Against the backdrop of rising fascism and antisemitism, we need to talk about what AIPAC is doing in Pittsburgh. With a house majority on the line, they’re spending $1 million to back a conservative Republican against a popular progressive Black woman in a deep-blue district.

This is the far-right playbook. Take the media spotlight off genocide in Gaza to put it on "liberal American universities." Use false accusations of antisemitism as a cynical ploy to take out Black leaders in positions of power. Watch liberal institutions and media fall for it.

@chrislhayes @Ruth_HHopkins TLDR: “With a combined $27B in net income, railroads can afford to give their workers paid leave and hire more staff to ensure the stability of their operations… But that would require the railroads’ owners to accept a cut in their passive income. They do not want to do that.”

Supporting this bill is the LAST way to respond to this moment. It delegitimizes anti-Semitism by using the word to silence criticism of Israel, at exactly the moment when we need it most. To do this after the deadliest attack on Jews in U.S. history is offensive and wrong.
