Israel's Prime Minister may think no one will notice what he's doing in Gaza while he bombs Iran. People face starvation. 55,000 killed. Aid workers and doctors turned away at the border. Shooting at innocent people desperate for food. The world sees you, Benjamin Netanyahu.

A group of activists who hurt no one and are trying to stop violence are ‘terrorists’, but those committing actual genocide are our trusted partners. @Pal_action you will be remembered well by history. Starmer & Cooper, your legacy is also guaranteed. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Former President Joe Biden celebrated Juneteenth at a historic Black church in Texas, calling for Americans to come together to push the country forward: “We have work to do."

President Trump warned on Tuesday that protesters who assembled during a military parade he planned in Washington on Saturday for the Army’s 250th birthday would be met with “very big force,” making no distinction between peaceful demonstrations and violent confrontations.

“First they illegally deport citizens. Then they unleash ICE to terrorize communities. Now they’ve got the National Guard in L.A. to silence protestors. This ain’t about law and order. This is what authoritarianism looks like.” Rep Jasmine Crockett More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/millions-p...

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle. Don't give them one. Never use violence. Speak out peacefully.

Now, more than ever

Weird how Republicans say they’re worried about Big Tech and government overreach...until it’s Elon Musk. We tried to subpoena him over privacy concerns and data abuse. They blocked us. They’re not doing oversight—they’re doing cover-ups.

Any questions?

Democrats used reconciliation to pass the Inflation Reduction Act, which will lower the deficit by hundreds of billions. Republicans are using it to try and pass a bill that would add trillions to the debt in order to give a tax cut to billionaires.

Trump’s proposed budget: -Guts a nutrition program that helps 6.7M mothers, infants, and children under 5 access healthy food -Cuts housing programs that help 5.6M families afford rent -Eliminates funding entirely for Preschool Development Grants “Pro-family” values at work.

Trump is literally Making America Stupid Again.

"Apologists for Israel might want to reject the charge of genocide [and] suggest its hyperbole or even antisemitic, but the actual experts on genocide know a genocide when they see one - and they see one in Gaza." My receipts on all the experts who say Gaza *is* a genocide. zeteo.com/subscribe

Every progressive, pro-Palestine elected Dem in my feed is (rightly) condemning the murder of two Israeli staffers in DC. Funny how there’s rarely any reciprocity from their rightwing counterparts when there are hate crimes & murders against Palestinians, Arabs, & Muslims.

🥺 well justin you are one of my very favorite economists and i think you knocked this interview out of the park

"New Video of Mahmoud Khalil’s Arrest Shows Trump Admin is Lying in Court" The new footage of ICE’s warrantless arrest shows the Palestinian student fully cooperated with federal agents and was not a flight risk, reports @premthakker.bsky.social

Not to mention systemic racism.

Israel's blockade of food and humanitarian aid entering Gaza has caused catastrophic mass starvation and death. By continuing to supply Israel with military aid, the U.S. is complicit in this bloodbath. There's no moral clarity in wreaking vengeance on innocent people.

See the difference? 🤨

It’s absolutely insane that Trump can accept a $400 million private jet from Qatar while his party makes plans to strip millions of Americans of their health insurance.

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane. Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

NEW: As the Trump admin is flying Afrikaners here today to be resettled as "refugees," @Sec_Noem is terminating Temporary Protected Status for Afghanistan — meaning they may start deporting women and allies who protected our troops to the Taliban to be persecuted or killed!

The GOP wanted to impeach Biden for a fake $5M bribe from Ukraine that was made up by a guy sitting in prison for lying about it, but they’re cool with a $400M plane from Qatar. Do I have that right?

Former Netanyahu defence minister says Israel is engaging in “war crimes” and “ethic cleansing” in Gaza. So, I guess we should expect him to be blacklisted as an antisemite by Canary Mission and denied entry/detained by the US? www.middleeasteye.net/live-blog/li...

DOGE was never about "efficiency."

Bill Gates is calling out fellow tech billionaire Elon Musk over cuts made to US government spending under his watch through DOGE, saying the gutting of USAID would lead to millions of deaths around the world. Read more: cnn.it/3GLyqVj

For 66 days the Netanyahu government has blocked ALL food and aid from going into Gaza. Now we're told it plans to seize and reoccupy huge parts of Gaza, as it pushes for Trump's plan to force 2 million Palestinians to leave. That would be ethnic cleansing by another name. We can’t stand for it.

From @djrothkopf.bsky.social "But, we who care, who still have a conscience, have an obligation to resist the efforts to silence us. We must decry what has happened and should the latest Israeli plans be put into motion... open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...
