Lee Jae-myung, the South Korean politician who climbed the fence of the parliament to get inside and vote against martial law, has been elected president. Pretty cooool

The Israeli-backed group distributing food in Gaza closed its sites on Wednesday, a day after at least 27 Palestinians were killed when Israeli troops opened fire near one of the sites.

THESE AREAS HAVE SPECIAL ELECTIONS THIS YEAR. Please people, start researching and ensuring that you are still registered. We have GOT TO TURN OUT. ballotpedia.org/Special_elec...

We are heartbroken over the death of Jonathan Joss, and we call for a complete investigation into the disturbing reports of his shooting. We know the heaviness and fear that comes with seeing reports of anti-LGBTQ+ violence in your social media feeds. We feel it too. We are here with you.

"I think people understand that the white identity party is the white identity party, and vote on that understanding, even if they don’t necessarily understand or care about specific policies."

Happy pride month

You’re telling me the IDF saw Gazans with *guns* shooting and didn’t stop them? GTFO of here. What are we doing here. They died with bulletholes.

It’s all connected. That’s why solidarity is the only way.

I first learned of this horrific (erased) history from Ta-Nehisi Coates’ stunning essay, THE CASE FOR REPARATIONS. A decade later, shunned by the federal government, Tulsa courageously takes matters into its own hands. #restoregreenwood

Citigroup really said, “why couldn’t the Boulder anti-Semitic terrorist have used a gun instead!”

Somebody read her opinions on Indian Law!💙🖤🤎🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Gun restrictions work. This horrendous act could have been even worse.

A million years ago, this was a national scandal. Today, it is just an every day occurrence that we all tacitly accept.

BREAKING: Newark Mayor Ras Baraka has sued Alina Habba for malicious prosecution and false arrest.

When you value your elders rather than cast them aside, when you sit at their knees and learn from them rather than treat them as though they have expiration dates, you can achieve this type of thing. The Bus Boycott was 381 days. We did this in 7 mos.

I hope people get violently angry about what happened to Johnathon Joss. On the first day of Pride he was shot and killed by homophobes who burned down his house and killed his pets. They were openly bigoted towards him and the police didn't do anything to protect him even after facing violence.

Park Service cancels plan to close Dupont Circle Park during Pride After pushback from local officials, DC police say the park and fountain will remain open

Blatant homophobic attack by the federal government

The war crimes of Bibi’s government continues to be horrifying. Palestinians must have their own guaranteed access to food, water, electricity, safety, and movement. apple.news/AaecFhCy5S1G...

Pinning this for the folks who spent years yelling about one class at some school or some intemperate remark by a prof or students, and somehow couldn’t be arsed to learn enough about how universities work to understand that this was where the actual threat to higher ed came from

I can't shake the shock of the #JonathanJoss murder. Murdered for being gay. During Pride month. Now, more than ever, Magneto was right.

Some songs hit your spirit in such a real way that they feel like gospel - even if it's hood gospel. For Day 2 of the #BlackMusicMonthChallenge, share the song(s) that are basically negro spirituals for you.

The Target boycott has been incredibly effective. Together we're a force to be reckoned with.

Murdering a gay man for being gay on the first day of Pride Month is about the most America thing I can imagine. I wish I had the money to move away and never come back. I hate it here. #jonathanjoss

A reason I get so angry when people diminish stochastic terrorism's role in shaping our society is because when things like the campaign of terrorism & subsequent hate killing of Jonathan Joss happen we all instinctively acknowledge that it may not have were the perpetrators not emboldened.

(Reuters) - Staff of the Federal Emergency Management Agency were left baffled on Monday after the head of the U.S. disaster agency said during a briefing that he had not been aware the country has a hurricane season, according to four sources .. @reuters.com www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

BREAKING: The new head of FEMA told staff he did not know that the United States had a hurricane season. Yes, I am serious. www.reuters.com/world/us/fem...

It's really telling that on Medicare/Medicaid, Republicans will go after needy people, but have no interest in going after the companies committing the real fraud. Same with immigration, harsh crackdowns on people, but not a word on penelties for business or implementing e-verify

COOL!

You know who thinks guns *do* kill people? The mass murderers who try to buy them.

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor. He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down. The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him. This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies

I feel safer already.

They’re going to sacrifice our trans siblings because that’s a winning issue. This is why we practice solidarity in the LGBT community instead of voting to betray solidarity. Because now we have to fight and hope others who refused to vote for Kamala will protect us.

They abolished all our rights and disappeared our law-abiding neighbors for thought crimes and STILL they do not keep us safe from terrorism. Because they don’t care. They don’t care about protecting our Jewish brothers and sisters. It was all a pretext and a cudgel for fascism.

The lesson people infuriatingly never seem to master is that there is no creating a police state just for other people. If you create a police state with no due process for immigrants or accused criminals, then that's the system you've created for yourself.

I am furious about the news out of Colorado of Jews being lit on fire for the crime of calling for hostages to be released. I am furious at how dirtbag leftists on this website and elsewhere treat this as a game where violence against American Jews is justified if we aren't good tokens.
