Trump sabre-rattling over Venezuela and Nigeria for the usual made up reasons. They must think we are all fucking stupid. Two of the largest holders of OIL reserves on the planet. This is just US imperialism, playing out on the global stage, just with an rapist, paedophile, fascist at the helm.

What really bothers them is that we are disturbing the war."

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

🎥 UN’s Albanese Condemns “Global System of Complicity” in Gaza Genocide 

UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese addressed the UN General Assembly this week. She began by marking day 751 of the Gaza genocide, speaking from South Africa after U.S. sanctions barred her entry to New York. She said Gaza today is “strangled, starved, shattered,” with hundreds of thousands killed or missing and bodies returned showing signs of torture.

Albanese said Israel’s atrocities are not accidental but the result of a global system of complicity — a “colonial world order” that armed, funded, and shielded Israel as its apartheid turned genocidal. 

She cited four pillars of that complicity:

1️⃣ Diplomacy: forums used to justify genocide and veto ceasefires, while states like South Africa and Nicaragua are punished for pursuing justice.

2️⃣ Military ties: the U.S. supplies two-thirds of Israel’s weapons, with many others exporting or testing arms on Palestinians.

3️⃣ Trade: Israel’s exports soared to $474 billion; the EU remains its main partner even as it sanctions Russia.

4️⃣ Weaponized aid: the blockade and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation turned aid sites into “killing fields.”

She urged all states to suspend military, economic, and diplomatic ties, cut arms trade, and prosecute those complicit, including foreign fighters in the IDF. “No state may aid or assist a genocidal regime,” she said. “If the Security Council is paralyzed, this Assembly must act. From the ruins of Gaza may a new multilateralism rise — not for the few, but for the many.”

The US government is murdering civilians in open waters, based on hearsay and no evidence. The US wants to invade Venezuela and needs an excuse, this is it, but it's flimsy at best.

The number of Democrats rushing to defend Platner and his tattoo, career, etc. is evidence alone that there is no left-wing party in America.

We just have two Nazi parties.

White words on a black background read:

50+ 
Immigration agents have the authority to detain whom they reasonably suspect are in the country illegally. We found more than 50 Americans who were held after agents questioned their citizenship. They were almost all Latino.

~130
Agents also can arrest citizens who allegedly interfered with or assaulted officers. We compiled cases of about 130 Americans, including a dozen elected officials, accused of assaulting or impeding officers. 

~20
Among the citizens detained are nearly 20 children, including two with cancer.

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents.

I did it because the government isn’t.

This is what I found.

Honestly, it’s exhausting that people think Gazans should only ask for help to survive to eat, to stay alive but not to dream, to study, or to rebuild their lives. Wanting education, safety, and a future isn’t greed. It’s being human.

This is fuckin insane, western leaders, the EU, UK, US will tout this as some moral victory when it's a complete and utter fucking disgrace, a complete capitulation to fascism. Fuck everyone involved. No peace on stolen land.

A massive explosion engulfs the Al-Azhar University complex in Gaza City, sending towering plumes of orange fire and grey smoke into the air. The foreground shows debris and dust clouds sweeping outward across the ground. In the background, faint outlines of city buildings are visible under a pale evening sky.

Intense Israeli airstrikes hit Al-Azhar University in Gaza City, where hundreds of displaced Palestinian families were taking shelter.

The sole survivor of his family…

A baby not yet 10 months old lies in a hospital bed after losing his entire family, including his parents and all his siblings, in a horrific Israeli attack in southern Gaza.

This is what Israel does to Palestinian children.

Who's really encouraging attacks like the one on a synagogue? Look to our leaders The attack in Manchester is evidence not of a rising tide of antisemitism but of something else entirely: a growing and dangerous political illiteracy being cultivated in our societies
