"You were telling Muslim and Arab audiences, Trump will be better on [Gaza] - and he hasn't been better." I challenged Bishara Bahbah, founder of 'Arab Americans for Trump', and Trump's unofficial mediator with Hamas, on 'Mehdi Unfiltered' today. Full, lively interview: zeteo.com/p/mehdi-bish...

Hi, @hipcinema.bsky.social ! How’s #BlackStarFest IRL? #phillyfilm Watch watching the #ToniCadeBambara #documentaaryfilm when it froze about halfway. What fabulous #filmmaking! Of course, we expect nothing less from LouisMassiah and ScribeVideo. 😍 (Chatted with Help and expect to finish watching.)

“Bambara was clear,” Massiah said over email. “She prophesizes in the film that a festival gathering like BlackStar is crucial for the kind of society that we’re trying to build.” cc @hipcinema.bsky.social

This is really disturbing.

North Carolina gerrymandered its state for the 2024 election-giving Republicans a majority in the House They used it to pass Trump’s Big Ugly Bill In return, he refused to release $100 million in funds pre-approved to help NC victims of Hurricane Helene Because-for Trump-loyalty goes only one way

The HONEST Act is long overdue. GET IT PASSED! Ban members of Congress, the president, and the vice president from buying stock. 📌 Rep. Rob Bresnahan pulled off $7 million in stock trades in just 7.5 months in office.

I'd like to read a novel about a charismatic, interesting, hot mess of a woman who systematically tries to get her shit together, doesn't solve every problem, but makes serious headway

That Kamala interview was heart breaking because it's one of the few times that I've ever seen a national political figure say the system is broken and that trying to work within it to change things probably wont work.

A beautiful message of solidarity from Sesame Street.

Recently ICE agents appeared on a Little League field in Manhattan. Coach Youman Wilder told a group of kids who were being interrogated to get behind him and said to the officers, “You don’t have more rights than they do.”

Where the f**k was all this reporting from the Times & the Journal on Trump & the world’s most famous child rapist in 2016, 2020, & 2020? Where were the effing Dems & their oppo research? How on earth has it taken this long for this stuff to come out?

And don't forget to sign them up for the Imagination Library, which is Dolly Parton's free book delivery service. They send 1 book per month until the child turns 5. 😊

Our assignment? Take government back from corporations. Capitalism doesn’t serve US. (It’s not designed to.) We must build movements (labor, climate, racial & gender equity, peace) that exercise our collective power. BE UNGOVERNABLE! ✊🏼✊✊🏾 @graceblakeley.substack.com, author of Vulture Capitalism

Trump has 0 interest in fighting sex trafficking, or protecting the young from sexual abuse. If he did, he would not have invited these 2 deplorables into our country. Even if he releases the Epstein files now, you will not be able to trust that the files are not manipulated by Bondi. #Pinks #OneV1

I don’t care about the Epstein Files as much as I want to know who ordered the murder of Jeffrey Epstein. #OneV1 #ProudBlue #Pinks

Whatever is in the Epstein files has them completely panicked.

GET THESE THINGS OUT OF YOUR FUCKING HOMES

Israel’s government needs to be stopped, toppled and completely revamped. Everything they do is done in OUR name, with OUR money, and OUR resources. I am sick of feeling complicit in their violent, unethical actions.

Donate only to candidates with no ties AIPAC. The Israel lobby must no longer infect the left. We need representatives to fight for OUR country and OUR people, not a foreign land with an aggrieved electorate which votes for authoritarians who murder their neighbors.

Sun Herald: ICE has launched an investigation into the death of Canadian citizen Johnny Noviello. He was reportedly found unresponsive at a Federal Detention Center in Miami, marking the 10th death in ICE custody this year & the 4th in Florida. #ProudBlue #TrumpisaNationalDisgrace

I’m not saying the Epstein & Colbert stories are distractions. They’re not. But let’s also keep our eye on the bureaucratic evils unfolding under the radar. This Texas state senator calls out her GOP colleagues for using the legislative session to create LISTS of citizens (in May). Please watch 🚨

The most corrupt Supreme Court ever. No contest. MAGA court makes us look more dystopian than any third world country.

@lulaoficialbluesky.bsky.social underlines to @camanpour.bsky.social that #Trump was elected as president of the United States, not as 'emperor of the world'. #Brasil #Multilateralism @itamaratygovbr.bsky.social The full interview with #Lula👇

Texas gerrymandering will get us all. “All the Democrats… are for independent redistricting without gerrymandering… We do not get there by blue states having commissions and then rewarding red states for not having them. There has to be a cost.” — @repcasar.bsky.social

Gaza is being starved.

There are still tons of amazing, beautiful people in this world. Seek out the helpers & the healers right now. They will help us get through these times.

Republicans in TX have always won by cheating. Redistricting - redrawing electoral districts every 10 years to reflect population changes & ensure closely equal representation Gerrymandering - manipulating voting districts to favor a political party & suppress votes usually for racist reasons

Mike Johnson can't seem to make up his mind. Is he for or against pedophiles?
