“More than 150,000 civilians are thought to have been killed, almost 12 million people have been forcibly displaced and multiple areas are beset by famine.“ Both the SAF and the RSF have systematically targeted and murdered indigenous tribes and anyone who looks non-Arab - i.e. Black Africans.

Hi! Reminder that Australia has very strict gun laws! If you are focusing on gun violence and ignoring the antisemitism, you need to look inward and ask yourself why.

The video of this man going after one of the gunman and taking away the weapon brought me to tears.

I am unfortunately not surprised that the latest slaughter of Jewish people happened in Australia. Anyone with a critically-thinking brain and access to social media has seen some seriously virulent antisemitic 💩 come out of there - the slogans at “parades”, rhetoric, etc.

Bring. back. Michael. Eisner.

Former officials say that criminal investigators (and tools) have been directed to go after immigrants — potentially leaving other crimes unaddressed. Meanwhile, internal privacy and civil liberties oversight has been sidelined, leading to an increased risk of their misuse.

Also, this is an invitation to international criminals, just like these kinds of program are everywhere else

Under the Senate Republican ACA plan, premium payments would still more than double next year. Healthy people could be better off in a high deductible plan with a health savings account. People who are sick would face big premium increases or a deductible they can't afford.

Hard mode? Pfffffft

New from 404 Media: a man has been charged for allegedly wiping a Google Pixel phone before CBP could search it. Search was by a CBP Tactical Terrorism Response Team, which ACLU says "interrogate innocent travelers." Man is described as an activist online www.404media.co/man-charged-...

Reminder that Qatar already controls Al Jazeera and is Hamas’ benefactor. The Saudi component speaks for itself….as do the Ellisons and Kushner….

The current ACA debate is the rerun of a movie we’ve seen many times. Democrats want more spending to make health care more affordable. Republicans want less spending and regulation and more people in lower premium high deductible insurance plans with health spending accounts.

This!

Thread on the huge shift in US policy towards Russia visible in the new National Security Strategy - the biggest change since the collapse of the USSR. 🧵

Yikes

The most common number given for the number of Russian-kidnapped Ukrainian children is 19,546, tracked from February 2022. The actual number of stolen Ukrainian children could be anywhere from 150,000 to 300,000. Yes. You read that right (check the article for more info).

Reminder that Russia still has nearly 20,000 kidnapped Ukrainian children

I relate to this way too much

While "peace" negotiations continue, remember that Russia could simply stop the war at any time.

For 36 years, leaders from both parties have recognized this day. But this year, Donald Trump didn’t think it was even worth a few minutes of his time. Instead, his administration is slashing lifesaving funding and stripping essential resources from the very people who depend on them.   (2/3)

New from 404 Media: Flock is using overseas gig workers to build its surveillance AI. Flock has cameras in thousands of communities around the US which can detect vehicles and people. We found gig workers in the Philippines are reviewing footage to classify people www.404media.co/flock-uses-o...

This is really cool

The @neorsd.org knows all about this

Today marks 55 years since the murder of Ukrainian artist Alla Horska. Over half a century later, Horska’s life is a lasting symbol of the resistance against Russia’s centuries-long campaign to destroy Ukrainian culture.
