Gideon Levy says countries recognising the Palestinian state is lip service, & what they need to do is what they did to apartheid South Africa. Back BDS.

Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and they’re still miserable f*cks. Joy Reid nailed it.

"We have seen more aid arrive, particularly in terms of aid drops. What difference has that made?" James Elder from UNICEF: "Next to none.. these are distractions.. these are designed to reduce pressure from the international community"

“Yad Vashem and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum adhere to a “Palestine exception” when opposing genocide... organizations such as the ADL, use spurious accusations of antisemitism to silence or discredit those who dare to speak out.”

At the Israeli prison, US human rights defender Chris Smalls was physically assaulted by seven uniformed individuals. They choked him and kicked him in the legs. We condemn this violence against Chris and demand accountability for the assault and discriminatory treatment he faced. #BreakTheSiege

A journalist asked me what my fears were related to the global march to Gaza. This is my biggest fear, our greatest fear - that the genocide in Gaza continues with the world’s complicity and silence. This genocide must end.

Israel's genocide on Gaza must end NOW. The US funds it. Trump wants to escalate it. On April 5, we march. For Gaza. For Lebanon. For Mahmoud. For Rumeysa. marchforpalestine.org

I spoke to an expert in authoritarianism, who explained to me that things like this are extremely meaningful and they help protect democracy, even if there’s not a straight line between this and actual legislating

Let me be clear: I don't want a miniTrump/libertarian leader guiding my country thru an economic/political crisis. But I'm concerned where the current leader could take the only party that has a whiff of hope for progressivity, once elected, given who else is in the caucus. #NotAOneManShow. 1/n

“Biden’s State Department in May admitted that Israel had “likely” used US arms in violation of international law – but announced no policy change.” Read @premthakker.bsky.social's breaking story on the ICC being asked to investigate Biden and Blinken over alleged war crimes in Gaza on zeteo.com.

Billionaire co-founder of AirBnB Joe Gebbia has joined Elon Musk’s DOGE team, so let’s spread awareness and make sure nobody books a goddamn thing through AirBnB ever again, shall we?

Liberals, centrists, moderates: If you don’t know what to do to confront the fascisification of America how about funding those groups who do? Use the capitalism you love for a good cause and leave that call-your-manager energy behind. Shut up and open your wallet. At least that you can do.

Crockett: I am tired of the white tears. When you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Greene or me to Lauren Boebert, there is no comparison. So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so, so much harder
