The only reason you assassinate every Al Jazeera journalist left in Gaza is because you don’t want anyone to document the genocide you are about to accelerate. Any politician, Democrat or MAGA or Independent, any journalist, liberal or conservative, who cannot call this genocide for what it is, is complicit, and I hope history remembers you as such.
VA Democrats are accusing VA Delegate Sam Rasoul of antisemitism because he condemns Netanyahu and zionism. So, I took his allegedly antisemitic quote and included it amongst 4 other quotes by Israeli and Jewish scholars about Netanyahu & Zionism & asked readers to pick out Sam's. So far 83% picked incorrectly. This isnt about antisemitism. It's about Islamophobia & whitewashing genocide.
As an immigrant & naturalized US Citizen, I am pained to see fellow immigrants buy MAGA talking points to demonize new immigrants still navigating through the maelstrom that is our immigration process. Y'all need to understand, proximity to white supremacy is not protection from white supremacy. I urge you to have compassion over condemnation, because I promise you—they will come for you next.
Public Broadcasting is dead, "Bias Monitors" are alive, and we're one step closer to state media -- but we are not helpless. As corporate media capitulate to Trump, we need to take these steps to organize and protect factual reporting:
It was bad enough that establishment Democrats were refusing to endorse the Democratic nominee for NYC Mayor. Today drops the news that Donald Trump has been directly coordinating with Andrew Cuomo to help him win the election, and Cuomo has been taking his calls and advice. At this point, anything short of a loud, immediate, and full fledged endorsement of Zohran Mamdani is an admission by establishment Democrats that they prefer Trump's candidate over the people's nominated candidate.
Sharing this with permission. This is what the vast VAST majority of comments from Jewish readers look like. Thoughtful, compassionate, and with conviction for justice and against the genocide of Palestinians. Do not let bad actors cloud the public discourse. The world is united—Jews, Muslims, Christians, believers, non-believers—to end this genocide. Continue to raise your voice. And if you want to support my human rights advocacy, I welcome your partnership at image
Article 1, Section 9 and 10 have been removed from the official government website on the US Constitution. This better be some kind of joke. Among numerous points: •Section 9 forbids suspending The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus •Section 10 forbids ex post facto laws Removing these two would absolutely mean full blown dictatorship. Genuinely hoping this is some sort of prank or joke, but you never know with this fascist regime. image
I am deeply grateful for the ongoing and gracious notes, DMs, and emails I receive from Jewish readers expressing gratitude for elevating the injustices imposed upon Gaza, for condemning the Israeli government's genocide on Palestinians, & for demanding accountability of complicit politicians in the United States. This is not a Jewish vs Muslim battle. This is a humanity vs injustice battle, with Muslims, Jews, Christians, & nonbelievers on one side—and corrupt unjust politicians on the other.
The Hunger Games is a dystopian novel about how innocent people are locked in an open air prison, constantly monitored by high tech surveillance, and forced to fight over meagre supplies without access to any kind of meaningful medical care—all while a well armed military shoots them down at every opportunity, killing thousands. Wait…sorry I got my wires crossed. What I just described above is verbatim the Israeli run Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. This. Is. Genocide.
8% of Democrats support Israel’s genocide on Palestinians. 71% of Republicans support Israel’s actions. If you’re an elected Democrat still taking money from aipac or still silent on this genocide, then know that you’re not only on the wrong side of history, you’re on the wrong side of American politics. Just become a Republican already and stop pretending to be someone you’re not. You don’t get to claim you condemn Trump’s fascism while quietly embracing Netanyahu’s genocide.
