We deeply appreciate this statement. We need leaders from across society to join the @WhiteHouse in condemning this antisemitism. Words are an important start; what's needed now is action from leadership @Columbia, @Yale and other campuses to stop this harassment before it leads to violence. #NotOnMyCampus
.@WhiteHouse statement on protests at @Columbia:
“Calls for violence and physical intimidation targeting Jewish students and the Jewish community are blatantly antisemitic, unconscionable, and dangerous –they have absolutely no place on any college campus, or anywhere in the US”

It was a pleasure to join @GeoffRBennett and @NewsHour tonight to discuss the new trial date and scheduling order in the classified documents case against Donald Trump.
The federal judge overseeing the classified documents case against Donald Trump has set a trial date for May 2024.
@GeoffRBennett spoke to @JessicaARoth1 to learn more. to.pbs.org/3MzB3rB

New York City has lost a champion and a civic giant with the passing of Dick Ravitch. I am deeply grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Dick and learn from him. His passion for public service inspired me and so many others. We will miss you, Dick.

Sen. @RonWyden's dedication to protecting software developers & digital privacy rights is the main reason we ever had a chance to fix the infrastructure bill. He went to bat for us out of real personal passion. No matter what happens next, he's a true champion. Thank you Senator!
If the infrastructure bill is the first time you are learning about Senator Wyden check out this 1996 speech where he argues for a hands off, market-based approach to crypto (which stands for cryptography). He's a national treasure. c-span.org/video/?72893-1/on…
