As someone who has led workshops on combating antisemitism at universities in both the United States and Europe, I can tell you the required trainings at Northwestern and elsewhere claiming criticisms of Israel or Zionism are antisemitic are about indoctrination, not education.

OLIVER: "Gaza is starving is a sentence that's objectively true, but it's also slightly misleading because it's too passive — Gaza is being starved by Israel."

"Sadness is like a little bit of an emotional death but not a defeat if you can find a way to laugh about it. Because that laughter keeps you from having fear of it, and fear is the thing that keeps you turning to evil devices to save you from the sadness."

🚨Democrats, led by VoteVets members, are fighting back against Trump’s illegal assault on USAID—driven by unelected President Musk and his puppet in the White House.
Blocking public servants, gutting security, handing power to Russia & China—this is an attack on America. We won’t stand for it.
