Following the documented rape of a Palestinian prisoner in Sde Teyman, the military prosecutor ordered the arrest of the soldiers involved. There was govt-supported riots trying to prevent their arrest. In response, she leaked the video evidence. Now she has been removed by the Israeli govt. 1/

For 61 years the #BBCWorldService has been broadcasting the latest in science via its weekly Science in Action programme. That dies in the next half hour, with this final edition, reflecting on the fall in trust in expertise driven by malign interests over recent years.

🚨On Nov 1, the Trump admin will cut off food assistance for 42M people, including 16M kids – while continuing to fund oil & gas development. This administration is working around the clock to please its fossil fuel donors while starving families. nyti.ms/47zaxtR

This is not enough. The victims of #Epstein ‘s vile crimes deserve that HIS ACCOMPLICES are punished for their crimes, not just deprived of titles. #Andrew

Legally, this is no different from Iran sinking a Disney cruise in international waters and then saying "it's all good, they were terrorists carrying drugs." Which is to say, it's wholly illegal and has been for centuries. You couldn't even do this with a Letter of Marque and Reprisal.

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ. We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights. Help us win this fight by chipping in at katforillinois.com/legal

Wow - those are quite phenomenal headlines given the details of the story. Ahh look, he’s just a ‘nerdy’ guy. No harm done. You need to scroll down to paragraph 13 of the Sky piece to find the full story! 🧵 1/9

Rupert Murdoch-owned @thetimes.com of London completely fabricates a hit piece on @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social , gets called out by former mayor Deblasio — then deletes it.🤔

Category 5 Major Hurricane #Melissa has made landfall near New Hope in southwestern #Jamaica with winds of 185 mph.

What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible. Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

Totally untrue garbage from @thetimes.com & @dailymail.co.uk today - smear dressed up as journalism. Some facts: - There is no “£900 desk” - my constituency office has Ikea desks/chairs - we significantly underspent the new MPs allowance to set up an office www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Zack Polanski’s being trolled… and he’s wiping the floor with them. open.substack.com/pub/jujuliag...

For those of you keeping score, 18-22 year-old students calling for an end to slaughter in Gaza are so racist they need to be expelled or deported, but 24-35 year-olds celebrating Hitler, rape, and, um, racism are just kids being kids so chill. Also, racism is over so no need for Voting Right Act.

Y’all, Spotify’s stock price sunk by 5% in 1 day. YOU did this by spreading the word to boycott them for running ICE ads. These billionaires only speak one language—money—so let’s keep up the pressure. Tell everyone you know to cancel their Spotify subscriptions. Send them to BoycottSpotify.com.

OK you have to get quite a long way into this thread to find the meaty Ports/Glatch spat, but it’s worth it. Gets to the heart of journalism and the rise of fascism.

Each of these corporations has big federal contracts, is currently doing business with the Trump family, or has active antirust cases before the courts. Everything is for sale.

It's a shame that so much time and effort goes into grant applications rather than actual research.

“And this is the unfinished ballroom. We’ve left it as it was when the President was impeached, as a warning to future Presidents that they are there to serve the people not for self-aggrandisement.” And then I woke up.

In a historic first, working GP Patrick Hart has been suspended from the medical register for 10 months for his actions to sound the alarm on the climate crisis and its threats to health. Read more here: healthforxr.com/historic-fir...

@scottsantens.com FYI

We all knew Trump was going to sell out Ukraine to Putin. All his false promises - to end the war in 24 hours, to sanction Russia, provide Tomahawks, on and on. All bs. Pro-Ukraine GOP Sens & Reps suddenly silent. The US abandons allies under Trump. Putin owns Trump like a dog.

“After decades of empty words, it is time for governments, universities and public institutions to recognize that the fossil fuel industry will always be part of the problem, not the solution to the climate crisis,” [study co-author] Llavero Pasquina said. #BigOilLies #MakePollutersPay #ExxonKnew

OMG! In Comey's motion to dismiss for vindictive prosecution, he points to others who have lied to Congress that were NOT prosecuted. Number one is JEFF SESSIONS when he said "I have been called a surrogate at a time or two, but I did not have contact with the Russians." 1/

This is perhaps a mo to recall how the establishment warned off Angela Rayner when she wanted "that nonce" excluded from all public roles. The royal family does as little as possible and acts only when self-interest is threatened. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Indeed. Government's proposed ILR changes are wrong morally & politically - that is the main point. But from purely *economic* perspective, they're likely to be self-defeating - the migrants most likely to be deterred from coming/staying are high-skilled/high-paid, because they have other options!

⏱️21 mins ago "The Israeli Premier League derby between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Tel Aviv was cancelled by police after "violent riots" before kick-off." There are MANY politicians who owe West Midlands police a profound apology. List/tag them. 👇 www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Lawless but also staggeringly incompetent.

Apropos of nothing, I really do think UK journalists and politicians need some reminding that mass deportation of LEGAL immigrants, particularly those with permanent status, is far more extreme than even Trump's America and would basically place Britain completely on its own among democracies.

One of the key elements of the book Bullshit Jobs, is that many jobs are not Bullshit and essential. Those jobs are the pillars of the economy. Just the jobs are not well paid and the workers not well appreciated.

Inequality in and of itself is a driver of much of the ill in society. An absolute must read is The Spirit Level. More equal societies do better #Inequality en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Spi...

Hasan: The great irony is of course that Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant. The grandson of an immigrant and married to an immigrant. In fact two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.

My heart is full! Cary NC has turned out spectacularly for No Kings!!

We're going to make history tomorrow. #NoKings

NEW: “Bands of masked men apprehending people in broad daylight in the streets and hauling them off. Disappearing people to a third country,” a former DHS official said. “We’re at an inflection point in history right now and it’s frightening.”

"weirdo” “ridiculous” - these are the playground taunts when you have no political arguments left to make. And just like playground bullies, they come from a place of fear. Because they can see us organising and they don’t know how to respond. join.greenparty.org.uk

Please pitch in if you can to help make next Saturday the biggest day of protest in US history! We’re seeing a surge in RSVPs and we need to match that enthusiasm with the resources and support that our groups, hosts, and volunteers need: secure.actblue.com/donate/indiv...

But what about all the waste they told us about? What about all the savings DOGE was going to find? What about the promises to cut council tax? It's almost as if they were just making shit up to fool people, like they did with Brexit.
