Too many Democrats spent a good part of last year demonizing campus protesters, refusing to acknowledge Palestinians as humans, and painting people who want an end to Israel's genocidal actions as terrorists.
Trump is pouring on the gas, but Dems lit the match and threw in some logs.

The lawlessness, incompetence and brutality are accelerating as the Republic tips toward dictatorship.
Senate Democrats, under Schumer's leadership, are useless and essentially collaborators. Democratic governors need to get straight on what the plan is.

NEW—After a day of uncertainty on where agents took Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk, she appears to be in a Louisiana facility.
1400+ miles from Somerville, Massachusetts, where she was taken.
A judge ordered to not take her out of state without 48 hour notice. She was detained last night.

So ICE has effectively disappeared a student for protesting Israel's genocide, separating him from his 8 month pregnant wife. Pure fascism
UPDATE—Mahmoud's attorney says they do NOT know where he is.
They were first told he was sent to an ICE facility in Elizabeth, NJ. But when his 8-month-pregnant wife tried to visit him, she was told he's not there.
They've received reports he may be sent as far away as Louisiana.

Key details here are that they did so under incorrect belief he was here on a student visa. Presented evidence that he holds a green card, agents on the spot declared it revoked. This isn't rule of law. And because fence sitters will ask: Even far right orgs present no evidence of support for Hamas.

What cannot be lost in all this is that students have simply been demanding their tuition not go towards funding an illegal occupation, nor a genocide. Everything that has come after is a product of the powers that be vehemently refusing to honor that entirely reasonable ask.

🚨 Sources say there’ve been reports of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Columbia’s campus today, including in a dorm hall.
Comes as the Trump admin cuts grant funding to the school, and as it ramps up threats to arrest + deport students involved in pro-Palestine/anti-war protests.

Much of the chaos of the past few weeks can be understood as part of the Trump administration’s “central ideological project: restoring America’s traditional hierarchies of race and gender,” @adamserwer.bsky.social writes. Call it the “Great Resegregation.”

More on the wishlist for making @signal.org work better for teams — you guys are crushing it though 💕
Exactly — without this, it’s pretty overwhelming rn. Even “communities” like WhatsApp has would help — ability to opt-in to themed discussion channels within a larger group.
Also, in Slack you can send automated messages, create welcome and onboarding sequences, for new members, etc

In which the Times of Israel has as a *featured post* an argument that American Jews who oppose Israel should be treated as apostates and abandoned because we "worship at the altar of human rights to the exclusion of Jews and/or Israelis." I'm not joking.

Trump proclaims he is Jews' 'defender and protector' but many Christian nationalists in these efforts hold a proselytizing, End-Times agenda. This is the grim contradiction at the heart of MAGA antisemitism, but groups like the ADL have chosen their bedfellows
