Students at The New School in NYC have voted to suspend funding for the campus Hillel chapter.
To be clear: Hillel is a place for Jewish students to gather, celebrate Shabbat and holidays, and connect to their identity.
This is a revolting act of bigotry. It’s discrimination against Jewish students, plain and simple.
Believe it or not, this was a security success fundamentally, no one dead, guy caught. Now let’s harden our schools and let’s do the real work of gun control, background checks and mental health support to really prevent these people from turning to guns.
As a person who has done an enormous number of larger than average events at the Hilton over the decades of my career, there is a helluva lot of Monday morning quarterbacking here. The First Ladies lunch, the national prayer breakfast, countless inaugural
Be a full security meeting prior too with all the details? There likely was but it not, there should be. Minor changes. This was not a security lapse from the hard side of things (who knows about the guy or if he was catchable before he entered the hotel)
Details. Could they have locked down the hotel closer to the elevator and mag guests closer to the doors - which is both a question of flow and of tolerance. But before you judge this - remember two very valid points
@GovernorVA not great look for Richmond DMV that they authenticate foreign born birth certificates issued by the Commonwealth of Virginia. & instead send foreign born citizens to USCIS when they have nothing to do wi/bc. Maybe the left hand should talk to the right in Richmond.
Let’s guess how many certificates of foreign birth are sent in for authentication versus those of people US born. And then let’s see the discrimination. @GovernorVA
@GovernorVA please explain why a state issued certificate of foreign birth issued by the commonwealth isn’t acceptable ID for the Commonwealth ‘s DMV. Discrimination and stupidity. Oh, the state issued adoption papers mean nothing either.
@GovernorVA about 45 minutes on the phone with Richmond DMV. No one can tell me why one birth certificate needs to be authenticated when another doesn't. Everyone keeps saying I need to go to USCIS. But, I am a little familiar with the Accuracy for Adoptee Act. I know better.
@GovernorVA please explain why a state issued certificate of foreign birth issued by the commonwealth isn’t acceptable ID for the Commonwealth ‘s DMV. Discrimination and stupidity. Oh, the state issued adoption papers mean nothing either.
@SpanbergerForVA how is it the commonwealth of Virginia DMV doesn’t recognize a foreign born birth certificate issued by the Commonwealth of Virginia for a state Identification card in the Commonwealth of Virginia. Discrimination against adoptees and all foreign born children.
