Most of this has been covered in Sorry, Jew boy, but we don't need your vote anymore, but it bears repeating, maybe just a little louder, this time.
Blossoming Harris-Walz lawn signs throughout my neighborhood have given me some hope, but as Elton John sings, it may just be a Candle in the Wind.
I've count 6 Harris-Walz signs and 2 Trump signs, both of which share the lawn with a We Support Israel sign. Apparently, within the noxious fog of the Fox bubble, support for both Donnie, the convicted felon, racist, mysogynist, Putin-loving, anti-democracy populist supported by the KKK and Nazis...and Israel is a thing.
It's kind of like the Friends episode, where Joey Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc) sends his friend, Chandler (Matthew Perry) to his tailor. During the course of the measurement, Chandler notices significant ball handling seemingly unrelated to the seams.
When confronted with this, Joey turns to his friend, Ross (David Schwimmer) to confirm that ball handling is indeed part of the measurement process, to which Ross says, Yes, yes it is. IN PRISON!
And that, my non-Jewish, non-Conservative, non-American friends is where you are. In prison. There may be no bars, but the bubble has you locked in like a Star Trek force field.
For you actual Trekkies out there, you know that the Federation had a Prime Directive that prohibited members of Star Fleet from interfering with the cultures of other worlds.
Our little tribe has its own prime directive and it's got nothing to do with matzoh ball soup on Friday night. Our prime directive is that THE LIFE A PREGNANT MOTHER IS SACROSANCT.
Too important or valuable to be interfered with.
It's not a choice. It's not something that you turn over to the states, which no one wanted in the first place. That was what the South said about slavery and look how that turned out.
It's not a choice. The mother's life comes first PERIOD
When you vote for this phony, fake, charlatan, whose Senate leader stole one Supreme Court nomination from sitting President Barack Obama and one from incoming President Joe Biden to lay out three corrupt judges foisted on our country by the billionaire-backed Heritage Foundation, you are voting AGAINST the rights of mothers and their families as protected by YOUR religion.
Three corrupt judges who conspired to take away women's choices and give Donnie Dump ABSOLUTE IMMUNITY.
Fox Angertainment probably didn't tell you that 15 states now have gasoline under $2.99 a gallon and they certainly didn't tell you that 20 states have TRUMP ABORTION BANS.
Women are literally bleeding out in hospital parking lots because doctors are afraid to provide life saving measures under penalty of law.
If Trump manages to ooze his way back into power, one of those women bleeding out in a hospital parking lot could be your grand-daughter, great niece or great granddaughter.
ONE IN THREE women of child-bearing age in America now lives with that lethal threat hanging over their heads. If Trump gets to the White House, that number will explode.
One in six women, not yet old enough to vote, will be raped in the next four years and, if she happens to get pregnant and live in Florida or Texas, she will be forced to carry the product of that violent crime to full term.
And she may not be allowed to cross state lines to get an abortion.
Conservatives believe in fiscal responsibility and small government. Donnie blew up our national debt more than ALL of his predecessors COMBINED and weaponized the Justice Department to go after James Comey, Andrew McCabe, Hillary Clinton and former presidential candidate, John Kerry.
You may think it's cool when Trump goes after his and your enemies, but what happens when his Proud Boys want YOUR head on a spike? You think he's going to stop them?
Since October 7, 2023, nobody could have been better friends to Israel than President Biden and Vice President Harris. It was Speaker Mike Johnson, doing his master's bidding who held up funding for Israel.
And try to keep in mind that Democrats weren't moved to make it illegal for non-citizens to vote because IT ALREADY IS ILLEGAL FOR NON-CITIZENS TO VOTE, just as murder, rape and arson are already illegal.
Why the dog and pony show?
Vice President Kamala Harris CHOSE to marry a Jew. Ivanka Trump married a queer little man and embraced Judaism to keep her lecherous father at bay.
When Donnie moved our embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, he sent ANTI-SEMITIC televangelist Robert Jeffress to consecrate the embassy. If you think he did that for Jews, you're not as smart as you think you are.
If you think that Donnie has nothing to do with Project 2025, a 920-page, detailed plan to dismantle democracy, funded by the billionaires who put three anti-abortion, anti-rule-of-law judges on SCOTUS, then you're delusional.
Trump = Project 2025 = Trump
Your grandchildren will grow up without health care, Social Security, a Department of Education, a Food & Drug Administration, a fair judicial system and a complete lack of regulation protecting their very lives.
Only children attending PRIVATE SCHOOLS will be exempt from military service and all of this has been put together with help from two dozen of Donnie's former staffers.
Pro-life? Not so much.
As we enter the period leading up to Yom Kippur, our Day of Atonement, we are moved to confront our transgressions. While I believe in the legacy of the blood flowing though my veins, I'm one of about a third of Jews who doesn't believe in any single deity (God), so my transgressions, which are many, are between me and my fellow man.
As parents, grandparents and great-grandparents we should all consider what transgressions we might be committing against future generations by electing a man supported by Nazis and dedicated to nothing more than destroying democracy and wreaking vengeance on half of America.
Of course, history, even if it were available to us, may not repeat itself. From what I hear, that Holocaust thing is just a myth.
I’m forwarding this piece! Your best yet.
