LOL! Too perfect. Billionaire private equity megadonor Stephen Schwarzman says he'll start funding Trump again because he's so concerned about anti-Semitism. This shows you why the GOP is so obsessed with trying to make a wedge out of this issue: it gets results ($$$$$$)

Biden Administration's special envoy for anti-Semitism, Deborah Lipstadt, explains her insightful 'horseshoe' theory of how anti-Semitism unites 'extremists' on both Left and Right, which is what makes anti-Semitism 'more frightening' than other forms of prejudice and hate

State Department says it convened a 'first of its kind' symposium yesterday to 'confront online anti-Semitism.' Participants included Google, Meta, TikTok, and X. Would love to know more about what remedial actions were agreed upon, and what definition of 'anti-Semitism' was used

If you think it's some kind of major betrayal that Nikki is going to be back on the 'team,' after she was on the 'team' the first time and Trump absolutely loved it, you're just a 'mark' and there's a reason why Trump no longer has any political need to cater to your delusions

If the Biden Administration focused more on stuff like this than spreading democracy to Ukraine and Israel, they might be in a better political position right now

Online MAGAs keep saying stuff like 'This is the final straw!' and 'He'll really lose me this time!' as if they forgot who his first Vice President was, who his Secretary of State was, UN Ambassador, etc. There's never been any evidence that he's 'changed.' They just constantly

Why would Trump 'burn down' the American national security state or American global hegemony? So he has less power to wield? Does Trump strike you as someone who's looking to diminish his own power? You guys are seriously deluded

This whole conceit that Trump supposedly keeps failing to “learn” these secret lessons from his first administration contains the implicit assumption that this isn’t exactly who Trump is, and has always been. It’s a displacement of agency from Trump, like he’s a child. Tiresome

Trump says Nikki Haley is 'going to be on our team' because the two of them share 'a lot of the same ideas.' The 2024 GOP Primary was a giant scam to convince suckers and dupes that Trump had any major policy differences with people he had previously hired, endorsed, and elevated

Something to bear in mind about 'pro-Israel' Evangelicals is that they don't just believe Israel is a fulfillment of Biblical prophecy, they believe *America* is a part of that prophecy, and has a special divine mission to support Israel out of shared 'Judeo-Christian heritage'

The Pentagon released photos from a tour of the 'training facility for dolphins and sea lions' at the Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific in San Diego. Gotta admit, this is a pretty good one
