NBC: “This new U.N.-commissioned report carried out by a committee of independent experts says Israeli troops deliberately shot at Palestinian children and carried out genocide and war crimes… over 21,000 children died.”

Brother the reason they were elected is you haven't solved the problems. Some might even say you've contributed to them

For those who struggle with the geography, Netanyahu's primary political rival wants to annex the orange

this is one of the funniest sentences I’ve ever read

i love olivia reingold so much. she's a top contender for dumbest "journalist" in the entirety of human history

when I say "bring back shame" this is what I'm talking about

The way they are uncritically reporting this blatant obvious lie is proof that the mainstream media is long past any hope of redemption

I assimilated all the way to Congress and this idiot still tells me to go back where I came from.

AND the enduring legacy of Obama the President is that Obama the Candidate was full of shit! He didn't want to change anything significant in a way that would last.

This is in response to Mamdani criticizing AIPAC, and I wanted to point out an awful, bitter irony. There are *absolutely* people conflating AIPAC and all Jews to tar all Jews with AIPAC’s sins, but this post conflates AIPAC and all Jews *to keep people from criticizing AIPAC*.

This is an incredibly narrow and strikingly *non-originalist* reading of the meaning of "commerce" but then Justice Thomas isn't an originalist as much as he is an antisocial crank in robes.

IMPORTANT to know that the vast majority of Haitians with TPS entered the country legally at ports of entry, not illegally. The majority have NEVER violated the law. The admin stripped their status by breaking the law, but today SCOTUS says courts can't do anything about that.

Kagan points out in the dissent here that Alito is too much of a coward to even put Trump’s supposedly non-racist statements in his opinion.

lmao

We invited them here because their home countries are dangerous. Trump unilaterally decided they no longer are. The State Dept. still designates both as “do not travel.” The Haitian national soccer team had to play all its qualifying games on the road. Lots of the people they deport will die.

Once again, the core belief of these assholes is that they get to be assholes and you can't be mean back at them.

Justice Alito even asked a smartass question during the Temporary Protected Status oral argument the other day like 'what does non-white immigrants even mean? Are Greeks white? What about southern Italians?' ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/supre...

Left: Justice Alito's description of the record in the TPS case Right: Former Secretary Noem

the way it works is that if i say, "i'm a black american," sam alito thinks that is "dividing people up by race." but if someone says, "get that jigaboo out of my country," alito thinks, "looks like nothing to me"

easily the most censorial time of my life right now, no one in charge really seems to give a shit though

Fauci needs to sue this man into bankruptcy, if only to dissuade the other inveterate liars of this administration.

A cartoonist named Daniel "Des" Rolando Sanchez Estrada was tried as a terrorist and sentenced to 30 years in prison for having anti-Trump comics in his car. Prosecutors connected him to a 2025 anti-ICE protest he didn't even attend because he was in the same book club as others who were.

went down to the centrist convention. they’re all shaking and crying, I heard one guy say “I’m starting to think a better world IS possible.” the lady next to him slapped him in the face

Two years after Darializa Avila Chevalier took part in the Gaza solidarity encampment at Columbia University, she is now set to represent the district in which the university is located in Congress.

good to see this. Musk is clearly getting visibly angry at the rising awareness of how many hundreds of thousands of people his DOGE wilding spree has already killed, millions more if this stays in place into the future. Everyone can participate in spreading the word about all the blood on his hands

I get that he's doing a bit on some level, but it's hard to ignore how much this is just antisemitism with the labels swapped

It seems somewhat bad that the richest man in the world can use his money to bankrupt individuals or organizations -- including officials who are tasked with holding him accountable -- that accurately point out that his actions plausibly facilitated the deaths of millions.

Elon Musk was personally banning accounts on Twitter based on Ngo's recommendations

Where does this idea that AIPAC spending is a "rounding error" come from?

Occasionally on ClearSky seeing who has blocked me lately, a bad habit but it's never anyone I care about. A solid cohort of the latest ones are people who seem to think that criticism of Democrats for paving the road (intentionally or not) to Trump means we think they're all as bad as Trump. 🤷‍♂️

also as an aside, calling me a "well-known criminal" is libelous. i have no criminal record and have not been found guilty of a crime in any court of law.

some background on the dialog leak, uuh sorry i mean, international hacker conspiracy or whatever dialogs lawyers are calling it again

7th Cir., 2-1, upholds an injunction to stop the Florida AG from pursuing a state court action against the American Academy of Pediatrics for its advocacy for gender-affirming care. Held: bc investigation appears to be in bad faith, Younger does not apply. media.ca7.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/Opin...

r/raisedbynarcissists I (14m) visited my father (48m) recently after years of no contact due to him being a narc, and it turns out he only sent for me because he needs someone to pilot a robot.

This sentencing is a direct result of war on terror "material support" laws. "Without material support, numerous perpetrators would go undetected because they did not completely carry out a violent act. To prevent an attack, material support statutes are essential in prosecuting potential actors."

Today is a momentous day for the workers of Arena! After months of planning, waiting and organizing, our dream is finally a reality; the votes have been counted, and our union of UWOTC-CWA has been officially elected. From this day forward, we have a union!

If the president has the power to veto a bill by congress reigning in a war he committed without congressional approval, then by what standard does a president have to seek congressional approval to go to war. Like this would be an entirely fake idea

Oh gee really there's no evidence for the ridiculous lies from the huge liar who lies all the time? Even after those claims were repeated verbatim by big news outlets who constantly lend credibility to the huge liar's obvious and constant lies? Damn wow that's fucked up man

Because it’s non-ideological so pathologically “both sides” brained reporters can finally go at him without their shock collars going off

No Dem candidate anywhere should be taken seriously unless they can answer a Yes or No "should the people sentences today be pardoned" question correctly, and any journalist not asking that question when given opportunity isn't worthy of the term

It now costs more to cause climate change than to prevent it

Very good (and frankly conservative) demands from pro-Pali organizers in the United Kingdom towards the next Prime Minister, who will presumably be Andy Burnham.

Trump's direct control over the DOJ is especially dangerous bc federal criminal law is completely insane and typically just reflects whatever mass delusion congress was under at the time the law passed. it leaves a huge toolbox of poorly written laws and draconian sentencing for Trump to play with.

i kid you not: this is essentially the stuff you see on Russian state TV about Ukraine

The ideology in question is opposing fascism. This horrific action is a shot across the bow at all of us—everyone who cares about their neighbors, who dares to dream of a better world, who opposes ICE terror and authoritarian repression. We cannot allow the state to disappear them.

It’s worth noting as a comparison that there was only one group at the 2017 “Unite the Right” rally in Virginia — the Rise Above Movement — that faced federal criminal charges related to the riot.

“In my country America, child rapists are given 30 days in jail and people protesting concentration camps are given life in prison”

"[Labour is] banning conversion therapy!" BZZZZT. Wrong! Labour is actually forcibly detransitioning trans teens. That's the opposite of "banning conversion therapy," you goofy dope. assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...

The point of "material support" and similar terrorism laws is to prosecute people BEFORE they do anything. Sounds like pre-crime, you might think. Everything was justified for the Global War on Terror. Few lawyers and politicians listened to the few people who said it was a bad idea.
