Of all of the weird political developments that are taking place, this might be the weirdest one. www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Today marks 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. It’s a document that speaks in profound language about equality and about the rights to freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, yet we have failed to live up to this promise in many ways.

Just like we #SaidNoToSmo when he came to DC, we’re now organizing a (non)welcome for Ben-Gvir in NYC. If you’re around, come on out!

Today and every day.

Consideration of the toxic NDAA with its embedded US-Israel defense coproduction AND the Save America Act blocked in the House. www.axios.com/2026/06/30/h...

The House is preparing to vote on the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which locks in permanent military entanglement with Israel outside of congressional oversight. Tell your Rep. to vote NO on the NDAA: www.newjewishnarrative.org/ndaa

Even a broken court is right every once in a while.

My new op-ed: Three Card Bibi

Happy birthday Senator Elizabeth Warren! Thank you for your leadership and your vision. #WhatCouldHaveBeen

The last person born into slavery in the United States died in 1972, a few months before I was born. Most (white) Americans treat slavery as if it is ancient history. That’s not history, that’s memory. And it still impacts America every day.

Democrats should make 2 key points. 1) The illegal war in Iran has been a blunder & we are worse off than before it started. 2) There’s no good way out of a bad war. We should reject the talking points of those who cheered it on & want to drag us back into it. When you're in a hole, stop digging.

So Donald Trump has demanded that Israel and Hezbollah cease the hostilities in Lebanon. Yet Ben Gvir just said "all of Lebanon should burn". He (Ben Gvir) is planning on coming to the US on July 7. Is the administration going to let him in to the country? We shall see.

The deaths of both Israelis and Lebanese are tragic. Ben Gvir's hideous response only reinforces the cycle of violence. This is not leadership, it is the continuation of a failed approach that has brought nothing but pain and loss to Israel and Lebanon. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Happy Juneteenth from NJN! Juneteenth commemorates the end of slavery in the US, when news of the Emancipation Proclamation reached Texas on June 19th, 1865. Juneteenth is a second Independence Day, a more credible claim to the United States' purported values of democracy and equality.

Hi friends, I hope you will join us in person in DC or virtually if you can't be here. And I also hope that you will consider a sponsorship gift in support of our amazing honorees Heather Booth and Senator Chris Van Hollen.

This is absolutely nuts. I am proud to say that I have never been invited to an event to learn how to "Build-A-Cult" nor do the conferences I attend include a dating app. www.wired.com/story/leak-e...

You all know my deep love and admiration for Congressman John Lewis. I hope you will join us for this day of action in honor of his memory.

The refusal to include arab parties in the coalition is foolish, racist, and political malpractice. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Susskind said that efforts to talk to Congress and raise public awareness of the new strategy are ongoing. “There’s still a step where Congress has oversight and accountability and a role here, before that’s given away and dumped into the depths of the Pentagon". jewishcurrents.org/the-end-of-a...

Good. We don't want him here. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Sometimes you need broad statements of values, and sometimes you need to be in the weeds of policy. I'm glad to say that @newjewishnarrative.bsky.social does both.

"If Netanyahu opts to go at it alone despite Trump's explicit wishes, Israel and the U.S. may find themselves at a point where Trump determines that rhetorical pressure must give way to further punitive action. www.haaretz.com/us-news/2026...

Netanyahu is a failure.

"The Israeli government is building settlements at a pace we have never seen before, with the explicit goal of making Israel's control of the West Bank permanent," said New Jewish Narrative CEO Hadar Susskind. www.haaretz.com/us-news/2026...

I'm not a Knicks fan, but I am a Libby Lenkinski fan, and this is a smart piece. www.haaretz.com/opinion/2026...

Wow, I posted this yesterday and right after that it became clear that Trump has in fact put Bibi in the corner....

NJN's Hadar Susskind on the need for lawmakers to put real, meaningful pressure on the Israeli government. Read more in the New York Times: www.nytimes.com/2026/06/05/opinion/us-israel-palestinians.html

Nice job Knick fans!

At least one dead this morning in an attack in Kochav Yair. There is never any excuse for acts of terrorism like this. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/world/middleeast/israel-west-bank-shooting.html

Thanks to the @nytimes.com for publishing my letter to the editor in response to the op-ed from @vanhollen.senate.gov. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/05/o...

Today marks 59 years since the start of the 6 Day War, and with it, 59 years of occupation. (1/5)
