You would have thought that after all of the anti-Semitic activity on American college campuses since October of 2023, the Republicans would have gotten the majority of the Jewish vote. But you'd be wrong.

Harris got ~80% of the Jewish vote in 2024
Biden got ~70% of the Jewish vote in 2020
Hillary got ~75% of the Jewish vote in 2016
B.O. got ~70% of the Jewish vote in 2012
B.O. got ~80% of the Jewish vote in 2008

It has been said that the Democrats get the majority of the Jewish vote because American Jews view the Republicans as America's version of the Nazi Party. But this assumption does not stand up to the historical record. The Democrats have received the majority of the Jewish vote since before Hitler came to power in 1933; since before the National Socialist German Workers' Party was formed in 1920.
FDR got ~85% of the Jewish vote in 1932
Smith got ~70% of the Jewish vote in 1928
Davis the Democrat got ~50% & LaFollette the Socialist got ~20% of the Jewish vote in 1924
Cox the Democrat got ~20% & Debs the Socialist got ~40% of the Jewish vote in 1920
Wilson got ~55% of the Jewish vote in 1916

"House Republicans acted responsibly last week to keep the government open with the clean short-term continuing resolution," Johnson's memo said.

"Senate Democrats, who used to warn that shutdowns would hurt seniors, veterans, and working families, are now threatening to force one unless Congress repeals the Working Families Tax Cut, restores taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal aliens, and sends half a billion dollars to leftist news outlets, among other partisan spending demands."

well, well, well, Who'd a thought.............look what I found when I ask if AI is conservative or liberal:

"Perceived Political Bias in AI
General Findings
Research indicates that most popular AI models, particularly Large Language Models (LLMs), are perceived to have a left-leaning bias. This perception is shared by users across the political spectrum, including both Republicans and Democrats"

True Conservative/Republicans are about action. Liberal/Democrats are about lip service.

California Republicans are pushing back against Gavin Newsom’s illegal attempt to get around the redistricting commission to remove their seats with a two-state proposal that would give rural Californians a voice long ignored by Sacramento.
