After claiming that Donald Trump’s son-in-law no longer has a role in the current administration, JD Vance went to Palestine this week to announce the new “investor” of his ethnic-cleansing plan for the reconstruction of Gaza: Jared Kushner. Which means that after killing or removing every Palestinian from their home, it will be Trump’s own family that profits off the new resort, or “freedom place” as Trump called it, once known as Gaza.

Interestingly, Kushner noted that “no reconstruction funds will go into Hamas-controlled areas” of Gaza. But by the administration’s logic, isn’t that all of Gaza? Sorry Jared, we guess you can’t build after all.

But Kushner and Vance aren’t the only ones spewing insanity over Gaza, which means this Thursday Throwdown is gonna be a headache. NYC Democratic Congressman Dan Goldman (heir of the Levi Strauss family) claims he isn’t ready to endorse Democratic mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani. His reason? Mamdani has done too much to speak out against Israeli violence.

But he’s in good company! We also watch clips from Muslims Against Mamdani and the even more powerful Hot Girls for Cuomo. Just don’t try going to hotgirlsforcuomo.com.

It’s all this, and more, on this week’s nightmare episode of Thursday Throwdown. We’re releasing this one free for everyone, because sometimes everyone needs a good headache.
