The rising tension between Israel and Iran is not just regional posturing—it echoes loudly in Gaza. As Israel eyes Tehran, Gaza braces for fallout. For civilians here, every regional rivalry lands at our doorstep. #Gaza #Iran #Israel #MiddleEast #BlueskyNews

In Gaza, we’re caged by borders drawn in blood. In the U.S., ICE raids homes and detains kids in silence. Different continents, same logic: Dehumanize, detain, displace. #Gaza #AbolishICE #BordersAreViolence

People here don’t need your pity. We need your solidarity. That starts by noticing whose voices are amplified, and whose are buried.

#Gaza, #CeasefireNOW, #USPolitics

More lives lost amid continued violence. The local government is struggling to respond as the humanitarian situation worsens. Hospitals overwhelmed. Aid slow to arrive. Heartbreak everywhere. #Gaza #Breaking

Been away from social media for a while. I’m a journalist currently reporting from Gaza — back online to share what I’m witnessing, and to tell the stories of those living through this. I’ll be posting updates, context, and moments that often get missed. • #Gaza #Palestine#GazaUnderAttack

In Gaza, children starve under bombs. In the U.S., students are arrested for demanding justice. Two worlds, one fight—for humanity. #GazaUnderAttack #StandWithGaza #FreePalestine #PressFreedom #HumanRights

Been quiet here, but not by choice. Every day in Gaza is a story—some too heavy to tell, some still unfolding. I carry the weight of many voices, but today, I need yours. Drop a word, a thought, a light. I’m still here.”

Another night of bombing in Gaza. Children are starving while the world watches. This is not just a war—it’s a humanitarian catastrophe. Demand a ceasefire. Demand accountability. #Gaza #CeasefireNow #EndTheSiege

A small bird with iridescent green and blue feathers sits on a thick, spiny stem. Its throat glows a deep violet, and its tail feathers shift from golden yellow to burnt orange. The bird has a bright red bill, and the background is a smooth blur of green.

I guess I shouldn't tease the name Blue-throated Goldentail without showing the golden tail!

OK, for non-lawyers:

(1) SCOTUS (9-0) tells Gov’t, “You’re lawfully ordered to ‘facilitate’ AG’s release from custody.”

(2) AG’s lawyers: “tell us what you’ve done to accomplish (1).”

(3) Gov’t invents fake SCOTUS quote to argue: “Not answering, bc we weren’t ordered to do that precise thing.” 🤯
