I want to start by reminding everyone that @rweingarten, the leader of the American Federation of Teachers, initially promised to look into these claims of antisemitism, but after having a conversation with the Chicago Teacher's Union President, Stacy Davis Gates, she told us she does not believe Stacy is antisemitic. While this could be true, @CTULocal1 has a significant antisemitism problem and possibly even bigger issues on its hands...
Recently, @CTULocal1 signed off and participated in a protest to "Stop the Trump Agenda." This protest took place in downtown Chicago on Inauguration Day, 1/20/25. They didn't just sign off on the poster; they bragged about being there in a post. This is the same protest where one of the speakers praised the "Palestinian Resistance," which to many is known as Hamas.
I am unsure if @CTULocal1, their president @stacydavisgates, or any CTU member who attended knew what they signed the CTU name onto, but I know they did not do their due diligence.
Here is the flyer with their LOGO on it.
USPCN, the United States Palestinian Community Network, was the leading organization in this protest. One of the co-founders of this organization is Hatem Abudayyeh; another, according to their own admission, is Rasmea Odeh.
Rasmea was the associate director of the Arab American Action Network, another group that signed on to this protest. Hatem is currently listed as their Executive Director.
"Rasmea Yousef Odeh (in Arabic رسمية يوسف عودة; born 1948), also known as Rasmea Yousef, Rasmieh Steve, and Rasmieh Joseph Steve,[3] is a Palestinian Jordanian and former American citizen who was a member of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) convicted by Israeli military courts for involvement in a 1969 Jerusalem supermarket bombing which killed two young civilians. She was sentenced to life in prison and spent 10 years there before being released in a 1980 prisoner exchange with the PFLP.[4] After her release to Jordan, she immigrated in 1990 to the United States, became a U.S. citizen, and served as associate director at the Arab American Action Network in Chicago, Illinois."
Rasmea was deported from the United States in 2017 for lying to US immigration in her visa and citizenship application. "In his ruling, [Judge Gershwin] Drain said evidence showed the Palestinian native illegally obtained US citizenship by failing to disclose her conviction for the fatal 1969 bombings in Jerusalem."
"Odeh supporter Hatem Abudayyeh condemned the judge’s rulings and the case as a whole.
'Since both defense motions challenged how Drain conducted the trial, it came as no surprise,” Hatem Abudayyeh of the Rasmea Defense Committee said in a statement. 'We know that the conviction was a travesty of justice, and that Judge Drain’s rulings made it impossible for the jury to give Rasmea a fair shake.'"
Here, Rasmea Odeh and Hatem Abudayyeh are together.

Meanwhile, in Chicago, the United States Palestinian Community Network with the @CTULocal1 Chicago Teachers Union is leading a protest where they praise Hamas and boycott @realDonaldTrump.
These are the people leading the next generation. https://t.co/OQmwXjnrUK
Hatem Abudayyeh met with the first-ever Columbian Socialist President, Gustavo Petro.
Petro is a former member of the terror group FARC.
Here, they are pictured together.
The FBI had previously investigated Hatem for possible links to PFLP, FARC, and Hamas.
Hatem denies these claims today and reminds people that the FBI found nothing. His home was raided, and his bank accounts were frozen. While this was happening, he was invited to the White House under the Obama administration.

Lo que deben saber sobre Hatem Abudayyeh, Americano de padres Palestinos, que recientemente tuvo reunión con el Presidente Gustavo Petro en Chicago.
A lawsuit in Florida against Hatem Abudayyeh's organization, USPCN, and others was dropped in Florida for links to terrorism in May of 2024, according to former FBI agent @JGuandolo54271.

The connections of USPCN members and Rasmea Odeh do not stop with Hatem Abudayyeh. Co-Chair Husam Marajda was a friend and firm defender of her.
USPCN member Nick Sous, who you can find behind a megaphone at other protests, was also a staunch defender of Odeh.
Pictured below are Nick and Husam together at the Depaul encampments.

This group is also known for "boycotting" or harassing Jewish entertainers like Michael Rappaport and Matisyahu.
They successfully shut down Michael Rapaport's first event and Matisyahu's.
However, Rapaport recently came back and performed at the Vic Theatre. USPCN "boycotted" outside.
Watch here:
They even harassed people while leaving the show.
Watch Here:
These are a few examples of the many times they have harrassed "Zionists" around the city of Chicago.

As Josh Weiner of @ChiJewishAllies and others try to leave the Vic Theatre after the @MichaelRapaport show in Chicago they are surrounded by pro-Hamas protesters from all sides.
