The mere fact of how Democrats seem resolute in refusing to sabotage this administration and engage in monkey-wrenching, shows me that embracing that party cannot in any way combat fascism

I don't think that's quite true? There are at least a handful of minority groups that regularly get talked about this way by Loomer & Co. She's wrong and evil, but the public has a pretty high tolerance for exterminationist rhetoric from Trump's advisors.

This House Democrat may lose her primary over past support for Israel The primary of Rep. Valerie Foushee, a North Carolina Democrat, is putting a spotlight on the shifting politics of Israel within the party.

This is an especially interesting race because Valerie Foushee was one of AIPAC's first ever Congressionally endorsed candidates for a primary in 2022, but now she is a cosponsor of the Block The Bombs Act.

And yet she is still perceived as too friendly to Israel and may yet lose in part bc of it.

I hope you aren’t drunk and took your staff’s advice, Rashida and I don’t know this man and feel confident he didn’t care about us. Please restrain from drinking too much as you have been warned from your staff and stay off social media when you are drunk. I pray in his holy month you find peace and respect for your self,

5 years ago, there were multiple gender clinics in Texas with large multidisciplinary teams of experts and supportive infrastructure for trans youth to not only survive but thrive. All of that has been completely stripped away in a campaign of hate. They don't want us to exist.

Observe this "debate" over who should decide on what clothes kids are allowed to wear. Labour say parents, Tories say the state. Both of course in total agreement that the kids themselves should have no say in it at all.

Trump doesn't rule out possibility of US boots on ground in Iran
In an interview with the New York Post, the president noted that the possibility of American troops in Iran is not entirely off the table.

β€œI don’t have the yips with respect to boots on the ground – like every president says β€˜there will be no boots on the ground.’ I don’t say it,” Donald Trump told the Post. β€œI say β€˜probably don’t need them,’ [or] β€˜if they were necessary.’”

This comes after Pete Hegseth initially said that there weren’t plans to have service members on the ground in Iran, but also was reluctant to say whether this was the administration’s lasting stance. β€œWe’re not going to go into the exercise of what we will or will not do,” he said at a Pentagon press conference earlier.

A victory in Denver and a warning in Miami as Palantir relocates HQ Colorado organizers celebrated the surveillance giant’s move after more than a year of protests, while Miami immigrant communities organized their own pushback

A researcher with the American Friends Service Committee and the national β€œPurge Palantir” campaign said the next phase is about scaling, helping communities identify where Palantir is embedded through political relationships, and sharing tactics that can be adapted locally.

Remarkable to see claims of Lebanese violations of a ceasefire which has been a one-sided affair since mid 2024. Israel has bombed Lebanon thousands of times since then and in fact did so the very day prior to this last.
