Hey @GOPLeader. @davidmweissman walks around like an unaffiliated white but pulls his “as a Jew card” for politics. I however am visibly Jewish; an ethnicity whose members are being beat up after a week of inflammatory language by @AOC @IlhanMN. At this time, please focus there.
When visibly Jewish people faced dozens of assaults in 2019 and nasty language from politicos in 2020, some members of the tribe were MIA. But the MINUTE they can score political points, they pull the “as a Jew” line.

Well, AS A JEW fight hatred no matter the source, you HACKS!
Most Jews murdered by the Nazis were not identifiably Jewish. Haters hate no matter how affiliated.

But if you move around like a white guy with a lower chance of facing hate assaults, and you are also MIA when visibly Jewish peopele are beaten, don’t “as a Jew” me for politics.
It’s a stone-cold day in hell when the Executive Director of the Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) condemns anti-Jewish hate more clear cut; more to the point and without any snark against Israel than all you “As a Jew” accounts combined. This is very powerful. WOW!
Bernie Sanders just All Lives Mattered antisemitism and this Jen (who won 28% of the Dem Primary vote in a FL House race last year) thinks that antisemitism in the US should go on as long that Israel has funds to protect against Hamas and Iran.

That’s the “as a Jew” crowd.

Leaders at Twitter jump when there is negative information regarding Coronavirus vaccine despite the fact that the CDC/FDA highlight those issues. It’s as if @TwitterSupport has more confidence in those vaccines than FDA/CDC. Why hide side effects that CDC/FDA alone say R legit?
This NYT headline and quote from a doctor are amazing: There are reports of inflammation next to the heart in dozens of young people who took the Coronavirus vaccine, but it’s not yet determined it is from the vaccine; it’s possibly just a coincidence. #myocarditis
Fauci said days ago that if 70% of the population is vaccinated, a major outbreak in the fall will be avoided.

Kids under 18 are 22% of the population; we can reach 70% with out them. They are a fraction of Coronavirus deaths and a fraction of their deaths is from Coronavirus.

1/4 When floodgates are opened from countries where intolerance and violence is embedded in the education and culture, you get the same results in the new countries.

Try all you want to have me only worried about white supremacy, but we need look at hate from all sources!
2/4 Since mid-2015 so much focus about antisemitism was on whites. But almost - if not - all physical hate attacks on visibly Jewish people in NY and NJ in recent years have been by bigots of color. Hatred comes in all colors (literally). Stop politicizing it. Be real about it!
3/4 Unlike the “as a Jew” crowd, I don’t ID publicly “as a Jew” just when it fits my politics. Plus, I spend time daily running an org focused on bigotry against visibly Jewish people. I know this issue better than most of the clowns who pop off in need retweets. The fact is that

Lawmakers in Congress (as well as opinion hosts) who use inflammatory language, loaded with verifiable lies and lack of current-day context when discussing the flareup, are fueling physical attacks against Jews. cc @AliVelshi @Trevornoah @AOC @IlhanMN @RashidaTlaib @USJewishDems
When listening to the lawmakers and commentators above, you don’t know that 1.5 million Arabs in the Israel-controlled areas of Israel are free to vote, work, travel, be openly LGBT, be appointed to judgeships, be elected to the Parliament and have Sharia Courts.
More Arabs R elected to the Israeli Parliament than the number of civilian Jews who can walk freely in Gaza, yet @AOC uses the Aprtheid term against Israel; not against Hamas which controls Gaza and BTW refuses to hold elections since 2005; same is the case with Fatah in the WB.

Since the start of 2020 through May 8, 2021, children age 0-17 were 1 of every 103 deaths in the US.

This age group was 1 out of every 1,979 Coronavirus deaths.

This is 19 times lower than the former.

Raw Data:

43,258 children died of all causes.

287 died with Coronavirus.
A retort to the above is:

“287 lives are nothing?”

Answer: We didn’t turn the world upside down due to the natural loss of 43,258 children lives since the start of 2020. Doing so for 287 may cause more harm than gain.

87.7 kids die a day.
0.58 of a child per day with Covid-19.
Another retort:

“Death is not the only harm done to kids by Coronavirus.”

Answer: True, but a certain level of illness leads to a certain level of deaths. Since Coronavirus deaths is 0.58 of a child a day, it means the non-death incidents are lower than what some think it is.

What’s there to investigate? You already impeached Trump for it and spoke the last 4 months as if everything is figured out.

@ChrisRBarron once again, it’s a feature; not a bug. (Feature being that useful, self-stabbing idiots are Republicans).
The Ranking Republican on the Homeland Security committee in Congress (@RepJohnKatko) voted to impeach Trump for 1/6/21.

He is establishing a bipartisan commission that will look as to what led to the 1/6/21 which Katko already thinks Trump caused it so Y need a commission?
The latest is yet another example of my point that idiots/losers are Republicans.

The only PR outcome of a 1/6/21 commission will be to blame Trump so why agree? The leading Republican to organize this commision voted to impeach Trump for 1/6/21 so you know where this is going.
