We just witnessed Trump signing two executive orders. One to clear the path to the US for the ultra wealthy who can pay $1M. Another to obliterate the path to the US for working class immigrants, demanding a $100,000 application fee. Annually.

This is what happens when you couldn’t hire @mollycrabapple.bsky.social

In order to chill free speech and continue giving Israel blank checks, its propagandists have continued to shift narrative into one where Jews worldwide are unsafe and under attack. But most of us are thriving. And we must use that privilege to liberate Palestinians harmed falsely in our name.

New York, tune in 99.5 FM 9AM right after Democracy Now for our interview with Zohran Mamdani live from @jfrejnyc.bsky.social Mazals. Everyone else, you can livestream the radio show from wbai.org

As predicted, the right wing zionist hasbara machine is hurrying to make Charlie Kirk a hero to Jews.

Out here with @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and @bradlander.bsky.social at the @jfrejnyc.bsky.social Mazal Awards ✨

New Yorker on the tight pleads with New Yorkers on the left to blow their shofar on the subway. Then goes on to give them inside tips on his workout routine.

Northwestern's president was a model for engaging with student protesters. Trump pushed him out of the school. When the right punishes a Jewish college president for "antisemitism" in its quest to destroy educational institutions... ...Sounds like Smokescreen Antisemitism.

I don’t know why my hero Amy Goodman does gang signs, but of course it’s some sort of peace gang.

Victory! Trump just lost his case against Harvard. And the judge rules that “Smokescreen Antisemitism” was at play. Sharon Rose Goldtzvik, the author of the term, explains the concept behind it. Why Trump uses it. And why we’re not falling for it.l”

Dan Goldman thinks that over 150 years of inherited generational wealth is being a “beneficiary of the American Dream” … and that’s a reason to vote FOR him. 😵😵😵

What's that word for when someone writes papers from the POV of Hitler and calls "Mein Kampf" one of his favorite recent reads? It's on the tip of our tongues... Anyway, meet the guy Trump is using to target Harvard for "antisemitism." www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/02/m...

My child is older than ICE. My grandma is older than Israeli apartheid. Both these stains are still removable.

Mazel tov! In your new capacity, do you intend to continue the ADL’s practice of running interference for neo-Nazis like Elon Musk when they publicly perform Hitler salutes? Or will your tenure bring about a break from the fascist dictatorship with which the ADL has lately been so cozy?

Imagine publicly joining an organization whose number one mission today is to protect a genocide.

Watch for @joshuahorowitz.bsky.social’s cowardly response to actor Andrew Garfield simply mentioning the humanity of Palestinians.

Hear me out.

I find the #Zcavengerhunt so affecting. Reminds me of this post from @rafaelshimunov.bsky.social that I go back to a lot. Helping us all hold an affirmative vision of a better world—showing that in fact it’s already coming into being—is so nourishing.

Ooh, I’m excited to hear these great folks talk!

excited to talk about Superman the Supermensch with Shoshana Brown and Rafael Shimunov on Beyond the Pale WBAI 99.5 fm 9am (alt text, image of me and a Superman in two tone behind me)

Why's so much of the pro-Israel and MAGA crowd coping so hard with Superman? We're talking about the politics of James Gunn's Superman with Elana @levin.bsky.social of Graphic Policy Radio, Friday 9AM on 99.5 FM in NY and live streaming on WBAI.org

Wouldn’t it be amazing to see @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social take up the teahuvah offered here and actually interview the plurality of Jewish New Yorkers who support @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social? Bend the Arc used to work with Greenblatt. This would be interesting.

Thanks @andrewrsorkin.bsky.social for starting to repair the mistake of not fact checking Jonathan Greenblatt. If Squawkbox itself wants to visit the entire Jewish community’s feelings around @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social we and the Jewish coalition standing with Zohran are ready when you are.

SCREAMING

These New Yorkers won't be voting for Zohran.

Wow. Trump helps Columbia fuel MORE antisemitism by providing direct payments for "damages" to Jewish faculty who experienced "antisemitism". That'll sure fix antisemitism. archive.is/AZ1yK/again

Maybe an art critic can aptly describe what it's like to watch this, but I'll just say I find it perturbing + strangely engrossing Feels like it belongs somewhere in the lineage of the most ingeniously unsettling performances by Andy Kaufman

Cuomo working on his video glow up

The manosphere is a reaction to thr first time straight men were slightly somewhat held accountable for their actions for 5 minutes

Our show about Awdah Hathaleen, the 31 year old Palestinian teacher murdered by an Israeli settler on Monday is on Spotify now. We were joined by his friend Israeli American peace activist ‪Matan Berner-Kadish‬. open.spotify.com/episode/7AH4...

Arresting a bunch of Rabbis seems pretty antisemitic to me, but I'm sure the ADL would disagree.

Over the past couple years, @bendthearc.bsky.social's stances and messaging on Israel-Palestine have evolved in a way I very much welcome. For an org that has the ear of power players in DC, these words and deeds are notable and admirable. Bravo.

Bend the Arc warns that food aid is not enough, immediate ceasefire with mass medical intervention will be required to save lives of those in starvation. Refeeding syndrome can put Palestinians in Gaza in even MORE risk without medical care.

Israeli anti-Blackness isn't new. When African nations were on the list for colonization instead of Palestine. When Ethiopian Jews were sterilized because Zionism demanded a multi cultural PR stunt, without Black Jewish children threatening their pure majority. newrepublic.com/post/198550/... 🧵

In the middle of a starvation and genocide he helped facilitate from the US, Jonathan Greenblatt the CEO of ADL will be featured on NYTimes The Conversation and The Daily next weekend.

Years ago, someone tried to prevent the Shai Davidai timeline. His name was Zohran Mamdani.

Saw it at the Whitney along with the entire show. Profound and beautiful. Also beautiful to see Amy Sherald refuse to "obey in advance" like the Smithsonian. No negotiating with fascists. It's just you speeding up their desire for total control, making us all less safe and less likely to win.

Once again, the NYT seems determined to prove itself utterly worthless. Sadly, many of us are already aware and do not require additional proof.

Bret Stephens called global warming a mass hysteria, BLM "thuggish", said systemic racial profiling by police is a myth and called the Arab mind a disease. He's not only STILL employed by the NYTIMES.. He gets to follow an op-ed by a genocide SCHOLAR to claim there is none.

why is this mayoral election different than all other mayoral elections? in all other mayoral elections, we get to see andrew cuomo lose but once. but in this mayoral elections, we get to see him lose *twice*.

A big fan.

2004: don't be evil 2025: deny the genocide you're profiting from

NYT had Tom Homan on The Daily this morning as if he was just a normal guest. They have made a clear decision to lick boots. Couldn’t be me.

Good morning New York Times!

When critical race theorists point out that “neutrality” and “objectivity” are often a thin veneer for white supremacy, they mean stuff like this.

WHO WANTS SOME GOOD LEGISLATIVE NEWS!!! 😭 😭

Jews for Zohran came out in huge numbers, and will grow. We spoke with Alicia Singham Goodwin of @jfrejnyc.bsky.social and @bethavedon.bsky.social of JVP Action and what's ahead in their work for a Mayor @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/v...

Zohran’s ability to always turn negative attacks on him into positive ways forward for everyone in this city is remarkable. 🧵

I can’t wait to get eggs bacon cheese on the 9 train to see the Mets in boogie down Brooklyn, ya heard. Signed, all the people who used to say they hate NYC and now say they’re afraid it will be forever changed by a Mayoral candidate who wants us to keep our apartments.
