I feel sick to my stomach reading the reports from Palestinian prisoners released from Israeli detention. I genuinely want to vomit.

Great special issue, and not only because my paper is in there

The democratic party cant be competent even a single week

yes senator they're roasting you on Bluesky, sir yes full roast sir, the communists, the wine moms, Bill Kristol, they're all roasting you, sir no, sir, I haven't seen him in Waiting for Godot, but he's roasting you, too, sir

After 7 Arabs citizens of Israel shot and killed over weekend, hundreds rally outside PM’s office, as National Security Minister Ben Gvir, who oversees the police, is accused of deliberately ignoring violent crime in Arab society as a matter of policy. www.timesofisrael.com/after-7-arab...

Why does the House, the larger of the two legislative bodies, not simply eat the Senate

I'm serious, we NEED to organize massive protests tomorrow at Schumer's offices, this man cannot be trusted to hold office, period. Not only is he not the right person for the moment, he is the WORST person for the moment. Riley, the old blind dog on my block, would have better political instincts.

Recorded an episode with @ayoub.bsky.social about mamdani and this was the dopamine hit i needed

Things are fine.

It is truly astounding how much they want to hurt people

Any Palestinian who thinks they have to "give it to Candace owens" is a useful idiot. Yes yes lets align with the far right at a time when the issue is essentially mainstreamed in normal circles. I wonder who benefits from this re-alignment

NEW: Inside the Biden administration debates in late 2024 that could have changed the course of the Gaza war -top intel official sought to cut support for Israel but Brett McGurk pushed back -talk of "very likely" US liability -Blinken spoke of "ethnic cleansing" www.huffpost.com/entry/biden-...

“The Committee’s unfounded accusations, dependence on clearly compromised sources, and selective presentation of ‘evidence’ represent an unprecedented abuse of congressional power—designed not to find the truth, but to silence leadership that refuses to yield to political pressure.” — GMU-AAUP

Too much comedy posting but I saw Gianmarco Soresi and he was even more excellent than I expected

This was an excellent listen @jewishcurrents.bsky.social jewishcurrents.org/confronting-...

Billionaire Marc Rowan wrote Trump's "Academic Compact" loyalty oath in order to, in his words, destroy universities the way seen in Europe in the 30's and 40's. His private equity firm Apollo also owns the University of Phoenix, the country's biggest creator of student debt.

They want you stupid. They want to take away your path to social mobility. They want to take away your ability to think and analyze your own reality. They want to keep you distracted. That's why they dont want Palestine in universities. That's why they use Palestine to attack universities.

🚨 New @therealnews.com: I speak w/ a panel of grad student workers & union members from Columbia University & the University of Michigan about the chilling new reality on their campuses & what it’s like to live, learn, & work there today @swcolumbia.bsky.social therealnews.com/campus-life-...

“They didn’t just walk in chasing one person, they went into multiple rooms asking and looking for teachers while children were present,” Ramirez said. “This is an agency that has gone rogue and it an agency that believes that as long as they can cover their face, they can get away with anything.”

PSA: Eric Adams is on Ziwe tomorrow Be prepared

By this time next week, the estimated deaths due to the illegal destruction of USAID and the shuttering of its aid efforts will breach 400,000. More than 260,000 will be children. Source: www.bu.edu/sph/news/art...

"in the last year of the Biden administration, officials opened nearly twice as many inquiries over antisemitism allegations than over all other types of racial discrimination. Under Trump, the latter type appear to have ended altogether."

Important new report out from AAUP & MESA, “The data…offers a detailed account of how landmark civil rights legislation – and particularly Title VI of the 1964 Civil Rights Act – has become a primary tool to restrict speech on campus.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

😂 This is such splendid denial. Basically, "the people are just GENERALLY angry and simply happened to express it by registering their absolute loathing for us. I get that. We are on the same page. I also absolutely loathe myself."

Good grief lol

The ADL is terrified that the Mamdani administration will continue to demonstrate that a genuine, tangible commitment to the well-being of Jews in America can coexist alongside staunch opposition to the policies of a country on the other side of the planet. It hurts their bottom line

MESA and the AAUP have released a critical report exposing the weaponization of civil rights law to suppress campus speech concerning Palestine. Read full report here: mesana.org/advocacy/tas...

I participated in an event for @rvamag.bsky.social two weeks ago and was asked if authoritarianism is inevitable in America. Let yesterday be a reminder that when we fight, we win, and authoritarianism is never inevitable.

Mamdani's victory wasn't only a repudiation of an old and exhausted political establishment in the city, it was also a triumph over the framing power of the political press, and none more so than the New York Times, whose coverage and editorials worked relentlessly to dampen his appeal.

My war on terror childhood trauma is healing

Compare how Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL responded to Zohran Mamdani winning the mayoral election in NYC to how he responded to the Heritage Foundation mainstreaming actual neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes.

It took the ADL like four days to respond to Nick Fuentes breaking into the mainstream last week

We did it for you Dick Cheney

Yall your jokes are too funny. Plz let me go i have work to do

People who are leaving NYC, please post pix of your U-Hauls!

We are coming for you, billionaire class

Andrew Cuomo to join Harvard’s Institute of Politics

I told yall I have faith in the american people. I know the american project can continue

Oh and fuck Hakeem Jeffries and fuck Chuck Schumer

Looks like the Dems will pick up 12 seats in the VA House of Delegates, which will go from 51-49 to 63-37 D-R. That's an honestly shocking result.
