Today, I became the first Jewish-American political appointee to resign from the Biden-Harris administration over its policies in Gaza. Here is my resignation letter:
“I resigned on Wednesday, 15 May – the 76th anniversary of the Nakba… I could no longer serve at the pleasure of a president who refuses to stop another catastrophe”

I am so sad and disappointed. @DNC had a chance to live up to our party values and broaden the tent. They chose instead to silence Palestinian-American voices and exclude them from the convention stage. @VP, I want you to win in November. You must do better.
I worked to elect Kamala Harris in 2019. To win the election, she must break with Biden on Israel policy — not just because it is the right thing to do, but it is both popular and politically savvy. I explain why in @guardian today —

No one who defended Israel’s conduct the last two years, or did not use all of the power they had to try and stop this, should ever hold elected or higher office in the United States ever again.
BREAKING: Today, all 12 public resignees from the Biden Administration issued a joint statement about the catastrophic failure in Gaza.

That was me, thanks for the shoutout! And seriously Eyal? “Beastly scream” is a pretty antisemitic way to describe a shofar blast. Sounds like you need to spend more time in shul.

These people are truly the worst.
Shameful fucking silence from the Dems right now given that most Americans, including their base, don’t want the US under Trump to go to war with Iran and have been horrified at almost 2 years of footage of murder in Gaza. We won’t accept this and we won’t forget in 26 and 28.
