The level of antisemitism like actual antisemitism against Jews that people are willing to tolerate for the sake of Israel is truly extraordinary.

Trump is using Mahmoud Khalil to test his mass deportation plan | Heba Gowayed The Palestinian student’s arrest at Columbia University is a harbinger of what’s to come on college campuses

Trump is using Mahmoud Khalil to test his mass deportation plan | Heba Gowayed

Mahmoud Khalil's rights should be defended for their own sake, and for his unborn child's sake, but they should also be defended on principle and for all of our sakes. The slope is slippery; the rights are crucial.

Three unidentified men, who were not wearing badges or ID, violently removed a woman at a town hall from her seat by order of the Idaho county sheriff after she criticized a Republican state legislator for stealing “timber from public land.”

We're seeing Neimöller's famous "first they came for" poem play out in real time and every institution is failing to meet the moment.

We’re so close to antisemitism being redefined as not supporting the construction of a Trump tower in Gaza

Boycotting Target is the correct thing to do. We also must ensure the Black & other minority-owned businesses that sell their products in Target are supported.

It’s important to note that Target is rolling back the program that brought so many of these brands to their stores. 🧵

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

if we staff ICE with Uvalde police officers, they'll never enter schools

This New Immigration Bill That’s About to Pass Is a Horrifying Trojan Horse If Democrats cannot recover their nerve and stand up to this extremism, they will be complicit in the devastating consequences of its passage.

The Laken Riley Act is a sweeping assault on legal immigration. It would subject immigrants *authorized to live and work here* to indefinite detention without a criminal conviction. And it would let a federal judge ban ALL visas from entire countries at a state's request. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Spread Information not panic When reporting or signal boosting potential threats: provide as much information as possible! S.A.L.U.T.E. Size/Strength "5 to 6 Armed Agitators" Actions/Activity "Harassing random people on the move" Location & Direction "Manhattan, East of Central Park, E 97th St" Uniform/Clothes "Dark Jackets, ballcaps" Time & Date of Observation "8:32 PM June01" Equipment & Weapons "They have Body Armor and Pepper spray" Not a useful tweet: "proudboys spotted" "Where? When? What are they doing? How Many? What are they carrying?" Use your Judgement!

The threat of ICE has tons of people on high alert, the result is claims of ICE seen without firm or specific info people can actually use — & sometimes, no ICE at all.

It’s never “ICE spotted in Queens,” but “4 SUVs labeled DHS seen parked on 57th & 59th in Maspeth at 2:34pm.”

Be specific!

There is no "debate" over the Nazi salute because we all saw him do a Nazi salute. There are just some people who are either experiencing too much cognitive dissonance to accept that's what they saw or are willing to intentionally lie about it
