HABIBI ABDUL: How does Abdul El-Sayed respond when an Arab American leader and supporter blasts "Democratic Zionists" and calls for a "free, free Palestine from the river to the sea," "free from Zionists," who believe in a state of Israel for Jewish people?
Three days after Abdul El-Sayed won a U.S. Senate seat, I walked into a Marriott ballroom last Friday night in Chantilly, Va., for one of his first public appearances. I didn't know what would unfold.
I soon encountered the "red-green" alliance that brought El-Sayed to office and witnessed their anti-Israel rhetoric, their goals and their bullying tactics, dressed up in gowns and evening wear.

Soon after El-Sayed arrived in a luxury SUV that pulled up to the side security dock, Issam Andoni, the chairman of the Arab America Foundation, didn't speak in riddles when he took the stage to introduce El-Sayed to about 500 Arab Americans in the room and two special non-Arabs in the front row: pro-communist, pro-China CodePink co-founder Medea Benjamin and her husband, Tighe Barry.
Andoni bragged "Habibi Abdul" had overcome opposition from "Democratic Zionists" and how he had "destroyed AIPAC twice," referencing the pro-Israel lobbying group.
A "Zionist" is anyone who believes in the right of Israel to exist as a Jewish state.
He said a "movement" had formed behind El-Sayed, and that it was "going to grow and grow and grow" and "connect with other movements."
And then, invoking the sumud — or steadfastness — "of our people in Gaza, West Bank and Lebanon," he said: "I'm sure we'll see a free Palestine from the river to the sea."
"A free Palestine, free Palestine from the river to the sea. Free from occupation. Free from Zionists. And free from corruption. And free from apartheid."
El-Sayed listened, his hands clasped in front of him, smiling quietly.
Dr. @yudapearl, I thought of you as I filmed this speech. It confirms your thesis that the word "Zionist" has become the Trojan horse for anti-semitism and the destruction of the state of Israel through the phenomenon of "Zionophobia," as you coined it.
@DavidSuissaJJ @JoshKraushaar @BillAckman @OrliPeter, friends: please note how the rhetoric to make Palestine "free of Zionism" "from the river to the sea," a land that covers modern day Israel, adds up to the destruction of the state of Israel as a Jewish state.
My video work is a little wobbly at moments because I got media credentials to cover the event but El-Sayed's backers were constantly harassing me during El-Sayed's speech as I filmed the event, corralling me away from the stage, the balding man in front me, Omar Kurdi, standing in front of me to block my view, a woman scolding me to "go to the back" as I was on bended knee, filming. They didn't harass any other reporters.
In this thread I'll explain, plainly, what the "red-green" alliance is, what activists mean when they say "free from Zionists" and "from the river to the sea" and how to translate messaging about remarks El-Sayed later said about "rules-based" systems, mirroring Chinese propaganda, so you can understand and protect yourself against cognitive warfare.

Stephen Miller is intellectually lethal. His brilliance is unmatched, and his opponents know it.

Dear @WhiteHouse, my name is Rodney Smith Jr., founder of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service in Huntsville, Alabama. Through our 50 Yard Challenge, over 6,000 kids across the country have signed up to mow free lawns for the elderly, disabled, veterans, active-duty military, first responders, and single parents. With America celebrating its 250th birthday this year and me also being born on July 4th, I wanted to humbly ask if a few kids from our program and myself could travel to Washington, D.C. to help mow the White House lawn for this historic celebration.
More than anything, I want these kids to see how a simple act of service something as ordinary as mowing a lawn for someone in need can lead to extraordinary places. What better lesson in community service than showing them that helping others can take them all the way to our nation’s capital? I’d also love to bring my American flag-themed mower in hopes that the President might sign it, so I can later auction it off and donate 100% of the proceeds to a nonprofit supporting veterans. It would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to highlight the importance of service, patriotism, and the impact young people can have when they choose to make a difference. 🇺🇸

It’s so frustrating to have a big win in the Supreme Court and still have to litigate in order to get schools to comply.
🚨A New Jersey school district has a secret gender transition policy that requires staff to hide kids' "social transitions" from parents.
They have 20 days to rescind it or face a federal lawsuit. The SCOTUS ruling in Mirabelli made clear that policies like this are unconstitutional.
