It is now beyond clear that antisemitism on campuses is systematic and wide spread. What we’re witnessing on campuses and in our cities isn’t a grassroots movement but a highly orchestrated effort led by professional organizations like American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) and their brainchild organization Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP). Some of the individuals running these groups have previously worked for organizations linked to Hamas and terrorism, such as the Holyland Foundation, Kindhearts, and Islamic Association for Palestine. It’s time that AMP and SJP are investigated by the FBI and banned from college campuses everywhere.
Many of you are asking for sources. For best and most thorough information here is former treasury department terrorism financing expert @jonathan.schanzer’s full testimony at the @waysandmeansgop in congress 2 weeks ago. ⬇️

Washington DC trip Pt 2
The White House was spectacular. It felt like a movie set. Like a toy store. Primary colors everywhere. Christmas trees at every turn. We were welcomed with a live band playing beautiful traditional Jewish songs. There was a room with a working train set, and a choir singing Yiddish songs. It was festive and bustling with 700 people. The highlight was the powerful and deeply moving speech by @potus, and Descendants of Holocaust survivors lighting the candles on the new, and permanent, WH menorah. @rabbibuchdahl, my rabbi from NY, was chosen to say the prayers, which made it all the more special. The echos of everyone singing along in unison was beautiful.
The most moving moment~ seeing a menorah from the kibbutz massacre. It was from a house that had been burnt down. It survived unscathed. And had a place of honor in the White House. The hostages that are still in captivity were never out of mind. (I leave for a mission to Israel in a few days to meet the families of the hostages, injured IDF soldiers, survivors of the Nova Festival and to go to the Gaza border. I’ll post from there.)
Thank you @potus and @drbiden for a Hanukkah celebration to remember.

What a whirlwind. Thank you @vp and @secondgentleman for a beautiful evening. Bringing our community together, in a safe space, with our music, and yummy foods aplenty, was a gift to all of us. We are in pain, but we are resilient. That is the story of Hanukkah. 2100 years ago (before the birth of Jesus) a powerful Empire tried to wipe out the Jewish people, but with a tiny army to defend our people and our right to exist, we prevailed against an existential threat. And we won back our sacred Temple of Solomon in Jerusalem( yes, that’s right) which had been destroyed in the battle, but a candle was lit, with enough oil for one night, and miraculously it lasted 8.
To my Jewish brothers and sisters, we have been here before. For 3000 years we have been hunted down, by countless empires, and we have prevailed. It’s truly a miracle.
To all the non- Jewish friends who stand with our right to have self- determination, supporting our right to exist, and to live peacefully with people of every faith in our ancestral indigenous land, means everything to us.
May light always drive out the dark.
May there be peace.

The world lost a giant.
Norman Lear, after 101 blessed years of life, has brought his light to the angels. Norman was a beautiful soul. Funny, joyful, magnanimous, ferocious, brilliant, empathic, a visionary who changed the world with his art. He showed us that comedy was the most effective way to open people’s closed hearts. To make acceptance and tolerance a virtue. He saw the power and the beauty of our differences and confronted our biases with unapologetic directness. Racism, sexism. and bigotry was revealed in his stories, all the while making us laugh. He forced us to look inward and mine for our truths, and hold ourselves accountable. And slowly, magically, he shifted the world on its axis.
Norman was warm, familial, a mensch; excited about his work, still planning his next TV show. He was loved by all. He saw us. He loved us. And he celebrated what is true in all of us. There will never be another Norman Lear, but how lucky are we that there was one.
Sending love and gratitude to his family and friends for sharing him with us.
Fly with the angels, dear Norman
❤️

World renowned Historian @yuval_noah_harari details the real reason Hamas terrorists attacked Israel in such a barbaric way on October 7.
I pray that peace agreement is still viable.
