AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, is on its way to spending over $100 million this election cycle as it looks to punish candidates critical of Israel's genocidal assault on Gaza. Earlier this year a coalition of nearly two dozen progressive groups – including Jewish Voice for Peace, IfNotNow, Justice Democrats, the Democratic Socialists of America, the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights, and the Sunrise Movement – launched Reject AIPAC, an organization aimed at combatting the pro-Israel lobbying group. Mondoweiss's U.S. correspondent Michael Arria interviewed Justice Democrats spokesperson Usamah Andrabi about the coalition, AIPAC's election strategy, and two of the biggest primary fights of the summer. - - - - - Support our work Help us continue our critical, independent coverage of events in Palestine, Israel, and related U.S. politics.

www.commsolutionsmn.com- The war in Israel is front and center on the world stage, and there are a number of things that are starting to surface, that we didn't think that we would ever see again. When Hamas blindsided Israeli families and concertgoers on not only their Sabbath, but also on a huge religious holiday, it proved its cowardice and barbarism. At least everyone is condemning it. Well... not everyone. We are seeing universities engaging in professor-led protests, where hordes of rabid demonstrators shout slogans that are code language for killing the Jews. This is totally unacceptable on every level. The Democratic Socialists of America have been squarely on the side of Hamas. We've seen the pure hate coming from people like Ilhan Omar and Rashide Tlaib, but the DSA in Minnesota has been hard at work spreading discrimination. This was on full display at the protest they were involved in at Bryant Square in Minneapolis. DSA has Minnesota chapters in the Twin Cities, Duluth, Red River Valley, and they all use the same antisemitic language. It's time to choose a side. Who are you standing with? We also discuss new speaker of the House, Mike Johnson. Who is he? Will he do anything different than McCarthy? Is there hope for the future yet? Also, MN Rep Dean Phillips (CD3) is officially in the presidential race. Look out, America! Have you checked out our Spotify playlist?

TWITTER: @KenzoShibata Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ClassTimePod/ Patreon: Patreon.com/KenzoShibata Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/classtime Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/classtime/ Via Brandyn Buchanan (MADSA DSA): Today, Councilman #khalidkamau resigned as chair of Metro Atlanta #DSA’s Executive Committee. In his resignation press release, khalid left out an incredible amount of information that people deserve to know. So we decided to take a few hours and lay out the details so people can make their own decisions about our collective character, and his. I’m writing this in my own voice, but this statement has the support of the entire Executive committee. The Background When we all came together in September, the press releases were really happy to note that we were the youngest and most diverse EC in the history of the chapter. Let’s just briefly talk about what that entails: It’s an EC of six people that featured two Black men (plus khalid, so three) and an indigenous woman. People of color are a voting majority here. We’re all working people on really low income, doing a tremendous amount of work to equip our members and comrades in Atlanta to fight racism, capitalism, and imperialism. So are we gonna do that with a bottom up democracy that listens to people, learns about their struggles and then engages in the fight with them? Or will it come from a “president” or “CEO” type that goes to nice dinners, makes political promises and then demands that the membership haul ass to make good on them? Councilman khalid is resigning from the chapter because he’s not getting his way on this central question of what we are: period. We are a member organization, not a PAC. Our over one thousand members are responsible for setting the political line of our organization. We’re happy to work with anybody with good will from across the political spectrum (obvious receipts to come), but people have to know what’s going on, know who we’re signing on with and give approval. When he discovered he couldn’t do all this in his style, by hisself, he jumped out. The Endorsement Process In his resignation statement, khalid makes a number of false statements about our endorsement process, and also levels an accusation that the EC blocked endorsements. Let’s dig into those. A member of the Local Electoral working group (and person of color!) submitted a resolution for our June general meeting agenda to reorient our electoral strategy towards #ClassStruggleElections. This resolution is cosponsored by over 40 members, including nearly every influential person of color in the organization. To give you some background, we currently have a two-meeting endorsement process, where candidates are expected to give a Q&A in one meeting and then members debate and vote whether to endorse in a second meeting. Read the rest here: https://medium.com/@heybrandyn/metro-... Councilman Kamau's initial post: https://medium.com/@khalidCares/black... The catalyst for this sad tale was me. I signed on to a mission that any undergraduate Sociology major with an understanding of the pathology of white supremacist thinking would have known was impossible. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have long been criticized as a toxic environment for women and people of color. After an exodus of organizers of color from 2016–2018, local DSA chapters in cities like New York and Chicago underwent transformations worthy of the organization’s radical reputation, diversifying the complexion of their leadership, electoral organizing and other outreach. However, some local DSA chapters continued doing the same thing, expecting different results. The Metro Atlanta Democratic Socialists of America (MADSA) has been one such chapter. In 2019, I was asked to give the Opening Speech at DSA’s National Convention in Atlanta. At the time, I was one of only three elected officials in the State of Georgia that openly-identified as a Democratic Socialist. MADSA was on its third chair of color in less than one year. Two Black leaders had publicly split with the chapter, criticizing MADSA as both racist and sexist. I would like to pause here to apologize to those two women. My male privilege blinded me to the seriousness of their allegations, and I was lulled into thinking that my celebrity as an elected official would propel me over the institutional barriers that previous leaders of color had faced. I allowed myself to be convinced that I was a magical negro who could transform a troubled institution.  SHOW LESS

Labor Express Radio Interview: Marianela D'Aprile, member of the National Political Committee of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), discusses the “Bernie bump”. Both in 2016 and now again, in 2020, the DSA has seen massive increases in membership. As a result, the DSA has become the closest thing to a mass socialist party we have seen in the United States in at least 70 years. At the same time, the organization has worked to avoid the limitations that come with electoralism. Embracing a “class struggle election work” strategy that privileges movement building as much as winning elections. The DSA has also launched new partnerships at the national and local level with several unions. All these topics are discussed in the interview.

Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has mounted a massive disinformation campaign to fool the American voting public. Thousands of members are flocking to the rapidly growing organization. Many DSA members have also joined the Democratic Party, holding key positions in almost every state. Millions of voters have supported DSA candidates running as Democrats. Hundreds of DSA-supported candidates have been elected to county commissions, city councils, education boards, and state legislatures across the country. Two members, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) and Rashida Tlaib (Mich.), have penetrated Congress. DSA-driven policies — Medicare for All (socialized healthcare), the Green New Deal, National Popular Vote, $15 minimum wage, illegal alien amnesty — are rapidly becoming Democratic Party policy. All this is possible because DSA has managed to convince the U.S. mainstream media and most of the public that they are harmless European socialists who don’t want communism. They want America to be more like Sweden or Norway, not like the Soviet Union, China, or Cuba. Read the article here!
