are we witnessing the formation of the very first Democratic spine? Historic moment.

The question at hand is: Is there one single person in the Democratic Party who supports Jews' right to live in safety more than he or she fears a mean tweet from AOC.

btw the fact that they're even discussing it like this is yet more proof that the official position of the leadership is on AOC and Omar and Tlaib's side, as it has long been. This is the official party position, and there are a few dissenters who are scared to even go public.

also @RepRaskin let's talk. The many Jews of your district deserve better than this.

Note they're not even *considering* criticizing Omar for antisemitism, just for the latest bonkers false equivalence. If they can't even do that, the whole thing is a joke.

This suggests it's happening, the only debate is over the wording:

Just laughing picturing a room full of Democrats pep-talking each other, having a stiff drink or two, kneeling for prayer in the center of the room together--all to get up the courage to say "no Ilhan, the US isn't Hamas."

**congressman types Ilhan's twitter handle, plays 'Eye of the Tiger,' tells his family he lives them, types**

"I disagree."

Well here it is. Like putting the ice directly into the Manhattan, an otherwise stiff drink is watered down. It ain't nothing, but it ain't yet something
