From “Perfect Victims” by Mohammed El-Kurd.

Mahmoud Khalil has been quietly sent 1000+ miles away to a Louisiana ICE facility. Note this ACLU/RFK Human Rights report from *just months ago* on ICE detention in LA — "Inside the Black Hole: Systemic Human Rights Abuses Against Immigrants Detained & Disappeared in Louisiana"

There are approximately 6K unionized workers at Columbia, including 3K grad/undergrad student workers. The university’s repression of anti-genocide protests has directly led to the Trump regime’s seizure of Mahmoud Khalil. It cannot be business as usual. It’s time to strike.

Unionized grad student workers at Columbia have taken on the administration before, and won. This is an existential fight, and if their union leadership isn’t already on board, then the workers should start talking wildcat, or sick out, or something else—creativity is a weapon

First they came for the Palestinian activist. As trade unionists, you’ve read the poem. Don’t wait to find out who’s next.

This isn’t just about First Amendment rights & citizenship. By smearing anyone who advocates for Palestinian rights as a “Hamas operative,” the Trump Admin is teaming up with pro-Israel groups like the ADL & AIPAC to make the entire pro-Palestine movement toxic & untouchable.🧵

From March 15–16, the University of Arizona will host the 2025 Tucson Festival of Books sponsored by Raytheon, one of the world’s largest arms manufacturers, and an active facilitator of the genocide in Gaza.

BREAKING: New lawsuit filed by Mahmoud Khalil and multiple students towards Columbia University and Barnard College. This lawsuit accuses Columbia of illegally sharing student discipline records with Congress and other third parties.

🚨 In another act of repression, Columbia reportedly expelled the president of the Student Union. It is clear that this is in relation to the Union’s consistent and moral stance on Palestine.

Last week, I was expelled from Columbia University for protesting the U.S.-backed genocide in Gaza. As president of Student Workers of Columbia , Columbia’s student workers union, I was also fired from my job. The Trump administration is pushing their narrative. Here’s the real story. 🧵

🚨BREAKING: ISRAEL RESUMES WAR ON GAZA Israeli Prime Minister’s Office: “Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz have instructed the military to take forceful action against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.” Medical sources in northern Gaza have

🚨BREAKING— After more than two weeks of Israel intentionally denying any entry of aid into Gaza now heavy bombardment on the strip. It is past 2:00 a.m. local.

The sole silver lining of Trump's presidency is that it has confirmed that the American president has the ability to control Israel's actions when it wants to, and very easily. The White House's decision to allow these massacres is its own.

Israel's massacre of Gaza last night was 1 of the biggest single day death tolls over the past 17 months: 404 killed—the majority of them children. According to Dr. Zaher Al-Wahidi, Dir. of Information Unit at Ministry of Health in Gaza: 174 children 89 women 32 elderly 109 men

For Mondoweiss, I wrote about Mahmoud Khalil's case and the dangerous trends I've been witnessing in advocating for him as in what Mohammed El-Kurd describes through "singularity." mondoweiss.net/2025/03/mahmou…

Completing the new Anti Discrimination training module, mandatory for all Columbia University faculty, staff, and students. If not completed, you lose access to university systems. "Signing inflammatory petitions" is listed as an example of discriminatory harassment. 🧵

truly heartbreaking.

Who made this controversial anti discrimination training? Columbia University’s Office of Institutional Equity, known as OIE. Drop Site reported how OIE has targeted Palestinian students & anyone critical of the Israeli occupation. dropsitenews.com/p/columbia-uni…

Proud to have co-written this statement with Labor for Palestine & National Students for Justice in Palestine, in support of Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions-Gaza’s #MayDay2025 call to urge U.S. unions to “go beyond statements and speeches and create real pressure”—including “general strikes...
