I think we should be clear about what Mike Johnson *actually* did here. He gave Ukraine aid, which passed overwhelmingly 311-112, a vote. Some Republicans want to remove Mike Johnson because he didn’t block something that had huge bipartisan support. thedailybeast.com/mike-johnson-c…

@ariehkovler Ah, the usual. A couple of years ago, some doofus drove in through Jaffa gate with a goat in his car. Needless to say, he didn't get far. 🤷♀️
@ariehkovler They should take some tips from Detroit Red Wings fans who sneak octopi into the stadium.
Nothing can go wrong with this idea.
@jwhandley17 The portion size bit is also really not saying what this person thinks it’s saying
Tis a good piece. Am sceptical. Whatever private Labour ambitions now, reality will be tough and iterative — see EU gambit on youth mobility, and Labour response. The convo post-election doesn’t become as instantly easier as many suppose, IMO.
Thoughtful piece by @martinkettle. But I remain of the view that @UKLabour and @Keir_Starmer Govt will be much more ambitious towards the EU, including possibly on stuff like a CU, in its first term than consensus suggests. Thread 1/ theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
@ariehkovler @shdeen I don't think it's even used to explicitly refer to discrimination per se.
BUT many observant Jews celebrate Passover with Seders the first two nights! I will die on this (Capitol) Hill that it won't be a good look to call members back on Night 2 of Passover.
Teeing up a foreign aid bill over the weekend also allows those who observe Passover to do so on Monday & then return Tuesday. Senate was scheduled to be on recess next week.
I'm in Perugia for the International Journalism Festival #ijf24 Keen to meet fellow open source investigators, fact-checkers, disinformation reporters and colleagues I know but have never met. Send me a DM and let's have beer/coffee!
@ariehkovler Are "North-African" Sephardic Jews treated differently in Israel than "North-European" Sephardic Jews? The "Portuguese" Jews in London (i.e David Ricardo), Hamburg (Diego Teixeira) and Amsterdam (Francisco Lopes Suasso) were rich, influential and Western.
If you have just heard the word Ashkenormativity for the first time today, and you’re thinking “is this actually a thing?” Let me tell you: it is a thing! But not in the shady Elders of Zion way, but in an internal in-community self-awareness way. Read this 🧵.
OK, so let's talk about this. The term "Ashkenormativity" is used *internally* in Jewish communal discourse to refer to discrimination against non-Ashkenazi Jews — like north African and Yemenite Jews.
@ariehkovler I’m not sure it’s a lack of clarity on the part of the author. Much more part of a broader effort to pack Jews into a North American construct of “white supremacy” that obliterates much of what is distinct abt Jewish communities and the nature of discrimination agst them.
@ariehkovler I am from Banks’ district. Whatever he says, rest assured he has no clue what he’s saying & is reciting some talking points someone gave him that he doesn’t understand.
@ariehkovler This is really interesting. Here in Montreal, there's a significant Sephardi community, along with Jewish people whose families immigrated from Iraq thirty or forty years ago. And, of course, a huge Ashkenazi community, including a sizable (although shrinking) Survivor population
@ariehkovler You could argue that there has also been Mizrachification of Ashkenazi practises particularly in culinary matters
I think there is a lot to this. Saw it in Crimea in 2014 - far right European "referendum observers" drinking themselves paralytic in the Hotel Moskva bar in Simferopol and slapping each other on the back about Putin doing something they would love to but never could.
It's simple. They love bullies. They want to be one or at least live vicariously through one.
