I had the honor of seeing the Columbia University anti-war encampment firsthand.

Contrary to right-wing attacks, these students are joyfully protesting for peace and an end to the genocide taking place in Gaza.

I’m in awe of their bravery and courage.

Wow—Former spokesperson for hostage families says Hamas offered to immediately release all hostages if IDF didn't invade Gaza 'but the government rejected the proposal.'
Says families weren't notified about invasion + risks it could pose.
'Netanyahu has thwarted' hostage release.

Unarmed, middle-aged, female philosophy professors? What is happening in America right now? Imagine if you saw these scenes in Iran or Venezuela, imagine then the U.S. media response.

🌞 Today was an exciting morning as we toured our community solar garden on the roof of Shiloh International Ministries with Minnesota's 5th district Representative, Ilhan Omar!

Incredible news! Congratulations to MFT 59 teachers.

Now the fight continues for the ESP chapter as they continue to work towards an agreement.

Solidarity ✊🏽❤️

2100+ academics from around the world have signed on to a boycott of Columbia & Barnard.

'We, the undersigned, stand in solidarity with members of the Columbia University community demanding that the University divest from Israel’s US-backed genocide in Gaza and the West Bank.'

First Congressperson to visit a student anti-war encampment: Ilhan Omar.

Sen. Sanders’ family was killed in the Holocaust. He dedicates his every moment to realizing tikkun olam.

His commitment to protecting innocents in Gaza stems FROM his Jewish values.

He and many other Jewish leaders deserve better than to be treated this way. This is shameful.

This rampant Islamophobia is unacceptable. My sister Ilhan Omar is standing up with the students peacefully demanding a Ceasefire to end the bombing, starving, and killing of Palestinian people. No amount of hatred is going to stop this movement for peace.

Jake Sherman Just a heads up: this is not the Columbia campus, evidenced by the street in the background.

There are horrific people wandering outside, their virulent antisemitism is disgusting and must be rejected at all costs - but this is not the Columbia protest. Important to distinguish.

This is NOT what vile antisemitism looks like. The media is not being fair and even handed about the Columbia campus protests.

Happy Earth Day! This morning, U.S. Representative Ilhan Omar and Hennepin County Commissioner Angela Conley discussed a zero-waste future while they toured Better Futures and Tortilleria La Perla in Minneapolis.

She stands up for working people in Congress and we are proud to endorse Ilhan Omar!

You love to see it. Congratulations Summer Lee 💪🏽

The Supreme Court has lost the public's trust and is in desperate need of reform.

That’s why I was proud to introduce a bill to create an Office of the Inspector General to investigate misconduct.

Let’s bring accountability and transparency to the Supreme Court.
