  2. Josephine Sarah "Sadie" Earp (née Marcus; 1861 – 1944)

    She was the wife of Wyatt Earp the famed Old West lawman. She met Wyatt in 1881 in the frontier town of Tombstone, Arizona, when she was living with Johnny Behan, sheriff of Cochise County, Arizona. She left Behan, who was nearly twice her age, in 1881, before the gunfight at the O.K. Corral. She returned to San Francisco in March 1882 and was joined that fall by Wyatt, with whom she remained for 46 years until his death in 1929. Josephine Earp had his body cremated and buried him in the Marcus family plot in a Jewish cemetery

    Josephine Marcus was born in New York to a Jewish family. They moved to San Francisco, where she attended dance school as a girl. She ran away as a young teen traveling to Arizona looking for adventure. Sadie kept this period of her life a secret but there js evidence that she may have been forced to work as a prostitute under the name Sadie Mansfield. She described this period as 'A bad dream'.

    The book I Married Wyatt Earp (1967), is based on a manuscript allegedly written in part by her.

  6. " #Trump consistently speaks in ways that suggest #American Jews have dual loyalty to the #UnitedStates and #Israel... He called Benjamin #Netanyahu “your prime minister” at a 2019 #Republican Jewish Coalition event. In a 2020 Rosh Hashanah call with #American Jewish leaders, Trump said, “We really appreciate you; we love your country also.”

    Your, your, your. Wrong, wrong, wrong. We are #JewishAmericans, not Israelis, & it is beyond insulting to imply otherwise."

  7. Palmer Report:
    "Unhinged Donald Trump complains he hasn’t 'been treated very well' by Jewish people.
    (...)
    For as much time as the Republican Party spends trying to portray itself as the Party of Israel, the reality is that the vast majority of #Jewish Americans vote for the Democratic Party instead."

  9. Thousands of #JewishAmericans and Allies Demand Cease-Fire in #Gaza

    "We as #AmericanJews believe that '#NeverAgain' means never again for anyone, and that includes #Palestinians," said #JewishVoiceForPeace

    "As the Biden administration's intent to silence dissent against the United States' backing of the Israel Defense Forces' onslaught in Gaza became increasingly clear Friday night, at least 80 #Jewish Americans and other supporters of Palestinians' #HumanRights were #arrested for #protesting outside the homes and offices of a number of Democratic lawmakers, where they demanded the U.S. government join growing calls for a cease-fire.

    "The U.S. group Jewish Voice for Peace (#JVP) organized the mass action, along with calling on Americans to contact their representatives in Congress and demand that they speak out against the air assault Israel launched this week in retaliation for #Hamas' brutal attack last weekend.

    "At least 2,215 Palestinians have been killed in airstrikes this week, and at least 8,714 people have been injured. The death toll in Israel has reached 1,300, according to Al Jazeera.

    "Human rights advocates have warned that a looming ground offensive by the #IDF in Gaza could rapidly push civilian casualties far higher.

    "On Friday, JVP led more than 2,000 protesters in five U.S. cities—#NewYorkCity, #SanFrancisco, #LosAngeles, #Chicago, and #Seattle—in demanding that senators and members of the U.S. House act to halt the '#genocide of Palestinians.'

    ''We as American Jews believe that 'never again' means never again for anyone, and that includes Palestinians," said JVP, referring to the refrain repeated by the Jewish American community regarding the need to prevent genocide. "'Never again' is this very moment."

    "Thousands of people gathered at Grand Army Plaza in Brooklyn and marched to Senate Majority Leader Chuck #Schumer's (D-N.Y.) home, where they blocked the road. Approximately 60 people were 'dragged away by police,' JVP said.

    "New York state Assemblymembers #ZohranMamdani (D-36) and #MarcelaMitaynes (D-51) were among those arrested."
