This is antisemitic. It's racist towards Palestinians. It's dangerous. And yet: there are so many anti-Palestinian racists who have tried to control the megaphone of Jewish voices that a big narrative will be: "It's antisemitic NOT to call him Palestinian." Never more clear why we need solidarity.

MANDATE PANTS "The idea that somehow Democrats have the responsibility to pass a CR where we don’t have any input is ridiculous. You run around bragging about this big mandate. Put on your mandate pants & pass whatever you want to do." (ppl sharing this w/o alt text - pls start using alt text!)

Research from 2022 that every Democrat apologist should chew on: “We do not find any evidence that accommodative strategies reduce radical right support. If anything, our results suggest that they lead to more voters defecting to the radical right.“ www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

Remember when the anti-vaxxers demanded “bodily autonomy” to choose whether to get vaccinated? Looks like that bodily autonomy only applies to them & not to people who want to get vaccinated, since they’re now trying to ban the COVID vaccine & any similar vaccine.🧵

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave. Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. 🤳🏽: (202) 224-3121

Republicans in Congress had the power to stop TrumpMusk from destroying the U.S. economy until they decided to declare that the rest of the year is a day... Seriously. That's what they use their power for: Not to save US but to change the calendar. youtu.be/xKDPrsMaZU8?...

He is lying. I was on Columbia's campus the day Johnson visited, April 24. The congressional delegation spoke from the steps of the Low Library, hundreds of feet from the pro-divestment encampment. No one could even hear Johnson– only press microphones. He was heckled. That's all.

How did Mahmoud Khalil become the first student targeted for deportation by the Trump administration? He showed up at a protest last week without a mask. "The guy was making it too easy for us," a pro-Israel activist who has been compiling a protester database told me. forward.com/news/703018/...

ICE can deport green card holders for engaging in and/or inciting terrorism. Trump will likely use this to justify the arrest of Mahmoud Khalil without a warrant They've chosen him as their first victim because the Dems are unlikely to defend him They're testing the water. They will do this again

This is a very important story. It is also important to understand that this is how ICE operates. They disappear people. Family members and lawyers often cannot get information from ICE about where inmates are located and they cannot contact them. It has been this way for a long time.
