@TweeterReynolds Time will prove you @DUALIPA and so many other wrong. Trust me. Things are going to change and your eyes will be opened. It could be embarrassing for some. Not me though!
In Buddhism we understand that every action comes with a consequence. Due to my decision to stand up for my Jewish friends I am losing a few people from my life. Today I parted company with Tony Pontius who has run my record label BGP for a number of years. I wanted to release 'We Will Dance Again' but he was unequivocal and said 'I want nothing to do with this song' and I responded 'ok, we are done'.
When someone is gutless it really does not hurt to say goodbye. My faith in humanity will not diminish and the truth will always win.
I will release it!
@BarfSoupMemes@DovySimuMMA@BlessedMMA DC is wealthy. You’re acting like these two are UFC millionaires confused about why Joe Schmo doesn’t want to join their surf trip, and not why two UFC champs wanted a third UFC champ to join them
@antifastats@nypost No, unlike marriages, you can get divorced in any state that has personal jurisdiction over you. So he could have gotten divorced in CA as long as he lived there.
@treycarpenter00@johnrivers131 Don’t say anything back. Don’t speak to them. Anything you say can and will be used against you and will make it likelier that you are arrested. If they were actually going to arrest you they would have done it by now. You did not make a cognizable threat and are still under 1A
In Rotterdam pro-Pals disrupted a Holocaust memorial service at the Jewish Children’s Wall. Good to see Dutch police assertively removing these DESPICABLE ghouls.
Last Sunday afternoon we did a tour through Friedrichshain for the American Women’s Club (@awcberlin) and came very close to losing one of the participants to Berghain. Luckily she was spotted trying to blend in with the crowd and we managed to get her away in time 😅
@A_Literal_Ng@peta@MELobsterFest It's killing the chicken, that's what happens when you hit its head very hard. How is this different than other forms of animal slaughter lmao.
Hier seht ihr eine Szene, bei der wir Iraner immer wieder weinen.
Verzweifelt versucht die Menge, die Hinrichtung dieses jungen Mannes zu verhindern – oder ihn diesen letzten Weg wenigstens nicht allein gehen zu lassen.
Und was tut er? Als letzte Geste formt er mit seinen Händen ein Herz, um sich mit Brüdern und Schwestern zu verbinden und ihnen zu sagen:
„Habt keine Angst. Mir geht es gut. Ich habe euch.“ 🫶🏼
Das Regime hat versucht, die großartige iranische Nation zu brechen. Doch stattdessen hat es seinen größten Albtraum erschaffen: eine Nation, die jede Blume, die sie verliert, in ihr Herz schließt, ihre Opfer niemals vergisst und ihren Kampf weiterträgt.
Dieses Volk wird siegen. 🦁☀️
Und wenn der Iran frei ist, werdet auch ihr in Europa erkennen, was eure Freiheit wirklich wert ist – und wie haarscharf ihr davor wart, sie zu verlieren.

When I was a lawyer at Gibson Dunn in D.C., we took our summer associates to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum. A survivor spoke to us and said something that stuck with me:
Lawyers need to know the holocaust did not begin with camps. It began when Jews were removed from institutions - above all, legal institutions. Judges stripped of their robes. Lawyers disbarred. Then, when law-groups were Judenrein, they codified laws that made discrimination systematic and "legal."
First, you remove the Jews from the institutions. Then, Jews can be discriminated against without representation.
On Monday, Mayor Mamdani announced his 18-member Advisory Committee on the Judiciary. The Committee was promised to be "truly reflective of New York City."
Not one of the 18 is Jewish.
Not one Jewish attorney, former judge, or law professor - in a city where one in eight residents is Jewish and even Justice John Leventhal, recommended by the State's Chief Judge, was rejected.
It is estimated that over 50% of the New York bar is Jewish. That means there is a 0.0004% chance of no Jews being selected to the Committee.
Mamdani’s marginalization of Jews has been ongoing, and few voices on the Left have spoken up.
On Day 1, Mamdani revoked the IHRA antisemitism definition (top priority); he changed the NYPD guidance protecting houses of worship, eliminated Jews from the City's immigrant-heritage map, called for the arrest of the prime minister of the only Jewish state, and now created a Judenrein Judiciary Committee.
My grandmother, Leah, survived Nazi Germany. Before the laws, before the violence, she told me how she was pushed out of her high school groups. Then, once excluded from all activities, she was bullied and marginalized.
We are already seeing Step 2 in NYC. Two weeks ago, on a Jewish Holiday, two men were stabbed outside Upper West Side synagogues - one wearing a kippah- and yesterday, Jewish students were attacked. Every 26 hours, there is a hate crime against Jews in NYC.
In NYC, there is a concerted effort to disappear Jews from public life and leadership.
No one on the Left is speaking out. If this discrimination was happening to any other group, the chorus would be deafening.
To be clear, Jews will find a way. Many are already taking their talents elsewhere. When white-shoe firms shut Jewish lawyers out, they built firms that now dominate. Cardozo, Louis Marshall, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg all found a way despite discrimination.
But NYC will be worse off without us. A city government that is judenrein - cleansed of Jews – does not just hurt the Jews, but hurts the city.
The tragedy is not just that Jews were left out of the institutions. It is that the institutions were left without the Jews.
If you see this and have not yet spoken out, I encourage you to do so.
