ALERT: Kelly Loeffler just posed for a photo with Chester Doles, a former KKK leader who runs the white supremacist American Patriots USA.

In 1993, Doles nearly beat a Black man to death.

In 2017, he marched in Charlottesville.

This is who @KLoeffler is proudly appealing to. Image description: A screen...
Chester Doles made headlines earlier this year when he posed for photos with @mtgreenee, the QAnon-supporting Representative-elect.

Kelly Loeffler knows who he is & took a photo with him — because her campaign is built on catering to white supremacists.

Kelly Loeffler’s campaign claims she didn’t know who Chester Doles is.

But he was removed from a Loeffler & Marjorie Taylor Greene rally in September — and Loeffler said the same thing then.

Doesn’t work twice. @KLoeffler is embracing white supremacy.

On Friday, Kelly Loeffler posed for a smiling photo with white supremacist Chester Doles.

On Tuesday, she’s sharing his message with her followers.

@KLoeffler and the Georgia Republican Party are catering to white supremacists.
Why does @KLoeffler keep posing for photos or meeting with white supremacists?

Answer: it's her campaign platform. It's who she is.

Columbia student and New Yorker, Mahmoud Khalil - who was targeted and detained for constitutionally protected speech - should be home with his 8 months pregnant wife today.

Not missing in ICE detention, unreachable by his lawyers.

The White House's authoritarian actions are being falsely done in our name as Jews, by a President and politicians who actively use antisemitism and do not speak for Jews.

We’ve been afraid this day would come since campus protests began. Free speech and education are pillars of our democracy, and a healthy democracy is what keeps Jews safest.

This is an attack on both.

You’ve heard of the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, and its plan to help Trump disassemble US democracy to replace it with an authoritarian right wing Christian ethnostate.

No, Rep. Rashida Tlaib did not say Michigan AG @dananessel charged pro-Palestinian protesters because the AG is Jewish. 🧵

metrotimes.com/news/fact-chec…
The claim by @RashidaTlaib was that Michigan's AG, through her whole tenure, had never filed charges against protestors doing civil disobedience from other issues like police violence and climate until it came to Palestinians, a common institutional bias in the US.

2/ “We’ve had the right to dissent, the right to protest,” Tlaib says. “We’ve done it for climate, the immigrant rights movement, for Black lives, and even around issues of injustice among water shutoffs. But it seems that the attorney general decided if the issue was Palestine, she was going to treat it differently, and that alone speaks volumes about possible biases within the agency she runs.”
The @ACLU itself made the same claim, saying it represents "a pattern of excessive response by law enforcement to the campus protests".

BREAKING: A new poll from JDCA confirms what we already know:

American Jews are not a monolith or single-issue voters, and our priorities this election are as diverse as our multi-faith, multiracial community. 🧵

1/
American Jews ranked the future of democracy as a top priority, followed by issues like abortion, climate change, antisemitism, and immigration.

Israel ranked 9th for Jewish voters when deciding which candidate to support.

2/ Image
The poll also shows that — just like in 2020 and 2016 — Jews overwhelmingly reject Trump.

72% of Jewish voters back Kamala Harris, while only 25% support Donald Trump.

In the last 24 hours we’ve learned that the ongoing violence has claimed an additional 6 Israeli hostages and at least 47 Palestinians.

We grieve with all of the families and people in deep pain over this tremendous — and avoidable — loss of life.

🧵
We’ve learned the only American who is able to stop it with a stroke of a pen, President @JoeBiden, continues to refuse to enforce his own red line, and make good on his own promise to stop offensive weapons to Israel.

2/
We’ve learned that the person leading this nation with him, VP @KamalaHarris, who is promising Americans a new chapter, is doubling down on militarism which will only take more precious lives.

Jewish people are a vital part of the fight against fascism in this country.

📽️Watch our new video on Project 2025, how the GOP targets Jews, and how we can stop them.

🧵
After Trump's first victory, the right, nor Trump, were prepared to win, so they didn't prepare to use (and abuse) the White House to its fullest, unimaginable potential.

#Project2025 is their response to that, a 900 page plan to build a far right government, in waiting.

2/
And Project 2025 isn't just a plan anymore.

They've created a private sort of "LinkedIn" where they're recruiting, hiring and training people to immediately take hold of every nook in government they can, large and small.
