This week we learned that in July of this year United States Ambassador to Israel, Mike Huckabee held a warm private meeting with Jonathan Pollard inside the American embassy in Jerusalem.
For those who don’t know Jonathan Pollard is the spy who spent thirty years in federal prison for stealing America’s most classified secrets and handing them to Israel. Pollard was convicted of espionage for passing massive volumes of classified material to Israel. He served ~30 years (1987–2015), was paroled in 2015, and moved to Israel in 2020. The damage was severe; a 1987 declassified CIA assessment called it one of the most harmful cases involving an “ally.”
So what was his justification for this behavior? He claimed it was a lifetime of “antisemitic treatment.” As always, they cry out in pain as they steal your classified intel for their ethnic homeland.
It’s worth noting that after his release, Trump donor Miriam Adelson personally flew Pollard to Israel on her private jet. This is the same Adelson family that bankrolls Republican campaigns and very clearly dictates that primary policy agendas of the Republican party. Netanyahu greeted them on the tarmac where Pollard kissed the ground upon landing. Pollard then said, “We are ecstatic to be home at last after 35 years.” Pollard has also declared his loyalty to “the land of Israel and the people of Israel, without exception.”
They all think this way, Pollard is just honest enough to say the quiet part out loud.
Our ambassador who was supposed to represent you and me, shook his hand on foreign soil while keeping the meeting off his official schedule. The White House was blindsided. The CIA station chief was alarmed. Even Trump’s press secretary admitted they had no idea.
If this were Russia, we would be at DEFCON 1 right now. If this were China, we would have congressional hearings for a year. But because it is Israel, we are supposed to nod along and say it is complicated. But we all know it’s not complicated. Israel is not an ally. It is a landlord, and the rent is due in American blood and treasure.
Thankfully the American people are waking up. The Pew Research numbers from March 2025 prove it. Half of Republicans under fifty now view Israel unfavorably, up from thirty five percent in 2022. That is a fifteen point swing in three years among the most historically pro Israel cohort in America. Republicans over fifty still support at about seventy seven percent approval, but my generation, the ones who fought the wars and pay the taxes and read more than fundraising mailers, we are done with this nonsense. Done.
This revolt is coming from both directions at once. The populist left and the nationalist right are arriving at the same destination through different roads, and that is what terrifies the establishment.
The Bernie Bro progressives and the anti war remnant that never forgave Hillary Clinton, were horrified by Gaza. They saw children in rubble, journalists shot in cold blood, churches bombed, and they felt righteous fury. For them, this is about empire and colonialism and the military industrial complex feeding bodies into a machine that grinds them into stock dividends. On this core point, that bombing kids is morally wrong and we should not pay for it, we agree.
But on the Christian Nationalist right, the break goes deeper. It’s not just political. It is theological. For a century we have been fed a lie from pulpits that should have known better. They told us God’s covenant with ethnic Israel was eternal and unconditional. That 1948 was prophetic fulfillment. That blessing the modern state of Israel was the same as blessing Abraham. That if we did not, we would be cursed.
Turns out, it was all nonsense. Nineteen hundred years of Christian orthodoxy, but more importantly God’s Word, says so.
In the year 70 AD, the Roman legions under Titus burned Jerusalem to the ground. Most Christians no nothing about this topic, but it’s one of the most important moments in all of human history second only to the birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Temple, the heart of the old covenant, was destroyed so thoroughly that the gold melted into the cracks between the stones. The priests were slaughtered. The genealogies that proved tribal lineage were erased forever. Hebrews 8:13 is explicit: “By calling this covenant ‘new,’ he has made the first one obsolete; and what is obsolete and outdated will soon disappear.” The temple disappeared in fire and blood because the reality it pointed to had already arrived: Jesus Christ.
For nineteen centuries, every Christian knew this. Augustine taught it. Calvin preached it. Your great-grandfather’s pastor believed it. The promises to Abraham were fulfilled in Christ and extended to all who are in Christ, Jew and Gentile alike. Not by DNA. Not by geography. By faith alone. Galatians 3:29 could not be clearer: “If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.”
