A comprehensive, balanced @kampeas.bsky.social profile of an organization that, under attack by a Christian nationalist administration, has scrapped its 110-year mission and shrunk its goal to defending Israel . . . which AIPAC already has covered. In the Trump era, what's the point of the ADL?

The removal took place after FBI Director Kash Patel said he would cut ties with the ADL, though it is unclear if that has happened.

It’s blindness but it can also be a means of survival. You’re right in that it’s a result of a conversation, or the absence of one.

It’s a Goldilocks field of sorts, with one candidate a stalwart backer of Israel, another deeply hostile, and the third seemingly in the middle.
