A Bigger Wave (1989) Bye David, RIP.

What The WoundsTell: Doctors in Gaza observed a disturbing pattern: children with a single gunshot wound to the head or chest, a sign that they were shot at deliberately.

Claims and ideas which happen to favour the ruling class don't dominate public life by accident. They're paid for by oligarchs and corporations then promoted by media outlets other oligarchs and corporations own. Once they've been drummed into our ears enough, they're internalised as "common sense".

DW: According to Lebanese health authorities, simultaneous Israeli strikes killed 303 people and injured 1,150 on Wednesday. Doctors Without Borders confirmed a mass influx of injured patients, including children, at Rafik Hariri Public Hospital in Beirut.

for sure, congratulations to magyar. but the real heroes imo are those in civil society & journalism & rank-and-file opposition & academia who have fought against the disintegration of rule of law, the weaponization of the courts/media, & so much more for so long. 🇭🇺

136 seats out of 199 despite all of Orbán’s efforts to gerrymander the election … That’s enough - if Magyar’s party stays united - to change the constitution.

The words you are looking for Vance are fuck yeah! "Election result 'painful for us, but clear,' Orbán says as he concedes defeat"

Hungary election live. We are now at 21.54%, so getting close to a quarter of all votes, and Tisza is currently projected to get 128 seats – just short of the 133 needed for the 2/3 majority – to Fidesz’s 62 and Mi Hazank’s 8.

Hungary sees a record early turnout of 3.46% by 7:00, almost double the previous election, as Orban’s Fidesz faces Peter Magyar’s Tisza party. Magyar is leading in polls ahead of the vote. #Hungary

Reposting this thread for one last time. Early morning participation is already at record high, on track for a record turnout. Happy voting! 🇭🇺

We need a European armed forces but note the US has consistently opposed an independent European armed forces capability for decades no matter who is in office... Mark Quisling Rutte continues this tradition

Politico polling of six EU countries shows 36.5% on average now see the US as a threat vs 31% for China Most wary of China: France, Belgium and Poland. Most wary of the US: Spain, Italy, Belgium

The Hungarian election is about Russian oligarchy and its support of the international far right. That’s why Vance is there. He is a node in that network.

More journocide by Israel in Gaza Netanyahu would murder truth

A victorious Péter Magyar would face intense opposition from all those who benefited from (Orbán’s) mafia state. Governing against these incumbents will be hard. But replacing them could be even harder. An opposition victory would be the first battle in a long war.

Because we all need something amazing today. #artemisII

Fingers crossed

At least 112 people killed and 837 wounded by Israeli strikes across Lebanon today in an initial death toll issued by Lebanese Ministry of Health. Death toll expected to rise as rubble is cleared and overwhelmed hospitals report more figures.

Bibi’s butchers blow up blocks of Beirut apartment buildings. Have to hit their war crimes quota for April, I suppose.

It's like watching Prime Minister Chamberlain deal with the Nazis.

This could be one to watch in EU China relations China has implemented a new regulation on supply chain security that hands officials the power to punish any entities deemed to threaten the country’s access to vital resources
