Remember every accusation is a confession: “Several Palestinians and soldiers told the AP that Israeli troops are systematically forcing Palestinians to act as human shields in Gaza, sending them into buildings and tunnels to check for explosives or militants.”

Israel murdered this sweet baby today.

Liberals are calling students engaging in hunger strikes to pressure their universities to divest from Israel “performative.” They really have lost the plot. Anything to protect the Zionist state & the US’s support of it. Incidentally public collective action is performative—that’s the entire point.

there is an entire group of people whose response to college students accusing them of being bad people was to work very hard to elect a fascist to tear down all of American society the college students were right about them

I was a college student who took econ classes and believed in market-based solutions and means-tested programs, and 20 years later, the GOP has convinced me that we need confiscatory income and wealth taxation

When you see the humanity in everyone, it’s a lot of people, so you end up having to prioritize your sympathy, and those who commit and support genocide kind of filter out. It’s win-win.

Reverend Raphael Warnock in 2018. Imagine if we had this kind of energy from him in the Senate today. "It's wrong to shoot down God’s children like they don’t matter at all. And it’s no more anti-semitic for me to say that than it is anti-white for me to say that Black Lives Matter."

Alaa is constantly getting deleted on here despite having many friends and posting about a wide variety of topics. Here are her twins with a World Food Programme Box saying they are not magicians or spam. chuffed.org/project/1252...

Watching the US and Israel exterminate Palestinians and not being able to do anything to stop it is beyond unbearable. I am an extremely privileged and lucky human being with no right to center my feelings but I’m so distraught all the time it feels difficult to breathe.

Remember that when tides turn, it’s not because people develop a conscience. It’s because they realize they will now lose more than they will gain.

Watching establishment Dems continue to ignore the effect that US armament of genocide & free speech repression has on Dem-leaning voters is such a f*cking catastrophe. They rolled out the red carpet for a 2020 Trump, & now they're rolling out the red carpet for whatever fascist comes after Trump.

Woke up to a bunch of clearly coordinated spam saying Palestine was invented in the 20th century and I must work for Hamas, because I published article suggesting you might want to buy olive oil from Palestine. Here's that article again, go buy some olive oil! www.eater.com/24430125/bes...

Palestinians in Gaza are saying their goodbyes. Israel is relentlessly bombing and starving them at the same time. I will never forgive those who stayed silent for 19 months.

“On one hand, they applaud the school’s efforts in standing up against the Trump administration, but on the other they have to grapple with how Harvard’s new policies and decisions have disproportionately harmed them.” capitalbnews.org/harvard-univ...

Monumental assholes.

"More than 21 million eligible voters don't have documents that prove their citizenship readily available." - Juan Proaño, CEO of LULAC, on the SAVE Act www.brennancenter.org/our-work/ana...

This is exactly what Democrats will do in 2028--blame Trump's win solely on Biden's refusal to drop out of the race. They won't mention the genocide or the party's increasingly rightwing policies (unpopular with voters), & will erase Harris's role in Trump's re-election so they can run her again.

EVERY cop who participates is guilty of federal crimes & international crimes against humanity. These are capital crimes. These are fascist crimes on behalf of Nazi Russian agents running a criminal regime. EVERYONE who collaborates & follows orders is guilty, & EVERYONE guilty will be punished.

Mahmoud Khalil’s letter to his newborn, who he has not yet met because of his political imprisonment: “The grief your mother and I feel is but one drop in a sea of sorrow that Palestinian families have drowned in for generations.”

If you do nothing else this Mother’s Day, please donate to Dr. Jomaa and her family if you’re able.

I’ve never wished so hard for a rumor to be true than the rumor that Trump and Netanyahu had a falling out and Trump is considering recognizing a Palestinian state.

Happy Mother’s Day. We just spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to kidnap a woman in front of her terrified screaming teenaged daughter, whom we also paid to have bodily flung to the ground.

NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — New Jersey mayor is arrested at ICE detention center where he was protesting its opening, acting US attorney says.

Fuck Bernie Sanders. My god. What a monster.

Slave patrollers. Gestapo. That’s what they are. Kidnappers. Disappearers.

ICE arrested Newark Mayor Ras Baraka for allegedly trespassing at the facility. #AbolitionICE

There’s no coming back from this.

Columbia public safety officers are the gestapo.

Dr. Hayden has been such a transformative and inspiring Librarian for the past decade. If you haven't had the privilege to spend time with LC staff, you may not realize what a sea change she brought to our national library. One of the all-time greats. A huge loss for millions and millions.

I’m loving seeing how many Black people not only know who Shah Rukh Khan is, but how offended they are on his behalf.

May we never be forgiven for what we have done. "...the US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity."

I watch this every single time I come across it.

This is what a South Carolina board of ed member thinks about the books they just banned statewide. He can't get the sex scenes out of his mind. I wonder why. www.postandcourier.com/education-la...
