President Eric Cartman, commander-in-chief of the most powerful fighting force ever, just casually kidnapped a foreign leader & took control of his country, openly for the purpose of getting our companies in to extract their oil. We live in an SNL skit, but w/real consequences for millions of ppl.

W/out congressional authorization or popular support, Trump bombed Venezuela’s capital & kidnapped its president, just weeks after Trump admitted on TV that this is about taking Venezuela’s oil, & after months of theft & murder on the high seas. To call this admin “lawless” is an understatement.

Confronting a congressional candidate whose campaign is built on a message of hate:

The President is not only making the murder of Rob Reiner about himself, but is seemingly suggesting he had it coming on account of Reiner’s criticism of the president. This is deranged and disgusting behavior.

Pause & reflect for a moment on how literally the most sinister & powerful forces in our country got together to coordinate & bankroll a MASSIVE smear campaign to defeat Mamdani, & they failed. Just when things in this country & around the world looked bleak, a glimmer of hope.

Israel’s torture chambers are now beyond the reach of the Red Cross:

The size of the #NoKings uprising across the country today is another glimmer of hope that, even in the face of this authoritarian regime’s crackdown on our people & it’s unprecedented assault on democracy, the fight for a better future in America is alive and well. 👊

Saying Trump deserves the Nobel peace prize for stopping the genocide he was arming & funding in Gaza as he keeps it occupied is like saying a wife-beater deserves a feminism award for agreeing to stop beating his wife to a pulp every night & locking her in the bathroom instead.

I wanted to come up with an appropriate rejoinder to these despicable, genocide denying words from Jared Kushner. But I can't put it better than @omarbaddar.bsky.social does right here.

Telling CNN what the ceasefire agreement after 2 years of genocide will mean for Gaza, & how keeping the boot of occupation on the necks of Palestinians will never bring true peace or security for Palestinians or Israelis.

It is worth noting that Trump is calling on Israel to "immediately stop the bombing of Gaza" based on Hamas agreeing to something they've ALWAYS agreed to: Releasing the hostages & giving up Gaza's governance in exchange for Israel stopping the genocide.

Serious question: is there a single other government on the planet that can murder American children as frequently as Israel does without our politicians & media raising hell about it?!

Lebanon has been strictly observing a one-sided ceasefire for 10 months while Israel continues to pummel their country with THOUSANDS of attacks, killing & maiming countless people. Remember this when someone in Lebanon eventually responds to this aggression.

He joked multiple times about Paul Pelosi getting smashed in the skull with a hammer.

This was just last month and we have already memoryholed it. A cop killed by an antivaxxer.

Yesterday the Israeli government murdered 86 Palestinians in Gaza. Today, a gunman killed 6 Israelis in Jerusalem. As you watch the in-depth coverage of the 6 Israelis, note how little you’ll hear about the 86 Palestinians, or about the many dozens more who will be murdered today.

The only way to stop Israel's genocide in Gaza in the face of Trump's full endorsement is for the rest of the world to isolate Israel & apply sanctions immediately.

Trump: “Go deal w/the emergency!” N. Guard: “Um, there’s no emergency” Trump: “fine, do some landscaping”

Can you imagine if US public schools displayed ISIS & Al-Qaeda flags in a "bid to fight Islamophobia?" Utterly deranged & disgusting behavior in the midst of a genocide. History will have a lot to say about our Orwellian existence in this era.

As was already clear to anyone with an IQ of above average room temperature, & contrary to what lying Israeli propagandists have been saying, Israel’s killing of civilians in Gaza is, in The Guardian’s words, “an extreme rate of slaughter rarely matched in recent decades of warfare.”

Anas al-Sharif is the latest Palestinian journalist murdered by Israel in the largest massacre of journalists in history (read that again), for the crime of reporting Israel’s genocide to the world. I’d say shame on western journalists who remain silent, but that ship has sailed a long time ago.

Who could've ever imagined that Netanyahu is a liar, and that the systematic ethnic cleansing & destruction of Gaza from day one was prep for the only thing it could possibly be prep for?

For the 1st time in my lifetime, a majority of Senate Dems have voted against sending weapons to that genocidal rogue regime massacring Palestinian children & terrorizing the region. In a better world, this would be a unanimous vote held at least 21 months earlier. We can’t rest until it’s done!

Pro-genocide propagandists are whitewashing Israel's starvation of Gaza and its slaughter of its children. Never let them get away with it.

If ISIS had beaten an American to death, EVERY SINGLE media outlet would stop their programming to do breaking news coverage, the President would hold a press conference, & the U.S. military would be mobilizing. But when Israeli fanatics do it, it’ll be a passing blip for our media & politicians.

