On Tuesday, the Israeli government announced that it would suspend the aid work of several humanitarian organizations that provide lifesaving aid to Palestinians in Gaza living through what Amnesty International and other groups labeled as a genocide.

I was scrolling TikTok last night and imagine my jumpscare when this is pushed into my feed??? TikTok is selling N*zi gear now I guess.

this is just a crazy story and further proves how much power the tech bros have over the world

A somber scene of reflection and outrage outside the Bondi Pavilion where an impromptu vigil is taking place. Prayer, intense grief, amongst Sydney’s Jewish community.

PTFO collaborated with @msjpauly.bsky.social and @motherjones.com on an investigation into Riley Gaines. Riley’s messaging about trans athletes involves “predatory men” and “sexual assault.” But there’s an important story multiple ex-teammates at Kentucky want you to know: youtu.be/iKUl8lkuGOc?...

I’ve spent a lot of the last three years investigating the rise of anti-trans politics. Often, it came back to the controversy over trans women athletes. So I teamed up with @pablo.show to look into the leading figure on the issue: Riley Gaines. www.motherjones.com/politics/202... 1/

NEW @motherjones.com: When a 16-year-old accused Russell Brand of rape, Megyn Kelly begged conservatives to condemn him. Now, with Epstein, she’s claiming it’s not quite fair to call him a a pedophile because he was “into the barely legal type” of minors. ⬇️ www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

um… this is scary (speaking tomorrow at the double exposure film fest in DC on how to build social short form presence!!)

just got to DC and it’s freaky af seeing troops everywhere

What would it mean for California to "soft secede?" @clarajeffery.bsky.social explains how blue states can use their economic and cultural clout to stand up to Trump’s agenda—starting with California.

If you’d like to see more of my coverage from Coast Guard Island and the all day demonstration there, check out all the photos we just posted on the MJ Instagram ✊❤️ www.instagram.com/p/DQLdlG5DkL...

Hundreds of people currently marching toward the Coast Guard Island to re-up their protest presence at the entrance of where federal agents and National Guard are being housed.

Those cars sped out and what looked like civilian CG employees later followed through—

The “civilians” they cleared the road for are the same cars that entered this morning where an escalated confrontation happened. They are alleged to be federal agents.

CHP is currently pushing people out of the entrance to Coast Guard Island, Alameda, California, where ICE agents and federal guard are being housed. They’ve been asked to clear the street so “civilians” can leave the base. Unclear what they mean by “civilians” and won’t offer more information.

Heavy California Highway Patrol presence that just showed up in Alameda, California, with what we can confirm is about 30 or more sitting outside the perimeter seemingly waiting to be called in. They’re calling for protesters to move out of the road to clear the way for people to exit the base.

Guards kept having to turn away cause they were laughing/smiling at the chicken.

Protester praying on the "government property" line where US Coast Guard security is currently holding the perimeter. You can see on the ground pieces of the a car and the flash grenade that was used in an earlier altercation as alleged ICE agents tried to enter the facility.

Scenes and signs from the entrance to Coast Guard Island, where National Guard and federal agents are being housed. Protesters and faith leaders have been here since the early hours of the morning, blocking the one entrance on and off the island.

"Why did the chicken cross the road? To stop a fascist regime." The inflatable resistance continues from Portland, Oregon to the Alameda, California.

We've got reporters and producers out in the field today as federal immigration agents start amassing in the Bay Area. Follow us for more updates.

I’m currently at the entrance to Coast Guard Island where National Guard troops and ICE agents are being housed prior to their deployment on the Bay Area. Couple hundred people are here blocking access in and out. Lots of faith leaders here who are praying at the edge of the property line.

We got you covered: www.youtube.com/shorts/-hnAt...

While hospitals across the country were falling apart, leaving patients in crisis and facilities severely understaffed, a shocking campaign to silence and surveil critics was underway. Read @h-lev.bsky.social and @acleek.bsky.social's latest investigation into Medical Properties Trust.

i can't (i can) believe that "poop video" is central to this week's most important political discourse. they are making a mockery of us and our country

Thousands already out at Portland’s No Kings rally before all the marches even joined together at the waterfront.

Talked to some folks here in Oakland...

lol please watch this with sound

Such extremism! So much terror!

Huge shout out to @peter-berger.bsky.social for producing and editing this incredible mini-documentary!

We just dropped a major new investigation with partners @lighthousereports.com and a dozen other international partners, uncovering a vast surveillance empire whose untraceable tech has been used to target people in more than 100 countries, including the US. WATCH: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfWy...

The undercover footage in this video... just wow. Our new massive international investigation into a surveillance company selling untraceable tech that can find you anywhere. Every view and comment on this helps get in front of more eyes—and that means we can keep doing this work! Thank you!!

EXCLUSIVE: This tech has been used to track heads of state, journalists, and maybe even you. @lighthousereports.com uncovered a vast surveillance empire whose untraceable tech has been used to target people in more than 100 countries. It has operated under the radar for decades. Until now.

I am once again asking... does anyone in the Trump administration know what habeas corpus is?

Scientists once predicted meat-making machines on every kitchen counter, but so far cultured meat has only been seen at a handful of restaurants. Some states have already banned it for reasons that include “global elites” and “bugs.” Why? Let's dig in 🍔

instagram food video but make it journalism

I am just so fucking proud of her.

Trump is escalating his desire to see troops in the streets of Democratic cities—and Portland, Oregon is just the latest. @kevinhfoster.bsky.social reports from the city Trump says is "war-ravaged." But as Foster shows... that narrative is all in Trump's head.

Ahem the guy who invented the term "evidence based medicine" just rebuked the most prominent anti-trans health lobby group in the world www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The anti-trans right heavily praised Gordon Guyatt as the “godfather” of evidence based medicine. He worked for SEGM and was responsible for their GRADE reviews. Now he disavows them, says evidence supports transgender youth care. Great coverage from Henry carnell.

“There are people who have real benefits [from this care],” said Guyatt. “To deny it to people, to make people suffer unnecessarily, that’s another type of harm.” Well, when you lose the godfather of evidence-based medicine... @hencarnell.bsky.social has an incredible report. Check it out:

For years, medical professionals and transgender advocates have been saying the "Society for Evidence-based Gender Medicine" was not following the principles of evidenced-based medicine. Now the "godfather" of evidence-based medicine is leveraging the same claim against them. (1/)

This was a great interview and a fascinating read. I had never heard of Hasan Piker before (I’d hardly heard of Pike), but he is incredibly thoughtful.

VIDEO EXCLUSIVE: The progressive streaming icon Hasan Piker spoke with @juliametraux.bsky.social and @samveep.bsky.social about how to be “honest about the role that Charlie Kirk played.” "It’s a dishonest assessment to refuse to reckon with some of those opinions that he was very proud of." WATCH

VIDEO EXCLUSIVE: Hasan Piker on Charlie Kirk and the need for "radical empathy." @juliametraux.bsky.social and I spoke with uber-popular progressive streamer just 48 hours after Kirk's death about everything from his own safety to content vs. debate to how we can course correct from this moment.

“The first interaction that many…have with Charlie Kirk is going to be, from these reputable institutions, a completely whitewashed perspective.” My colleague @samveep.bsky.social and I spoke with Hasan Piker for @motherjones.com this morning. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

NEW: No, Charlie Kirk was not practicing politics the right way. That's what Ezra Klein said. We can condemn this heinous assassination but also recognize that with his 2020 election denialism and extremist rhetoric, Kirk built his movement with falsehoods and in a wrong and divisive manner.
