The more I think about this, the sadder this becomes. This isn't a sukkah. It's not beneath an open sky and doesn't have palm-frond roofing. Those requirements are so basic to the sukkah that they're basically its definition. This is a prop sukkah for a prop Judaism that's now…

The JVP Sukkah is actually under a tree I kid you not 🤣

The Sholem-Aleichem Cultural Center in the Bronx was vandalized with "Free Palestine" graffiti. A Yiddish language cultural center, it's not a Zionist-related institution by a longshot.

My family has been taken to Gaza. We don't know their medical condition, we know that if my uncle isn't released soon he could die, he has a degenerative disease and needs treatment. They are European citizens. I need anyone with any contacts to get in touch with me ASAP.

Remember the 9th Circuit order a few weeks ago calling for supplemental briefing on the original meaning of several phrases from the 2nd Am., with instructions to discuss what the corpus data has to say? A thread. 1/

A very touching portrait of Reuven, the editor of @DerVeker, and his thoughts on the Covid pandemic in the Hasidic community. (With a tiny quote by me.)

I recently met a man who is anguished about his community + COVID. His neighbors are generous and warm, but refuse to wear masks. Leaders have largely been defiant. This story could take place anywhere in the U.S. But Reuven is a Hasidic Jew in BK.(1/x) theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
