America doesn't win wars they're only capable of massacring civilians, imposing sanctions, bombing civilian infrastructure, creating a power vacuum leading to failed states and creating refugee & humanitarian crises. That's the real world for anyone who still believes the US cares about Democracy.

"Shia Islam views martyrdom not as defeat but as the foundational mythology of resistance, deeply rooted in the historical and spiritual memory of the faith." Killing Ali Khamenei was probably the dumbest move the US and Israel could have made.

The Jeff Bezos Washington Post comes out against raising the minimum wage.

BlueSky "leftists" attacking his campaign are losers. And I don't mean that in a disparaging way. The left has no real power in the US and these folks seem hellbent on keeping it that way. The left as it exists today is a circular firing squad unable to do more than point at everything on fire.

Just noticed that @markruffalo.bsky.social is the top Drop Site evangelist (with @stelhami.bsky.social not far behind). Thanks guys!

one take after another

Today, the Oscars celebrate achievements in film—but did you know the awards were originally designed to bust Hollywood unions?

The dumbest fuck on the planet is President of the United States.

Oscar-nominated, “The Voice of Hind Rajab" is up for best international feature film. Trump barred Wesam Hamada, Hind’s mom and Motaz Malhees, an actor starring in the film, from entering the country due to their Palestinian citizenship.

Graham Platner winning in Maine will mean regular people who haven't trained to be politicians all their lives can run and win high elected office. He had me at anti-war veteran running to help working class people.

There is no longer any doubt: an American missile destroyed a school in Iran. A massacre of children. A war crime. Those responsible must be prosecuted. Hegseth must resign. And this war must end.

Over 6,000 US strikes in Iran over the last 13 days, averaging a strike every 3 minutes. But apparently we cannot afford to build more schools and hospitals in Maine. Only to bomb them overseas.

Any DC consultant who says we should throw trans kids or immigrants under the bus should be purged from the party payroll. We do not sell people out. Because a politics that is willing to sell anyone out will eventually sell everyone out.

The UK is complicit in the desecration of international law. Today, we publish the Gaza Tribunal Report — and uncover the full scale of British complicity in genocide. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

This war has once again exposed the fact that our economic system is irrational, indefensible, and fundamentally anti-human. It’s never been clearer that we really do face a choice between the end of the world and the end of capitalism. open.substack.com/pub/gracebla...

Iraq. Afghanistan. Libya. Gaza. One murderous catastrophe after another. Now the warmongers are dragging us into the calamity of the Iran war. This insanity must end.

The estimated cost of the war against Iran has already surpassed $21,000,000,000.

BREAKING: 3,800 workers at Colorado’s JBS USA, the world’s largest meatpacker, are on strike. This is the largest meatpacking strike in 40 years.

Seems like the claim that the US is not using these bases to attack Iran were, as they obviously always were, false.

Israeli forces raid the home of Palestinian prisoner Azmi Abu Hleil’s family in the town of Dura, in the occupied West Bank, forcing them to evacuate before demolishing the three-storey house.

Israeli attacks kill 13 in Gaza, including 2 children and a pregnant woman https://aje.news/fvuhv9

The director of Oscar-nominated 'The Voice of Hind Rajab', Kaouther Ben Hania, says the lead actor of her docudrama, Motaz Malhees, was prevented from attending this year's Academy Awards because of a travel ban imposed by the Trump administration.

Strike has begun, 3,800 meat packing workers in Colorado have walked off the job

Is this something

Mustafa Ali Bani Odeh (age 8) after he witnessed Israeli soldiers kill his mother, his father, and two of his brothers ages 7 and 5

U.S. military spending is set to hit a record $1.5 trillion. Roughly half of defense spending goes to private contractors that routinely price-gouge the government. Meanwhile, the Pentagon has failed EIGHT straight audits. The military industrial complex is cheering right now.

We live in a 'democracy'. Yet a power-mad madman can start a war and continue on as long as he likes, a war no one voted for, not Americans not Congress, not anybody. We don't live in a democracy. That's the problem, the people need to take control.

Mossad mirage. Make of that what you will.

Dubai is the Epstein Island of the Middle East

Palantir has no place in our NHS. The Labour government must get this Mandelson and Trump backed company out now. Listen to what health workers are saying. news.sky.com/story/nhs-ho...

3!!!! DAYS!!!!! LEFT!!!!! We're doubling down on knocking doors and calling our neighbors! Here's where you can plug in these final few days:

Those on the left who questioned support for Ukraine 🇺🇦 have been vindicated. Ukraine wants to fight the US's illegal war alongside the genocidal state of Israel.

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

this bitch is fucking craaaaazy

Kat vs. Everybody, and Kat's winning.

Medicare for All - "That's socialism!" Social Security - "That's socialism!" Debt free education - "That's socialism!" Universal childcare - "That's socialism!" $1 billion per day on a war in the Middle East that no one wants, while millions of people at home struggle. "That's just how it is."

Sodomizing a Palestinian prisoner with a knife on camera is apparently legal in Israel

Leader of a sovereign country is being illegally tortured in your city @mayor.nyc.gov

you can not blame leftists and anti-genocide protesters for kamala's loss without first explaining why asking them to stop arming and protecting a genocide was not a reasonable request.

Seattle City Council finally passed the Detention Center Moratorium

Look at the smile on his face. He's talking about Iranian children. That's the enemy. If he's allowed to walk amongst the people a free man when this is all over then we are hopeless as a country. We will never be a true democracy if nothing happens to them.

"He was vaguely saying things like, 'Really, I can help you out. I can do things for you. ...If you could, you know, give me the names of protest organizers, maybe I can help you out.'" Inside an ICE effort to generate snitches.
