In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “The exact wrong answer to a Republican Party that’s flirting with fascism is a man who chose to put vile Nazi imagery on his own body and kept it there for years,” our columnist David French writes about Graham Platner.

Maui Mayor Richard Bissen says tourist who threw rock at Lani, a local Hawaiian monk seal, in viral video will be prosecuted The person has been identified as a 37‑year‑old tourist from Seattle, Washington "Lani is a beloved seal and cherished member of Lāhainā's ocean ʻohana"

We are literally in a war with the GOP and in today’s Democratic Party. Black and Jewish people can look at select few people confidently who are on our side. And we can count on them in this war. I hope the Party understands, it doesn’t win nationally without us.

The 10th edition of Palestine International Marathon was just run… During a “gEnOcIdE?” 🤔 I don’t recall my mom or dad or ANYONE in their respective families running a damned MARATHON during World War II and the Nazi genocide of Jews? 🏃‍♂️

Not long ago, reauthorizations of the Voting Rights Act were bipartisan votes that Democratic and Republican presidents alike signed without controversy.

The Assad regime in Syria murdered hundreds of thousands of syrians. Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis have been murdered since the fall of Saddam...and many more during his reign. Iran's population has lived in fear for decades, both under the Shah and under the Islamic Republic.

But Israel isn't uniquely violent, just uniquely Jewish. Hezbollah has terrorized and murdered the Lebanese population for decades, some would argue as an Iranian proxy...

A very good thread. I hope people read it.

So please people, continue to fight for the rights of Palestinians and people everywhere to live in peace and freedom without the threat of extinction. But remember, Jews are in need of the same protections as everyone else.

Its very discouraging for many of us lefty Jews that we are clearly unwelcome in activist circles if we recognize that the state of Israel has a right to exist. That's it--not a right to murder--a right to exist. No one leads with that.

Antisemitic violence in America reached historic levels in 2025, with physical assaults rising 4% and deadly weapon attacks surging 39% - from 23 incidents in 2024 to 32 in 2025, according to the Anti-Defamation League's annual report released Wednesday.

Schools and universities across the country are recovering from an outage tied to a cyberattack that knocked down Canvas.

School systems of every size have been hit by cyberattacks. "It's not Johnny in his room trying to break in and change his grades anymore," says one superintendent. From the NPR archives.

The obsession with retribution, the self-centeredness, and the anger that consumes the most powerful man in the world will be studied for generations, and used as a model of exactly what “not to be like” for children forever. His name will be a curse word. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

RIP Ted Turner, who was a Film Guy: he bought the MGM library for 1.5 billion dollars primarily so he could own Gone With The Wind, his favorite movie. He gave us TCM and Cartoon Network. He married Jane Fonda. You could do a lot worse when it comes to billionaires

A cat has gone viral online after catching 27 rats in a single night, then lining them up in a neat, almost organized row to show off his “work” to his owner.

Well, this myth of the “Orson Welles on a scooter” picture has been questioned in the past; why not now? Or is it a perennial misidentification because it looks “cool?” 🛵 bsky.app/profile/hype...

You don't get it. I need to air it out.

In honor of Jewish American Heritage Month, we are highlighting the incredible Jewish-American author and activist Emma Lazarus, whose iconic words - “…give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses…” - are etched onto the Statue of Liberty.

🚨Emergency Update 🚨 @theonion.com

⛽ Average U.S. gas prices per gallon on May 2, per AAA ⛽ • Regular: $4.43 (⬆️ $1.45 since war in Iran began on Feb. 28) • Premium: $5.29 (⬆️ $1.43 since war began) • Diesel: $5.63 (⬆️ $1.87 since war began)

This is a real post from the president during a war while gas prices are at a 4-year high and his disapproval is at an all-time high in some polls.

Finally saw “Nadja” (1994). It’s a curious little film. The first two acts were great, but the third and final act? Meh… Too many scenes that make you want to scream, “We get it! Move on already!” The PXL2000 (aka: Pixelvision) effects are neat, but tiresome after a while. Worth a weary watch. 🧛‍♀️🎞️🤷‍♂️

Lions, and giraffes, and bears, and sharks! Oh my! 😱

This is Rooster. He has to wear a cone for the first time and he doesn't know how to act. 13/10 just gonna wait until it's over (IG: roostertheredretriever)

ROSEN: 'Pharisees' is a problematic and historically weaponized term that casts Jewish communities as morally corrupt. You said it today. Words matter. How do you justify using this language? HEGSETH: It's a pretty accurate term for folks who don't see the plank in their own eye. I stand by it.
