There was one Jewish member of the UK cabinet when they voted to create Israel on top of Palestine. Here is the letter he wrote, vehemently opposing the Zionist project

this is me. when ur being mean to me, this is who ur being mean to

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas. It’s no wonder administration shill Bari Weiss pulled this off the air: www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjY7...

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

The slut-shaming of this woman was so messed up www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/s...

Rand Paul: "We've never in our past decided just to shoot smugglers who are unarmed without even proof they're smuggling anything. So I think this is a horrendous thing that should stop. I think it's illegal & immoral... the kids in the military - I'm not for sending them down there to die for oil"

It is kind of funny to say that AIPAC does not support your campaign while AIPAC's president hosts a fundraiser at his house

One of the biggest moments of my career: USCIS canceled my client’s naturalization oath ceremony. We filed a lawsuit, went to trial, and the judge swore him in right there in the courtroom!

a four star general said he'd be fine waging war on american soil against designated terrorist organizations, which now includes left-wing groups the doj is presently in the process of framing

As a person who has been studying extreme far right ideologies for the last decade (and did a PhD on immigration) I find the entrance of “remigration” into the mainstream American political lexicon so profoundly disturbing

Terrific story about Rob Reiner being as much of a mensch in real life as he seemed.

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

What if the social media experience some seek is not post-truth rhetorical combat with the deck stacked against them? What if they prefer conversations and good faith engagement? Why wouldn’t that be okay?

look at this little guy

#GVerse Something funny on a Saturday? I love animal videos. 😂😂

Avi Shlaim - a British historian of Iraqi Jewish descent “This Genocide is unusual because countries that commit genocide usually try to conceal it, while Israeli leaders keep announcing that they want to wipe Gaza off the earth”

it's actually kinda funny in a way to get to the finish line of curing cancer and having the government go eh you know what. never mind

Oh wow, absolute power corrupted you absolutely? That’s so weird, I got absolute power last year and my subjects say I’ve only gotten wiser and more virtuous

🚨 @slotkin.senate.gov warns of new NSPM-7 order tasking federal law enforcement with "coming up with this list of domestic terrorist organizations."

"House Democrats on Thursday voted to return Rep. Henry Cuellar to his leadership role on the House Appropriations Committee following his presidential pardon on federal corruption charges." JICYMI - Shameful, repulsive move by House Democrats and their leaders. Disgraceful.

In Britain, five political prisoners awaiting trial for supporting the banned protest group Palestine Action have been hospitalized due to deteriorating health as a result of hunger strikes.

The Democratic Party's formula for the last 50 years has been "Let's be friendly with extreme wealth and maybe we can also get modest policy wins sometimes." The last 10 years and this year in particular should be conclusive proof of how badly this has failed. But we're stuck with it anyway

The public inquiry into the Iraq War was as damning as it’s possible to be within this system. The parliamentary report on Libya tore the government a new arse. Both of them were instantly thrown in the bin and never mentioned again, in favour of inviting the culprits on TV and giving them peerages.

@schumer.senate.gov wtf is wrong with you my dude

In terms of US politics, Bush v. Gore is the defining event of the century. It set the template: a ruthless right that instinctively seeks power & doesn't give a shit about rule of law...and a bunch of hapless, feckless octogenarian Dems worried about the good opinion of centrist opinion columnists.

MAGAZINER: How many veterans have you deported? NOEM: We haven't deported veterans MAGAZINER: We are now joined on Zoom by a combat veteran you deported to Korea

Once again, the ads in the print edition of @theonion.com are worth the price alone

Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention (named for Holocaust survivor Raphael Lemkin, who coined the term "genocide") calls Clinton's remarks "genocide denial” -via @premthakker.bsky.social

This is not theoretical. My Australian relatives have canceled trips because they were advised they would not be admitted because of their media and social media posts opposing US and Israel policy

Well well well turns out Congress does have leverage of it chooses to use it

New WSJ reporting: "During a December visit to Washington, David Ellison offered assurances to Trump administration officials that if he bought Warner, he'd make sweeping changes to CNN, a common target of President Trump's ire, people familiar with the matter said..."

And what do you call this incredible act? *jazz hands* Conservatism!

Democrats are worse than useless good lord

Guardian: Former Israeli negotiator Daniel Levy, President of the US/Middle East Project on Trump’s “peace deal”: “It is very convenient for Israel. The pressure is off and they have smashed the whole place up, and can still kill as they please.” “[It’s] very convenient for the Americans.”

The UN resolution against torture had three votes against: Israel, Argentina and the US….

it does feel like an intense societal problem that the founder of palantir, the biggest survellience company, thinks like this

This is the UK Labour Party, the left-liberal party who took power in a wave election after the fascist-adjacent conservs melted down. We MUST prevent the US Democratic Party from turning into this. It is an essential priority. If they come to power and do this it will destroy America forever.

MacKenzie Scott: *donates $50M every 10 hours° Joe Lonsdale, co-founder of Palantir: "I want to see people hang"

A CNN investigation found that the IDF gunned down starving Palestinians trying to collect flour in Gaza. Then they bulldozed the corpses into unmarked graves, where they were left to rot and be scavenged by ravenous dogs.

I know this is the least nerdy of the social media networks but I can't deny you this gem.

From the @wsj.com chief foreign correspondent

I'm amazed to watch major mainstream media either ignore or write silly chuckling pieces about the Trump national security strategy, while around the world it evokes horror and rage. It's good evidence of how brain-dead US media have become.

A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings. “It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale. This is where Silicon Valley authoritarianism is heading: www.thenerdreich.com/joe-lonsdale...

Each day, we learn of Israel’s theft of yet another slice of Palestine. Piece by piece, acre by acre, the Palestinian nation has been seized by Israeli offensive forces and carved up by Zionist colonizers in contravention of all treaties, accords, “peace” agreements and the like.

IQ is completely fake, means nothing, and not based on science at all so of course the far right has adopted it as justification for insane beliefs, most recently anti-somalian rhetoric
