    So don’t give up on Congress reining in the most un-normal parts of Trump’s foreign policy. Major new bill last week from me, setting up $1B fund to break counties free from Russian oil and gas.

    I dunno about this one, JM. “Support for Netanyahu” isn’t the same as “support for Israel”. The politics of this one (in U.S. and Israel) is probably too complicated to generalize.

    Regardless of who Dems nominate, the last 2 months have shown how much the plates have shifted in party, on policy and process. Unwavering support for Israel and fundraising from big donors, for example, used to be uncontroversial at the top rank of Dem primaries. No more.
