Part of the Chanukah tradition is to place the light menorah either outside or in a window where outsiders can see it. This is supposed to advertise the miracle of Chanukah. These days, it is also a way of saying, “This is a Jewish home.” Every year I think about how it is also an act of bravery.

Democratic leadership didn’t want to stick their necks out for him. The GOP didn’t want him even referred to as a “Maryland man.” Sen. Chris Van Hollen, his congressional representative fought for him. And we should never forget any of this. apnews.com/article/abre...

Thank prize-winning peacenik Trump for putting the “fire” in “ceasefire”

There's a post over on Twitter that I've been laughing to myself about. Some right-wing guy is celebrating that a school took down "All-Gender" bathroom signs and replaced them with "Single Occupancy Restroom" signs. And like... it's the same thing, man. You're celebrating a pointless relabeling.

Apparently the “terrorist” who “posed immediate threat” is a 3 year old child named Ahed al-Bayok.

Sinclair Broadcasting owns 185 television stations in 85 media markets. and this is what they do with that power and reach.

God damn STOP TEXTING ME MARK KELLY

An openly Nazi government that wishes the Axis powers had won World War II:

Drew Gooden making that (quite good) video about wealth inequality and the economy is such a proof positive of the value of normal guys people like saying good things, as opposed to career ideologue type guys

IT’S HAPPENING! The original theatrical version of Star Wars is coming to theaters in 2027: youtu.be/qfXvdFcvhNY?...

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

The USA is under enemy occupation + citizens r seeing rights eroded. The enemy will destroy the Voting Rights Act- w the long awaited goal of forcing a race war. Helter Skelter-Manson would be proud of the current occupation. The USA must forcibly eject occupation forces holding government hostage

This rules people.com/halle-berry-...

The normalization of this madness is so quick that we’re debating whether a second illegal strike was wrong after an initial illegal strike with no proof of any crime and we’ve already seen just random murders of fishermen normalized with the excuse they’re running drugs, which isn’t legal either.

Excellent deep-dive into the violence perpetrated by fascist Zionist thugs at UCLA. Democrats, Republicans, the ADL, and the media have spent over a year lying that the violence was an antisemitic attack on Jews, and have used it and other lies to eviscerate higher education in the US:

Hello. I am trying to raise $2K for the Hollywood Food Coalition. We provide hot nutritious meals to 300~ Angelenos every night of the week. Our lines are longer now due to Trump’s cuts and the economy tanking. Please give if you can: ❤️ givebutter.com/hofocogt2025...

Ilhan Omar: “His obsession with me is creepy, I'm not going anywhere — I'll be here longer than #Trump - He’s an old man losing his mind. I hope he gets the help he desperately needs—”

This horrible man disgraces the office of President of the (dis)United States every day. He is hatred personified. www.linkedin.com/posts/keithf...

Hilary Clinton should have stayed in the god damn woods. Just shut up and leave us alone already you complete and utter loser

The issue about killing the last 2 survivors is secondary: Trump and Hegseth have ordered *83* murders, not 2. None of these people were ‘enemy combatants’. They were suspected drug smugglers until proven to be guilty in a fair trial. Without that, they were murdered. That is all. 🙄🇺🇸🙄

“I think we have to be careful with the Nazi comparisons” people are always waiting until we are five minutes until the Holocaust and then they’re like well it’s only ethnic cleansing not a Holocaust

Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries: “Strong floor, no ceiling” Colombian President Gustavo Petro: “A clan of pedophiles wants to destroy our democracy.”

At least the Democrats shut down the government for over a month and got absolutely nothing in return

We are not at war with Venezuela, yet. The boats are civilian craft. The U.S. criminal code does not maintain a death penalty for drug smuggling. Due process is required before conviction or sentence. All of the 80 people killed thus far are wanton murders slain under illegal orders. All of them.

Striking a boat full of unarmed civilians is murder. The first strike was murder. The followup strike was also murder. We're not at war. It's not a "war crime". Everyone involved, including the POTUS, SecDef, the Admiral who relayed it and the person who pressed the button needs to be on trial.

Sabrina Carpenter slams the White House for using her song ‘Juno’ for a pro-ICE video: “this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.”

This World AIDS Day, we remember the hundreds of thousands of New Yorkers lost to HIV and AIDS, and those living with HIV today. We must remind ourselves and each other that the fight isn’t over until the epidemic is over for everyone.

a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit

Disabled people were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis. They coined the term “useless eaters”. They tested the gas chambers on us. They knew most people wouldn’t fight to save our lives. That’s why the President using the R slur is so dangerous. We’re not expendable

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.

"I myself have publicly advocated the use of direct action, including property sabotage, in the cause of climate justice. It stands to reason that I should support the same range of tactics in the effort to prevent genocide."

This is murder. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

There is literally no reason for the military to be in D.C.

Graham Linehan is a normal and well man.

People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷
