1/3 Resigning, a Hanukkah Message: As of today I have resigned from the antisemitism advisory committee at Harvard. Without rehashing all of the obvious reasons that have been endlessly adumbrated online, and with great respect for the members of the committee, the short explanation is that both events on campus and the painfully inadequate testimony reinforced the idea that I cannot make the sort of difference I had hoped.  Still, there are several points worth making. I believe Claudine Gay to be both a kind and thoughtful person.  Most of the students here wish only to get an education and a job, not prosecute ideological agendas, and there are many, many honorable, thoughtful and good people at the institution.  Harvard is still a repository of extraordinary minds and important research.

Taylor Swift's personal bodyguard just left to Israel to join his unit!

And before anyone makes a joke about how “another guy left Taylor Swift, so it must be time for her to write a song about it,” this guy is the man.

He just left his $500,000/year job and cushy lifestyle to return to Israel and join his unit as they prepare to fight the evil of Hamas!

Kol ha’kavod!

Kobe was so much more than an athlete, he was a family man. That was what we had most in common. I would hug his children like they were my own and he would embrace my kids like they were his. His baby girl Gigi was born on the same day as my youngest daughter Me’Arah.

This courtside moment between Kobe Bryant and daughter Gianna showed their loving bond

He was such an icon but also did so much for LA. He was passionate about serving the homeless and was an advocate for women's basketball. Coaching his daughter’s basketball team brought him so much happiness.

@AmericanAir I am rethinking whether I’ll ever fly American again. Is this how you treat someone who has been fiercely loyal to your airline with Gold status? That flight attendant should go through proper training and learn how to treat people with dignity and respect.

[Jessi Berrin @JEB918]

@AmericanAir I’ve never felt so discriminated against based on class as I felt today on an American Air domestic flight to MIA. One of the flight attendants treated me like a second class citizen when I tried to use restrooms in first class. It was inappropriate and shameful.

“I swore never to be silent whenever and wherever human beings endure suffering and humiliation. We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the
oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must interfere.” - Elie Wiesel

2 / Nevertheless @realDonaldTrump issued an absurd, insensitive & opportunistic statement by suggesting synagogue security could have averted the disaster instead of gun control when police officers were shot on the scene.

[Danielle Berrin @danielleberrin]

1 / Regarding the tragic synagogue shooting in Pittsburgh and the rush to politicize it, please remember that synagogues, Jewish centers and Jewish people have been targeted and attacked routinely throughout history. Antisemitism is not a phenomenon of the Trump era.

@USPSHelp I’ve been on hold for an hour and eighteen minutes and still no response to my customer service inquiry. I’m ready to hang up, but I need to speak to someone ASAP.

@MyFDOT_Miami I had one of the most traumatic experiences on Miami’s express lanes today. One of your orange poles flew up in the air and hit my car’s hood and windshield as I was passing Exit 16. Who can I speak to about this harrowing experience? @MyFDOT

Just interviewed a Darfurian refugee in Israel who was 14 and living in Egypt when he saw an Israeli professor discussing Jewish history and the Holocaust on TV. He immediately decided he would go to Israel, because what country would better understand him? #rememberwhoweare
