Solidarity with Michael Ben-Gad, Professor of Economics at City University. Students are demanding his sacking simply because he is an Israeli Jew who has done (mandatory) military service. The antisemitic harassment he is being subjected to is horrifying. I hesitate to amplify…

That was the Village People

Trump surrounded himself at his rallies with everyday Americans, coal miners, police officers, teachers, factory workers. Why only politicians and billionaires for the inauguration?

Ed is right & I’d go one further: there is something worrying about the fury being heaped on someone trying to explain the motives of people who have done wrong. Very few people intend to be bad. They are all heroes in their own stories. We have to understand *their* motivations.
