    Thrilled that @philissa & @gracekgilson are joining @haaretzcom as integral parts of our major US expansion. Few journalists match their verve and vitality. I can’t wait to see them tell stories of Jewish life in America & how young people relate to Israel

    I am so excited to read @ashleyrgold's agenda-setting journalism in Semafor! Almost as excited to read about her casting in Industry's final season in the Hollywood Reporter

    If your version of “supporting Israel” means pretending its ministers don’t represent its government, its policies aren’t its policies and everything horrifying is an aberration — you’re not defending Israel but doing PR for a country that no longer exists
    The American Jewish establishment is defending an Israel that no longer exists

    .@ArnoRosenfeld is on the clock at @haaretzcom’s Washington correspondent! His first story: a doozy about AIPAC becoming so toxic with Democrats that candidates in Minnesota’s dead-heat Senate primary are accusing the other of being too close to the group
    Locked in dead heat, Minnesota Dems reach for AIPAC as a cudgel

    Criticizing Israel isn’t antisemitic. But Tucker Carlson’s “America First” insurgency increasingly flirts with it. Now he’s working to further normalize such views via a new third party — accompanied by Marjorie Taylor Greene, Thomas Massie and Joe Kent
