CUNY has an anti-Semitism problem – and they don’t care. For years, CUNY Law has been a hotbed of Jew-hating activity, culminating in back-to-back commencement addresses from student-chosen speakers who proudly declared their hatred for the Jewish state. Recently, four Jewish professors have been retaliated against for complaining that their professional environment is hostile to their Zionism. Now, CUNY has hired someone who openly said to a United Nations panel that he wants “a free Palestine, from the River to the Sea.”

This past week, NYS Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani and State Senator Kristen Gonzalez hosted a town hall to discuss their legislation that aims to prohibit New York registered charities from funding Israeli organizations operating in Judea and Samaria. Hosted in what is quickly becoming a hub of anti-Semitic activism – CUNY Law – the town hall aimed to discuss the Not On Our Dime Act, a Radical Left piece of legislation.

Once the foremost authority on the prevention of anti-Semitism in the country, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has become a joke to anyone to the ideological right of Bernie Sanders. For years, the ADL has undermined its own credibility by becoming another tool in the Left’s political arsenal under the leadership of CEO Jonathan Greenblatt. This time, they’ve stepped on one too many toes in their quest to cleanse the world of dissenting opinions, and they’ve gotten on the radar of the richest man in the world.

For those who watch politics and culture long enough, a certain trend emerges over time. Politics is like a pendulum swinging back and forth, left to right. Every time it seems like one side of the spectrum is dominating, the pendulum begins to swing back until the other side is on top. For the past decade, New York City has been firmly and squarely on the left side of the pendulum, but the signs are beginning to indicate a shift rightward.

Our beautiful residential Eastern Queens neighborhood now has a massive migrant tent city om the Creedmoor Psychiatric Hospital grounds. It was erected in the SNAP Senior Center parking lot on Hillside Ave in Bellerose, directly across the street from PS18 Winchester Elementary School, and a playground, a ballfield, and the Cross Island YMCA. This is where the city is housing 1,000 unvetted single male migrants.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas made international news this week when a speech he gave went viral on social media. His remarks claim that Jews were persecuted during the Holocaust because of “their social role, which had to do with usury, money, and so on,” as opposed to just because they were Jewish. The video drew ire from nearly everyone with a social media account. Yet there is a valuable lesson to be gained from this. Stop saying the phrase “two-state solution.”
