Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, she began her modeling and photography career in 2017 and has been consistently sharing her content on Instagram ever since. After experiencing the rapid rise of antisemitism following October 7, 2023, Corinne felt driven to use her platform to highlight and spread awareness of the hatred the jewish community has been facing, both online and beyond, by sharing the antisemitism she and other Jewish creators experience on a daily basis on social media. While still consistently posting her normal modeling content, Corinne regularly discusses antisemitism and Jewish experiences in both posts and daily stories.

    The Democrats have decided to hitch their wagon to a Palestinian who was born in a refugee “camp” in Syria, but came to the U.S. on an Algerian passport who has spent his two years here advocating for a terrorist organization.

    Clearly, they’ve learned nothing.

    If you don’t know Amanda Peterson, she has been a staunch non-Jewish ally of Israel even prior to October 7th. She was one of the first people I connected with when I started creating content and has become a good friend in the process. As two former party political operatives, she for the right and me for the left, we decided to take the plunge into a special podcast series discussing how to fix the Democratic Party.

    Both of us believe it’s vital for a viable, normal Democratic Party to exist because even as a Republican, Amanda knows her side won’t always win; as such, there might as well be someone not crazy in a seat of power.

    Hopefully you enjoy two people who disagree on a lot of issues actually end up agreeing on what the problem is with the Democratic Party, and how it needs to change to ensure it doesn’t go the way of the Whigs.
