If NY’s standard is no groups that engage in bias-motivated assaults, threats, and harassment, then it can’t be selectively enforced.
Same city. Same law.
Dharma is how I lead my life. It is the commitment to just, righteous actions that sustain harmony and uplift those around us. I believe we have a duty to serve a purpose greater than ourselves and to stand firmly on the side of truth. My husband and I are passing that belief down to our four kids.
It’s a value I see alive and well in our communities, but the tragedy is it’s missing in our politics.
I’m running for Congress - to bring truth and civility back to our politics and deliver results on the issues facing us all.
Please watch our video, share this post, and join us.
The US Constitution vests the power to declare war in Congress. No single individual has the authority to commit the nation to a war of regime change without congressional authorization.
Power cannot replace principle. Nor can the ends justify the means. In a constitutional republic, the rule of law must prevail over an act of raw military might.
History warns that wars of regime change—even when well-intentioned—can unleash unintended consequences that produce more instability than they prevent.
The Greenland ice cap is losing around 30 MILLION tonnes of ice an hour due to the climate crisis - 20% MORE than what scientists originally thought.

BREAKING: A 16-year-old Palestinian was shot in the head. Another man’s legs were hit with 12 bullets and amputated. Humanitarian aid worker killed.
Gaza’s Nasser Hospital shot up and set on fire with claims its “used by Hamas for terror.”
So why didn’t you get a breaking news alert?
Because it wasn’t Israel.
It was Hamas and Al Shabab (Fatah) fighting each other.
Exploiting the Museum and the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising to sanitize “globalize the intifada” is outrageous and especially offensive to survivors. Since 1987 Jews have been attacked and murdered under its banner. All leaders must condemn its use and the abuse of history.
The Islamic Republic of Iran is the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism, providing substantial support to proxies like Hamas—the perpetrators of the October 7th massacre. Most alarming of all, Iran is a threshold nuclear power with the stated goal of wiping Israel off the map.
Make no mistake: Israel is not the aggressor. It is defending itself against an existential threat that long predates the present preemptive strike. The true aggressor is the Islamic Republic and its empire of terror—an empire stained with the blood of innocent Israelis.
Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim were just murdered in cold blood.
These two young staffers from the Israeli Embassy were shot and killed outside a Jewish event in Washington, DC.
They had just left a humanitarian gathering at the Capital Jewish Museum—an event focused on turning pain into purpose. One of them had just bought a ring.
He was planning to propose next week in Jerusalem.
The shooter opened fire at close range. As he was arrested, he chanted, “Free Palestine.”
Let’s be clear: this wasn’t resistance. This wasn’t protest. This was cold-blooded murder.
And it didn’t happen in a war zone. It happened on the steps of a Jewish museum, in the capital of the United States, during an event centered on cross-faith cooperation and aid.
This is where we are.
Peaceful protest stops being peaceful the moment it gives cover to violent ideology—because violence always follows. If your rhetoric dehumanizes Jews, if your cause requires you to cheer for murder, if your silence excuses the killing of a young couple simply for being Israeli and Jewish—then your movement isn’t about justice. It’s about vengeance.
We are seeing a dangerous trend: the line between political cause and murderous hate is blurring—and too many people are letting it happen. They’re rationalizing it. Justifying it. Even glorifying it.
Don’t.
There is no cause that justifies walking up to innocent people and shooting them point blank. There is no context that makes this okay. There is no justice in hate.
This isn’t a post about policy. This is a post about basic human decency.
So if you believe in coexistence, in dignity, in compassion for all people—then now is the time to speak up. Not only against the murderers, but against the narratives that breed them. Against the movements that excuse them. Against the voices that fuel them.
Because when you normalize hate, this is where it leads.
May Yaron L. and Sarah Milgrim rest in peace.
