I would like to descant on the grave world geopolitical situation we are in—the gravest since before WWII—but I won’t do so now for reasons of my own.
I will write that this is a moment for most Jews and other proud “progressives” to swallow a dose of political reality before it is too late. Who does Steve Bannon want as Chair of the Democratic National Committee? Keith Ellison, of course.
I also won't elaborate why because the reasons are too embarrassing for me to innumerate. They also should be too obvious for anybody sensible on the left.
If you want to rebuild a progressive coalition against everything Bannon represents, you need to prevent his radical left doppelganger, Ellison, from being elevated to DNC Chair by well-meaning and patronizing white liberals who have no idea what they are doing.
