CNN admitting its role in the Covid coverup and then saying 'we won't do it again' is really an amazing moment that probably deserves more attention.
Found the state media!
The sexual harassment stuff is juicy too (hence it gets the headline) but I'm much more interested in the continued findings of Cuomo and his brother's coronavirus antics and CNN's refusal take seriously washingtonpost.com/politics/chris…
"The state doctor who administered tests to Chris Cuomo and his family, Eleanor Adams, recently resigned from her government position, the health department confirmed."

So there were consequences for someone!
CNN's response to both these lapses has been essentially 'well yeah Chris talks to his brother' which suggests they are making no active efforts to stop it. Well, what can ya do!
Read today's along with this one to get the full picture washingtonpost.com/politics/andre…
On left, CNN defending Cuomo's involvement in his brother's coronavirus scheme. On right, CNN basically yawning at Cuomo's involvement in his brother's strategy sessions:
Appreciate the honesty, I guess, but these are two really big admissions! Treat them as such!

"The faction that replaced the party leadership and for whom the speaker of the House personally intervened to help them defeat more pro-Israel Democrats in the primary are criticizing Israel, but what does former Rep. Steve Israel say?" is a hell of a delusion.
If you think I'm kidding, I am absolutely not kidding:

Couple years ago when a New Yorker writer tweeted that Zionism and white supremacy are birds of a feather I was surprised he said it out loud. Things are getting less surprising.
Good call.

One thing I've noticed from seeing various conversations with pundits and writers on twitter today: when someone brings up the 'proportionate response' canard and is then asked to define it, the conversation hits an abrupt wall.
The more honest among them are like AOC--they complain that Israel has Iron Dome and Hamas doesn't, so they're arguing what others think but try not to say: not enough dead Israelis.
They also make clear they don't think Hamas's response--starting a cross border war by repeatedly and intentionally bombing civilian centers--is 'disproportionate' to the offense. Which is how you know they define 'disproportionate' as 'Israel=bad.'

Israel is gamergate
We went from 'Israel has no right to exist' to 'Israel doesn't exist.' Gotta hand it to the antisemites, they're always on a forward march.
Between this and MSNBC's Ayman Mohyeldin's line of questioning yesterday, it's clear this is where we're headed. Denying Israel's existence is what they've settled on.

I signed what's come to be known as the #JewishHarpersLetter supporting open discourse and I want to take a moment to explain why. You can read the letter and my fellow original signatories here: jilv.org/be-heard/
First, I should point everyone to this fantastic piece by David L. Bernstein, a veteran Jewish community official, about his role in trying to facilitate dialogue and being told to account for 'white' Jewish 'complicity' in racist systems jewishjournal.com/commentary/334…
A major concern of mine is the way Jews do not fit in to America's dominant model of discourse on race. Few things can make US Jews so clearly 'otherized' than the erasure that comes with being told your participation is determined by the shade of your skin tone.
