CHILLING Message from Jewish-American Governor Pritzker: “I do not invoke the specter of Nazis lightly. I'm watching with a foreboding dread what is happening in our country right now. “After we’ve discriminated against, deported or disparaged all the immigrants and the gay and lesbian and transgender people, the developmentally disabled, the women and the minorities — once we’ve ostracized our neighbors and betrayed our friends — after that, when the problems we started with are still there staring us in the face – what comes next?” “All the atrocities of human history lurk in the answer to that question. And if we don’t want to repeat history, then for God’s sake in this moment we better be strong enough to learn from it." "It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic. All I’m saying is when the five-alarm fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.”

Somewhere in Alabama there is at least one woman, hoping IVF could help her have a baby, who just saw several thousand dollars and ~7-10 days of injecting herself with drugs all go down the drain.

@CraigKlugman Sickening to hear this.

I woke yesterday morning, at the beginning of the 85th remembrance of the Kristallnacht pogrom to find antisemitic blood libel posters all over campus. They were taken down, we got a thought & prayers email from admin, and formed the first campus Jewish Faculty-Staff Alliance.
