Read our statement responding to reports that the president is sending California National Guard troops to Oregon.

We are quickly assessing our options and preparing to take legal action.

We’ll continue to share updates as we have them.

"At the foundation of our civil liberties lies the principle that denies to government officials an exceptional position before the law and which subjects them to the same rules of conduct that are commands to the citizen."

New piece.

The data presented by @thejcpa.bsky.social and @counterhate.com about antisemitism on X is stark: it is being spread to hundreds of millions of people.

Not just antisemitism, but OVERT antisemitism. And that shift means far more than people realize. It won't be long before it leaves X.
Overt Anti-Jewish Hate is On the Verge of Going Mainstream
The combination of mainstreamed conspiracy theories and overt hate on X is close to transforming America's relationship with Jews.

Most Israelis are hoping against hope Trump forces Netanyahu and that Hamas accepts. They might not want the war to end for the same reason as most of the West, but they really really want it to end.

It was my privilege to be on this panel at the Eradicate Hate Global Summit. We have a big problem with hate, but we don’t have to solve it all at once. Big solutions are hard, but small kindnesses are within our grasp & small things can add up to something big. www.post-gazette.com/local/city/2...

The damage to the U.S. vaccination program that is about to be caused by RFK Jr. and his fellow fraudsters misusing data to falsely claim that the COVID19 vaccine caused the deaths of 25 children will be incalculable.

These people are committing scientific misconduct of the most grievous kind.

Very bad news, if not unexpected. The independence of the FTC, and probably all independent federal agencies, is over.

Jonathan Kanter on the lack of an effective remedy for Google’s monopoly power. A real missed opportunity not only to address abuses by Google, but to take a clear stand that attempts to harm competition and consumers won’t be permitted or tolerated. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/07/o...
