EXCERPT:
Pennsylvania Supreme Court Justice David Wecht said he has left the Democratic Party over what he said is a growing tolerance for antisemitism.
Wecht, a former top official in the state party, said in a statement Monday that “acquiescence to Jew-hatred is now disturbingly common among activists, leaders and even many elected officials in the Democratic Party.”
“I can no longer abide this. So, I won’t. I am no longer registered with any political party,” wrote Wecht, the son of the late Cyril Wecht, a longtime Democratic leader in Allegheny County and former county medical examiner.
The sudden announcement comes amid a fierce debate among Democrats over U.S. support for Israel, which erupted into pro-Palestinian protests against the war in Gaza on campuses and in cities across the country.
