Haaretz asked me to reflect on my time covering Joe Lieberman's 2004 run for president and the impact a national Jewish candidate had on the community.

May his memory be a blessing.

I lived in DC for nearly 30 years. The idea that crime is rampant and there is an emergency on the streets that necessitates federal law enforcement is complete BS!

[Matt Berger 🟦 @BergerMatt]

Great perspective from Rebecca Dinar about how the Jewish community must move beyond its current reactive posture and be creative and proactive in imagining future challenges and developing programs and resources to meet those needs.

An urgent message that every non-Jew, especially progressives, needs to hear right now, from my friend and colleague @SheilaKatz1.

That is exactly what happened today. We must not let antisemitism go unchallenged.

May the memories of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim be a blessing.

I am absolutely heartbroken by the heinous attacks at the @CapJewishMuseum last night.

Last year, I spoke on a panel on antisemitism at that museum and said the real threat of antisemitic rhetoric is that it will be seen as a justification for violence against Jews anywhere.

Take 7 min and listen to @JonahPlatt’s perspective on celebrating Passover with intentionality this year. It will change how you think about the plagues and the idea of “Next year in Jerusalem.” Or, listen to the whole thing and his chat with @DaraHorn. https://t.co/VNY288cv0G

Congrats to former NBC News embed @LlamasNBC on being named anchor of NBC Nightly News. Tom was a great source of wisdom for me when I went on the campaign trail four years after him and am so excited to see what he will do in this important role.

I am so grateful to call Alice Nderitu a friend and colleague and immensely proud that she is speaking out against the way she was mistreated and pressured to classify Israel's action in Gaza as a genocide.

@kampeas How Sephardic of you

[Matt Berger 🟦 @BergerMatt]

I've worked closely with UN Special Advisor Alice Nderitu over the last year as part of the @EradicateHate_ Sports Working Group and have been moved by her depth of knowledge, dedication & care.

This decision by the UN is really disheartening.

This is disgusting antisemitism intended to intimidate Jews:

Hundreds of posters depicting Jewish faculty members as “wanted” were plastered across the University of Rochester campus on Sunday night https://t.co/5wc9UuxJiX

[Matt Berger 🟦 @BergerMatt]

We need to use data to inform messaging against antisemitism - not just say what makes us feel good.

Great advice from @BelleYoeli @HenMazzig @AvivaKlompas at @jfederations General Assembly.

[President Biden Archived @POTUS46Archive]

The Antisemitic attacks on Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam are despicable and echo dark moments in history when Jews were persecuted.

We've been in touch with Israeli and Dutch officials and appreciate Dutch authorities’ commitment to holding the perpetrators accountable.

We must relentlessly fight Antisemitism, wherever it emerges.

[Ted Deutch, CEO of American Jewish Committee @AJCCEO]

Human beings were hunted down on the streets of a Western European capital tonight because they are Israelis. Because they’re Jews.

This violent anti-Zionism is antisemitism. Normalizing calls for the destruction of Israel puts Jews in the Netherlands and the US and around the world ALL at risk.

@BergerMatt Thai tonight

Yankees are heading to the World Series. Soto does it for this NY/DC guy again.

@hgil But they’d bring mockups of a newspaper to Arlington at 2am

“It’s so similar to coming out and the fear of being rejected. But now it’s being rejected by the people we escaped to, and that’s the heartbreaking part about it.”
