Jewish Biden Appointee WARNED Admin To STOP Supporting Israel

Full show with former Army Major Harrison Mann & Former Biden appointee Lily Greenberg Call

Lily Greenberg Call, the first Jewish Biden appointee to resign over Gaza, reflects on why she quit and how the Administration put Jews at risk: “a lot of especially non Jewish people in leadership in the administration tried to tell me [their support of Israel] was because they cared about my family and my community's safety and my friends who were dead and that this was was the best thing to do for them. And I was like, ‘how dare you? How dare you tell me that’.” She even warned senior leadership and Kamala Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff, “ I did not feel that the administration's policies were keeping me safe or keeping my loved ones safe. People did not want to talk about the fact that the root cause of all of this is continued US support for Israeli apartheid and occupation. And that made people very, very uncomfortable.”

Lily Greenberg Call is a former special assistant to the chief of staff at the Department of Interior. She has nearly a decade of experience in politics, movement organizing, and domestic and international human rights work. She worked on Vice President Kamala Harris’ 2020 primary campaign and President Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign and served in the Biden administration until May 15, 2024, when she became the first Jewish political appointee to resign in protest of U.S. policy in Gaza. Lily has appeared as a guest on MSNBC, CNN, NBC, and given commentary and written articles for The Washington Post, Politico, The Guardian, and Truthout. She holds a B.A. in Political Science and Public Policy from the University of California, Berkeley.
