May her memory be a blessing.

And for everyone who’s done so, please stop throwing the “new and improved” Hamas charter in my face. Their goal is to wipe out every Jew.

Canadian Israeli peace activist Vivian Silver, feared to be held hostage, confirmed killed in Hamas attacks-

A person on my feed boosted a post by @wardrup, and I watched this video as a result. I have to say that it is about as powerful a statement against Nazism as I can imagine. I have hundreds of neighbors, acquaintances & family that I wish could/would watch it. Perhaps one or two of them might wake up & understand that the path they have taken is flawed.

Here it is if you missed it

Maybe the judge is meeting with #Habba to tell her not to violate his gag order about targeting his clerk? Or her filing for a mistrial that she mentioned on Maria Bartiromo's show.
BTW, Note how #Bartiromo used the opportunity to BRING UP the clerk & her alleged donations to the Democrats.
Bartiromo is helping to create an appearance of bias by the judge.
This is how #Fox assists Trump. Repeating allegations & misinformation about the scope of the gag order.

If it weren't for the war, Israelis would likely be protesting to remove the IL PM:

Less than 4% of Jewish Israelis trust #Netanyahu as a reliable source of info. -poll of Jewish Israelis 4 weeks after the Oct 7 attack *examined patterns of info. consumption by Israelis during the current conflict -IL public trusts the most. They trust IDF spokesman Hagari topped the list w 73.7% of the ppl polled-singled him out as the most trustworthy source of info.

Ahead of tomorrow's hearing, att'ys for David Shafer call for Judge McAfee to reject Fulton prosecutors' push for broad protective order...say #FaniWillis failed to meet burden of showing “substantial threat of physical or econ harm to a partic witness”

They provide an alt order - backed by att'ys for #Trump + 4 others - that wd require DA’s office to designate certain evidence as ‘sensitive materials’ & give defendants 14 days to contest the designation #legal #Georgia

@georgetakei I'm convinced that the real reason for Tuberville's blockade is that he's holding those positions open for Trump to fill with loyalists.

If we weren't teetering on the brink of a fascist takeover this would all be so entertaining. As it stands, it's just hilarifying.

After Bob Menendez indictment, this Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) resolution would ban senators charged with certain crimes from attending classified briefings. https://govtrackinsider.com/after-bob-menendez-indictment-resolution-would-ban-senators-charged-with-certain-crimes-from-56a5f979a619

About time!

“Senate Rules Committee voted along party lines on Tuesday to advance a resolution that would allow Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) to confirm more than 350 military promotions being held up by Sen. Tommy #Tuberville (R-Ala.) in a single package.

The resolution, however, would not apply to nominees to the Joint Chiefs of Staff or commanders nominated to lead Combatant Commands”

It’s so tiring to have to constantly bail these wacko Republicans out but a government shutdown is a non-starter.

If we avoid one, I hope the media at large gives credit where it’s due: to Democrats.

Senior officers are now retiring early instead of waiting for Sen. #Tuberville’s hold on #military promotions to end — and more will do so if the blockade continues, said the Secretary of the Army at POLITICO’s annual #Defense Summit.

No. It's an attempt to patch over a weakness in the DOJ's argument.

My prediction (or you can just call it a guess) is that most of the gag order will stand, but a few parts will be stricken.
