ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt just went on Shai Davidai's podcast to rant about the "pathology of victimhood,” liberalism, and intersectionality. As Jews committed to stopping antisemitism and protecting democracy & civil liberties, Greenblatt’s attitude completely undermines the fight against Jew hatred. 🧵


New York, let's get organized. In a city of over 8 million, just 400 people showed up to speak at the last Rent Guidelines Board hearing — where decisions about rents are made. We can do better. If we want a city that works for tenants and landlords alike, we need New Yorkers to show up and make their voices heard. The next hearings are this June. Visit ORGANIZE.NYC.GOV to get involved.


A veto of basic protections for Jewish New Yorkers tells you everything you need to know about the direction of this city. Yesterday, I made it clear: the Attorney General has the authority to act right now. When elected, I will.

Ensuring students and congregants can enter and exit their schools and houses of worship without fear of harassment or intimidation should not be controversial. The safe access bills simply require the NYPD to clearly outline how they will ensure safe access when there are threats of obstruction or physical injury, while fully protecting First Amendment rights.

My statement on the Mayor's veto of my Safe Access to Schools legislation.

The strongest political force in New York is the NYPD. Any serious organizing in this city has to contend with that fact.

The free press is under attack, and monopolizing mergers like the Warner Bros-Paramount deal will further reduce trust and independence in media. This will increase CEO profits while hurting creators and consumers alike. #BlockTheMerger



This guy is a hero: “As a Jew I’d say there’s nothing hard about being Jewish right now. Palestinians are being genocided. Lebanese are being genocided. Iranians are being bombed by a genocidal entity called Israel & any Jew to make this about themselves is wildly out of touch.”

So it seems like @NYCMayor has union, civil rights groups, immigrant groups and Jewish groups applauding his veto of @JulieMenin's @NYCCouncil's ridiculous Trump-aligned ban on free speech in and near our schools. Love to @MaketheRoadNY @JFREJNYC @1199SEIU @CWAUnion @DoctorsCouncil @NationalNurses @ACLU @NYCLU @jewishaction for seeing right through this.
