  1. "The #Seattle Police Department will work with local #Jewish communities to ensure their safety during the #HighHolidays amid surging anti-Jewish violence nationwide, #KatieWilson, #mayor of Seattle, told JNS.
    “Seattle has no place for #antisemitism or hatred of any kind,” the mayor, who identifies as #socialist, told JNS.

    “I know Seattle’s Jewish community is acutely aware of a rise in antisemitism and is feeling anxiety and concern,” Wilson said. “I believe every Seattle resident needs to be able to participate fully in civic life without fear, and my office welcomes dialogue with the Jewish community for sharing what they need to improve safety.”

    Wilson’s comment to JNS appears to be the first time she has addressed #Jew-hatred in the city publicly since she became mayor in January.

    #RoshHashanah begins this year on Sept. 11 at night and lasts two days. #YomKippur, which lasts a day, begins on Sept. 20."

    As the Tuesday evening conversation wound down, panelist and YouTuber #EricMessersmith argued, “But on the Jewish thing, because he is Jewish, he might be the #Democrat that can thread the needle. Because even though he’s Jewish, he’s very critical of the #Israeli government, very critical of #BenjaminNetanyahu. He has credibility on that issue. So it’s possible—I think he could fill that lane in between the two extremes of the #DemocraticParty.”

    #Michaelson then wrapped up the discussion, “Yeah, as a #Jew, some people read a little more Jewish than other people, and John Ossoff may not read as Jewish as Josh Shapiro does[...]"
