The Green Party of the United States recognizes Zionism, as defined in this proposal and manifested through ethnonational supremacy, displacement, dispossession, segregation, occupation, and the systematic privileging of one population over another, as a form of racism. gp.org/proposal_1332_zionism…

All the people acting surprised that AOC, Ro Khanna, Zohran Mamdani, Summer Lee and all the progressives are all supporting Hakeem Jeffries and refuse to budge on that position are fake af
I’ve been warning you guys about this for MONTHS and MONTHS now
It has been a core part of my thesis on why the progressive movement is completely fraudulent. They claim they support progressive policies while endorsing the system that prevents them from happening. But instead of calling out this fraud that was committed against the working class many people went along with it, praising these charlatans as if they were fighters for the working class
Now in the 12th hour they are acting shocked, pretending they had no idea what they signed up for. The United States left is painfully unserious
Except for the genocidal apartheid ethno state of Israel who gets free healthcare thanks to American tax dollars, right?

Let ‘em know sis!
Republicans have been flooding the zone with lawlessness, cruelty, & corruption.
And Democrats have a mandate to match their energy—boldly & unapologetically.
It's not enough to be the adults in the room. We have to prove that we are the FIGHTERS in the room.

Dems don't need a challenger to Jeffries. They just need to grow a spine. Multiple rounds of voting can force him to guarantee no funding for the Iran war, no funding for weapons to Israel, support for Medicare for All etc. Don't roll over for corporate Democrats yet AGAIN. See the Professor's posting below!
Over 1 million Democrats signed the petition demanding that Israel First Hakeem Jeffries step aside. His supporters continue to use the excuse that no one else has stepped up so there's no choice but to support him.
I'll tell you why that's bullshit:
It took Kevin McCarthy 15 rounds of voting to be elected Speaker in January 2023.
In order to win, McCarthy had to make significant concessions to the Republican "Freedom Caucus" in the House.
Republicans then became so disenamored with his leadership that they removed him as Speaker in Oct of that year.
It then took another 4 rounds of voting for Mike Johnson to emerge as the candidate who could get enough votes to become Speaker.
So no, there doesn't need to be a challenger to Hakeem Jeffries to extract concsessions from him or to eventually replace him.
Hakeem Jeffries is an Israel First Democrat whose last vote to continue sending weapons to fuel Israel's genocide in Gaza and ethnic cleansing in the West Bank was just 4 months ago.
The American people - not just Democrats - do not want the US to continue supporting Israel's slaughter of Palestinians.
Jeffries just placed 3 Israel First maniacs - Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Josh Shapiro and Wesley Bell - on important committee seats after holding a secret meeting with Jared Kushner.
To hold up Hakeem Jeffries as the leader who represents the Dems in the House and who sets the agenda is repugnant given the ongoing massacre of civilians in Palestine.
He's also firmly against Medicare for All.
His approval rating is lower than Donald Trump's.
Even if no ine steps up to challenge him at first, it would just take enough NO votes to force continued voting until:
1. Someone else eventually steps up to challenge him, or
2. Jeffries is forced to make significant concessions on things like a vote for Medicare for All and a promise not to whip votes against it AND an arms embargo on Israel -and he can be threatened with being replaced if he renegs.
Democratic voters don't want him. Dozens of sitting and soon-to-be seated House members refuse to commit to supporting him.
Hakeem Jeffries' job, if he is elected Speaker in one round, will be to BLOCK progressive policies and to continue to allow the US to send Israel the weapons it uses to slaughter Palestinian children on a daily basis.
Now is the time for those of us who demand a bold progressive agenda to stand up and keep the pressure on.
Those expressways everyone driving on in big cities, that big ass park in NYC, that killer lake in Georgia, were all once Black towns and neighborhoods that thrived with Black businesses, schools, clinics. They were destroyed by white ppl & white supremacist policies.
"WhY dOn't BLACk peOPle JUst stARt TheIR own CitiES AnD TOWnS?" They did, and white people destroyed them because Black people were doing better than them.
Imagine being so mediocre that you started losing in a system after segregating people from it.

Like that but also when people gag at you not being moved by their sudden shallow attention or fake admiration. It’s like clock that I never had an appetite for your validation, ever.

The UAE is helping drive the genocide in Sudan, yet Abu Dhabi is busy rolling out the red carpet for international celebrities and throwing lavish entertainment festivals while Sudanese people are being massacred.
The same UAE that fuels the RSF’s war through weapons, funding and military support is spending heavily on celebrity culture and global events to manufacture a glamorous image and bury its role in Sudan’s destruction.
Artists cannot claim ignorance or pretend their participation is harmless. Performing in Abu Dhabi while this genocide continues means lending their fame and platforms to a state using entertainment to whitewash its actions.
We’ve done this before! public pressure helped push @macklemore and @zaralarsson to cancel their UAE performances!!! we can do it again.
We need everyone involved. Share this, tag every artist on the lineup, contact their teams and make this campaign impossible to ignore. No more helping the UAE whitewash the genocide in Sudan.

@nadineelroubii you used your music and platform to raise awareness about Sudan, condemned the world’s silence, and raised funds for people whose lives have been shattered by this war.
you know what is happening to our people... so how can you turn around and perform in Abu Dhabi, the very capital of a government arming and financing the RSF militia and fuelling the genocide against your own people? What happened to everything you stood for?!!!!!

🚨HEARTBREAKING: This widow’s husband was killed by the Israeli army during this war in Gaza.
Now, she is left helpless as floodwaters engulf her tent, their clothes, and everything they had in this tiny shelter.
Reminder this is what you voted for when you voted Democrats! They're doing the same as Republicans. This is genocide on our dime!

This isn't affecting just a few families in Gaza. 94% of Gaza’s population needs shelter assistance. Meaning they're living in tents. If they're lucky.
It's in your hands now, Democratic Congress.
This Democratic Speaker of the House, Hakeem Jeffries???
I mean he represents what the Dems stand for. They're all owned by their benefactor, Israel. #Midterms2026

I’m not interested unless it includes a segment where she beats him with a weapon of her choice.
Variety reports Justin Timberlake is releasing a four-part tell-all docuseries on Apple TV.
Janet Jackson is reported to make an appearance where she discusses their performance at the Super Bowl.
