No Other Land Co-Director Yuval Abraham: "The foreign policy in this country is helping to block this path. Why? Can't you see that we are intertwined? There is another way. It's not too late for life, for the living. There is no other way."

The idea that a political party must do more dramatic things in response to defeat is not new to the social media age. New bio of John Lewis describes his approach to Newt Gingrich et al taking the House in 1994. Lewis applied Civil Rights era lessons and a willingness to burst norms to hurt Newt.

The Trump-Vance administration has just used "emergency authorities" to "expedite" another $4 billion of military aid to Israel. Just a day after the administration approved $3.01 billion in arms & equipment sales to Israel. Admin cited "emergency" there as well to bypass Congress there.

did you know it's illegal to say "i think someone should kill elon musk" it's also illegal to say "the best place to fire a mortar launcher at the eisenhower building would be from the roof of the mills building because of minimal security and you'd have a clear line of sight to elon's office"

the ongoing new lavender scare has been hard for me to grapple with. if you are transgender do not get caught doing anything illegal and do not say anything anywhere that the state would want to prosecute you over. genuinely, be careful and prepare however you can

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

the idea that these tech guys are opposed to "government waste" is so completely fucking ridiculous. they feast on government waste. DOD budgets are a bloated mess. the pentagon has failed 7 straight audits. the big beneficiaries are tech companies providing defense services.

At least $12 trillion from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA. Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.

Obama/Biden didn't do nearly enough rolling back even the most unpopular excesses of the Bush/Trump admins when they had the chance. 2028 candidates need to be willing to threaten prosecutions/retribution. The GOP only understands blunt force, and dems need to be willing to punish them accordingly.

Trump put a freeze on hiring air traffic controllers and, on Musk’s instruction, fired the FAA chief early without replacing him. This should be the only thing Dems are saying today. They should all be out on media saying this.

Fascinating video on Steam trends, especially these statistics- of all the games released in Steam in 2024, just 2.5% had the "LBGTQ+" tag and 7% had the "female protagonist" tag. This is supposedly the political trend that's overwhelming and destroying gaming. youtu.be/qiNv3qv-YbU?...
