Whoa … this is really strange. Federal law enforcement managed to confiscate almost two tons of cocaine, and arrest 3 suspects, without blowing the boat out of the water or killing anyone. 🎁 link ⤵️ www.miamiherald.com/news/local/c...

🚨Israeli soldiers murdered 2 more Palestinians today, shooting them near the invisible yellow demarcation line in northern Gaza. The army gave no evidence for why its troops needed to shoot to kill. Earlier this week, soldiers murdered 2 brothers — just 8 & 10 years old — while they were out...

🚨 I am hearing from multiple sources that the EU Commission is announcing its first DSA fine tomorrow against X on ad transparency, blue check & dark pattern, and researcher access to data. The fine is in the "100s of millions of Euros." Elon about to get big mad.

"elite capture of the fourth estate" feels like the grim answer to a lot of questions these days I gotta say they're emboldened to say this shit because they know the entire media apparatus will just hand them the mic, applaud afterwards, and tell anyone who says WTF?? to shut up

I’m still unsure about using an indictment as a document of undisputed evidence as a prelude for military action without congressional authorization, but I’m just a simple country law professor.

The guy who wrote a book called Values

“UN Resolution 2803 puts Gaza in the hands of a puppet administration, with the US as the new manager of an open-air prison, further crushing Palestine's right to self-determination and any path to peace.”

interesting to see her leaning on the argument that pro-palestinian voices are unfamiliar with the relevant history, as if any amount of historical context could justify what's happening in palestine

"Contrary to Miller and Trump, Lakanwal’s shooting spree is not the result of importing Afghan culture to America. While much will surely be revealed in Lakanwal’s upcoming trial, it looks more like the result of importing American culture to Afghanistan." New from me @zeteo.com

Hegseth: "How can soldiers possibly evaluate whether a given order is illegal?!" Also Hegseth: "No witnesses."

And before any of you start,

Ben Gvir promotes head of unit involved in executing two Palestinians, and calls for an end to investigations into the killings of Palestinians

every neoliberal policy analyst wants to "trim the fat" of society until the lean times come. community level resilience, redundancies, etc are good actually

I’d get reading and research resources for my class, take them on field trips—though I imagine a gov’t that would provide UBI would also fund education adequately.

Americans who saw through the propaganda for war in the middle east but now fully buy into it for regime change in Venezuela are the weirdest. That’s like managing to pull your head out of your ass, taking a deep breath, and then shoving it right back in there.

"This fucking sucks" and "all is lost" are two different sentences. Don't say the second when you mean the first.

Yep. Exactly this. If a prof isn't willing to do the work to track and punish AI use, they're giving students a green light to use it. I firmly believe that it is deeply unethical for professors to put students who don't cheat at a disadvantage in relation to those who do.

"My illegal occupation has made the locals angry, and then I shot the locals, and now the locals are angrier, and now I will expand my illegal occupation, and for some reason they're even angrier!"

He look guilty as sin or am I just reading into it? 🤔 It's "stick to sports" when players speak on issues, but never "stick to sports" when they promote harmful things. Everything is political. This is a choice and it speaks volumes! Hope folks are listening.

Israel Moved Gaza’s Yellow Line And Then Shelled Palestinians For Being On The Wrong Side They just keep finding new ways to carve off more pieces of Gaza and murder more Palestinians. www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/israel-mov...

we're going to win

Palestinians face renewed killings, raids and settler attacks as Israel pushes past agreed ceasefire lines.

It's so blatantly disingenuous. Because of course Mazzig isn't suggesting that the West Bank be given back to Jordan, he just wants an excuse to deny Palestinians civil and political rights in the country they actually live in.

they were "controversial" for murdering palestinians at their food distribution sites.

Buen día.🌾🐢

"Funerals have been held across Gaza, after Israel launched a wave of air strikes there on Saturday, in another breach of the ceasefire. Palestinians were attacked in their cars, homes and makeshift shelters." youtu.be/p4tvwExc89Q?...

“We might not get told much as prisoners, and we’re often the last to know anything pertaining to ourselves, but what is clear as day is that what is being criminalized is not “extremism,” but the Palestinian identity itself.”

Well well well, not so easy to find an interagency that doesn't suck shit after all, huh

2 of my favourite bits from Cait's article: #1: bsky.app/profile/grum...

Not nations, people. She said it, the media was helping deliver a specific narrative.

Fake story.

The public simultaneously wants ultra-harsh punishment for rapists in the abstract and also thinks most rape is a made-up feminist conspiracy.

They stole nine of my books. Nine! But why not Doppelganger? Not good enough for these mass doppelganger machines?

This one is a banger people

Ryan Grim (@ryangrim.bsky.social) told Piers Morgan that “Cartel de los Soles’” is “the most obvious CIA-made-up name ever.” If the US wants to find its creators, he said, “pull up GPS and drive to Langley.” Grim explains that Marco Rubio, shut out of Ukraine & Gaza, now sees Venezuela as his...
