Michigan US Rep. Shri Thanedar renounces DSA membership over 'hate-filled and antisemitic' NYC rally
U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar, a Michigan Democrat, on Wednesday announced that he had renounced his membership from the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) over the group's backing of a "hate-filled and antisemitic rally" in New York City following the deadly terror attack against Israel.
"After the brutal terrorist attacks on Israel, which included the indiscriminate murder, rape, and kidnapping of innocent, men, women, and children, I can no longer associate with an organization unwilling to call out terrorism in all forms," Thanedar posted on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The DSA, a group that boasts six members of the U.S. House of Representatives, including members of "the Squad," backed a rally that took place in Times Square before demonstrators advanced to the Israeli Consulate several blocks away. The group laid the blame for the attack committed by Hamas terrorist fighters against Israeli civilians on Israel, calling the Jewish state an "apartheid regime" that has received billions of dollars in funding from the U.S.
Demonstrators at the rally burned and stomped on an Israeli flag and taunted Israel supporters with an image of a swastika.

So even members of the Democratic Socialist Association can't tolerate the anti antisemitism in the DSA.. I guess it does not bother the squad though. They are obviously OK with it.
