Some current and former ADL staffers say they’ve lost faith in their CEO. Praising Elon Musk for his “leadership” in fighting hate while casting pro-ceasefire Jewish protesters as “radical extremists” are just some of the reasons. My latest: vice.com/en/article/wxjkzm/a…

views here are my own, of course, but i’m not sure how you can claim to be a moral authority against antisemitism when you thank a guy who endorsed an explicitly antisemitic version of the “great replacement” less than two days ago

A senior researcher at the @ADL named Stephen C. Rea resigned from the organization today. "I couldn't square my morals and politics with the direction I saw the org going in," he wrote.

A lot of discussion among those reporting on the far right in recent yrs abt whether ADL should be cited/quoted in stories, precisely because of statements like these — comparing leftist Jews to Nazis — which draw a false equivalency that is both discrediting & beyond the pale
Replying to @JGreenblattADL
We long have said that these are hate groups, the photo inverse of white supremacists. More here: adl.org/resources/blog/jewis…

The last words the jury heard before the prosecutors rested their case - Defendant Elmer Rhodes saying: “We should have brought rifles. We could have fixed it right then & there. I’d hang f**king Pelosi from the lamppost.” In the courtroom, you could have heard a firing pin drop. – at Washington, DC

I always love it when file metadata makes an appearance in one of our stories - here is some excellent investigative work from @CreedeNewton . Also big thank you to @dhosterman who made this work easier with solid data engineering and a snappy user interface.