Once again, Israeli soldiers confess to being ordered to slaughter unarmed civilians, but await the genocide apologists appearing on your TV any minute now to explain why Israel is only defending itself.

Amid a bleak political moment, a glimmer of hope! Congrats @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social!

The Washington Post just released the audio of Israeli operatives threatening to kill the children and families of Iranian officials. Once again, the Israeli government is the largest and deadliest terrorist organization in the Middle East.

Let history remember: The so-called “anti-war” president took a problem that Obama had already solved peacefully, & decided to unsolve it & make a war out of it to help a foreign war criminal named Netanyahu. The consequences of this foolishness are unpredictable.

Which country in the Middle East poses the biggest threat to peace & stability?

A rare occasion where a mainstream U.S. media outlet writes a blunt headline involving Israel’s conduct in the region. Kudos to the @nytimes.com!

Scream it from the rooftops: Iran offered to return to the Obama nuclear deal that verifiably prevents Iran from even coming close to nukes. Trump & Netanyahu refuse to. They are LYING to you when they say this is about Iran’s nuclear program. It’s about making Iran submit to Israeli dominance.

Donald Trump just ordered the evacuation of Tehran, a city of 10+ million people (bigger than New York). This is utterly horrific & apocalyptic.

In a saner world, we’d be asking the U.S. to lead an international coalition to stop a rogue state w/illegal nukes from committing genocide & attacking its neighbors. In this insane world, we’re debating if the US should intervene in support of this murderous regime & keep arming its genocide.

All of this was avoidable, if only the US could for once say “no” to that rogue, nuclear-armed, genocidal regime whose leaders are wanted by the International Criminal Court, which is intent on burning down the entire region in pursuit of land theft & unquestioned regional dominance.

NOTE: while (for good reason) all eyes on Iran, Israel has cut off electricity & communication between Gaza & the outside world, so expect the genocide there to escalate as well. Don’t take your eyes off Gaza.

Israel, a rogue nuclear-armed state in the midst of committing genocide, just initiated a military confrontation against Iran. We are in uncharted territory. This has the potential to be the most consequential confrontation that will determine the fate of the region for decades to come.

Israel just carried out another act of piracy in the Mediterranean, preventing a humanitarian ship from delivering food to a starving population in Gaza. If you’re wondering who’s ACTUALLY stealing the aid, Israel just did it out in the open.

So we’re now at the stage where the President & the world's richest tech overlord are having a scorched earth, ‘Jerry Springer’ fight on social media while the middle class crumbles, the climate melts down, & a US-sponsored genocide rages on the other side of the world? Do we laugh or weep now?

Good morning! In case you don’t care about the genocidal slaughter of Palestinian children by the terrorist organization known as the Israeli government, know that you tax money that’s going to Israel is now also literally arming ISIS.

My conversation w/ @omarbaddar.bsky.social is up now. How to explain the failure of Western media in covering a live genocide? Is the "rules-based order" officially dead? Will there be any kind of Palestine to advocate for in 20 years? This and more. WATCH: lthomas.substack.com/p/palestine-...

Every time the word “human shields” came out of the mouth of an American or Israeli politician, it was to gaslight you into thinking it’s something Palestinians did. Israel uses Palestinian civilians as human shields because they know Palestinians care about life.

This is absolutely spot on

The Prime Minister of Israel says the genocide will continue until Palestinians are expelled from Gaza. For how much longer are American politicians & media outlets going to pretend this isn’t a war on the civilian population in Gaza?

I can't imagine the horror of parents watching their babies continuously wail because they're starving, & desperately trying to feed them painful solids they're too young for. There will be a moral reckoning one day for everyone who enabled this, including enabling it with their silence.

It's disgusting that anyone is treating Israel's tormenting of the Palestinian population in Gaza with a "basic amount" of food as some sort of humanitarian act. There should be ZERO restrictions on food, & we need to end the genocide NOW!

They’re not harming Palestinians, they’re only helping Israel genocide them 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

The ‘Trail of Tears,’ only bigger & more murderous. The plan is the destruction of the people of Palestine (on livestream as we speak), & the forcible displacement of the survivors. Nothing is emptier & more vapid than our collective pretense that we learn from history’s worst atrocities.

What is there left to say. For nearly 600 days, Palestinians have been slaughtered on a genocidal scale, & the world has decided their daily slaughter is normal. 1.5+ years of daily screams & charred bodies & starving children, & no one will stop it. What a failure for humanity.
