This is open bigotry targeting New York’s first Muslim mayor, who won with the support of thousands of Jewish voters.
The ADL has no such initiative regarding the Trump Administration, which employs extremists with ties to antisemitism. It even took down its “Glossary of Extremism” to appease them.

Trump keeps saying “all of the Arab nations, Muslim nations have agreed” to his Gaza plan, but they have not.
The statement by key Muslim countries welcomes his “efforts” but avoids accepting the plan as written, while—rightly in my view—reiterating positions incompatible with some of its terms.

A record 27 Senators—most of the Democratic caucus—just voted to block new arms sales to Israel.
It’s a new high water mark for holding Israel accountable in Congress, mirroring rising voter sentiment against subsidizing and arming Israeli violations of US and international law.
