Tbf he’s Presbyterian, the same church as Mr Rogers, and by this atheist’s view, the only genuinely honest Christian sect as a whole. They focus heavily on Christ’s teaching on community, believe in the charitable service of others as the devine will of god, and they don’t prostilitize or require tithes. That’s not to say bad people can’t be apart of any faith, but as he’s a minister of that church (like Mr Rogers) I’m inclined to think he’s honest about those core beliefs and not just riding the good name of the church like other politicians have.

Ultimately none of that really matters. He’s on record more progressive than Crockett, and unlike her, did not take AIPAC money. That should be a deal breaker for any voter I don’t care what party, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or religion.

Was omega bummed to see her on AIPAC Tracker too

All I can find is that her parents and grandmother were Republicans. Her Palestinian father coming to America after the 1948 Israel-Palestine war. Lot of refugees gravitate to whichever party was in power when they immigrated here.

Can’t find anything about her being a Republican prior to this, just a reporter.

I did see the town hall she did with other candidates holding yes/nope signs and she confidently signalled all the right answers that wild align with Progressives/DSA.

That is a bummer though if she’s resisted DSA assocation.

But yeah I get being cautious about “new progressives” that are turncoats like Gabbard and Fetterman. Shit is pure evil.
