[Haaretz Opinion] Don't Let Trump Use Antisemitism to Withhold Visas From Palestinians Bigoted government actions against Palestinians are the result of Trump's use of antisemitism as a smokescreen for his repressive, discriminatory, dehumanizing anti-Palestinian, anti-Arab, anti-Muslim...

Denying Palestinians their visas is wrong, and blaming Jews for your own racism is gross.

Absolutely incredible video of a woman standing up to ICE. This is resistance

This proposed N.J. law could label Israeli human rights groups antisemitic | Opinion Jewish organizations have been calling out the dangerous threat N.J.'s IRHA bill poses on free speech and Jewish safety overall.

The Trump definition of antisemitism essentially blames Jews for the erosion of civil liberties. It is wrong for New Jersey

NJ Jews Demand: Protect Free Speech, Reject A3558 Jews oppose restricting free speech in the false name of fighting antisemitism. Add your name to our petition — NJ Jews Demand: Protect Free speech, reject A3558

Tell NJ’s legislature, no erosion of democracy in our name!

Looking at you, A3558

If you see ICE in New Jersey, please call one of these numbers. #speakout #noICE #reportICEincidents #standup #resist @atnj.org @crindivisible.bsky.social @indivisibleac.bsky.social

The IHRA is a deceptive attempt to stifle free speech in the name of Jewish safety, ultimately blaming Jews for the erosion of a free and open democracy. It is dangerous, and actually makes our community much less safe. Contact your state reps NOW and tell them to vote no!

The astoundingly cruel budget bill has passed the Senate.

Our fight continues.

Bend the Arc: Jewish Action Responds to Trump’s Muslim and Africa Travel Ban Trump’s attacks on our democracy don't make Jews safer; they put us in more danger.

"Bend the Arc: Jewish Action refuses to allow the Trump administration to bogusly claim that his authoritarian policies on travel and immigration have anything to do with keeping Jews safe."

Our response to recent attacks at American Jewish gatherings Jewish safety means safety for Jews we agree with and those we disagree with.

"Jewish safety means safety for Jews we agree with and those we disagree with. It means safety for Palestinians. It means we see the safe return of all hostages. It means safety for our neighbors. It means safety for all people."

June 14th, Join us, our friends at @crindivisible.bsky.social, and many others as we march against fascist buffoonery!

Spoiler alert: turns out the administration filled with people who like to seig heil on national television is not serious about combating antisemitism

If you are stopped by Trump's ICE goons, or any other kind of cops:

I INVOKE MY RIGHTS TO SILENCE AND COUNSEL AND WILL NOT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS WITHOUT MY ATTORNEY PRESENT.

Memorize it.

And don't let ICE in without a JUDICIAL warrant. No, administrative warrants don't count.

To my newborn son: I am absent not out of apathy, but conviction | Mahmoud Khalil Deen, the grief I feel being apart from you is one drop in a sea of sorrow Palestinian families have drowned in for generations

A heartbreaking read

Thank you, @rasjbaraka.bsky.social, for bravely standing up for your constituents and our Democracy

Bend The Arc: Jewish Action CEO Responds to Delay in Antisemitism Awareness Act Champions in Congress are working to prevent Trump from getting even more tools to enact his plan for authoritarian rule

Here's some more information. It is being billed as the "Antisemitism Awareness Act", which is intentional deception to hide its real agenda.

Thank you for your support. Please tell us this means we can count on your NO vote on S.558, the “Jews Killed Jesus” bill

Pentagon removes web pages about Holocaust remembrance to comply with Trump DEI order Content takedowns come as administration has made combating antisemitism a major focus

Fun party trick! If you take a flashlight to the ear of a person who admits to believing the Trump/Musk regime actually considers fighting antisemitism is a "priority", it will shine out the other side.
