Haaretz reporting that the Israeli government paid for an online disinformation influence op aimed explicitly at Black US lawmakers, and flooding their posts with fake news links about mass rapes and the UNRWA being controlled by Hamas.

also leaning on islamaphobic accounts in Canada, and trying to push narratives to young Americans and Canadians that a Palestinian state would be antithetical to the progressive cause ‘because Arabs were slave traders’

Can’t make this up. Biden has been consulting with John Fetterman (!) on how to reach young voters disillusioned with Biden’s policy towards Gaza. from @jmart’s piece: politico.com/news/magazine/…

Still wild that the NYT piece cited this guy, who was fact-checked by Haaretz two months ago as having fabricated a viral claim about a pregnant woman with the fetus cut out of her. He was a major source for a lot of disproven viral claims about Oct 7.

I watched this guy give interviews to like 4-5 different foreign tv news channels (Israeli, US, UK, France, India) back in Oct, and he kept changing and embellishing key details. That definitely struck me. In early Dec, Haaretz debunked several of his widely shared claims.

you literally just celebrated signing into law a Republican led effort to end the payment pause, no matter what happens with SCOTUS this month

Covid reality: everything is open, 2k are dying per day –– 450k+ in the past year, few if any mitigation measures in place (a few cities with vax/pass, masking in some schools, stores, planes), immunocompromised totally exposed, rolling waves of staffing crises, mass infection. The real debate is like hey, maybe we should do some mitigation measures proactively, give people social assistance, try to slow the spread of a historically transmissible virus, and protect our hospitals, workers, and vulnerable. And that's been met with pundit class fantasy.

fuck every young climber that's like this to undocumented Americans, go do something else other than politics bit much guys, this shit isn't a game to some people, where you can just keep losing and cashing in with no consequences for yourself

This is just blatantly untrue. Sanders has released more health records than nearly all of his contemporaries –– three different physician summary letters. (thread documenting)

Here are those three physician summary letters, including a long and detailed overview of his full medical history from Sanders' (78) primary care physician.

The reason I keep hounding Warren on Medicare for All is that I think she's being fundamentally dishonest about her position, and is trying to muddle the debate and string people along, self-servingly. It's hard to watch her events or interviews and not get the clear impression that:
– she doesn't prioritize it, and rarely mentions it in her stump
– she defines it simply as universal healthcare, and "the best coverage for the lowest price"
– she doesn't have a "plan" posted

In Massachusetts, same polling company, poll from 2 weeks ago.

50% of Klobuchar
21% of Beto
19% of Biden
15% of Buttigieg
12.5% of Booker
6% of Bernie <—*
2% of Warren

... supporters would vote for Trump over Warren.

Whoops, there goes the narrative. In Wisconsin, last month, same polling company.

15% of Klobuchar
9% of Warren
6% of Bernie <—*
5% of Beto
4% of Biden

... supporters would vote for Trump over Warren.

Whoops, there goes the narrative.
