Hillel at @TheNewSchool was found to have taken money from mandatory student fees and used it to support specific units in the IDF known for notorious war crimes. I think doing that should itself be a crime, but the audacity to think there is some natural right you have to take other people’s student fee funds and spend them on war crimes is mind blowing. Hillel can’t raise its own funds to support units carrying out war crimes?
ZXX
Why is the "center of Jewish life on campus" materially aiding & abetting formally implicated war criminals?
If you can't look past this reasonable (and obvious) justification to withhold funding until they stop, you're not a serious person.
Tali Goldsheft@TaliGoldsheft
Despicable news. NYC’s @TheNewSchool student senate has voted to suspend Hillel’s funding & collaboration. Hillel is the center of Jewish life on campus. Not a word, of course, from NYC’s “antisemitism czar” @phylisajoy who appears to be on a perpetual “listening tour” serving as Mamdani’s official token Jew.

@JimHansonDC His position is premature, I can acknowledge that; there's still much to look forward towards. I agree with Adam that at this time, we haven't achieved what we've set out to achieve.
English
@RealOmarFreij Adam's assertion starts from a false premise that if you don't gain concessions during a conflict you are not winning.
The reality is that is possible, but not the strategy. You fight (and defeat) them to force them into concessions.
English
@JimHansonDC Not doubting your experience, credentials, nor your intent, Jim - and thank you for your service.
I just think it's interesting that folks aren't willing to acknowledge Adam's fair assertion.
English
@RealOmarFreij The key word is "force" in most cases that requires defeat.

@brymanley @EricMGarcia She's the better option, but I wouldn't fault anyone for withholding their vote as she supports genocide

Can you imagine a freshman Democratic Senate class with James Talarico, Graham Platner, Abdul El-Sayed, Roy Cooper and Mary Peltola?

BREAKING: Mallory McMorrow is the only candidate who says she won't vote for Chuck Schumer.

🚨 Zohran Mamdani has signed an executive order blocking ICE agents from entering NYC property without a warrant.

The McMorrow campaign is restoring to straight-up lying in an attempt to save face.
@AbdulElSayed has clearly articulated that he supports @ChrisVanHollen.

@shestheman @letat_lechat @DanielBiss BDS is modeled after the same program used to end apartheid in SA.
It's literally no different in tactics. The point is to force an oppressive government to change for the better through economic pressure.
How that's conflate by some to mean genocide, I have no idea...

@letat_lechat @DanielBiss Thanks for showing us you hate the first amendment
Omar@RealOmarFreij
@DanielBiss Anti-BDS is anti-1A. Protest is our God-given right and no one has the right to tell us who we can and cannot support.
English
Some have asked where I stand on the bill to repeal Illinois’ anti-BDS law.
I support it. Here’s why:

@watchmannn Oh wait you think Platner is going to end the conflict in the Middle East that has been going on long before you were born and stop christofacsists from killing women with their abortion bans? lol
English
Leftists shitting on Mills and her supporters because Platner will be the candidate in Maine forget that they actually need the votes of normie Dems to win this election.
English
Haven't seen a single post shitting on Mills or her supporters.
She ran a trash campaign, that's it.
Now "Vote Blue No Matter Who" are coming up with excuses to do the opposite.
Stand by your principles...

Israeli police say a 36-year-old Jewish man has been arrested over this assault on a French nun in occupied East Jerusalem.
Video shows her being shoved to the ground and kicked, renewing concern over violence against Israel’s religious minorities.

Farm Bill [including SOBA] just passed the house.
Call your senators and demand they vote 'No' until SOBA is axed.
If the people don't stand up for the welfare of sentient, intelligent animals, nobody will.
And what does that say about us...
Omar@RealOmarFreij
This is a truly diabolical move by House Rules Committee... They forced SABA into the Farm Bill - now we need to ensure our reps are voting NO on the Farm Bill, at and until SABA is removed. Please call your rep today! (202) 225-3121

Last night, Israeli forces intercepted and boarded a humanitarian aid flotilla bound for Gaza in international waters off the coast of Greece — unlawfully detaining more than 175 people, including several New Yorkers.
My team has been in direct contact with State and Federal partners as we work to confirm the whereabouts and conditions of these New Yorkers.
This is a brazen violation of international law. Those detained must be released.

This + Detroit Chamber poll (much more realistic demo of the primary than favorable polls for McMorrow) shows the limit of DC-think on heartland races.
Most reliable portion of primary voters know & like Stevens more, & she can’t be accused of being anything but a Michigander.
Jonathan Martin@jmart
and yet again, the risk of falling for candidates who go viral maybe she gets through the primary but she’d come out in august to a barrage of gop ads citing the below

@HouseDemocrats Maybe get your cohort in line...
14 DEMOCRATS VOTED FOR THE FARM BILL.
This is outrageous.

Republicans’ Farm Bill doesn’t help farmers OR families.
Instead, it prioritizes private profits by handing pesticide corporations a sweetheart deal.
English
Call your state's US Senators!!!
Matthew Dominguez@Matt_Dominguez
Breaking: The Farm Bill has passed the House with “Save Our Bacon” language that harms family farmers and strips states of their right to pass food safety and animal welfare laws. The fight for family farmers, states’ rights, and animal welfare is not over. This is yet another reminder that @NPPC is more interested in keeping mother pigs locked in crates than listening to consumers who want the pork industry to move away from cruel confinement. Now it moves to the Senate — and senators need to hear from you. Call the Senate switchboard now and ask to be connected to your two U.S. senators. Tell them to oppose any Farm Bill that includes “Save Our Bacon” language. Senate switchboard: (202) 224-3121 We’ll keep fighting — and we’ll win in the Senate. Then send a follow-up email: ciwf.com/farmbill

Lewis Bollard@Lewis_Bollard
This is shocking: the House Rules Committee just blocked a vote on stripping the Save Our Bacon Act from the farm bill. The SOB Act, buried deep in the farm bill, would wipe out state bans on pork from crated pigs, condemning millions to a lifetime in gestation crates. We were getting very close to having the votes to pass Rep. Luna’s bipartisan amendment to strip the SOB Act from the bill on the floor of the House. Then pork industry lobbyists got to work. Behind closed doors, they got Rules Committee leadership to stop a vote entirely and protect the SOB Act from the scrutiny it can’t survive. The only option now is to kill the whole rotten farm bill. Please call your representatives at (202) 225-3121 and tell them to vote NO.
