If you need a friend, better to have a truthful one

The year was 2008 and for many Americans an economic meltdown, the War in Iraq, and the waning failing days of the Bush Administration had spawned a feeling that change was needed. But for me, at the time a...

Jewish Democrats opposed bigotry by voting for corporate donors and bigotry

During the 115th Congress that concludes next month progressive and liberal activists claimed that the GOP was infested with bigots and religious fanatics that will disenfranchise minorities, amplify the voices of hate, empower the rich, and threaten the civil...

Progressive/Liberal Zionism is bleeding out. #WalkAway before you’re ejected.

If you’re gonna boycott, don’t change the definition

Let it go – Ocasio-Cortez is the future, not you

Jewish Democrats sympathetic to Israel are tone deaf as to how they have lost control of the party's core voters by treasuring influence over integrity. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez may be wrong on the issues, but at least she believes in...
