George Washington University student banned after pro-Palestinian graduation speech — Guardian US Senior Cecilia Culver criticized the university’s ties to Israel and called for donations to be withheld

Banning somebody from campus for diplomatically criticizing the university’s use of her tuition dollars to support a nation whose policies she disagrees with is another example of the fascism creeping into universities

BBC News: IDF is destroying everything that remains of Gaza, far-right Israeli minister says published at 07:19 07:19 Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich attends an inauguration event for Israel's new light rail line for the Tel Aviv metropolitan area, in Petah Tikva, Israel, August 17, 2023. Image source,Reuters We can now bring you some lines from a press conference held this morning by Israel's far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich. He says the little amount of food entering the Strip will not reach Hamas: "The bare minimum will reach the population - simply so the world doesn't stop us and accuse us of war crimes." "What will enter in the coming days is very little: a few bakeries distributing pita bread to people, and public kitchens providing one daily serving of cooked food." Civilians, he says, will receive one pita and a plate of food - "that's it". He adds that Israel's military is "destroying everything that remains of the Strip", describing the territory as "one big terror city". He says civilians will be moved out of combat zones as the army leaves "no stone unturned". "The population will reach the south of the Strip, and from there, with God’s help, to third countries," he says. As we've been reporting, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said Israel will take control of all of Gaza.

"The bare minimum will reach the population - simply so the world doesn't stop us and accuse us of war crimes."

I was a social security recipient from the age of 12 through 18. That’s not some weird thing or corruption. It’s called survivors’ benefits. You don’t have to know this. You’re blessed if you don’t. But if you’re going to speak publicly abt the program you need to know this.

What's happening with the Venezuelans who were disappeared by U.S. government secret police and sent to a gulag in El Salvador really, really is some "first they came for" shit.

I’m begging any journalist who is interviewing a “normal” Republican elected official to ask this one question: “If the Republican Party no longer believes in free markets and free trade, what exactly do you believe?”

Are you suggesting that letting someone beat you up until they get tired of beating you up isn't the key to anti-fascist resistance?
