‘Incredibly chilling’: Advocacy groups raise alarm over Trump’s demand for list of Jewish faculty at Penn​


Jewish groups are raising alarms over a judge’s ruling this week that the University of Pennsylvania must turn over contact information for Jewish faculty and organizations on campus to the Trump administration.

While the Trump administration says the information will assist in an antisemitism investigation into the university, some Jewish advocates argue the government has used their community to advance attacks and policies against higher education to restrict free speech on campuses.


Judge Gerald Pappert, appointed by former President Obama, ruled Tuesday that the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has the constitutional right to collect the contact information of Jewish faculty from the university and balked at suggestions there was a safety issue with the request.

“Comparing the EEOC’s investigation into antisemitism at Penn with Nazi Germany is counterproductive, as counsel acknowledged by attempting to backtrack from such analogies,” Pappert wrote.

The school has until May 1 to turn over the information, but it does not have to include an individual’s membership with specific Jewish organizations.

Members of the Jewish community say they have lost trust in the White House’s intentions over the past year.

“At the top of everyone’s mind is that this administration, no matter what they say, has no plan to prevent or end antisemitism whatsoever. Its policies actively harm Jewish people by using our legitimate fears of antisemitism and our legitimate need for reassurances for safety as a smoke screen to advance unpopular anti-democratic policies exactly like this,” said Eli Williams-Szenes, director of advocacy and political affairs for Bend the Arc Jewish Action.


Williams-Szenes pointed to policies such as the Trump administration screening foreign students’ social media accounts before approving visas as evidence of its impure motives.

The administration has also arrested and is attempting to deport multiple students who engaged in pro-Palestinians protests or activism since 2024.

The Trump White House, Williams-Szenes says, is “constantly investigating and creating practical and legal boundaries for students who have anything to say other than exactly what this administration thinks is the only acceptable thing to say about the actions of the State of Israel.” Anyone who disagrees, he added, are characterized as “actively engaged in dangerous antisemitism that poses a threat to their Jewish neighbors, colleagues.”

The administration has made accusations of antisemitism its weapon of choice against colleges and universities, freezing billions of dollars in federal funding that was only later released under judges’ orders or once a particular school agreed to policy changes.

Trump admitted he is easily seduced by bad people when they are nice to him. He couldn't care less; he would fight to the end for them. To normal people this kind of talk should be even more alarming than Trump caught on camera saying, "I'm not Christian".
but his supporters/followers simply dismiss any of his asinine ramblings...was talking to one of them yesterday and I was joking about tRump talking like biden with his slurring of words and stumbling pronunciations, and he said, ´not even close, tRump is way more cognitive than biden...they will support/defend him to the end...

In a post on his social media site Truth Social, US President Donald Trump says that the US can "easily" open the Strait of Hormuz "with a little more time" .

He wrote: "With a little more time, we can easily OPEN THE HORMUZ STRAIT, TAKE THE OIL, & MAKE A FORTUNE. IT WOULD BE A 'GUSHER' FOR THE WORLD???"
 
he said, ´not even close, tRump is way more cognitive than biden
That obviously isn't true, but even if it was, it still isn't saying much. No doubt Trump is in decline.

Think about this. Barrack Obama was last president 10 years ago. He is still only 64 years old. Fifteen years younger than Trump. Bill Clinton was president 26 years ago. He is now 79 years old. Same age as Trump is now. I will never understand how we as a people decided two guys this old, Biden and Trump, were the ones to lead our country. I have met plenty of eighty plus year olds that were still sharp and with it. I have yet to meet an eighty plus year old that was as sharp as they were when they were younger and not a single one of them would I want to be president.
 
In Jan 2025, he said Elon Musk was going the balance the budget with DOGE finding fraud.

On 2/2/25 he said tariffs would balance the budget.

On 6/2 he said OBBB would balance the budget.

On 6/12 he said Trump Cards would balance the budget.

Now he says Vance will do it.

How are these people different from Stephen Miller or Pete Hegseth?


Oooohhhhhhhhh
 
NEW: For the first time in modern history, the Pentagon offered no Good Friday services for Catholics.

While Catholics don't celebrate Mass on Good Friday, they do venerate the cross of Jesus Christ and receive the Eucharist.

Earlier this year, Pete Hegseth invited his pastor to speak at the Pentagon. That pastor has called for banning public expressions of Catholicism in the United States.

 
NEW: A growing number of Republicans are now splitting with the Trump administration over the firing of Gen. Randy George. Some expressing shock or dismay over his firing, and others outright demanding explanation or an investigation.

This, as the President's approval rating plummets to 33%, according to a new UMass Amherst poll.
 
The bitter irony.
They got rid of qualified minorities under the claim of "DEI lowering standards."
But they are now doing the real lowering of federal worker standards to put incompetent loyalists in.
..... something... something... something....Merit Based .....hahahahah


Many educated Govt workers supporting ending DEI voted for Trump only to have him fire them..and wave the education requirements and replace the. With uneducated MAGA loyalist


Ultimate screw job

I know there are other threads but since this is here it’s interesting to note CREC which is what Kegseth claims are true Christian Nationalists. They do not believe Catholics are Christians.

Side note. I believe 7 of the 9 Supreme Court Justices and all 6 “conservatives” are Catholic. And at least 4 of the 6 are from a particularly conservative theology Opus Dei.

Look for Trump’s comments on the Supreme Court to gain a different kind of traction if CN gains a stronger foothold. Not the Paula White/Franklin Graham influence, but more CREC.

Trump seeks ‘mammoth’ amount for even more White House renovations

 
A new memo from the Justice Department says President Donald Trump no longer has to follow a Watergate-era law barring him from holding on to presidential records when he leaves office.

It is the latest action by the administration to stymie transparency, government watchdog groups say, and yet another Trump swipe at the National Archives after its role in prompting the criminal case he faced for allegedly mishandling national defense materials. https://cnn.it/4m9VddS
