Trump just announced he will zero out aid to Israel. Establishment Democrats spent two years telling us this is too radical. Progressives won the debate. Zero aid to Israel and no more military sales.

Trump is not changing his position out of principle... He is recognizing that criticism of Israel’s war in Gaza is no longer politically easy to dismiss, especially as more candidates and electeds openly challenge unconditional U.S. support for Israel.
President Trump on U.S. aid to Israel: "We were giving them $4 billion. We are. But it gets cut off at the end of the year. Why? Because they don't need it. "Why should we suffer the slings from lunatics like El-Sayed when they don't need it? It's a bad talking point."

From Secretary Mullin to President Trump to RFK Jr., anti-Muslim rhetoric is coming from the highest levels of this administration. With the midterms just days away, targeting Muslims is not happening in a vacuum. It is an election strategy being used for political gain...
Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. falsely claimed that modern Arab Muslims don’t produce science and literature as they once did or win prestigious prizes, sparking backlash. Experts in Arab studies blasted the remarks as steeped in ignorance. wapo.st/4ic3wWA

For months, we've warned that anti-Muslim hate is reaching unprecedented levels, surpassing even post-9/11 highs. It's encouraging to see major news outlets finally paying attention and covering the reality of what our community is facing.
President Trump called Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed a “jihadist” during a campaign rally in Michigan, urging his supporters to fight El-Sayed, who may be the first Muslim senator, in the same way Americans battled terrorists on 9/11. wapo.st/3W7G97P

Why hasn't the @ADL's @JGreenblattADL condemned this? The ADL was one of the sponsors of this summit that took place in LA.
Audience members laughed and cheered on Mosab Hassan Youssef as he called on Muslims to “get the fuck out of the United States” and return to the “shitholes” where they came from, during a talk at the Jewish American Summit in Los Angeles on Sunday.

MPAC spoke with @yasmineelsabawi at @MiddleEastEye on our newly launched report highlighting deep funding disparities in DHS safety grants for faith communities. All religious institutions facing threats deserve equal protection and support. Read the full piece below ⬇️

Following Abdul El-Sayed’s primary victory in Michigan, Republican members of Congress have responded with anti-Muslim rhetoric targeting American Muslims. We thank @SenBillCassidy for condemning this rhetoric & affirming that American Muslims are an integral part of our country.

Representative Andy Ogles, whose tenure was marked by vitriolic rhetoric and the formation of the Sharia Free America Caucus, was defeated in his primary.

While these leaders are stepping down, the rhetoric and policies they promoted persist. Sustaining a healthy, inclusive democracy requires our continuous engagement to ensure bigoted rhetoric never finds safe harbor in the halls of power.

Zero guest appearances. Zero backup. Pure silence from the rest of the dais. 😪

Notice the empty seats? That’s what taking a stand looks like. @SenTedCruz MPAC commends the Senate Democrats who chose not to lend legitimacy to a hearing designed to target and demonize American Muslims. True leadership means refusing to participate in fear-mongering.
