FK U @sanders.senate.gov If even you can't take a principled stand against genocide and apartheid then there is ZERO hope that the Democratic party can stand for us against fascism. Step aside.

This is a better quality video. Massive respect to the anti-genocide protestors. They deserved better from the main speaker.

bernie getting drowned out by free Palestine chants at his fight the oligarchy rally is beautiful 🥺 as usual he’s cool with fascism in other countries just not here and his constituents showed they have more spine than him

It's not illegal for the press to publish classified info. Jeffrey Goldberg's decision to wait for Trump to deem the Signal chat not classified before publishing it shows how deferent the media is to gov't on national security stories. It shouldn't be! www.kenklippenstein.com/p/signalgate...

how about you Pokémon Go back to hell where you came from

Richard Madeley compared Palestine to Nazi Germany, and then said that all the children killed were collateral damage of an essential invasion. RT if him and his hideous views need to be banned from UK TV. (Richard Madeley in October 2023.)

The number of people who go bankrupt every year because of medical bills. Norway - 0 UK - 0 France - 0 Spain - 0 Portugal - 0 Denmark - 0 Australia - 0 Iceland - 0 Italy - 0 Finland - 0 Ireland - 0 Germany - 0 Netherlands - 0 Sweden - 0 Japan - 0 Canada - 0 United States - 643k

Melanie Phillips is quoted extensively in Anders Breivik's 2011 Manifesto. She "took exception" to suggestions she influenced him. Would a black/Muslim/Palestinian journalist quoted extensively in Hamas's 7/10 statements still be regular panelist on BBC programmes?

60 Minutes's story on Israel’s pager attack that killed dozens and injured thousands of Lebanese featured no Lebanese voices and was told completely from the Israeli perspective. In the process, it justified war crimes in Lebanon and Gaza. https://mondoweiss.net/2024/12/60-minutes-program-on-leban…

The World Bowls Tour has banned Israel from competing at their championship. Like if this is right. RT if Israel need to be banned from all Sporting competitions.

#BidenHarris did this.

Thanks #joebiden. We'll always remember you for this.

The only way I can see this being pitched to advertisers is if Facebook will be selling what is effectively a bot farm to them

He was the only decent person to hold the office of POTUS in the past 50 years. The rest are all war criminals. #jimmycarter

Wow: 69 percent of Americans believe health insurance claim denials are at least partly responsible for the UnitedHealthcare CEO's death

Another day another Israeli war crime: a strike on Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp left more than 30 people, many members of same family, dead. www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/12...

"Israeli soldiers stormed Gaza's last functioning hospital on Friday and forced semi-naked Palestinian medics and patients to leave on foot to an unknown destination, according to videos and eyewitness testimony shared with Middle East Eye." najwahab.substack.com/p/fun

That is NOT why this camp is closing. Please stop spreading this ridiculous story. HIV in youth is low, which IS great. But there was 1 week per year for housing insecure kids and 4 weeks per year for LGBTQ kids. There just isn’t enough $ to support a camp that mostly served queer kids.

Genocide...

Kamal Adwan Hospital, the last remaining in north Gaza, has been raided and cleared of staff and patients by the Israeli army. Gaza’s Health Ministry says contact has been lost with the hospital and reports a large fire spreading through several of its departments. Al Jazeera

Here's my fucked up American healthcare insurance story. I was getting clean off junk and they wouldn't cover the suboxone prescribed by my recovery doc so I had to buy it off my old dealer