The church fathers did not pray for a rebuilt Temple. They celebrated its destruction as God’s judgment and Christ’s vindication. Because Christ is the land. Christ is the temple. Christ is the promise. Everything else is sand.
Then came the twentieth century. Dispensationalism, a heresy cooked up by John Nelson Darby in the 1830s, which was mainstreamed by Scofield Bibles and Left Behind novels abandoned nineteen centuries of doctrine to preach a new gospel. We’re supposed to believe that God pressed pause on the church, restarted the clock for ethnic Israel, and commands us to fund a secular, Christ-denying state or face hell. Never mind that it aborts babies and hosts pride parades. Never mind that its leaders literally spit on the cross. We were told to pledge allegiance to a foreign flag or be cursed.
We were deceived, but that thankfully that deception is ending.
Both the populist left and nationalist right are discovering the same enemy through different lenses. Both see an economic system that farms working class people for debt while global elites get rich on our backs. The left wants a twenty five dollar minimum wage. We want tariffs that bring the factories home. Different mechanisms, same fire: the current order serves capital and foreign interest, not our people. We can argue about solutions after we agree on the enemy.
Both of us also despise the forever wars. The left marched against Iraq. We fought it and came back broken. Both were lied to by the same neocons who now want war with Iran, using Israel as the tripwire. Both of us want the war machine’s snout pulled from the trough. We want our troops home and the foreign wars ended.
Both of us have felt the boot of censorship. When the left spoke up about Gaza, they got shadowbanned. When we questioned Christian Zionism, we got deplatformed. Same algorithm, same masters. The ADL smears them as antisemites and us as extremists. We both want our voices back. We both want to name who is really running the show.
Both of us hate the corporate oligarchy. The left hates Amazon and Starbucks for union busting. We hate them for ramming pride flags down our throats. Both of us see a cartel of multinational corporations and foreign powers that captured our government and sold our future. They want trust busting. We want a nationalist industrial policy. Different roads, same destination: power must be returned to the people.
The number one thing that unites us, the foundation we must lay first, is national sovereignty. Neither the populist left nor the nationalist right can fight for the things we want so long as our country and our politicians are controlled by Israeli interests and donors. A foreign government has embedded itself so deeply into our political system that our own ambassadors celebrate traitors in our embassies. We both know this and we can both unite on ending it.
The left wants Medicare for All. They want to fight climate change. They want student debt cancellation. We want to end abortion. We want to protect the family. We want to restore sovereignty and manufacturing. But here is the hard truth: we cannot have those fights honestly until we reclaim our government from foreign capture. So long as AIPAC writes legislation and the ADL polices speech and Israeli donors fund both parties to the tune of billions, we are not living in a democracy. We are living in an occupied state.
Think about it. The same Republican senators who vote for fourteen billion to Israel will vote against twelve billion for American infrastructure. The same Democratic congressmen who cry about corporate greed will line up to support whatever military adventure Israel wants. Why? Because the donor class has made support for Israel the price of admission. You cannot run for dogcatcher in this country without kissing the wall. That means the populist left cannot fight for their economic agenda because the money is controlled by people who demand war spending first. And we cannot fight for our social agenda because the same money demands we bow to a foreign flag.
This is the common ground. We both want our country back. We both want politicians who answer to Toledo, not Tel Aviv. We both want a press that can question foreign influence without being smeared as bigots. We both want to be able to say, loud and clear, that American interests come first without being called antisemites or isolationists or any of the other slurs they use to shut us up.
The establishment fears this convergence more than anything. They can handle left right warfare. They cannot handle left right agreement that the game is rigged. That is why they will call us both antisemites and extremists. We cannot let them win and we cannot allow them to continue holding our nation hostage.
The left wants to build their vision of America. We want to build ours. But neither of us can lift a single brick so long as someone else owns the construction site. That is the realization that changes everything.
That is the foundation of what comes next.
