I think she will not have the character if I had to place a bet
Given this video of El-Sayed’s answer, the question now is will Haley Stevens apologize to him? She accused him of apologizing for violence, which he very clearly did not do. Will be interesting to see if she has the character to do the right thing here.

🇺🇸 🇵🇸 Sama Safi, a 20-year-old American citizen and honors psychology student at Birzeit University, remains in Israeli detention after soldiers seized her from her family’s home near Ramallah at 3 a.m. on June 2, with lawmakers warning her life is at risk.
Safi, whose family lives in Florida, was taken without charge and transferred to Ofer prison, then to the Moscovia interrogation center in Jerusalem, according to the Palestinian Prisoners’ Society. Her family says she has a chronic condition that causes fevers up to 105°F and requires daily medication and a quarterly injection she travels abroad to receive.
She was one of five Palestinian women detained that week, including two members of the Palestinian women’s national football team. The Israeli military said the women were suspected of “promoting terrorist activities.”
Rep. Rashida Tlaib and Sen. Chris Van Hollen have both demanded her release. “I am really sick and tired of the Israeli government taking American taxpayer dollars and then mistreating Americans,” Van Hollen said. Israel has not told her family or the U.S. embassy where she is being held. Rep. Tlaib said, “Her life is at risk—our government must free her now!”
Sama Safi is a 20-year old U.S. citizen and student who was kidnapped by Israeli soldiers from her family home at 3am last week and remains in Israeli prison. She has a chronic health condition and requires daily medication. Her life is at risk—our government must free her now!

Media’s framing of Platner as some kind of manopshere referendum on gender is idiotic. Women actually prefer Platner to Collins, as polling consistently shows, whereas men prefer Collins. You’ll never see this in a headline though because everything has to be culture war bs

Big or small, Reynoso broke his promise.
Jun 10
Antonio Reynoso just admitted he takes real estate money, just not from "big" real estate. You be the judge:
- $7,000 from NJ power broker and real estate/casino developer Joseph Jacobs
- $4,000 from Stephen Nislick, an executive at a company that brags about being "one of the nation's largest developers of industrial real estate"
- $7,000 from Daniel McNeil, one of the largest commercial real estate developers in central New York
- $5,000 from Abe Betesh, who settled a human rights case with NYC for Section 8 discrimination
- $3,500 from Michael Ambrosino, indicted for defrauding NY's 421-a tax break

“NBC’s Matt Gorman” is an outrageous way to describe this man to NBC viewers when he has most recently been a registered foreign agent for the state of Israel.
That NBC doesn’t disclose that, and that they allow him on air to attack Platner, is exactly why normal people support Platner and want him to take a wrecking ball to this corruption.
Gorman’s contract with the Israeli ministry of foreign affairs appears to have recently terminated, so perhaps this is a try out for a new one.
To let him on air and not disclose this is shameful.

NBC's @MattGorman on Graham Platner...
"I think Susan Collins is going to beat him like a drum, and I believe that even before the story came out yesterday. I mean, you're right. This was an incredible story with, you know, abuse allegations and infidelity. Two of the other things I took away from it, besides he just seems to be a liar, is the fact that (a) his comments that he did not dispute about if someone broke into his apartment, he would quote, he would essentially rape them, and it was about dominance, not sex. Incredible. What an egregious, awful statement to make. And the other thing is, to Megan's point, it's a further confirmation past a CNN article a few weeks ago that he knew what the Nazi tattoo was and did not dispute that until he disputed it with Chris Hayes last night as well."
"And I think part of the anger you get from some in the GOP is we remember folks like what Sheldon Whitehouse did during the Kavanaugh hearings when he went five questions deep on what 'boofing' was. And yesterday, when stopped in a hallway, he said the story was a lot of nothing. And so it's the -- a -- morality on someone like his part when we -- there's one standard when it was Kavanaugh in 2018 and quite another when it's Graham Platner."
"Infidelity? I will not condone that. Whether it's Graham Platner or Ken Paxton. I haven't heard allegations Ken Paxton abusing women. I haven't heard Ken Paxton going on kik, which is, quote, called 'a paradise for child predators.' I won't excuse infidelity, but I'm also not going to draw a line between Graham Platner's abuse -- abuse allegations and what Ken Paxton did either."

Israeli opposition leader is trying to earn political points by saying that "Netanyahu made a deal with an Arab member of Knesset!"
Imagine actively trying to prove that you're more racist than Netanyahu...

There's a fascist in the White House. For New York to put new restrictions on the right to assemble is a terrible idea.
And the illegal sale of Palestinian land should be protested.

Without a doubt. The pretext of all of this is obscuring JD Vance being 1/2 a degree away from the Emperor of Pedophiles! He is at best a craven dullard who is fine with all of this, but let’s make sure to bury him while we still can

Subtext of all this reporting is Vance’s team leaking like crazy to salvage his political future & make him seem like the principled maverick in the administration

The US is proposing intelligence sharing with Israel in the same breath that Israel is found spying on US officials?!?!
Jun 10
Section 224 has gotten attention. Section 622 hasn't, but it should.
Buried in the 192-page Senate intelligence authorization bill is a provision that would require US intelligence agencies to share classified intelligence on virtually every topic of Middle East interest with Israel.
Any pause or reduction would require congressional approval from a Congress that has shown little appetite for restricting Israel.
This is the same strategy as Section 224: take what used to be a public, congressionally appropriated relationship — one the public could pressure lawmakers to restrict — and move it somewhere less visible, less accountable, and harder to reverse.
