The level of antisemitism like actual antisemitism against Jews that people are willing to tolerate for the sake of Israel is truly extraordinary.

And I'm not even addressing the racism against Palestinians here.
Donald Trump: "Schumer is a Palestinian as far as I am concerned. He has become a Palestinian. He used to be Jewish. He is not Jewish anymore. He is a Palestinian."

Mahmoud Khalil's rights should be defended for their own sake, and for his unborn child's sake, but they should also be defended on principle and for all of our sakes. The slope is slippery; the rights are crucial.
if you as an American Jew do not want to be used as the excuse for Trump's destruction of civil liberties and basic democratic protections, the time to speak out is right now

We're seeing Neimöller's famous "first they came for" poem play out in real time and every institution is failing to meet the moment.
All this administration does is put every single nonprofit and institution into a trolley problem of either sacrificing trans people or hurting everyone else by eliminating federal funding.

It won't end with us. They'll do this with every minority until it's only white men who are left.

Boycotting Target is the correct thing to do. We also must ensure the Black & other minority-owned businesses that sell their products in Target are supported.

It’s important to note that Target is rolling back the program that brought so many of these brands to their stores. 🧵

Do you know why a president would do all the most evil and heinous shit via Executive Order? Because his party can't easily make it law. And if they can't make it law, they can't make it last.

Don't let anyone make you feel like this is The End. Do not let them demoralize you. Live to see them die.

The threat of ICE has tons of people on high alert, the result is claims of ICE seen without firm or specific info people can actually use — & sometimes, no ICE at all.

It’s never “ICE spotted in Queens,” but “4 SUVs labeled DHS seen parked on 57th & 59th in Maspeth at 2:34pm.”

Be specific!
