Fantastic piece. The people in my very liberal corner of the world have spent the last twenty years attacking American democracy at every turn, deriding the very idea of American values as naive or even corrupt. It's illuminating to understand the link between that fashionable nihilism and the antisemitism I'm seeing in my peers now.

You aren't in a liberal corner of the world. I'm a liberal. Those people whom have misappropriated the word liberal are anything but liberal. They flatter themselves with the liberal moniker. They're leftists and usually at the root of the problem.
Right before October 7, Biden paid $6 billion to the Iranians as part of his hostage deal. What happened to that money? Were Biden and Blinken able to get it back?
Biden's hostage payment is still parked in an account in partnership with the same people that harbor the Hamas terrorist leadership. You know, the ones that took Israeli hostages. That's great.
Yeah, it is politically convenient to keep the hostage money parked for the time being. Care to take odds on whether the $6 billion will be quietly released once all of this is out of the news cycle?

No, they didn't get it back.
