The attack at a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney today was a vile act of antisemitic terror. I mourn those who were murdered and will be keeping their families, the Jewish community, and the Chabad movement in my prayers. May the memories of all those killed be a blessing. While we are still waiting for all the facts to emerge, what we already know is devastating. At least 11 dead, including Rabbi Eli Schlanger, who held deep ties to Crown Heights. At least 29 injured. Another Jewish community plunged into mourning and loss, a holiday of light so painfully reduced to a day of darkness. This attack is merely the latest, most horrifying iteration in a growing pattern of violence targeted at Jewish people across the world. Too many no longer feel safe to be themselves, to express their faith publicly, to worship in their synagogues without armed security stationed outside. What happened at Bondi is what many Jewish people fear will happen in their communities too. On Bondi Beach today, as men with long guns targeted innocents, another man ran towards the gunfire and disarmed a shooter. Tonight, as Jewish New Yorkers light menorahs and usher in a first night of Hanukkah clouded by grief, let us look to his example and confront hatred with the urgency and action it demands. When I am Mayor, I will work every day to keep Jewish New Yorkers safeβon our streets, our subways, at shul, in every moment of every day. Let this be a purpose shared by every New Yorker, and let us banish this horrific violence to the past.

www.nytimes.com/2025/04/15/o.... This is a fascinating read.
Itβs going to be okay not because the world will suddenly become just, but because history proves that even in the darkest times, people find ways to love, to create, to fight, and to endure. Empires have risen and crumbled, movements have been crushed and reborn, but the pulse of those who refuse to surrender to despair, to hatred, to silence κ· has never stopped. If you are here, breathing, bearing witness, holding onto even the smallest ember of hope, then you are part of that unbroken lineage. No single moment, no single leader, no single election is the sum of what we are or what we can be.
We don't know who wrote this but it resonates. Keep holding on to that ember of hope. Goodnight friends. Get some rest. We rise to fight again tomorrow.

Yes - this is happening
(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraineβs sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.
In Colorado, we support freedom, and we will not cater to a brutal Russian dictator who is no friend to America, our interests, or our future. America plays a crucial role in supporting our international allies and protecting democracy abroad; Colorado continues to stand with Ukraine.
