An open heart requires open eyes. Support for any country should not mean blindness about its faults. washingtonpost.com/outlook/i…

It absolutely should be. The lack of compassion among American lawmakers is at the core of some of our biggest problems.

This is so wrong. So terribly, terribly wrong.
Standing behind an elderly woman at @cvspharmacy and she’s buying insulin. $1200. She’s visibly upset, and I’m trying not to cry also. Pharmacist says “well at least your insurance paid for over half bc the cash price is over $3000” HOW HAVE WE LET THEM CONVINCE US THIS IS OKAY?

To know the details of what’s occurred in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict since the events in #SaveSheikhJarrah, this is a good overview. Nothing to do with the larger historical or moral dynamics - just what has actually happened over the last few days. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

That’s not something that Biden can just jump on the phone and do. But he can exert a lot of influence on a phone call, for sure.

Biden should intervene and intervene strongly. Every hour this goes on is an obscenity and a threat to both peoples.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas says he spoke with Biden today, and says he urged Biden to intervene in Israeli attacks, per a statement.
(The White House hasn't yet confirmed the call took place.)

Every aspect of our civilization needs repair, and each of us needs to do whatever is in front of us to help make it happen.
