SXSW organizers are defending their decision to feature Columbia University graduate and pro-Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil on a panel this weekend, after critics — including Jewish student leaders — accused the festival of giving a platform to rhetoric they say supports Hamas and endangers Jewish students. statesman.com/news/politics/…

The attack on Temple Israel in West Bloomfield, Michigan is horrifying. My thoughts are with the congregation and all who are shaken by this act of antisemitic violence. I am continuing to closely monitor the situation. Out of an abundance of caution, the NYPD will continue to deploy high-visibility patrols to Jewish religious and cultural institutions across the five boroughs.

It is not “Islamophobic” to associate Mamdani with Islamist terrorism, because Mamdani keeps associating with radical imams, activists whose mission is to destroy Western civilization, noxious antisemites, and people connected to terror groups. Mamdani is a terrorist, and Mamdani is the enemy.







UC Berkeley spokesman Dan Mogulof told @FreeBeacon that the logo is part of the group's "First Amendment rights." Berkeley's online "Free Speech FAQ," however, says incitement to "commit acts of violence" is not protected—and @FDD senior analyst @JoeTruzman said the Hamas triangle is "absolutely" an example of such incitement.


Latest from @LevineJonathan: NYC First Lady Rama Duwaji illustrated an essay by an author who rails against “Jewish supremacists,” calls Israeli Jews “demonic parasites,” and praised Candace Owens. freebeacon.com/democrats/zohr…

UC Berkeley Allows SJP Chapter To Display Symbol Hamas Uses To Mark Israeli Targets freebeacon.com/campus/uc-berk…

NEW from me Zohran Mamdani's wife, Rama Duwaji, provided illustrations for a book compiled by Susan Abulhawa — who has called Jews "rootless parasites" , "cockroaches" "rabid demons" — and many other names



When Rama Duwaji was asked how she felt about becoming First Lady, she paused for a moment to think. “It is surreal to hear. I think there are different ways to be First Lady, especially in New York,” she said. “When I first heard it, it felt so formal and like — not that I didn’t feel deserving of it, but it felt like, Me …? Now I embrace it a bit more and just say, ‘There are different ways to do it.’” A little over a week after The Cut published the first-ever sit-down interview with Rama Duwaji, she became New York City’s First Lady.

NEW from me: UC Berkeley, is allowing its Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) chapter to include an inverted red triangle—a symbol Hamas uses to denote Israeli targets—in its logo. The image is displayed on an official university webpage for the group. 🧵 🧵
