DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — The World Food Program says its food stocks in Gaza have run out under Israel's nearly 8-week-old blockade.

A 3,000 year old Gaza city is gone.

They’re arresting judges now

Harvard scientist Kseniia Petrova has been in ICE custody for about two months. Her colleague and friend Leon Peshkin says her case is causing some scientists to reconsider working in the U.S.

🍊💩🤡 DAAR "Reporter: “[China is] saying it's fake news that trade talks are happening.” Trump: “Well, they had a meeting this morning.” Reporter: “Who's they?” Trump: “I can't tell you. It doesn't matter who they is.”" www.threads.net/@bulwarkonli...

Shouldn't ANZAC Day be about saying 'never again' rather than a petty nationalist militarisation, tied to a sinking US? #StoptheGenocide (s) #StopAUKUS #peace #auspol #wapol

The leader of this “group of people” who stormed Ryan’s public forum is a Far Right extremist, with links to the Neo Nazi ‘Lads Society’ But, hey, don’t let pesky facts get in the way of your anti-Teals propaganda, Herald Sun #MurdochTrash

Gina Rinehart has called for defence spending to rise to 5 per cent of GDP in a speech at the Sydney Opera House Perhaps Gina should just spend her money .. she has become extremely rich off the nations resources anyway. And those resources belong to the whole nation. #auspol #TemuTrump

“No fresh fruit has entered Gaza in over a month. Our last protein ingredients have already been cooked.”

You can't just snatch people off the street, lock them up, and throw away the key. Unless you're in a dystopia. Or outside the reach of the Supreme Court's authority. It’s a good time to understand habeas corpus:

After a deadly Russian strike on Kyiv, this bastard has the audacity to retweet Trump’s bullshit attacking Ukraine. And America, as always, blames Zelenskyy. Not Russia, Zelenskyy. What the fuck.

The Trump 'peace' plan for #Ukraine is no such thing; it is an instrument of surrender. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

🇺🇸 VP J.D. Vance says the U.S. has officially proposed Ukraine & Russia freeze the war along current frontlines. “Both sides should lay down arms, freeze this, and start building a better Russia and a better Ukraine,” he said. A better Ukraine start when Russia leaves Ukrainian territory

one of the world's top cancer scientists, who works for Harvard, is at risk of deportation to Russia where she might be killed for criticizing Putin, because she allegedly failed to disclose carrying frog embryos at the border. it's upending American medical research: prospect.org/health/2025-...

Trump was never serious about a real negotiation to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. Now Vance says they’ll “walk away” if Ukraine doesn’t accept terms that serve Moscow’s interests. Bullying is not negotiating. Nor is pretending to be a negotiator when you’re just there to serve Putin. Appalling.

Chas should maybe stop chuckling. If he really doesn't see what's going on, he's either a useless analyst, or he's unhinged. What's funny? #PlanetAmerica

Japanese netizens are shocked by a tweet from the US Embassy declaring that Japanese people applying for non-immigrant visas must provide information on all social media accounts they have used in the last 5 years [or their visas could be rejected]. Some are comparing it to China & North Korea.

Never forget what Dutton is like. Merciless to defenceless innocents. A wannabe Trump. We can't stop Trump, but we can stop Dutton. #AusVotes2025 #Auspol #Don'tRiskDutton 👇

They will tell you that this virus is a dangerous bioweapon that escaped from a laboratory, but if they see you taking any steps to protect yourself from this virus they will tell you that this virus is really just a cold.

📌BREAKING: “60 Minutes” Executive Producer Bill Owens, resigns saying, “Over the past months, it has become clear that I would not be allowed to run the show as I have always run it, to make independent decisions based on what was right for ‘60 Minutes,’ right for the audience.” 📌CHILLING

Whilst the Victorian Government has said it has stopped native forest logging, all available evidence indicates the opposite. Victorians and Australians need to be aware. #auspol

Pope Francis broke with Roman Catholic tradition one final time by choosing a site outside The Vatican as his final resting place. La Basilica Papale di Santa Maria Maggiore, which is just a few blocks south of Rome's main train station, was one of his very favorite places for quiet contemplation.

Pope Francis was a master of making emotional connections. He was, at heart, a pastor to wounded souls. Here are some of the most memorable moments of Pope Francis' papacy.

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

At a time when moral leadership has been in short supply in the world — when authoritarians and neofascists are pushing us into darkness — Pope Francis pointed toward the light. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-conscience-of-the-world

AUKUS - “A more imaginative and innovative government would have investigated different ways to achieve a strong and independent national defence policy. One that, for instance, didn’t require Australia to surrender its sovereignty to a foreign power.” #auspol

Fox News labels Kyiv a Russian city, Ukraine calls for 'apology and investigation' flip.it/HJArnP

It’s extraordinary that so much media still reports on Trump with the old, redundant tools of the trade. He lied about Ukraine, then he tried to extort Ukraine, and having failed he threatens to walk away from Ukraine. The idea that he was ever going to do anything unwelcome to Putin is ridiculous.

A #squirrel gets gently brushed and clearly enjoys it. When the scratching stops, it taps for more. This reaction is common in #mammals, as grooming and gentle touch can trigger calming responses and even release endorphins.

In every case, Republicans are a threat to a Constitutionally ordered United States: whether they’re conscious or ignorant, they’re a threat. But also, these are not good human beings, full stop! Their populist interest is in projecting and then punishing “enemies.” Higher up, it’s corruption/power.

The parallels with Australia’s election campaign are amazing!! The extreme right has nothing of substance to offer *(that they’re prepared to tell voters because it is trumpian!!?!) Clear signs the extreme right share strategies and tactics globally
