This is an alarming escalation of Trump's repeated attacks on Rep. Omar, Muslim and Somali communities, and women of color. For years, his gross rhetoric has contributed to death threats and even deadly violence. And now a pre-dawn raid on a sitting member of Congress. There is no justification.

Appalling. Weaponizing the state to target a political opponent, weeks before an election, is nothing but a authoritarian tactic by a desperate administration.

We wish we could say we were surprised, but this is textbook fascist behavior.

Our Jewish community stands with @repilhan.bsky.social

Don't mistake the flippant anti-Muslim bigotry and laughter for just another Trump ramble. This is the MAGA electoral strategy. Trump is desperate, and all he's got are lazy, racist attempts to divide us from each other. Our strategy is solidarity. And we will win.

The MAGA movement is making an unprecedented effort to undermine our free and democratic elections. Our job as Jews and allies is to vote and be ready to help our neighbors vote without fear of interference. RSVP for this webinar next week to learn how to be prepared:

Today we mourn.

Today, American Jews join our neighbors in mourning over a thousand Israelis and others killed and taken from their families by the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. Today, we join our neighbors in mourning tens of thousands of Palestinians and others killed and taken from their families by the Israeli state. Killing that continues today.Today, we remember our spiritual decree that everyone on this earth is made in the divine image, b’tzelem elohim, with each life equivalent to the life of an entire world, kol ham’kayem nefesh achat, k’ilu kiyam olam malei.

And today, tomorrow, and every day that follows comes the work of staying together with our fellow American Jews, our loved ones of all faiths and none, and each and every neighbor who believes in the sanctity of every life and wants to fight for it.

Learn more about Salah Sarsour's case in our video from earlier this year.

@bendthearc.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 5:57 PM

Protecting free speech is essential to protecting our democracy, and our democracy keeps Jews — and all of us — safe. Deporting beloved community leaders does not. Our Jewish community stands with Salah Sarsour and all our immigrant neighbors targeted by this administration's cruelty.

How does Simchat Torah provide a model for fighting authoritarianism?

“Democracy, like our sacred text, is not a destination you arrive at. It is a continuous cycle of renewal, protection, and action.”

“For years, we’ve pushed government officials to approach antisemitism with this kind of rigor,” said Bend the Arc CEO Jamie Beran. "This is exactly what it looks like when a leader listens.”

Thank you @mayor.nyc.gov for listening and responding to our Jewish community’s concerns and working on tangible solutions that combat antisemitism — and make all of us safer.

This is what a multifaith, multiracial democracy can look like at its best: where leaders hear us and communities know we are safest in solidarity with each other.
