🚫🚫Israeli Broadcasting Authority: The Israeli army plans to seize the Madelene ship, tow it to Ashdod port, and arrest and deport the activists onboard. This is a blatant attack on peaceful solidarity missions. Don’t stay silent. #SaveMadelene #FreeGaza #GazaFreedomFlotilla

🚨 ALERTA PHILLY 🚨 Hearing from a very credible local source that there may be ICE action tomorrow (Sunday 6/8) in the following areas: 5th and Washington Ave 7th and Snyder Ave 5th and McKean/Wolf Chinatown Let your neighbors know to stay safe and be vigilant. Be ready. Be water.

Another failure of the Obama era democratic majority. When Obama was elected to his first term, ICE as an agency had existed for only 5 years. Instead we handed over an army of racist hogs to Donald Trump

“Defund the police” was in fact a great slogan.

This is @melbuer.bsky.social on Sean’s account, posting here since it’s his video: the moment that Sean and @ryannemena.bsky.social were injured by what may have been a tear gas canister fired from a line of HSI officers in Paramount, CA.

Urgent: The Freedom Flotilla ship is expected to reach Gaza within the next 72 hours to break the blockade. The coming hours are very critical , we must focus on them and amplify their voices. If you see this, reply with a dot . spread it 🥹❤️

Sending 2,000 troops to Los Angeles is the same thing as sending a few dozen random people to a gulag in El Salvador, they're doing this because it's a thing they've always wanted to do, not because of any broader goal or coherent plan. Subordination of strategy to tactical planning.

For a second consecutive day, tear gas and flash bangs have been used to disperse protests over immigration activity in the Los Angeles area: cnn.it/3FMIOfg

“Fund the police” was a whole applause line for the people best situated to prevent this.

Yunseo Chung, the Columbia student and green-card holder who has been in hiding since ICE tried to disappear her in March, wins sweeping order preventing her arrest and detention. She becomes the first of these pro-Palestinian advocates to circumvent the Trump administration policy to deport them.

NEW: On Thursday, Comptroller Brad Lander joined the court-watchers at 290 Broadway, one of the city's three federal immigration court buildings, and walked with immigrants away from their court appearances in order to deter ICE agents from abducting them. hellgatenyc.com/lander-accom...

Someone thought no one would ask. @smaldo.bsky.social asked.

Move comes as Israel kills nearly 100 Palestinians across enclave in one day while maintaining crippling aid blockade.

You don’t have stories like this in countries with national healthcare systems

Fascinated by the pro-Cuomo argument that it's better to have spent years ruining things as a vicious and incompetent manager than to come to the job with limited managerial experience

Somehow the "We need to support policies that are popular" crowd never land on the very popular polices like "taxing big corporation more," "making health care more affordable," or "paying teachers more." It's always just "be 10% more racist."

On June 14th NYers are uniting to reject Trump! This is also the first day of early voting, our opportunity to say NO to Cuomo. Trump & Cuomo are bought by the same MAGA billionaires! They are both medicaid cutters, slumlord lovers, abusers who have broken their promises & sold out working people.

We would never have: ended slavery repealed Jim Crow laws stopped arresting people for being gay legalized interracial marriage With popularist philosophy that white centrist dudes like Adam Jentleson and David Shor keep pushing.

John Fettermans former Chief of Staff is leading this ….. Sooooo failing up and racist?

Ms. Rachel says she’ll keep advocating for children in Gaza, even if it means risking her career

"It would certainly be nice if the Democrats had a plan to fight fascism beyond distributing free tacos." newrepublic.com/post/196062/...

Net favourability towards Israel hits new lows in key Western European countries Germany: -44* UK:-46 France: -48* Italy: -52** Denmark: -54* Spain: -55** * lowest since tracking started in 2016 ** lowest since tracking started in 2021 yougov.co.uk/internationa...

The notable donors in real-estate and finance — and Billy Joel — who are spending tens of thousands to support Andrew Cuomo’s mayoral run.

Members of the Freedom Flotilla, a peaceful mission to break the siege on Gaza, are reporting that a drone is hovering over their ship currently en route to Gaza. This isn’t just an idle threat. A few weeks ago, Israel bombed a separate freedom flotilla ship near Malta with two suicide drones.
