Overt Anti-Jewish Hate is On the Verge of Going Mainstream
The combination of mainstreamed conspiracy theories and overt hate on X is close to transforming America's relationship with Jews.
open.substack.com
New piece.
The data presented by @thejcpa.bsky.social and @counterhate.com about antisemitism on X is stark: it is being spread to hundreds of millions of people.
Not just antisemitism, but OVERT antisemitism. And that shift means far more than people realize. It won't be long before it leaves X.

Every anti-Jewish hate crime is unacceptable. But was January 2026 a particularly high month for anti-Jewish hate crimes in NYC?
Not really.
But longer-term trends are more sobering. @aryeh-tuchman.bsky.social, Director of the Nexus Center for Antisemitism Research (NCAR), unpacks the data:

i hope there is more unpacking to come (e.g., what is coded as an anti-Jewish hate crime, across cities, etc), but i appreciate @aryeh-tuchman.bsky.social explainer on this:

NEW: A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

the ADLs discomfort with Wisdom reassures *me* that she won’t buy into the weaponized antisemitism the ADL has been championing.
But the ADL still wields a lot of power and it’s gross and, i think, in bad faith to raise “serious concern” over someone like Wisdom, as @eladn.bsky.social says 👇

Truly gross to see the ADL already targeting Phylisa Wisdom before she even started her role. Especially considering her excellent reputation in the Jewish world in NYC, including the institutional one.

But MORE shocking is how far Davis's views are from the vast majority of American Jews! That Adams felt this was his guy is a glimpse into the increasingly-hard right dogma that has washed over some of the leaders and institutions mainstream Democratic politicians turn to as a weathervane. 8/9
Most American Jews say Trump is using antisemitism as an 'excuse' to silence free speech at universities
Most Jewish Americans disapprove of the Trump administration withholding funds from colleges to address anti-Jewish sentiment, according to a new survey.

EXCLUSIVE: Moshe Davis on His Ouster by Mamdani • The new mayor replaced a “proud Zionist” with a controversial liberal activist to head New York City’s Office to Combat Antisemitism.

One of the things bothering me about how people are responding to the Epstein files is that there are tons of conspiracies being created and spread about what’s in them, rather than people just believing the victims like they could have been doing for years now

Peter Thiel has been open about this for a long time. Trump is a way to break the republic, which can then be replaced by “free economic zones” with oligarchs as dictators and tech as a taskmaster for helpless humans without any rights. (1/2)

The combo of white men only & “actually it’s just old dudes having dinner” shows how most conspiracies are not genius plans but messy & boring arrangements run by dudes who happen to have a lot of power.
If more understood this they’d be less likely to blame mythic all powerful Jews for everything.

From the Epstein files: were Paul Volker and Tom Brokaw really members of a secret society with a "no minorities or women allowed" rule? Brokaw is still around -- worth asking him!

This is why this claim that Trump will not be able to subvert elections needs to be fully addressed.
Yes, it’s quite possible they’ll screen it up. But they will try, and they will have many willing accomplices.
We’ve lost so many battles because of the “they can’t pull it off“ argument.

Trump: "These people were brought to our country to vote, & they vote illegally. The Republicans should say, we should take over the voting in at least 15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting. We have states that I won that show I didn't win. You're gonna see something in Georgia"
