Just as our fate hangs in the balance before Yom Kippur, our democracy faces a similar inflection point before the midterms. There's more we can and must do to defeat MAGA extremism and defend democracy. Jewish voters will deliver for Democrats in 2022. https://t.co/hnOJHPZzi3

Not only Nablus. This is the northern entrance to Ramallah now. Settlers blocked the road and hurled stones at Palestinians vehicles leaving Ramallah, on the eve of Yom Kippur. https://t.co/9c7ZbCKdEx

Let’s break this down, shall we? 1. The site is also known as the Tomb of the Patriarchs and is one of the most sacred sites in Judaism. 2. Jews are entitled to be there per bilateral agreements. 3. This isn’t a “dance party” – it is a joyous prayer sung ahead of Yom Kippur. https://t.co/XuJJsZ3Pvl
