(JEWISH GROUP) Trump allies target Jewish judge -- and his wife -- after ruling on Palestinian activist

Judge Jesse Furman, a Jewish federal judge who blocked the Trump administration’s attempt to deport a Palestinian activist, is now facing a wave of online attacks from far-right figures with massive followings.

The attacks are being led by commentator Laura Loomer, 31, a self-described “feisty Jewess” and “proud Islamophobe.” Loomer, who has 1.5 million followers on X and close ties to Trump’s inner circle, accused Furman and his wife Ariela Dubler of being “leftist Jews” who are as dangerous as “Jihadists.”

Dubler, a former Columbia Law professor, heads a prominent pluralistic Jewish day school in Manhattan, and serves on the board of trustees of Yale’s Joseph Slifka Center for Jewish Life.

The attacks against the judge are also coming from Charlie Kirk, the founder of the pro-Trump, youth-focused Turning Point USA, who has 4.8 million followers on X, as well as another account with half a million followers.

I am sure he will be hailed all over for his ruling.
