This arrest is the latest in an alarming pattern to stifle civil liberties. The Trump admin is targeting students with legal status and ripping people out of their communities without due process. This is an attack on our Constitution and basic freedoms — and we will push back.
A Tufts University PhD student on a visa was arrested by immigration authorities outside of Boston on Tuesday night, according to the school and the student's lawyer. abcnews.link/JbC834N

This is a horrifying violation of Rumeysa's constitutional rights to due process and free speech. She must be immediately released. And we won't stand by while the Trump Administration continues to abduct students with legal status and attack our fundamental freedoms.
Tufts student Rumeysa Ozturk was detained by ICE. A video shared with GBH News shows a man in a hoodie approach her, then grab her wrists. Ozturk screams, then asks “Can I call the police?” before being told “We’re the police.” wgbh.org/news/local/2025-03-… @sweetadelinevt @GBHNews

Trump sent masked law enforcement officers to arrest Rumeysa Ozturk—a Tufts University grad student with legal status—without a criminal charge. Disappearances like these are part of Trump’s all-out assault on our basic freedoms. This is authoritarianism, and we will not let this stand.

Latest from me: I wrote this about the Anti-Defamation League's claim to "speak for the Jewish community." In actuality, they have always spoke for a particularly affluent, assimilated part of the Jewish community specifically to counter the Jewish left.🧵 maiseh-review.ghost.io/the-a…

One of the dancers at the Super Bowl halftime show unfurled a Palestinian and a Sudanese flag, before being arrested. The Super Bowl is the most watched televised event of the year in the US.

This essay is dedicated to the folks who are devastated by Trump's ascent but who have refused to contend with US-Israeli genocide. Defeating fascism at home means confronting empire abroad. #Thread of excerpts bostonreview.net/articles/th…

The Israeli government will never stop until we make them with an arms embargo.
🚨BREAKING: In a new violation of the ceasefire, two Palestinians were killed in an Israeli artillery strike targeting a group of civilians in the Tel Al-Sultan neighborhood, west of Rafah in southern Gaza.

The Israeli apartheid regime is continuing to kill Palestinian children in Gaza and the West Bank. Palestinians have been so dehumanized that it hasn’t even made headlines. The ethnic cleansing has not ended. They will never stop until there’s an arms embargo.

Yesterday, we watched in horror as Elon Musk — who has a history of promoting antisemitic conspiracy theories and making racist remarks— repeatedly did a Nazi salute at a rally following Donald Trump’s inauguration.

Replying to @ADL @elonmusk
19 year old student says 'Free Palestine' Antisemitic! Musk backs Germany's AfD and antisemitic replacement theories. Buys Twitter so Nazis load at the top. Sieg Heils multiple times. Give him the benefit of the doubt! The @ADL has one job. But @JGreenblattADL can't do it.

When college students protest to end genocide, the ADL calls for militarized police across campuses. When the richest man in the world gives a nazi salute on national television, they tell everyone to calm down. The ADL may not care about the safety of our communities, but we do. Our movements aren't going anywhere. We keep us safe.
This is a delicate moment. It’s a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety. It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge. In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath. This is a new beginning. Let’s hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead.

This MLK Day also marks the inauguration of what promises to be the most racist, authoritarian, violent, antisemitic, corrupt administration in a century, doubly harming Black Jews who face the intersecting threat of racism and antisemitism. Today, we are thinking about Dr. King’s “triple evils” and the need for the “revolution of values” he called for in the final years of his life.
