A “Day of Hate” is being planned for this Shabbos by a group of Neo-Nazi antisemites. It was first reported by the Chicago Police Department to its local Jewish community, and now authorities in New York and Florida are warning their Jewish communities to be vigilant.
Last month, an anti-Semitic group based in Iowa designated Feb. 25 as a “day of hate,” and other white supremacist and hate groups have since said they plan to participate, according to David Goldenberg, the Midwest regional director of the Anti-Defamation League. One of the organizations behind the plot if the Goyim Defense League (GDL).
Chicago police have been urging Jewish communities to be extra vigilant. “At this time, there is no actionable intelligence,” the department said in a statement. “We continue to actively monitor the situation.”
The NYPD has now also released a similar notice to the Chicago PD, warning New York Jewish communities to be extremely vigilant and report any suspicious activity.
In addition, the O-U has sent a message to its network of shuls, encouraging them to be vigilant and stay in contact with local law enforcement to request enhanced security. They said they have been in contact with the DHS and FBI about the threats.

A week after all the liberal congregations in the US had their "We love unrestricted abortion on demand!" Shabbos programs. Gotta wonder.
