I think 'The New Yorker' may have just published the greatest literary cartoon of all time, by Charlie Hankin.

#Ramaswamy just went after #antisemitism when in his very LAST response he said he wished #ElonMusk was moderating! Then he said antisemitism should not be dealt w/ by means of #censorship. #NBC missed an excellent follow up opportunity, they 100% should have asked if - in that case - Vivek would condemn the US #House of Representatives for #censoring #Palestinian Rep Rashida #Tlaib. You know, there’s no way in hell he’d do that.
#Thailand 's foreign ministry says the remains of seven nationals killed in #Hamas ' attack in #Israel will arrive in Bangkok on Thursday.
34 Thais were killed during or since the attack on 7 October. Another 24 Thai people are among the captives held by Hamas.
Thail officials say they have been in talks with Qatar, Iran and Eygpt authorities to negotiate their release.
Thailand provides almost all the foreign farm labour in Israel, more here:

Ya know, @GottaLaff, regardless of the comments, I think you were too kind. I would have gone with Princess Breathy McShiksa. But I’m not as nice as you are.
This is the 2nd time in < 2 wks that the US has #bombed facilities used by the #militant groups, many operating under the umbrella of the #Islamic Resistance in #Iraq, which #UnitedStates officials say have carried out at least 40 such attacks since Oct. 17.

SCOOP: A moderate, pro-Israel Jewish Democrat is preparing a measure to condemn Rep. Ryan Zinke for introducing legislation to expel Palestinians from the U.S. https://t.co/0yVvfs3FgG
I’m just making a point and not looking for an argument.
The reason #Israel will not agree to a ceasefire or even a temporary stop, is because #Hamas will simply rearm and continue their terroristic activities.
Israel is of the opinion that this maybe their best shot of rooting out #Hamas
From #Israels point of view, all of this, including #Palestinian deaths are the fault of Hamas.
The #AllenWeisselberg testimony went very badly, especially because it was reported that he perjured himself on the first day which would violate his release from #jail for his #criminal #TaxFraud conviction.

Did you know that the USA has *never* elected a Pakistani American to Congress?
I’d be the first—ever.
My campaign for Congress in IL-11 is about economic, climate, & social Justice. And it’s about representation, because representation matters.
How amazing a rebuke to bigotry if Americans stood United for justice & helped me make history? I need your support. Join my campaign for US Congress. Sign up to volunteer and donate any amount at www.qasimrashid.com — because justice cant wait.
I think it was Finland that did that, gave houses to all the homeless, ended it completely, and it paid for itself by saving all the resources previously used on homelessness
