The war zone in Portland is out of control.

Protestors are asked to wear the colour yellow to increase visibility and uniformity. If you have extra yellow tape, clothes, or ribbons help distribute it to others. For example, you can cut old shirts and make arm bands or head bands. #3E #NoKings #50501Movement #indivisible #wearetheflood

Sen. Sanders: No, Speaker Johnson, the #NoKings rally on Oct. 18 is not a hate America rally. It’s a Love America Rally. It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in our Constitution, in the American Freedom, and who’s not gonna let you or Trump turn this country into an authoritarian society.

A few steps forward, a few steps back, sometimes no real movement. Syria is slowly but surely unlearning Assad. youtube.com/watch?v=zJoX...

Israel promueve la liberación de militantes yihadists y se niega a liberar a los líderes de la resistencia laica. Lo mismo hizo Assad en Siria, favoreciendo la liberación de los fundamentalistas. La táctica de cuanto peor, mejor.

Israel bombed south Lebanon overnight This is what Israel means by ceasefire

PORTLAND: “The frogs are multiplying” (#NotAWarZone Noem Matter what Kristi says)

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

Israel has mandatory universal, socialist healthcare. USA politicians claim America can’t afford it, while they ship trillions to Israel

Summary of the Trump admin's comms: Iran may have nuclear weapons but our intelligence shows they do not but they probably do but we have the best intelligence in the world but our intelligence is probably wrong and we're not going to ask why our intelligence is wrong but it probably is.

I’m sure others have said it before: the most powerful man on earth is not Donald Trump. It’s Benjamin Netanyahu, leading the US by the nose.

NEW: Gov. Hochul announces that the state is dedicating $50 million for legal assistance for immigrants like those who may be targeted by ICE when leaving the federal courthouse

She inhaled trace amounts of empathy and her body went into anaphylactic shock.

To recap—the only nation that’s ever used nuclear weapons on civilians, is backing a nation that has 200 nuclear weapons yet denies their existence, to threaten a nation that doesn’t have any nuclear weapons with annihilation if it doesn’t unconditionally surrender its sovereignty Are we great yet?

NEW: A far-right ‘Appeal to Heaven’ flag was flown above the Small Business Administration's headquarters in DC. The flag, a popular symbol for Christian nationalists, was waved by January 6 rioters and spotted at Justice Samuel Alito's vacation home. from me and @telliotter.bsky.social:

the lesson of this isn't that tucker carlson is actually good but that you should ask these people basic factual questions instead of bullshit about politics

At Friends cafe in Damascus. People all over carrying on, business as usual.

"Trump imagines Gaza as an empty lot up for sale. But Gaza is not just land; it's home to more than two million people."

If you’re born in America, you’re an American. Pass it on.

Ahmed al-Sharaa thanked the US president, saying the decision to lift sanctions would 'open a new chapter enabling the reconstruction of Syria', according to the Saudi Press Agency. www.ft.com/content/23af...

More than a year has passed since settlers and soldiers assaulted Palestinians and left activists in the West Bank. No one has been charged www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Honestly, #Syria should be trending now.

First picture of a freed Edan Alexander. red Cross reported to IDF he was able to walk under his own power "with help" Itay Blumenthal reports Alexander having been kept in a cage, shackled and handcuffed, alongside other hostages

Welcome to Jobar, the Damascus suburb that suffered Assad’s infamous barrel bombs. Total destruction.

I’m in a beautiful bubble in which everyone is positive and looking forward. Nobody has uttered a single sectarian word; on the contrary, the most devout Muslims I’ve met with are proud of Syria’s rich cultural, religious, and ethnic fabric - and they want to preserve it.

After an overnight layover and a multi-hour flight delay in Amman, I am maybe, hopefully, finally heading back to Damascus. 😎

Great. We have a new government. One female minister. WTF.

Like Syria doesn’t have enough problems….

Once again, Syria under attack by both Hezbollah and Israel “Hezbollah is shelling tonight the Syrian side of the border, from Zayta to Masriyah…” x.com/QalaatAlMudi... “Israeli airstrikes carried out tonight targeted area of Shinshar (S. Homs)…” x.com/QalaatAlMudi... @qalaatalmudiq.bsky.social

REMINDER: Disproportionate attacks killing civilians, including women and children, *is* a violation of international humanitarian law guide-humanitarian-law.org/content/arti... #Israel #Gaza x.com/GBNEWS/statu...

No necesitan ataques ni provocaciones ni justificaciones. La impunidad absoluta.

Enough media talk of Israel “hitting targets”. There’s no precision. The one target is Gaza, indiscriminately. An internationally-recognised genocide. And no more “fragile ceasefire” talk. It was never a ceasefire if one side refused to cease fire. Last night’s death toll: 413, many children.
