[cue old Der Stürmer joke for poignancy here]
Why we put this nonsense out into the ether ourselves is beyond me.
"There’s a different question being asked, largely in #Democratic circles, of today’s #Jewish #presidential# candidates: “Is he the ‘right’ kind of Jewish #candidate to be #president?” — a question that is almost entirely centered around a candidate’s position on #Israel and how openly he identifies with his #religious #faith.
A long list of Jewish candidates are considering a presidential campaign or are being touted as credible contenders, ranging from moderates like #Pennsylvania #Gov. #JoshShapiro, #Sen. #ElissaSlotkin (D- #MI) and former #Chicago #Mayor #RahmEmanuel to #progressives like #Illinois Gov. #JBPritzker and those who straddle the ideological divide, like Sen. #JonOssoff (D- #GA)."

Controversial: we should stop running for office in host countries.
Uncontroversial: Jewish president is a fantasy.
"#MichaelMorris is the publisher of the #Atlanta #JewishTimes, and the scathing letter he just wrote #Georgia #Sen. #JonOssoff signals yet another important shift among prominent #Jewish communal figures since #October7.
First, the background to this incident. In the 2024 campaign, the question was whether #Pennsylvania #Gov. #JoshShapiro’s #Jewishness would hold him back from being embraced as a national figure in the #Democratic Party. The answer was yes: A progressive campaign to cast him as a #dualloyalist was so successful that when he was being vetted as a possible vice-presidential nominee for #KamalaHarris, her team asked him whether he worked on #Israel’s behalf.
Many of us, myself included, wondered if #Shapiro would run for president in 2028 and thus test the party’s voters on this question. But it looks as if #Ossoff may be the one..."

#Salzwedel - In der Mönchskirche steht ein riesiges #Nashorn des Künstlers Itamar #Gov. Ringsum das Tier erklingen bedrohliche Töne und Gesang.
@jele & @mixel hatten uns auf die Ausstellung aufmerksam gemacht. Das Nashorn steht für die zunehmende Rhinozerosierung der Gesellschaft. Wie Jele recherchierte, stammt der Ausdruck aus dem Hebräischen und meint das Abrutschen in den Autoritarismus.
Anschließend waren wir lecker Baumkuchen essen.
Vielen Dank für die Einladung und den schönen Nachmittag! -
