If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media. But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

Totally agree with this. Flying a person to a third country that they may never have been to, directly into a prison where they are going to be forced to do hard labor, is not a deportation; it's something else entirely.

Their lawsuit of Colombia and the gov for 1st amendment violation is smart and likely to succeed. Columbia Univ admin should have brought that charge against the Trump Admin but they are too busy kissing the ring of the fascists. Thanks for your tireless and objective reporting @jeremyscahill.com

And just today, Trump posted that he wants “ceasefire in Ukraine for the sake of” … get this… “humanity”. A day after massacring 174 children in Gaza. Because Palestinians are not humans in this monster’s eyes.

I’m okay with the pardon powers being gutted. We need that precedent to be set. What better time to set it than now? And hold the genocidal Biden family accountable for something, anything.

The Israeli and US barbarians are intensifying their slaughter again. There is no one to help the Palestinians. It’s a grotesquely shameful world. www.cnn.com/2025/03/17/m...

Taking their excuse (which is BS) at face value, what does that say about their “auto removal process” that singled out a black guy for removal? Do you now see how racist ppl build racist processes, systems and institutions? No, of course not. They’re doing it intentionally, not unconsciously.

Mind you, the concept, much less the practice, of DEI didn’t exist when Richard Nixon, a Republican, gave this man the Medal of Honor. But racists have always existed and they are back in control and in vogue now.

In TIME, Tharin hits on the intense BigTech push and my AGI-Hype paradox: "AI can be so brilliant that it will solve the world’s problems, using solutions we didn't think of, yet not so brilliant that it can’t escape whatever control constraints we think of". Seems odd, no? time.com/7267797/ai-l...

Meanwhile over on the other place, rightwing free speech warriors (this guy is a former DeSantis campaign staffer) are calling for me to be denaturalized and deported because they don’t like my political speech. This is what fascism and racism looks like, folks.

When Israel and its supporters say ‘but there was a ceasefire on October 6th’, this is what a ceasefire looks like to them - they get to keep killing Palestinians but not the other way around.
