    “trump says” “vance says” “thiel says” “vought says”

    Treating the latest burble of lies from the pedo con-artist coalition regime as a headline is lazy ragebait, not news

    This is what is really dangerous about the right-wing right now. The savvier fascists have figured out that support for Israel is a bipartisan loser, so they’re staking an anti-Israel position, and some of them (Tucker Carlson, for example) are starting to integrate their antisemitic dog whistles into it.

    The left-wing should counter with any anti-zionist, anti-colonial position that explicitly rejects antisemitism, but unfortunately, the defacto left-wing party is the Democrats, who have essentially staked out the same pro-Israel middle east policy as the neocons. Right now, Trump’s support for Israel is keeping the right pro-Israel for now, but when he’s gone (and his health makes that appear imminent), the right may outflank the Democrats on Israel, leaving us to choose between antisemitism and genocide. I would guess that’s what Vance is doing here.
