Everything Dahlia writes is excellent, but often depressing. I found this piece today strangely comforting (but itโ€™s been an awful news day so perhaps any crumb of original positive thinking will do)

The last Pope Leo launched Catholic social teaching in the late 19th century. This one may have to revive it โ€” in a world just as unequal. My take. unherd.com/newsroom/pope-โ€ฆ

Israel has grown politically bright red while American Jews remain proudly deep blue. Two-thirds of Israelis questioned told pollsters they preferred Donald Trump over Kamala Harris; the exact opposite held true among American Jews. trib.al/GPAU4Vz

๐Ÿšจ The former Head of Mossad, the former Head of the Shin Bet and the former Deputy Chief of the IDF sent a letter to President Trump telling him NOT to listen to Netanyahu about the war in Gaza.

Americans support unions over business by margins not seen in 60 years. Per Axios. As my friend Damon Silvers of the AFL-CIO often says: The basic agenda of the labor movement is the most popular political program today. Someone just needs to seize it. axios.com/2025/05/22/ameโ€ฆ

Another one of the Right's follies: convincing themselves "unions aren't popular anymore." Absolute nonsense. Unions get stratospheric approval ratings these days. Studies show tens of millions Americans are underrepresented: They want collective bargaining but don't have it.

Thinking about all the right wingers who pretend to be pro-Israel who told me they trusted Trump to back Netanyahu. Is ending the war and blocking attacks on Iran bad now or only when a Democrat does it?

Not surprising that the guy who said there's "no such thing as a Palestinian" is trying to destroy the possibility of a Palestinian state. Huckabee wants to torch longstanding US policy and - most importantly - the clearest path to peace.

It's disqualifying for me because Israel isn't spread across the globe, but Jews are. "Globalize the intifada" is a permission structure for hate crimes.
