  6. "#Antisemitism in our seven countries is no longer a surge; it is our new normal,” the organization said in a statement. “Governments must stop reacting after #Jews are attacked and start acting before, with real #securityfunding, stronger laws and #socialmedia platforms that enforce their own rules.”

    Fifteen Jews were #murdered at a #Hanukkah celebration on #BondiBeach in #Sydney, two were #killed at #HeatonPark #Synagogue in #Manchester on #YomKippur, two were killed at the Capital #Jewish Museum in #WashingtonDC, and one was killed in #Boulder, #Colorado.

    The figure was the highest since 1994, when 85 people — including 67 Jews — were killed in the #AMIA #bombing in #Argentina."

  12. One of the very most absurd and offensive things that the trump administration has yet done in its destructive reign is surely its Domestic Policy Council (truly a think-tank of historical scholars...) reviewing the work done by the Smithsonian Institution chronicling history over its nearly 200 years of existence and finding it to be "inaccurate" and in need of disclaimers, warnings, and alterations.

    Here is a group of people with the collective intellectual wattage of a wet match attempting to protect the country from "inaccurate" telling of America's history.

    If there is a group of individuals anywhere assembled that is less qualified to project their fallacious notions of history upon the Smithsonian (and America), I would like to see it!
