  1. 'At its 2025 convention, the DSA voted to support Palestinian resistance, […] affirming the right of return, Jerusalem as the capital. […] The resolution also declared that endorsing Zionist positions such as “Israel has a right to defend itself” could be an expellable offense. Delegates also passed a resolution titled “Labor for an Arms Embargo” with over 80 percent support.

    'At the same time, the convention showed an organization pulled in two directions — responding to the shifts in consciousness around Palestinian liberation, yet being tethered to a strategy that operates within the limits set by the Democratic Party. For instance, the convention voted down a resolution for a single secular Palestinian state, and turned away from formal alignment with BDS — positions that would have placed DSA too openly against the politics of the Democratic Party. Yet in contradiction, they also passed new rules requiring candidates to support BDS and cut ties with Zionist lobbies — an uneasy compromise that captures both the break and its limits.'

    Good job, #Rashida #Tlaib.

    >> She and her #Palestinian and #ArabAmerican #Brothers will soon #FindOut what #FAFO means in a #Trump presidency

    This happened sooner than I'd imagined after firing of Yoav #Gallant.

    RIP #FromTheRiverToTheSea Rashida.

    >> Israel's army waited until Trump's re-election was in the bag before announcing the official ethnic cleansing of the first half of Gaza.

  10. "Despite broad popular support for legislation to curtail police violence, Congress got nothing done. Democrats, despite controlling both the House and Senate in 2021 and 2022, slow-walked the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act, insisting on bipartisan support that never materialized."

    "Both #BLM activists voted into Congress have been pushed out."

    "Bowman and Bush have been routed out of Congress, thanks to a historic deluge of big-money spending against them. They battled challengers in the most and third-most-expensive congressional primaries in American history, respectively, and each was outspent roughly 4–1."

  12. CW: Waleed Shahid talked about influencing the Democratic Party

    "The strategy of building a faction both inside and outside the party is responding to the laws of gravity of our political system, but it’s becoming a lot harder, especially electorally, and especially because of this massive amount of spending from AIPAC, from cryptocurrency, and so on. When your candidate is unknown, elections are often built around how much money you can raise to increase your name recognition and to defend yourself from attacks."

    "The youth wing of the ceasefire moment is pretty opposed to, or ambivalent about, party politics and electoral politics, and is much more focused on mobilization and disruption in a way that is similar to Occupy Wall Street."

    "My hypothesis is that Muslim partisan loyalty to the Democratic Party is much thinner than it is with Jewish Americans, who are part of the Democratic Party for many reasons that have nothing to do with Israel – liberal and democratic values, social justice values.
    • Over the years, polls have shown that Jewish voters generally do not list Israel among their top five issues.
    • Many Muslims are part of the Democratic Party for its anti-racist values, so when the Gaza war is in contradiction with those values, it’s easy for them to leave."

    >> Do you think #Trump won’t support Israel?

    #DonaldTrump will absolutely arm #Netanyahu so that the latter can #finishTheJob (Bibi's words, not mine) faster.

    I wrote about this here, and in many other places 🙂 ➡️ mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/1

    This is why all those people, including Rashida #Tlaib and her #Muslim and #ArabAmerican constituency — who refuse to vote for #Democrats — will be worse off under Trump

  15. CW: US pol: would-be vice-presidents

    Here is a "feeble excuse" to not challenge Democratic candidates to vice-presidency:

    "We can better impact the nominee’s decision from the inside than agitating from the outside.

    "Meaningless blather. The only thing any of these top Democratic prospects wants is support and progressive sheen, and once they have it all the after-the-fact backslapping in the world will amount to nothing. Support which has no conditions is support that can be taken for granted, and support that can be taken for granted has no influence or real power.

    "It’s noteworthy that the sole Democratic Palestinian-American in Congress, Rep. Rashida Tlaib, has refused to support Biden over his backing of genocide. Why should she be made to bear all the risk, all the isolation? To make the point that desperately needs making? Where is the solidarity for her position? Why is it less important than far-off promises to expand medicare?"

  17. ⬆️ @Misterhighwasted @Bandersnatch @potus

    >> Not as unhinged as Rashida

    I have to agree with you on this one 🙂

    Rashida #Tlaib is in a league of her own when it comes to being unhinged.

    She has been trying hard to bring #Biden down since #Oct7 by appealing to all #ArabAmerican and #Muslim citizens to not #vote for Biden.

    They will completely deserve a 2nd #Trump presidency, and all the anti-Muslim pogroms that might come with that because of their own vote

  18. For #BDS #BDSHorseShoe-sympathesizers and #Tlaib, the scale of death and destruction that await #Muslims, #Jews, and entire humanity, regardless of race or ethnicity, will pale in comparison to what has happened so far in #Ukraine and #MiddleEast.

    Both #Gaza & #Ukraine #genocide are horrific, but the horror will increase by orders of magnitude if #cycleOfViolence is not broken.

    #Hamas wants a #permanentStateOfWar.

    #Putin want to reconstitute the former #SovietUnion in his #RevanchistDreams.
