Or, you know, the military dictatorship under which Israel has forced Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza to live for nearly sixty years.

I take issue with the fact that it wasn't the two and a half years of genocide that "shattered" the hasbara machine and triggered global condemnation, but any blow to that machine is better than nothing

BREAKING: Global Sumud Flotilla activists released from Israeli custody after Israel seized an aid flotilla bound for Gaza in international waters, say they were tortured, sexually assaulted and denied basic legal rights. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.news/finz9n

I miss the days when I was furious and working hard to bring an end to really bad things and perfect the union, instead of being furious and working hard to bring an end to cataclysmic things and save the union.

In today’s edition of the Article I Crisis: Worse than abdicating its constitutional responsibilities with respect to the use of military force, the House majority blocks a vote on Trump’s ongoing, unauthorized war with Iran.

Ending the day the way I end most days. Cute, furious, and lightly armed. Have a good day & we fight again tomorrow! thebrokencircle.etsy...

Earnest requests for clarification and scripts are absolutely legitimate ways to respond to horrible policies. Plus they can really show up how shitty those policies are, AND GET IT ALL IN WRITING. "Ok, and what do I say when they say....?" IN WRITING. Little bits of gravel can be trouble.

HOLY SHIT prosecutors kicked off grand jurors and then re-presented the case against the Broadview 6, then altered the grand jury transcripts to hide it from the judge. www.cbsnews.com/chicago/news...

Fascists don't expect people who don't give up.

The "batteries are just as bad as fossil fuels" stuff is so fucking stupid, so easy to refute with just a minute or two of rational thought, so *obviously* a piece of propaganda, that I just have no sympathy at all for people who fall for it. Gonna block everyone who drags it into my feed.

BUY TULIPS

More good news!

KAT WON. FUCK ICE.

New poll of American Jews finds: -Substantial opposition to the Iran War -Majority support for a two-state solution, but more support for one binational state than one apartheid state. -More concern about right-wing than left-wing antisemitism. (jewishvoters.org/wp-content/u...)

This diplomatic response shows the value of international solidarity. The violent and degrading treatment of prisoners is business as usual for the IDF, but maybe if you want complaints to be heard you need to show it happening to people who aren't Palestinian. Haaretz gift link:

This will be a source of power for generations to come, in every struggle against the forces of reaction. Everyone who cares about freedom and justice owes them a debt of gratitude.

1. This is huge. Kat Abughazaleh, Andre Martin, Michael Rabbitt, Cat Sharp, Brian Straw, and Jocelyn Walsh fought a fascist prosecution and won 2. This should not be over. We should know everything about what happened and people should lose more than their jobs evanstonnow.com/feds-to-dism...

Noah Wyle calls on Congress to pass a tax credit for healthcare workers: "Medicine is hard enough, but so much of the damage is coming from everything around it. It's the staffing ratio that turns a manageable shift into a moral injury. It's the tuition bill that still dictates what you can afford"

Today, we have won in Court. And we will continue to fight against injustice and for full transparency and accountability around this prosecution. And, in that—as in every action that proceeded this moment—I believe that we will win. (8/8)

The government tried to exhaust my finances, break my spirit and intimidate others out of exhibiting the everyday bravery of showing up for each other. In my 6-year-old daughter’s words, I am incredibly proud of being an upstander not a bystander. (7/8)

Despite the risks and personal toll of this experience, I wanted to show my kids and yours that our country and our future is worth fighting for. I will never get the past seven months of my life back. (6/8)

To be targeted unfairly by our Department of Justice for that protected behavior was shameful and represents a dark period in America’s history. (5/8)

I went to protest at the Broadview ICE detention facility back in September because I believe in our democratic values, of standing up for our neighbors and for exercising our rights to speak out against wrongs. (4/8)

And it was about our neighbors, more vulnerable than us, who have been targeted unfairly by this administration and who deserve peaceful, dignified lives alongside us. (3/8)

Contesting these charges was about our collective First Amendment rights. It was about fighting for a justice system that actually serves the interests of justice and the public—not the whims of those who are in power. (2/8)

I am relieved to be exonerated today, but I want to state clearly that fighting these unjust federal charges over the past seven months was never just about me or my co-defendants in this case. (1/8)

Cheers to Kat Abughazaleh, Michael Rabbitt, Andre Martin and Brian Straw - along with their family and friends and legal teams. Today is a good day for everyone who stood up against fascist terror as it invaded our city last fall.

FUCK ICE NOW AND FOREVER

If the girl and the legendary vampiric mannequin can uncover the secrets that form the foundations of the house, then at least one of them might escape to seek help.

@kim.senate.gov was on his hands and knees on Jan. 6 cleaning utterly desecrated spaces in the capitol building that MAGA rioters claimed to be their own house. Democrats always seem to be cleaning up after Republicans. Who are the real patriots?

I’ve covered Chicago’s federal courthouse for 11 years and have never seen a hearing like this one.

To keep people up to date: six people who exercised their first amendment rights had their lives overturned and were forced to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in attorneys fees because of clear prosecutorial misconduct.

Judge: Sanctions against prosecutors possible after remaining Broadview Six charges dismissed

The TL;DR on what happened today in Congress: The Senate abruptly adjourned until June 1 because Trump's demands for 1) a $1.8B slush fund to pay out J6 rioters and 2) $1B for his ballroom were too much for Republicans to swallow as they try to deliver Trump a $72B spending bill for ICE/CBP.

That grand jury transcript must have a metric shit-ton of prosecutorial malfeasance

I take issue with the fact that it wasn't the two and a half years of genocide that "shattered" the hasbara machine and triggered global condemnation, but any blow to that machine is better than nothing
