JD Vance invoking "blood libel" is dangerous and wrong. He is using a term with a specific, horrific history tied to centuries of antisemitic violence. Weaponizing it for political attacks undermines the fight against actual antisemitism.

BREAKING: We're investigating Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s unprecedented gathering of top military leaders. President Trump’s pattern of misusing military forces and lack of transparency is cause for concern. We're demanding answers for the American people.

It’s no secret I’m obsessed with “Wild Faith”. I recommend it daily. A book I DO NOT RECOMMEND “God, The Rod, & your Child’s Bod.” h/t to @swordsjew.bsky.social & a brilliant exposé on Christian parenting books. When Kirk said “submit to your husband” the “or else” and the beating is implied.

When someone claims that US overly invests into UN.. Show them this picture. This is UNHQ.

As I was saying…

There’s this thing called authenticity…and you see, in order to have it, you have to actually be a human and respect your fellow human beings, not dehumanize and characterize them and their culture into a costume. 🧵

Arizona is highly likely to elect a new Democratic House member in a special election Tuesday. Adelita Grijalva plans to become the 218th and clinching supporter of a bipartisan effort to force public disclosure of the Jeffrey Epstein files. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Democrat Adelita Grijalva will win a special election in Arizona’s 7th Congressional District, CNN’s Decision Desk projects, which will deliver the decisive signature to the push for a vote to release the Jeffrey Epstein case files.

If you have any thing to give please consider giving to mutual aid to one of the kindest, caring, most intelligent humans I know. He’s having a rough year & just lost his beloved cat, too. This is America, tho…#crowdfunding for transportation to survive. Help get him to his goal today! 👍 & share 💙

No one is covering the threats to our democracy like the 20-person team at Democracy Docket. No venture capital, no corporate overloads, no compromises. Just pro-democracy news, information and analysis. Help support their efforts to hold power to account and keep you informed. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

I’ve been sayin this for months…!

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database. Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away. The cruelty is the point.

I’m autistic. Not because of Tylenol. Not because of vaccines. Not because of some headline. I’m autistic because that’s how my brain works. Stop treating us like a problem. Start listening to us.

The special election tomorrow in #AZCD07 will deliver the last vote needed to force a vote in the House to release #Epstein files

The same guy who was addicted to heroin for 14 years – who works for a guy who has an *ongoing*, decades-long, severe cocaine and Adderall addiction – are both trying to tell you that Acetaminophen is bad for you. Don't believe them.

Jimmy’s back. Now do Karen Attiah. IYKYK.

New year holiday #Rosh_Hashanah, Israeli families of hostages and their relatives & supporters are doing the holiday outside of Prime Minister Netanyahu residence in Jerusalem 👇

How it started How it’s going Trump rolls back housing discrimination laws he once violated edition

We just saw 4 years of Biden claiming he’s “hopeful” GOP will do the right thing per tradition, while clinging on to power too long—Trump won. And learning nothing, Chuck Schumer says he “hopes” Trump will do the right thing per tradition, while clinging on to power too long. We know how this ends.

May this Rosh Hashanah, a time that represents the creation of the universe, bring renewed energy to our fight for a different reality for everyone, Jews and Palestinians, on this land.

People flooded the streets of Italy in several cities, demanding the recognition of the Palestinian state and an end to the genocide in Gaza.

Former USAID/Global Health Staffer Leah Petit has started a podcast, Global Development Interrupted, sharing the stories of former USAID staff and the work they did. Please take a look and share!

USDA just terminated the food insecurity survey. Read their press release and tell me this isn’t politically motivated. www.usda.gov/about-usda/n...

“The confluence of crypto, fitness, right-wing populism, and misogyny is not accidental. This is a culture that sees all human relations as forms of hypercapitalist competition.” — @harikunzru.bsky.social on Adolescence

This is why it was completely insane for Dems to laugh off the Twitter purchase. We created a forum with practically every single political and media elite all in the same room together hearing the same things, and then we turned it over to a far-right oligarch

My humble thanks to Reverend Adolphus C. Lacey and First Lady Cheryl Matthews Lacey for welcoming me at Bethany Baptist Church in Bed-Stuy this morning.

NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable. This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed. From me for @rollingstone.com: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Two years later, Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel are canceled‼️ It’s part of the pattern we’ve seen before; discredit the critics, control the media, and chip away at dissent until only obedience is left‼️Stewart’s words were a warning and it’s happening now‼️

The President, in a now deleted post, made clear his intent to have his DOJ prosecute his critics, just days after his FCC Chair illegally abused his authority to try to get Jimmy Kimmel fired. Trump and his cronies are trying to dismantle our democracy. We must stand up and fight back.

So, THIS is happening "Rewild the Internet: How to Resist Big Tech" will be published by Simon & Schuster in NY and Bloomsbury in London. Every bit of power we take from Big Tech takes it away from autocrats like Trump. Showing how is what I'm doing to meet this moment. (tk u @robin.berjon.com)

If a Democratic governor talks about punching people in the mouth, he is obviously filled with insatiable bloodlust. If a Republican president talks about punching people in the mouth, you’re the violent one for thinking he was being serious.

WOW -- a screaming Patel crashes out in response to Schiff's questions about Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and calls him "the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States Senate" and "an utter coward" and "political buffoon"

Reminder: Tomorrow at 10am Eastern, the Senate will hear testimony from Dr. Monarez (former CDC director, recently fired by 🧠🪱) and Dr. Houry (recently resigned over 🧠🪱's destruction of gold standard CDC science) Catch the livestream at www.help.senate.gov/hearings/res...

Entire countries are having their medical support cut off by America. International Relations expert Dr. Walter Ladwig joins Jacob to have his say on the devastating effects of USAID being dissolved. Latest episode out now ➡️ linktr.ee/americanfriction #uspolitics #trump #shorts

Once again, between actions such as defunding USAID and now this, it is actually impossible to overstate how the present administration is sowing decades of suffering and death that were entirely avoidable. Their entire raison d‘etre is to create conflict.

The dismantling of USAID has forced the abandonment of thousands of aid projects, flushing away millions of dollars worth of food and medicine. @hana-kiros.bsky.social talks about what is happening to lifesaving supplies and services across the globe. podcast.publichealth.jhu.edu/947-taxpayer...

Elon Musk gloated over singlehandedly destroying USAID He made MILLION DOLLARS yesterday, today, tomorrow and every day for rest of his life Meanwhile BBC NEWS showing segment this morning where BABY after BABY after BABY in Afghanistan is SUFFERING and DYING in hospitals from nutrition cutoff now

"Your colonial suffering is irrelevant! And you should be grateful to the colonial overlords for all the nice things they gave you!" Thank you, this is very anti-colonialist of you! You sound like a MAGA. And when Russians do colonialism for 500 years it's not "actual colonialism"? Curious!

No Settlements! Needs to be the rally cry for every press outlet, university, business, law firm, nonprofit, and other entity that is targeted by the regime. Settlements sell us all out.

As Trump and the GOP transfer trillions from bottom to top — “the wealthiest in 🇺🇸 have never been wealthier” When @marshablackburn says we’re thriving, this is who she means. www.forbes.com/forbes-400/

This morning, the United Nations Commission of Inquiry concluded that the Israeli government is committing genocide — affirming what Palestinians and experts have been saying for nearly two years.

JD Vance once said that Trump could be “America’s Hitler.”

Democratic elected officials, here's some unsolicited advice. People are looking for leadership. Right now. This moment. Someone, anyone, take the konch and forcefully respond to JD Vance and Stephen Miller's promise to declare war against America. Speak up now. Press conference today.

I DISSENT. We live in a country where 6 members of the highest court of the land decided it’s ok to profile immigrants based on the color of their skin or the language they speak. I DISSENT. #IDISSENT

www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/r... and there's a parallel asymmetry in the base of the parties.

It’s long past time that I take responsibility for what I wrote on Israel/Palestine in ON REPENTANCE AND REPAIR. & with the Gaza genocide, our thinking about what amends & healing may ever involve is even more urgent. Even if there may never be “forgiveness” or “atonement.”

I really do think Ezra Klein needs to be held to account for why he gets to keep his columnist job, as a white man, for saying CK was "practicing politics the right way" while Karen Attiah, a Black woman, loses her columnist job for quoting what CK said about Black women. Someone, plz ask him.
