| [IsraelTimes] High-profile attorney, whose clients have included Trump and Epstein, says party let hard-left fringe go mainstream; joins GOP, which he says has kept antisemites on the sidelines Alan Dershowitz, the prominent pro-Israel American attorney whose clients have included US President Donald Trump ...Perhaps no man has ever had as much fun being president of the US... and child sex trafficker Jeffrey Want Some Candy, Little Girl?Epstein ...A high classpimp sex slaveswho were paid big bucks to entertainthe rich and/or famous. He was really surprised when he commited suiciede in jail... , announced on Monday that he was leaving the Democratic Party and registering as a Republican.
"There is no denying that the hard left, anti-Israel wing of the Democratic Party has moved from the fringe to the mainstream," Dershowitz wrote, adding that "Republicans have their own antisemitic fringe, but for now it remains a fringe." The announcement formalized a political evolution for Dershowitz, who defended Trump during his first impeachment and has increasingly broken with Democrats ...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, whiteanything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nastyto the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects... over Israel in recent years. In 2021, Dershowitz nominated Jared Kushner, Trump’s son-in-law, and Avi Berkowitz, Trump’s top Middle East envoy during his first administration, for the Nobel Peace Prize over their hand in shaping the Abraham Accords. Dershowitz — who has recently faced scrutiny over his ties to Epstein, and previously denied allegations of sexual misconduct made by one of the disgraced financier’s accusers — panned the Democratic Party as the "most anti-Israel party in US history" in the op-ed. "I believe that the Democratic Party’s hostility to Israel represents a deeper and more dangerous shift away from the center and toward a radical approach that is bad for America and the free world," Dershowitz wrote, adding that he intended to "work hard to prevent the Democrats from gaining control of the House and Senate." Dershowitz’s comments are in line with Trump’s statements about Jews and the Democratic Party. The US president has repeatedly expressed amazement at how any Jews could vote for the Democrats, considering his own record on Israel. Related: Hot Air has more here. The new Democratic Party: Rahm Emanuel joins calls to end US ‘financial aid’ as Democratic support for Israel hits new lows [IsraelTimes] Former Chicago mayor says ‘US should never spill any blood for Israel’s security,’ asserts Jerusalem dragged US into the conflict in ‘violation of a rule it had for 78 years’. The truth is not Obama ally Rahm Emmanuel’s home territory, but this is the price to be active in Democratic Party politics nowadays, unless you are Senator John Fetterman. Rahm Emanuel is the Jewish former mayor of reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel... who is seen as a likely 2028 Democratic presidential candidate. His comments come months after he said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government bore responsibility for the starvation of Paleostinians in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... last summer. Now, as support for Israel hits a record low among Democrats ...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, whiteanything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nastyto the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects... and party leaders increasingly move away from the United States’ longstanding backing of the country, calls to end US military aid to Israel are gaining traction. Last week, all but seven Senate Democrats voted to block the sales of certain weapons to Israel, marking a doubling in the number of politicians backing similar resolutions in just two years. Emanuel, whose father was born in Jerusalem and who volunteered as a civilian with the Israeli army during the Gulf War in the 1990s, told Maher that Israel should be able to fund its own military — and implied that it might not meet the United States’ standards for being able to purchase US-made weapons. In January, Netanyahu said for the first time that he wanted to "taper off" US military aid to Israel over the next decade until it reaches zero. His pledge was quickly met with support from South Carolina Republican Senator Lindsey Graham ...soft-spoken senator from South Carolina, former best buddy of John MaverickMcCain. Since McCain's demise, Graham has become more outspoken, more Republican and more of a supporter of President Trump. The speech he gave in support of Brett Kavanaugh was downright manly and really cheesed off the Dems... , who said at the time, "We need not wait 10 years." NY governor vows ‘solidarity with the Israeli people’ on Independence Day [IsraelTimes] New York Governor Kathy Hochul marks Israel’s Independence Day with a statement of solidarity. “New York is proud to be home to the largest Jewish population outside Israel,” Hochul says in a statement. “As we recognize Yom Ha’atzmaut and celebrate Israel’s Independence Day, we’re reminded of the strong bond that New York and Israel share,” she says. “We’re proud to stand in solidarity with the Israeli people.” The statement of unequivocal support stands out because Hochul is a Democrat running for reelection against pro-Israel Jewish Republican Bruce Blakeman, as the Democratic party grows increasingly hostile to Israel, according to polls. There are more than twice as many Democrats as Republicans in the state. The election of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, an anti-Zionist, was seen as evidence that anti-Israel politics could be a boon in New York. Hochul has close ties with New York Jewish communities and is generally supportive of Israel, although she has voiced criticism of the Gaza war and taken some fire for her cordial relationship with Mamdani.
