Democratic Rep. Cuts Ties with Democratic Socialists of America Following Antisemitic Rally Controversy
Outspoken Democratic congressman, Shri Thanedar, shocked political ranks this week by denouncing his ties with the Democratic Socialists of America. This move, after the tasteless display of antisemitic sentiment at an NYC-DSA endorsed rally, signifies a refreshing change. The cowering incapability to condemn the abhorrent Hamas terrorism has seen stalwarts like Thanedar stand full square with Israel’s right to self-defense. Unlike his contemporaries who dawdle in the shadows of bias, this loud dismissal bodes well for principled politics amid tumultuous times.
