No, I don't. That's not a conservative ideology at all. That's a hateful rhetoric that's inconsistent with even the United States Constitution, not just inconsistent with the Republican Party, Lankford said. So no, that's not who we are. He continued: The Republican Party and conservatism has stood up for decades and decades for all individuals. If you want to trace back our lineage, it goes all the way back to George Washington,

Tensions over the Israel-Hamas war have spilled into schools around the U.S., with advocates reporting a rise in antisemitic harassment since the 2023 surprise attack on Israel. While some argue school leaders have failed to take the threat seriously, others warn criticism of Israel and the military campaign in Gaza are interpreted too often as hate speech. The Trump administration has not punished school systems the way it has hit colleges accused of tolerating antisemitism, but schools are still facing pressure to respond more aggressively.

No question, antisemitism is real, resurgent and too often conflated with criticism of the Israeli government as it has destroyed Gaza to root out Hamas. But it beggars belief that the Trump administration is sincere when it demands UCLA pay the government more than $1 billion because, as it alleges, the school failed to protect Jewish students during pro-Palestinian protests in 2024, and engages in diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) practices. This is extortion, pure and simple.

The Maccabi Tel Aviv midfielder Issouf Sissokho urged his teammates to make their supporters smile against Aston Villa, after away fans were banned from the politically charged Europa League match on Thursday. The Israeli club's fans were prohibited from attending on public safety grounds but, despite the ban, West Midlands police have been granted section 60 stop-and-search powers and plan to deploy more than 700 officers around Villa Park to cope with protests and potential unrest.

If Communist Candidate Zohran Mamdani wins the Election for Mayor of New York City, it is highly unlikely that I will be contributing Federal Funds, other than the very minimum as required, to my beloved first home, because of the fact that, as a Communist, this once great City has ZERO chance of success, or even survival! It can only get worse with a Communist at the helm, and I don't want to send, as President, good money after bad. It is my obligation to run the Nation, and it is my strong conviction that New York City will be a Complete and Total Economic and Social Disaster should Mamdani win, he wrote.

Last week, MAGA had a total anti-Indian meltdown on social media, revealing a deep, ugly racism toward South Asians. It comes amid the first real rebellion about rampant and increasingly open antisemitism within the MAGAverse, creating a massive rift between traditional conservatives and a younger, rabidly anti-Jewish contingent called groypers whose leader, Nick Fuentes, recently posted that he is "team Hitler."

Now if, like Musk's own children, you're not a member of the Elon fan club, you can probably imagine why Musk took on this project. Here's a man who purchased Twitter a few years ago specifically to refashion it into a neo-Nazi disinformation machine (check), insinuated himself with the second Trump administration so that he could hollow out the federal government (check), and designed electric cars that spontaneously combust, burning their liberal owners to death (check).

In July the University of Pennsylvania was the first to strike a deal, in its case to resolve a Title IX investigation. Penn agreed to erase former swimmer Lia Thomas, a transgender woman, from its record books; bar transgender athletes from future competition; and send personal apology letters "to each impacted female swimmer," among other concessions. In exchange, the Trump administration restored $175 million in federal research funding frozen amid the investigation.

"In the six months since he received this warning from one of the nation's leading organizations dedicated to fighting antisemitism [ADL], Dr. Wolfson has not only failed to address these concerns but has exacerbated them," Cassidy wrote. "Jewish faculty members deserve to carry out their work free from discrimination. As an association with a national presence, it is concerning that AFT has not only failed to help solve this problem but has made it worse by allowing Dr. Wolfson to continue to serve in a leadership role."

Bruce MacInnes was told by Tory party officials that his repeated allegation that Israel is committing genocide in Palestine constituted allegedly antisemitic, discriminatory and insensitive and highly offensive language, which resulted in his suspension from the party last year. MacInnes, who says he did not initially know about the disciplinary proceedings despite the party claiming they had emailed him, is bringing legal action against the party for 30,000 in the high court for breach of contract and discrimination based on belief.

Nick Fuentes, a 27-year-old white nationalist livestreamer, routinely uses his platform to deny the Holocaust, praise Adolf Hitler, denigrate women as "baby machines," and make wildly racist statements. Fuentes' abhorrent views have propelled him to far-right celebrity status, and he presides over a movement of "groypers"-young, highly online incels, neo-Nazis, and racist shitposters who follow him. Over the years, Fuentes has been crystal clear about his ultimate goal:

Party chief Peadar Tóibín 'shocked and disgusted' after bigoted posts from private chat exposed Aontú has sacked the leader of its youth wing and dismissed five other members after it learnt of the existence of ­secret WhatsApp groups where some Ógra Aontú members posted racist and antisemitic comments. The Sunday Independent has seen a collection of the inflammatory posts that led Aontú to dismiss six members of its youth wing from the party, while three others remain suspended pending further investigation.

He said: Mandami is a job-killing socialist, and he's not a Democrat, right? He shouldn't be in the Democratic Party. He's an admitted socialist. He should be in the Socialist Party. And as good of a campaign as he's run, I have very strong disagreements with his views, whether you're talking about government-run grocery stores, obviously his continued anti-Semitic rhetoric, refusal to condemn phrases like globalizing Intifada, which is a call for the killing of the Jewish people.

According to the newly released state report, Oakland Unified's investigation of the complaint - concluded in Aug. 2025 - found that while the district did not unfairly publicize Arab American Heritage month over Jewish Heritage Month, the district violated board policies by excluding Israel and using content from the Arab Resource and Organizing Center - an organization the district was aware could be considered antisemitic.

In this moment when our prayers have finally been realized, and the war appears to be ending after two grueling years, we now must focus on the aftermath. Unfortunately, there is deep concern that the systematic and widespread normalization of antisemitism that we saw over these past two years in the United States and around the globe will continue to live on.

Birmingham's safety advisory group is meeting next week and is expected to produce proposals about the extra resources West Midlands police would need to allow the match to go ahead safely with away fans. The force last week barred Maccabi Tel Aviv supporters from the match because of concerns that officers would not be able to police it safely. They cited violent clashes and hate crime offences at a Maccabi Tel Aviv match in Amsterdam in 2024.
