This man is a total disgrace. He's as much blood on his hands from Jan 6 as drumpf....

I haven't been shy about sharing my criticisms of the ADL. Probably best captured in articles like this one:

I also hope we can agree that antisemitism is alive and well at least in stochastic terrorist events like the Jewish school that was shot up twice in one week in Montreal.
Or with workplace discrimination with more than 50% of Jews and 62% of Muslims have said they experienced it.

How we should measure that is always going to feel dissatisfying since there will always be some disagreement.
@flexghost Breaking: If Trump were any other person he'd be in prison now, legal experts say.
#AmandaMarcotte re: deadly incoherence of #MAGA #LGBTQ+ politics.
"That's the thing about the dehumanizing rhetoric of fascism: It doesn't have a limit. The scope of who no longer counts as a human being and is up for "rooting out" always broadens. Copeland's death is a horrible tragedy. His is also the latest in a line of lives destroyed by the GOP's anti-LGBTQ campaign. That so many people can't — or won't — see that is why this country is careening towards disaster."

@charlesgaba @timo21 these aren’t kids, they’re dangerously stupid fascist adults in positions of power enabled by their dictator #Trump
GOP Senator Markwayne Mullin threatened to start a fist fight with a witness who was testifying today, even standing up & starting to remove his ring.

Today is the first day of Native American Heritage Month. Oklahoma is celebrating by banning Killers of the Flower Moon from schools and libraries.
Former Osage Nation Chief Jim Gray told me, “If we had to live through this history, why can’t white kids have to know about it?”
I’ve been told our film about the Osage, #LongKnife, featuring Chief Gray and the struggles of Osage today, can also expect to get the chop. If necessary, we’ll project it on the side of the State Capitol.
Gaza, Israel, anti-semitism in the US
That's right! It's why I have an intense suspicion of any rhetoric that seems designed to get Jewish people to fight with Black or Muslim people.
It's all divide and conquer tactics that can only benefit white supremacy and contribute to our mutual downfall

And for everyone who’s done so, please stop throwing the “new and improved” Hamas charter in my face. Their goal is to wipe out every Jew.

A person on my feed boosted a post by @wardrup, and I watched this video as a result. I have to say that it is about as powerful a statement against Nazism as I can imagine. I have hundreds of neighbors, acquaintances & family that I wish could/would watch it. Perhaps one or two of them might wake up & understand that the path they have taken is flawed.
Here it is if you missed it
@QasimRashid 😎😂😂😂😂 Geography's & genealogy's not everyone's thing...
@JaneDoeTheFirst @GottaLaff
Maybe the judge is meeting with #Habba to tell her not to violate his gag order about targeting his clerk? Or her filing for a mistrial that she mentioned on Maria Bartiromo's show.
BTW, Note how #Bartiromo used the opportunity to BRING UP the clerk & her alleged donations to the Democrats.
Bartiromo is helping to create an appearance of bias by the judge.
This is how #Fox assists Trump. Repeating allegations & misinformation about the scope of the gag order.
