I obviously meant Argentina 👇. I posted when I was tired.

Friends - can we make an effort to be kind to each other on this platform? When someone makes a mistake maybe don’t jump all over them.

Venezuela is where we are bombing fishing boats with no evidence. Sickening. Criminal.

Rabbi Jill Zimmerman @rabbijill.bsky.social · 1d

So we can give 20 billion to Venezuela but are laying off our government experts? They’ve cancelled federal aid to starving children. This is our money & they have no right. This is the most criminal admin in my lifetime.

Thank you. Thanks for being kind about my obvious mistake.

Rabbi Jill Zimmerman @rabbijill.bsky.social · 1d

👆I meant Argentina. Thank you to all those understood my mistake with kindness. To the others who responded with snarkiness - gimme a break! Try spreading kindness & giving people the benefit of the doubt.

I bet he won’t.

Rabbi Jill Zimmerman @rabbijill.bsky.social · 1d

This is absolutely insane & immoral. Weapons of war on our streets, tear gas thrown & parents of baby in car seat scrambling away. I literally cannot believe this is happening.

MILITARY with machine guns? With unarmed protestors? Unbearable

Trumps America.

No Nobel peace prize for him EVER.

Leah I was wondering!!!

Rabbi Jill Zimmerman @rabbijill.bsky.social · 2d

💔 May his memory be a blessing

Rabbi Jill Zimmerman @rabbijill.bsky.social · 3d

The more time I can have my hands in the dirt, planting seeds & watching butterflies & birds, the happier I am. It doesn’t erase the horrible but reminds me that “this, too” as the Buddhists say it’s soul food

This is exactly why I chose to not watch him

Rabbi Jill Zimmerman @rabbijill.bsky.social · 3d

And now let him release all the people ICE illegally detained without due process

He has PTSD from trying to take affordable health care away from us? That says it all

I think that Martin Fletcher should give a master class to talking head interviewers on how to be sensitive & not ask stupid insulting questions. Don’t trauma victims “how are you doing” [email protected]
