The short version for normal people:
1. Put a passkey or authenticator app on your email
2. Turn on automatic updates
3. Freeze your credit at all three bureaus (it's free)
4. Pick a family code word for panicked "it's me, send money" calls

No, I’m a genocide-loathing Jew.
My grandparents survived Auschwitz. Seeing the numbers on their arms growing up taught me one simple thing: “Never again” meant “never again” for anyone.

What you don't understand is that you're arguing it is essentially Jewish to drag a donkey to death behind a truck, to drone bomb food relief convoys, to assassinate EMTs and bury the ambulances in the desert, and THAT insane ideology is an enormous threat to Jewish safety.
Piker reveals what he doesn't understand: for millions of Jews, Zionism - the belief in a Jewish homeland - is inseparable from Judaism. Agree with them or not, fine, but Piker is a leading force in an illiberal movement to turn the word "Zionist" into a slur. The purpose of a slur is to dehumanize those whom it describes. That is why he is dangerous.

The options are either
1. Globohomo 2089 where a trans FtM half-viet half-irish femboy from Lunar Colony 3 can serve your geriatric ass an Tehran-style Impossible Meat Chicago Pizza.
2. Nuclear Holocaust ft. IsraelGPT
And sheeple are begging for #2 like the cowards they are.

生きるとは何なのだろうか。
久しぶりにすごく酔っ払って、事故現場に来て、少しだけ考えました。
娘の立会い出産で「生」を見て、霊安室で妻と娘の「死」を見た。
事故から7年。
自分の命にどれほどの価値があるのだろうかと、何千回も考えた。
たぶん、生きることに最初から決められた意味はないと思う。
でも、意味がないからこそ、美しいのかもしれない。
意味がないからこそ、その意味は自分で自由に与えられる。
私は、妻と娘が生き様で見せてくれた世界を肯定したい。
その世界を、これからも少しずつ生きていきたい。今も2人は私の生きる道標だと思う。

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE CLEAR: NO MORE U.S. AID TO ISRAEL
Today, the U.S. House of Representatives will vote on an amendment introduced by Rep. Thomas Massie to cut the $3.3 billion in annual U.S. military aid to Israel. I strongly support this amendment.
Israel, like any other country, had the right to defend itself against the horrific terrorist attack by Hamas on October 7, 2023, which killed 1,200 innocent people. But it did not have the right to go to war against the entire Palestinian population. It did not have the right to kill more than 73,000 Palestinians and wound over 173,000 more — the vast majority of them women, children and the elderly. It did not have the right to destroy virtually the entire infrastructure of Gaza — the schools, the health facilities, the water systems, wastewater plants, the electric grid that a civilian population depends on to survive. It did not have the right to destroy or damage 92% of all housing units in Gaza. In other words, Israel did not have the right to commit genocide. And it did not have the right to escalate its violence and annexation of the West Bank while the world's attention was focused elsewhere.
Tragically, almost five months ago, Israel, with strong support from the Trump administration, launched a reckless and illegal war against Iran — a war that has killed thousands of people and left an already unstable region of the world even more unstable. That war expanded into Lebanon, where Israeli strikes have now killed more than 4,000 people and displaced some 20% of the entire Lebanese population. That is not "defending Israel". These are regional wars of expansion and terror, waged without a clear strategy, and without an end in sight.
The American people are catching on. Polls show that nearly three-quarters of Democratic voters now oppose sending military aid to Israel, as do more than one-third of Republican voters. Just 16% of all Americans support giving Israel unconditional aid.
And I am proud that this past April, 40 out of 47 Senate Democrats — a record number — supported my bill to block arms sales to the far-right, extremist Netanyahu government.
We have enormous unmet needs in our own country. Today, while 60% of our people are living paycheck to paycheck, tens of millions of Americans cannot afford housing, healthcare, childcare and other basic needs. Congress must focus on the needs of their constituents, not an Israeli government that is undermining American values. I urge my colleagues in the House to vote yes on the Massie amendment.

Hi architect here! Buildings only do this when they are under extreme stress.

It is okay to be Jewish.
It is okay to attend your local synagogue.
It is okay to celebrate Hannukah.
It is not okay to use white phosphorus on civilians in Gaza and Lebanon.

Yes, we are aware that you would vote for Satan incarnate if he would give you your earthly desires. This shocks no one. You are not who people are trying to convince. You are the living damned.
Since I’m going to be hearing this for the next 6 months as a Texas voter, let me answer the question:
“You would vote for an adulterer over James Talarico? That’s not very Christian.”
Here’s the truth: I would rather vote for almost anyone else who is going to at least advocate for conservative *policies* over a literal heretic who wears my faith like a skin suit, advocates for policies that harm children, endorses immorality and generally harm society.
Ken Paxton has personal baggage. I don’t deny that. But Talarico has plenty too — and he openly mocks God’s law and treats Jesus as a political mascot all while pushing a radical far-left agenda that would be a disaster for my state.
You see, I’m an adult. I do not expect those who are seeking political office to be my moral superiors or even trustworthy. They are tools to be used to do the least amount of damage via policy.
I wish more pastors and men who live godly lives were running. I really do. But the options we get are what they are.
Paxton supports secure borders, law enforcement, lower taxes, unleashing American energy, the Second Amendment, just to name a few.
Talarico supports unlimited abortion, trans-ing children, higher taxes, government-run “healthcare,” and is incredibly comfortable blaspheming the word of God.
I’m not voting for a priest. I’m voting for an imperfect person to represent my interests. That’s how it works.
You’re not going to guilt trip Texans into supporting a looney tunes candidate like Talarico. Paxton will win by 5+.
It’s about policy, not personality.
