Senator Padilla was driven violently to his knees–as if made to kneel before the authority of the executive–because the administration called his questions “disrespectful”. This should offend not just the other 99 Senators. It should offend the conscience of this country.

Rightly so. Residents of Gaza fear that an armed militia led by former convict Yasser Abu Shabab, allegedly supported by Israeli military forces, is escalating violence and internal chaos –potentially pushing Gaza toward civil war www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

A group of us have arrived on the Senate floor to challenge our colleagues - on both sides of the aside - to rise to this moment and jointly condemn what has happened to Sen. Padilla. Yes we still need to collect the full facts, but this appears to be a defining moment for the country.

“Where is the Labour party we know, they aren’t spending on the NHS & infrastructure” “Labour is spending too much on the NHS & infrastructure. I’m going to have to pay more tax”?? Whatever happens Labour will never win over this ridiculous country. It’s all media driven, listened to by drones.

64% of Israelis think "there are no innocent people in Gaza." It gets worse. That figure includes the 20% of Israel who are Palestinian citizens. 92% of them disagree. So that means Jewish Israeli overwhelmingly think there are no innocent people in Gaza.

MPs and peers urge govt to investigate how a US private equity company is funding £500m takeover of the Telegraph. Concerns about "Chinese state influence”. Why not the same concerns about the ownership of water, steel, auto, airports, banks, real estate?

One thing Labour should be quite urgently addressing is to end the Tory regime at the BBC. They can’t afford to be magnanimous in this political environment

How on earth can the UK sanction two Israeli ministers yet — at the very same time — continue supplying weapons to the very government they serve? The UK’s position is becoming more absurd by the day. End all arms sales to Israel, now.

More Palestinians killed as they try to collect food. Israels aid distribution system isn't about helping Palestinians survive. Its about keeping them on the brink of starvation, controlling them, moving them & killing them

The world isn't silent on Gaza - this is by far the most vocal I have seen the general public on a political issue in my lifetime. I have also never seen a bigger difference between the anger of the public and the inaction of specific institutions and governments. That's the crucial disconnect.

Zelensky versucht wirklich alles, um den Europäern klarzumachen, dass sie den USA und Trump nicht mehr hinterher rennen müssen/sollen. Die USA nicht mehr vorab über eigene Angriffe zu informieren, war auch schon so ein klares Zeichen. Jetzt müsste es die EU nur noch verstehen (wollen).

As long as reporters in the briefing room and in the rope line etc don’t garbage Trump and Leavitt with this question - why did you pardon J6ers if you care about police safety? - they’ll continue to behave shamelessly hypocritically and won’t face any consequences.

Memo to Ed: nuclear is outdated, hugely costly & far too slow. Hinkley Pt C is already years late & tens of billions over budget. Nuclear isn’t zero carbon, it won’t be “always on”, we still haven’t found a safe way to dispose of waste & it poses huge security risks @sayno2sizewellc.bsky.social
