Happy is maybe not the right word given the subject but I'm something like happy to share that I'm working on my next book, on Holocaust remembrance in pop culture, politics, and foreign policy and on how it impacts them and is in turn impacted by them, for @BloomsburyAcad.

In Harrisburg, @elonmusk hands a million dollar check to a voter chosen at random from co-signers of his “free speech and right to bear arms” petition. He promises to do this each day up until Election Day. “Thanks Elon this is really great,” the winner says.

"By the age of 14, he had survived the Holocaust; by 44, he was an Israeli diplomat; now, at the age of 94, Theodor Meron recommended the ICC seek arrest warrants of Israeli and Hamas leaders for war crimes and crimes against humanity"
This 94-year-old Holocaust survivor recommended arrest warrants for Israeli and Hamas leaders

The viral JD Vance clip in which he's asked what makes you smile and lashes out at the reporter is amazing because 1 he botched the answer but 2 lol a man being told to smile more.

I will write about this at greater length elsewhere but—and this does not excuse any antisemitism at protests—the idea that students are motivated by hatred of Jews as opposed to hatred of what they're reading in the news each day is pretty deliberately obtuse.

I'm hearing disturbing reports that students face suspension if they don’t end their peaceful protests in #Columbiauniversity in the USA. This is a clear violation of their right to peaceful assembly

So interesting to me that people replying to this with "she could go off script!" didn't seem to have that concern about Republicans speaking at the DNC.

Thank goodness the DNC is keeping this inflammatory and damaging rhetoric off the convention floor.

"ADL president Jonathan Greenblatt also let CBS know that it was “insensitive” to reprimand Dokoupil – who is Jewish – on Oct. 7, the first anniversary of the Hamas attack on Israel." Okay...what are we doing here.

SCOOP: During yesterday's mandatory CBS News staff meeting, anchor Tony Dokoupil defiantly admitted that he flouted the network's editorial practices during his Ta-Nahesi Coates interview, acknowledging that he ignored the show's vetting process. zeteo.com/p/cbs-tony-dok…

"Greenblatt, head of the ADL, has stressed repeatedly that he is concerned about rising antisemitism. Unfortunately, he has also made clear that he cares about antisemitism only as he defines it and as it affects people who agree with him" By me @Slate

The Anti-Defamation League Has Become a Threat to Jewish Safety

I think personally that reiterating that she’d called for a ceasefire and would work to bring one about should she be elected would be more effective and on message than snapping at protesters.

Actually you can warn against authoritarianism and deplore political violence. The one doesn’t endorse or excuse the other.
