No, if anyone is hurt it is a result of the students/paid agitators who have been breaking the law and engaged in antisemitism for weeks. Rather than cheering them on, you should have called for them to listen to administrators and follow the law.
If any kid is hurt tonight, responsibility will fall on the mayor and univ presidents.
Other leaders and schools have found a safe, de-escalatory path. This is the opposite of leadership and endangers public safety. A nightmare in the making.

Stop trying to make fetch happen. It’s not going to happen.
Take some personal responsibility for the fact that your party is a chaos factory. You asked for a GOP majority, and this is what we get with one.
If you want Dems to bail you out so badly, try talking. Line’s open! 📞

Last night, after getting home, Julianna got so excited when I walked in the door and said “DaDa” for the first time! What an awesome feeling — the most important and rewarding title I will ever have.

How about you cancel the $6 billion deal with Iran — the biggest state sponsor of terrorism and a driving force behind Hamas’ attack on Israel.
We’ve canceled $127 billion in student debt for nearly 3.6 million Americans.
It’s a big deal.

Oh no!
@MarkRuffalo
is angry.
Shame on you for the work you did Rep. Mike Lawler, the lies you have told, and the harm your work has done to the world. Your work has been shameful. I’m glad we beat you here on your push for fracking in NY.

It is absolutely disgusting that the
@nycDSA
is holding a rally celebrating the murderous rampage of Hamas terrorists through Israel. They went door to door indiscriminately butchering men, women, and children - and these fringe lunatics stand in solidarity with these murderers.

Today’s vote to remove
@SpeakerMcCarthy
was a disgrace and undermined the institution and the important work of our country. That Matt Gaetz relied on House Dems to remove the Republican Speaker is an abomination. Good luck to future candidates for Speaker.

Congratulations to my good friend and mentor
@RepBlakeMoore
on becoming the conference Vice Chair. He’s a giant among men and will be a strong voice in leadership!

It was a sham - an incomplete investigation that was prematurely cancelled. Everything should be turned over to federal & state authorities. Grand juries should be convened and charges brought against Andrew Cuomo. The blood money book deal and nursing home scandal were criminal.
Republican Senate Minority Leader Robert Ortt on the report, says it's a "profile in cowardice"

It is often said the most dangerous place in Washington or New York is between
@SenSchumer
and a microphone. Sadly, at a time when New Yorkers and Jewish Americans needed his voice to be the loudest, he has been unconscionably timid about the antisemitic protests. Sad!

As I have said repeatedly, there is only one person who is undermining the Republican conference for his own personal and political purposes. He’s pushing for a shutdown to remove the Speaker. It’s absolutely disgusting and should be universally condemned by Rs and Ds.
SCOOP: Rep. Gaetz is privately pitching some House Dems to help him oust McCarthy from the speakership.
“He’s been talking to everybody about it,” Jayapal told us.“I told him in our caucus, in the Progressive Caucus, we’re not planning to save McCarthy...

If
@GovKathyHochul
had any political courage, she would not only veto the ridiculous $32,000 pay raise, she would have called us back for a special session to deal with the disastrous cashless bail. Instead, it’s business as usual in Albany. Merry Christmas!🎄🎁

I’m proud to have helped end Nancy Pelosi’s reign as Speaker of the House. Enjoy her endorsement
@MondaireJones
— it didn’t help you when you ran in New York City last year and it won’t help you in the Hudson Valley next year.
Honored to be endorsed by Speaker Pelosi! Last term, Democrats rescued the economy from collapse, capped drug costs for seniors and passed gun reforms. By contrast, Mike Lawler’s MAGA Republicans can barely keep the lights on. Democrats must retake the House to continue our work.

Bang up job by everyone who voted to remove
@SpeakerMcCarthy
with no plan in place.
NEW: House lawmakers are scrambling to determine whether Patrick McHenry can participate in a Gang of 8 briefing on Israel. A source involved in the discussions said it is up to WH who can participate, but emphasized how untested the entire situation is given status of House

I mean to be fair to
@melissadderosa
and
@NYGovCuomo
maybe there is another Dr. Michael Osterholm. After all it is a very common name and they all seem to be experts in epidemiology.
#Disaster
In a call with lawmakers, a top Cuomo aide called Dr. Michael Osterholm a “chief advisor” who spoke to the governor on a "regular basis."
Osterholm counters this claim on
@FiringLineShow
:
“I've had one five-minute conversation my entire life with Governor Cuomo," he says.
