The Trump administration is demanding, in effect, a list of Jewish faculty, staff, and students at Penn. So far, Penn is resisting the subpoena. Please sign this petition in support of their resistance!

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.

“Despite the administration’s stated focus on countering antisemitism, it has largely ignored right-wing antisemitism.” I’m shocked… shocked, I say!” #notinourname
When anti-Semites claim to be fighting anti-Semitism they trivialize a very real problem and thereby deliberately make it worse. Attacking universities was always about spreading anti-Semitism, not combatting it.

ICE has been cracking down hard across the vast expanse of the greater Chicago area, and I wrote a little bit about what you need to understand about what it’s like here now. Plus, I compiled some resources for locals to get alerts and whistles. dansinker.com/posts/202…

As the government shutdown begins, remember that one of the biggest deficit drivers of the past 20 years are Republican tax cuts for the wealthy & corporations. The issue isn't programs that help millions of Americans, it's giveaways to the rich.

Van Hollen says that he asked the VP of El Salvador why his government continues to hold Abrego Garcia even though he’s not charged with any crime and there’s no evidence that he’s MS-13.

“His answer was that the Trump administration is paying the government of El Salvador to keep him at CECOT”
