“The opposition is nearing single digits at this point and establishment and moderate Republicans are proving just how meaningless those two descriptors have always been when applied to them. They are proving that the GOP ethos is absolutely clear: party—the MAGA party—over country. The assumption is that Jordan is promising them something, and that he will be able to deliver that something better than anyone else could. Yes, the same Jordan that former Speaker John Boehner called a “legislative terrorist.” The same Jordan who tried to overturn the 2020 election. The one who was on the phone with Donald Trump the morning of Jan. 6, 2021—mere hours before the MAGA mob attacked the Capitol, invaded their chamber, and threatened every member of Congress’s health and lives.”

‘Moderate’ House Republicans folding like cheap tents for insurrectionist Jordan’s speaker bid
There is no such thing as a “moderate” Republican.
Because I'm only seeing other Jews posting about this, non-Jews I need you to be aware that for the past month or two there has been a wave of bomb threats and swattings at synagogues all across the US. They usually do it when services are being livestreamed. I haven't seen a single non-Jew talking about this. High holidays are coming up in a few weeks, which is when most attacks happen against our communities. We're worried, and we need people to know what's happening to us.

a literal terrorist group, hezbollah: oh yeah we just fired another rocket at the jews
hezbollah after learning that it was arab children killed: nooo we didn't do it nooo believe us we would never do such a thing
people on this website, for some reason: i believe you 100% it was obviously staged by israel because everything you guys say is the compelte truth
if any of y’all were wondering what leftist antisemitism can look like, here’s an example:
here’s the rhetoric they’re blatantly borrowing from:
so yeah, there absolutely is antisemitism that is unique to leftism and if you try to argue there isn’t that is probably because you agree with it!
also before you try to whine abt this in the notes, i am a leftist jew. cry to someone else.
I genuinely believe that a lot of the reason that the American left is so ineffectual and self-sabotaging is because of how deeply and unrepentantly calvinist it is.
Hey remember when Queen Elizabeth died and all of Tumblr had a collective crab rave and the tags were trending because fuck imperialism and colonialism? Yeah where's the same energy for President Raisi......
i don't even know how to rationalize the amount of hate i got exactly one year ago. i can't understand people gleefully rejoicing in the murder of my friends. i can't make sense of that, how deep-rooted some people hate is that they see an israeli mourn and decide to laugh in their faces. a normal person would just leave me alone but antisemitism makes y’all stupid and you cant help it. less than an hour into the massacrare and people were talking about “context” and “nuance” in my inbox. i didn’t just lose my friends a year ago, a thing that is terrible enough on its own, i feel like i’ve also lost my innocence when it came to just just how massive antisemitism is and how blind most people are to the fact that they are antisemites. how most people don’t think twice about it. how can they be antisemites? they never even met a jew, so how could they hate us. they’re just anti-zionist, anti-israel, pro-palestinian. whatever helps them sleep at night, thinking they’re punching nazis through the computer screen, they’re on the good side of history. maybe they rationalized it but i cant, i’ll never understand.
I haven’t yet seen a tumblr post with these resources so I am making my own and hoping it shows up in the tags. I ASK EVERYONE WHO SEES THIS TO PLEASE REBLOG THIS.
THE INDIAN CHILD WELFARE ACT (ICWA) IS UNDER ATTACK. AND WE NEED HELP TO PROTECT IT USING THE RESOURCES BELOW.
I am not going to go into heavy detail on the bill, on its history, anything like that, the resources have a lot of information, but as a little bit of background:
It is a bill passed that forbids Native children from being adopted by non-Native families. This is for a good fucking reason, there have been historically large scoops of children taken from their Native families, at a much higher rate than white children (see the 60s scoop in Canada). These children are often abused in these homes, and their entire culture is taken from them (many end up not even knowing what tribe/nation they came from), hence the point of why they were taken in the first place (forced assimilation). Now, this does still happen through the foster care system, but this has protected in the case of adoption. It makes it that only Native families can adopt Native children.
White people hate this and have been smearing it for years (think of the whole Lexi Choctaw/Alexandria P. situation, which was so fucked how they used that little girl). Now, the state governments of Texas, Louisiana, and Indiana have taken it to the Supreme Court to be ruled unconstitutional. This case is called Haaland v. Brackeen. Because white people … really want to steal Native children. This is being heard by the court, oral arguments start WEDNESDAY. ICWA could be overturned in the matter of weeks or even days.
PLEASE USE ALL OF THESE TO PROTECT ICWA:
Petition that will involve you sending messages to your Congressional leaders through their text automated system, only available to those in the US (BUT NOTE YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A CITIZEN, OR ELIGIBLE TO VOTE TO SIGN, JUST NEED TO BE IN THE US):
https://resist.bot/petitions/PCCPGW
Petition to send a message to President Biden and leaders at the Department of Justice, this does have a place to put in your country so seems like it may be available for those outside of the US but I am unsure (consider also donating to the Lakota People’s Law Project if you are able to):
https://action.lakotalaw.org/action/protect-icwa
Petition to be sent to the Attorney General and Secretary of the Department of the Interior, since it is through change.org it likely can be signed from outside of the US:
https://www.change.org/p/protect-the-indian-child-welfare-act
PLEASE SIGN AS MANY AS YOU ARE ABLE TO. PLEASE REBLOG IF YOU SEE THIS. PLEASE HELP US PROTECT ICWA.
