Right now, Muslims in Gaza are supposed to be celebrating Eid al-Adha. Instead of feasting, they are starving. Instead of gathering with their loved ones, they are burying their children. Netanyahu and the IDF can end this misery ANY time by agreeing to a ceasefire and allowing aid into Gaza.

Still LA, ICE is gathered again to start another operation after tear gassing civilians for hours at Paramount. A massive ICE presence stands across the street from civilians. This is live right now.

ICE is the January 6 insurrectionists all over again. Only instead of attacking law enforcement, they are pretending to *be* law enforcement. And instead of just terrorizing at the Capitol, they are doing it EVERYWHERE.

The kind of good news I’m grateful for. TY @hwahl16.bsky.social for sending this my way 💚

And genocide too.

"The Taxpayers' Alliance" is a preposterous, misleading, self-aggrandising self-description They don't "represent" most taxpayers and they are not an "alliance". They are a small state lobbying group with shady backing, calling themselves a "think tank"

Sarah Elliott on #BBCAQ today.

This administration will twist facts...dodge questions...and smear reputations....anything to avoid saying the one honest thing about Kilmar Abrego Garcia: “We were wrong.” The arrogance is staggering...and the damage they’re doing to justice is unforgivable.

Awww you guys - the Acting Director of ICE is really upset that we keep accurately refering them the American Gestapo and calling out their kidnappings. Keep up the good work everyone!!!

See the difference? 👀

Gary Lineker deserves a knighthood over David Beckham - The i Paper

Absolutely right. Don’t fall for the ‘we need to leave the ECHR’ to stop ‘illegal’ migration It’s exactly like the Brexit argument. We need to give up our rights to stop migrants It’s a lie. It won’t. Those who sell it will never be satisfied until all our protections are gone

He’s building a ballroom while slashing food for hungry kids. That’s not “cutting waste,” it’s definition of waste. Millions go to bed hungry so a guy who doubled his wealth in 4 months can waltz under chandeliers. Waste, Fraud and Abuse? Look in the mirror.

I don't even know what to say anymore.

Those Brexit benefits keep on rolling in… For Putin #ExitBrexit

“the DWP said it did not know how many of the 95,000 care for someone who also scored below four points in each daily living category of their PIP assessment” Of course they don’t know because no one bothers to keep good data on unpaid carers. No one wants to know who we are.

Welcome to America, where protesting illegal kidnappings without due process is an insurrection, but attacking the nation’s Capitol is not.

Now everyone will go look up the book and it will make NY Times. #sighs #booksky #writingcommunity

Well this is quite something. Very few people - especially if they’ve had access to power - have this much spine. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

A teacher breaks down after ICE causes multiple schools to lockdown during graduation ceremonies and parents to flee for their lives. Only the soulless aren’t hurting from what is happening in our country. This is affecting all of us.

I was a counterprotester on January 6. Holding an anti-Trump sign outside the Capitol, I was assaulted. I witnessed the rioters carrying weapons and shouting in unison about murdering Congress. January 6th was not a peaceful protest. It was a violent coup attempt by Trump supporters. Never forget.

Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio tried to give a press conference to announce his lawsuit against DOJ. Much to my surprise it turned out to be the greatest press conference of all-time.

Surprising nobody

ICE raids hit across Los Angeles today—and locals are rising up. This is what resistance looks like. ✊🏾 This was about an hour ago…

Russia is at war with Britain and US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Just sharing this again. Labour has had FOUR times the private healthcare donations of every other party www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/...

Reform UK councils in ‘shambles’ as newly elected councillors fail to show up www.independent.co.uk/bulletin/new...

The world is 700% richer than in 1970 but the average person is only 8% richer. Because the richest 0.01% are 4000% richer. We are all being robbed every second of every day, and it doesn't matter how much profit or growth there is. It will never reach you.

Russia is at war with Britain, and the US is no longer a reliable ally, UK adviser says. The war has been going on for at least a decade. So is it not time to ban all those who have taken Russian money or repeated Russian lies to be barred from public office. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

These are Pavlo Petrov and Inna Zhelchuk, spokesperson and press officer from Kyiv Emergency Service. They were injured by the Russian attack on #Kyiv yesterday. Pavlo and Inna are in hospital, recovering from the Russian strike. Wishing them a speedy recovery.

💥 Reform UK says it's a £350m scandal. 🧐 It's actually… a spreadsheet. Before you light the torches, maybe check what a framework is first? The Bear explains their rookie error ⤵️

Nearly a dozen immigration officers and eight deportees are sick and stranded in a metal shipping container in the searing-hot East African nation of Djibouti, where they face the constant threat of malaria and rocket attacks from nearby Yemen, according to a federal court filing.
