I’d think what you’d want during a highly volatile, politically polarized time marked by violence is a president who can appeal to our common values and humanity and inspire calm and unity, rather than promising revenge.

The situation in Gaza is unacceptable and antithetical to our Jewish values, and it’s incumbent on the Israeli government, the United States, and all parties to ensure that Gazans have access to food.

Tyrants view educated citizens as their greatest enemy.

Slaveholders stopped the enslaved from learning to read. Nazis burned books. Dictators censor media.

That’s why Trump is attacking the Dept. of Education, science, and the arts – to prevent us from learning.

It's fascism.

Kennedy’s ACIP 2.0 is as expected. Headlined by charlatans that have nothing to lose and will rubber stamp ludicrous policies.

I strongly urge my fellow healthcare providers to speak up and be unafraid. We must ensure there is accountability through collective action.

Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

Pritzker invokes his own Jewish background in responding to Trump:
"Stop tearing down the Constitution in the name of my ancestors. Do not claim that your authoritarian power grabs are about anti-semitism. When you destroy social justice, you are disparaging the very foundation of Judaism."

American Jews overwhelmingly (56%-31%) disapprove of Trump’s approach to countering antisemitism.

They don’t want Democratic and academic institutions and freedoms that for so long have protected Jews, being attacked under the pretext of defending them.

RFK's pledge to find "what caused the autism epidemic" in a few short months is a transparent lie, to cover a preordained conclusion.

But digging deeper, it gets much worse: it's about justifying a downright sadistic assault on children's health.

Rumeysa Ozturk didn't create a "ruckus," she exercised her First Amendment rights (which extends to noncitizens).

If you want to expel foreigners creating a ruckus, expel Elon Musk, who is currently setting fire to our government.

(And didn't you pardon people who caused a REAL ruckus on Jan 6?)
Marco Rubio on Rumeysa Ozturk: "We revoked her visa ... once you've lost your visa, you're no longer legally in the United States ... if you come into the US as a visitor and create a ruckus for us, we don't want it. We don't want it in our country. Go back and do it in your country."
