approach and find new ways to win elections, mostly by strongly supporting policies that the majority of the country want, as seen in the November election results.

    Thousands of California Democrats like me are tired of the Old Guard status quo reflected by Schumer. I’ve said this before and I'll say it again relentlessly, Schumer must go.

  2. #Bipartisan Group of Senators Meets With #Netanyahu Despite #ICC Arrest Warrant

    Pictures show Democrats like #ChuckSchumer standing next to Netanyahu, smiling.

    "A bipartisan group of senators representing an eighth of the Senate posed for photos and met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his visit to the U.S. this week, sparking criticism over senators’ smiles next to a man wanted in the Hague for alleged war crimes in #Gaza.

    "Netanyahu met with senators on Wednesday, with leaders for both parties, Senators #JohnThune (R-South Dakota) and Chuck Schumer (D-New York) in attendance. Lawmakers proudly posted photos of the meeting, saying that they discussed the genocide in Gaza and praised Israel and the U.S.’s war on Iran during the meeting.

    "Netanyahu also met with House Speaker #MikeJohnson (R-Louisiana), the latter of whom said in a post on social media that the two 'discussed America’s commitment to Israel’s security and our shared goal of achieving a ceasefire agreement in Gaza.'

    "Pictures of the Senate meeting also showed Senators #CoryBooker (D-New Jersey), #MariaCantwell (D-Washington), Bill Cassidy (R-Louisiana), #ChrisCoons (D-Delaware), Steve Daines (R-Montana), Jon Husted (R-Ohio), #AmyKlobuchar (D-Minnesota), Dave McCormick (R-Pennsylvania), Jim Risch (R-Idaho), #JackyRosen (D-Nevada), and #AdamSchiff (D-California).

    "The lawmakers posed next to a table set with food and drinks. Sen. #TedCruz (R-Texas), who has already drawn criticism for being on vacation in Greece amid the devastating floods in his state last week, was also at the meeting.

    "Lawmakers have drawn criticism for meeting with Netanyahu as his government moves toward expelling all #Palestinians from #Gaza, through death or force. Earlier this week, Netanyahu’s Defense Minister, #IsraelKatz, told reporters that he has instructed the military to plan for confining all Palestinians in Gaza into a camp where they won’t be allowed to leave — a plan likened to #ConcentrationCamps by advocates for #PalestinianRights.

    " 'Yesterday these Senators took part in a photo-op with Netanyahu, who is wanted for war crimes. Shameful,' wrote the Institute for Middle East Understanding Policy Project in a post on social media.

    " '#Genocide is #bipartisan,' said Rep. #RashidaTlaib (D-Michigan).

    " 'In a just world, every one of these Democratic senators would be primaried — especially the hypocritical Cory Booker who is wisely trying to hide his face in this picture,' said Zeteo Editor-in-Chief Mehdi Hasan. Indeed, Booker and Klobuchar are standing behind other senators in photos posted online.

    "The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued a warrant for the arrest of Netanyahu and former Israeli Defense Minister #YoavGallant in November. But both officials have since visited the White House, under both the Trump and Biden administrations, with U.S. officials purposefully defying the Hague.

    "In fact, earlier this week, the U.S. State Department threatened the ICC in a UN meeting ahead of Netanyahu’s visit, demanding that it drop the charges against Netanyahu and Gallant and terminate 'all investigations and all arrest warrants' against Israel.

    "Netanyahu met with President Donald #Trump this week to discuss a proposal for a temporary ceasefire deal in Gaza. However, despite agreement from both parties on the objectives of the genocide, Netanyahu left Washington without the parties announcing a deal. Netanyahu has been accused numerous times of purposely sabotaging ceasefire talks in order to prolong the genocide and stay in power."

  3. Please consider sending the following, or similar, to CA senators Schiff and Padilla and to my congressman Panetta.

    The men and women who serve in the Marine Corps have a storied history of bravery, courage, and dedication to the US constitution.

    Today, they have shamed themselves and let down the United States. The Corps may never recover from this act of cowardice.

    General Eric Smith the Commandant of the Marine Corps must order his troops back to their bases, or he must resign.

    The US military has generally been held in high esteem. Sadly, probably no longer. The military is now the last major institution in our country that has failed us.

    What are you doing to stop this and other Trump illegal actions?

    Are you demanding that General Eric Smith order his troops back to their bases, or resign?
