On Novara Live last night, Soumaya Hamdi spoke about the abduction by ICE of her husband, the British journalist Sami Hamdi β€” a tactic used by the US state to silence criticism of Israel.'

Have you watched the news or read any newspapers lately?

The high schoolers are not that far off. Try finding an unbiased story about Palestinians or Iran. Any maritime law experts interviewed on the Venezuela strikes? Just quotes from US politicians spouting misinformation & outright lies.

Medicare for All is baseline government health insurance β€” and we already pay for it. But right now, that money pads CEO bonuses instead of covering hearing, vision, and dental.

West Bank saw ’unprecedented Israeli settler terror’ in October This year’s West Bank olive harvest was marred by continued attacks by Israeli settlers and the military, amid the continued expansion of illegal outposts.

The Israeli army carried out 1,584 assaults, while settlers committed 766, the majority of which were concentrated in the governorates of Ramallah (542), Nablus (412), and Hebron (401).

I don't see this as feasible, or maybe even desirable. The initial plan of partition included a caretaker government that would certify each state; Israel wasn't having it then & won't have it now, as long as they have the unconditional support of the US. So the key is moving the US first.

Much of what I saw seemed to be mid- to older-ages, many of whom may actually have been Repub, focused on due process, ICE violence, maintaining equality of 3 branches, not liking Trumpian rhetoric, but pretty welcoming to the occasional keffiyeh or blue-haired, rainbow wearing youngster.

A friendly reminder that 39% of SNAP recipients are seniors, 20% are children, and 12% are people with disabilities. 20,000 active duty soldiers, 200,000 National Guardsmen, and 1.1 million veterans are also on SNAP. Please stop saying it's just "people who need to get a job."

The federal government wants to crack down on left organizing. A century ago, it largely succeeded. Socialist labor leader and presidential candidate Eugene Debs upon his release from federal prison in 1922.

I had this piece in the pipeline at Teen Vogue when the news dropped; I'm publishing it to my Substack because I think it's important and I don't want an interview with Adam Hochschild to go to waste.

B'Tselem just refers a lot of its cases directly to international courts now because there is no justice for Palestinians in Israeli courts.

DAWN’s Statement in Response to Mass Killings in Sudan (Washington, D.C., October 28, 2025) β€” In response to reports of mass killings by the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) in el-Fasher, Sudan, DAWN issues the following statement:

"When the world's most powerful governments enable one genocide without consequence, they send an unmistakable signal to perpetrators everywhere that mass atrocities will be tolerated. The RSF's massacre in el-Fasher is the direct result of this global failure..."
