    Congrats everyone it’s February. One month closer to March, which means we’re closer to Spring.

    "It is now your turn to shape your legacy with regards to Guantánamo." Powerful letter from former GITMO detainees, calling on Biden to close the inhumane prison camp once and for all.

    One the one hand, she believes George Soros is funding the destruction of the country, on the other hand, she loves Israel. Or maybe they’re the same hand.

    Thank you for your support! I will always stand up and fight back against the evil radical left & Anti-Americans like George Soros who fund radical causes to destroy our country. And I will always stand with our great ally Israel!

    No no, you see, Marjorie Taylor Greene stands with Israel, so it's A-OK.

    I really feel like Marjorie Taylor Greene's extreme anti-Semitism gets lost in the discussion of her broader seditious nuttiness. If Ilhan Omar ever said anything like this -- which she wouldn't -- every Democrat would have to answer for it.

    Nice to see a fight over a Brooklyn District Leader who attacked Palestinians in genocidal terms. (Calling them "Amalekites." Look it up.) Yes, it's sad the BK Dem Party won't call for her resignation, but still, progress that there's a fight.

    BK Dem Party is the largest county of Dems in the US. DLs have the power to staff election poll sites, select local judicial candidates & influence how the local Dem party functions. Refusing to at least ask for resignation of a DL who called for Palestinian genocide is shocking.

    Apparently, a response to articles on Anne Neuberger, top cybersecurity aide in the Biden admin. NBC and Mother Jones raised questions about her donations to AIPAC, quoting some saying it was unethical for someone close to an org aligned with a country that spies on US to serve

    We are appalled by recent spurious accusations against our staff. We welcome oversight and scrutiny, but there is no justification for false and ad hominem attacks based on ethnic, racial, or religious identity. 1/2

    This is a misleading headline.

    A candidate for City Council in Queens said she supports people's right to boycott Israel — didn't even say she supports BDS herself — and is being pilloried in the pages of the Forward as a rabid anti-Semite

    Weiss, who wrote a book about antisemitism, is perfectly fine sharing a stage and heaping praise on a long-standing purveyor of vicious Islamophobia and anti-Muslim tropes and conspiracies.

    . Hirsi Ali is one of those people who many admit to admiring in private but are scared to say so out loud. I could not be prouder to share a virtual stage with her on February 11 to discuss her new book PREY. Please join us:

    Very interesting.

    Noteworthy that , which is part of , didn't sign onto this statement advocating against new domestic terrorism laws that would almost certainly be used against Black, Muslim, & Arab communities. Proud of the Jewish orgs that did sign on.
