Media headlines that read: "No Food Has Entered Gaza Since Oct 1" do a disservice & are failing at journalism. They should read: "The Israeli Government Has Blocked Food From Entering Gaza Since Oct 1, Causing Famine." Passive writing is cowardly Hold The Powerful Accountable
After ~370 days of Netanyahu indiscriminately bombing Gaza, Blinken & Austin have sent him a letter that if he doesn't stop bombing in 30 days, they might consider withholding some weapons. Either they're deliberately making empty threats because they agree with his bombing, or they need cover to get through the Election, or both. Stop arming Netanyahu. End this genocide. Release all hostages. Enough.
So to summarize: BDS: criminalized Funding UNRWA: banned Criticizing Israel: antisemitic Ending the occupation: impossible Ending the settlements: impossible Appealing to ICJ or ICC: unwarranted Sending food & water into Gaza: banned The peaceful Great March of Return: banned Peaceful college campus protests: antisemitic Seeking return of Palestinian kids in Israeli prison: impossible Burning to death displaced or hospitalized civilians in Gaza: justified This Is What Genocide Looks Like
Columbus was a mass murdering rapist & genocidal monster who destroyed the lives of Indigenous People. This isn't my opinion—it's his own stated intentions & goals. It's long past time to stop honoring Columbus & instead observe Indigenous Peoples' Day.
There it is. What we’ve been warning of all along. Israeli Defense Officials: Gov't Pushing Aside Hostage Deal, Eyeing Gaza Annexation It was never about the hostages, it was always about illegally annexing Gaza via genocide. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2024-10-13/ty-article/.premium/israeli-defense-officials-govt-pushing-aside-hostage-deal-eyeing-gaza-annexation/00000192-8585-d988-a3ba-dde59a470000
In June Biden pushed for the UNSC resolution for ceasefire & release of all hostages—Israel rejected its own resolution & now Biden no longer pushes for ceasefire. In August Biden said he didn't want Israel to attack Lebanon—in Sept Biden reversed and now supports Israel's attacks on Lebanon. In Sept Biden said he'd wouldn't deploy more troops to the Middle East—today he reverses & is sending more troops to Israel. These are shameful failures & make no mistake—they harm Harris & help Trump.
Trump’s call to deport millions of immigrants will devastate our country and our economy. Remember: •Immigrants have lower crime rates than do U.S. citizens •Immigrants have higher vaccination rates than do U.S. citizens •Immigrants entering the work force raise wages for U.S. citizens •Immigrants pay $600B annually in taxes & will add $7T to US economy The fact is, Trump hates immigrants because he’s racist, and they exemplify the success he never could.
In the last two weeks Netanyahu has: •Killed 2000+ civilians & 100+ healthcare workers, injured 9500+, & displaced 1.2M people in Lebanon •Threatened violence on Lebanon the same way the Israeli military leveled Gaza •Shot & killed unarmed civilians in Northern Gaza trying to flee to safety •Shot & multiple UN peacekeepers •Arrested American journalist Jeremy Loffredo What happened to “working day and night” to get a deal done??
How do we prevent corrupt MAGA judges from getting their protégé's elected on the State & Local level—especially as Project 2025 deploys? A case story and the 3 must ask questions of every judicial candidate:
As Cat 4 Hurricane Milton prepares to wreck havoc on Florida, a reminder that Gov DeSantis rejected $11B in Federal aid meant to address climate & infrastructure, & banned the phrase "climate change" from Florida laws. Republicans are proving "Don't Look Up" was a documentary.
