New report from @AAUP & @MESA_1966 on the weaponization of antisemitism claims shows how Biden used civil rights law as a cudgel against student anti-genocide protesters, and Trump used it as a battering ram for his war against higher ed theguardian.com/us-news/2025/n…

@AAUP @MESA_1966 This is the first systematic study of antisemitism investigations and lawsuits. It tracks the explosion in campus antisemitism investigations -- more opened in the last two months of 2023 than all previous years combined, largely driven by off-campus Zionist advocacy groups.

@dcli @AAUP @MESA_1966 It’s been a bipartisan assault funded by @aipac billionaires on civil rights & higher ed. Defy despots.

With this number of actions against campus anti-Semitism, how has Appalachian State in Virginia Foxx’s district escaped investigation? theappalachianonline.com/antisemitism-a… can we generalize about which colleges and universities are likely to get investigated? Is it mostly for criticism of Israel and not the kind of anti-Semitism common among Young Republicans and groypers? Are the investigated schools in blue cities and states?

@dcli @AAUP @MESA_1966 Watching it start under Biden was appalling. He and his ilk ushered in fascism in so many ways over so many decades. But this was such a public face of it.

@dcli @AAUP @MESA_1966 @CUNY @chancellorCUNY gave up faculty/staff info from @BaruchCollege @BrooklynCollege @CUNYLaw @QC_News & CUNY Central; 2d to @UMichiganNews agreeing for 2023-25 school years. What's the plan to fight @PSC_CUNY? Gr8 work @aaup @dcli. @CUNY4P @mullincorinna @ZohranKMamdani

@dcli @AAUP @MESA_1966 These people don’t belong in our democracy. Don’t not vote for anyone who’s a close ally of this mob in any capacity. Voters alone can destroy this system.

@dcli @AAUP @MESA_1966 No surprise Harris lost.

@dcli @AAUP @MESA_1966 What causes anti-Semitism?
