On the day before Halloween, Kevin Roberts, the president of the Heritage Foundation, released a horror film of his own. Roberts stared into the camera, American flag on his lapel, and cast in his lot with Tucker Carlson, whom he called "a close friend" of the storied think tank. Hours earlier, Carlson had interviewed Nick Fuentes, king of the white nationalist groyper army, without pressing him on his most radical statements about the merits of Adolf Hitler and killing "perfidious Jews.

FBI Director Kash Patel raised eyebrows with a remark he made during a press conference on the arrest of pipe-bombing suspect Brian Cole. He said that when you attack our nation's Capitol, you attack the very being of our way of life. And this FBI and this Department of Justice stand here to tell you that we will always refute it and combat it.

Penn has worked diligently to combat antisemitism and protect Jewish life on campus. We have cooperated extensively with the EEOC, providing over 100 documents, totaling nearly 900 pages; however, we have not turned over to the government lists of Jewish employees, Jewish student employees and those associated with Jewish organizations, or their personal contact information. Violating their privacy and trust is antithetical to ensuring Penn's Jewish community feels protected and safe, a Penn spokesperson said.

France's government is taking action against Elon Musk's artificial intelligence chatbot Grok after it generated French-language posts that questioned the use of gas chambers at Auschwitz and listed Jewish public figures.

Five days a week, thousands of fans gather online to watch Nick Fuentes hold court about the dangers of non-white immigration, feminism and organized Jewry. Usually dressed in a dark suit and tie, he lectures to his far-right followers, known as Groypers, about what he argues is the insufficient radicalism of Donald Trump's Republican party and what he describes as the perfidies of the state of Israel and its American supporters.

Investigators at San Jose State University are calling in the FBI about graffiti on campus threatening a mass shooting. The university doesn't believe there's a credible threat but given what's happened lately, students are understandably alarmed. San Jose State's provost says someone found the graffiti Tuesday in an academic building. It included antisemitic and racist slurs. The campus police department is trying to identify the person who made the graffiti. There will be extra officers on campus in the coming days.

When you have top podcasters saying Jewish Americans are disloyal, saying Trump is controlled by Jews, saying Jews need to self deport to Israel, Gen Z glorifying Hitler and doing Seig Hiels all over Tik Tok, @TuckerCarlson infiltrating movements to say the people who killed Jesus killed Charlie Kirk at Charlie's memorial, and acceptance of videos portraying Jews as cockroaches,

demanded that comedian Seth Meyers get fired from his late-night television show. But he had nothing bad to say about two people roiling his party: white nationalist Nick Fuentes and conservative commentator Tucker Carlson. The former Fox News host recently hosted Fuentes for a friendly interview, where he declined to challenge his guest's bigoted beliefs or a remark about problems with "organized Jewry in America."
