“Israel is a psychopath functioning in the infrastructure of impunity” - Gabor Maté, a Jewish psychiatrist who barely escaped the holocaust himself, makes a powerful case for ending holocaust denial surrounding Israel’s holocaust on Palestinians. Must see:

Democrats fail to call for a recorded vote and GOP passes its bill that cuts veteran disability benefits and forces veterans to pay more to use VA home loan benefits … on Veterans Day
This is the type of thing that would ideally be paid attention to and handled by party leadership. In this case, that would be Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Whip Katherine Clark.
This is less than 24 hours after they failed to whip members on a vote to impeach Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, which failed by a 210-204 vote margin with 11 absent Dem members.
Schumer is going 📉

I have no idea who the leader will be, but I promise you neither does this guy - or any other self-appointed expert on what’s possible. Trump just floated Nicki Minaj and Dana White for press secretary! These are not ordinary times!

How embarrassing @SecWar
A soldier guarding the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier issued a verbal reprimand to a group of advisers and staffers with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth following a Veterans Day ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. As the group broke from taking photos, a loud laugh could be heard, and the soldier guarding the tomb shouted: “All visitors will maintain an atmosphere of silence and respect at all times.”
Sounds bad.

"Today is Veterans Day, and to mark the occasion, a new monument to Trump has shown up on the National Mall..."

Just spitballing here, but isn’t the point of a democracy to make the will of the people the law of the land? Why the hell are politicians who try to do what the country is begging for called “extreme“ and the ones pushing against it called “moderates”?

I haven’t spoken to a single Democratic member whose office HASN’T been inundated and overwhelmed by calls opposing Jeffries for Speaker.
WATCH — @RepJeffries: “There’s no indication members of Congress have been overwhelmed by any calls.”
(This gaslighting seems to contradict what @axios @AndrewSolender have reported, and the million+ signatures on a petition for new leadership @MarkRuffalo helped circulate)
Margo Jones retweeted
How is anyone ok with this? Why are we funding these lunatics?
The sick part of Trump and Hegseth’s boat bombings is we don’t even have the moral high ground to criticize this.
Also, the dog ate my homework.
Like Rep. Stansbury, I was stuck behind the same police escort blocking the Capitol when Republicans closed the vote. I would have voted no and believe strongly that Pete Hegseth should be impeached.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
415 members voted on the motion. Reporting indicates the police-escorted bus incident occurred 3.9 miles from the Capitol with no blockage preventing access to the building. The schedule was known since November 9.

From being a Columbia University encampment organizer to becoming the next Congresswoman for Columbia University's district. 💗
Hegseth could do a fuckton of damage between now and when the newly elected Democrats are able to vote him out. There's so much at stake here, this is a major failure by house Dems and this is why Dem approval rate is so low - they aren't fighting like we need them to.

These questions by the CNN anchor are frankly embarrassing
Rep. Adam Hamawy tells a seemingly incredulous CNN anchor that, when it comes to Iran, the United States is “making adversaries when we should be making friends.”
