Sinwar's goal of making the world see the Israel that Gazans had to endure on a day to day basis being met and surpassed

I'm Reem, from Gaza, and my life has become a nightmare.
I once dreamed of a decent life; today, I live among the ruins of our home, surrounded by fear, hunger, and sleepless nights.
I wrote the rest of the text below, in the comments.

It’s really weird when things are going well in one’s personal life but you’re also depressed because of everything else. I’m very happy and deeply sad.

Gaza Sumud flotilla: How Israel breaks international maritime law The Global Sumud Flotilla says its fleet of over 50 ships has entered the ‘high-risk zone.’

Donald Trump and MAGA Republicans just shut down the government to push their extreme agenda. They’d rather strip Medicaid, eliminate SNAP benefits, and close rural hospitals than keep our government open.

It’s appalling.

Jarvis: I hate to say this to my friends here at CNN, mass media is dying, so they're taking the last of these vestiges of institutions that matter and they're trying to turn them into propaganda organs under threat from the head of the FCC

Here's what to know if ICE comes to your workplace President Donald Trump’s administration announced the start of a deportation campaign in Chicago. The Sun-Times and WBEZ spoke with experts who shared what businesses and workers should know.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

When reporting ICE or military activity, it's important to include actionable information that people can use to help keep themselves and others safe. The SALUTE method is used by the military to provide a detailed description of opposing forces, which we can apply here. SALUTE is an acronym for SIZE, ACTIVITY, LOCATION, UNIFORM, TIME, and EQUIPMENT. Here is a summary of what a SALUTE Report entails and the type of information that will be helpful when posting ICE or NG sightings in Chicago. SIZE: Include the number of individuals, vehicles, or assets present in the observed area. ACTIVITY: Describe the actions and behavior of the observed group/individuals. LOCATION: Provide precise detailed description of the activity’s location. UNIFORM: Identify the affiliation or group to which the observed entity belongs. TIME: Record the date and time of the observation. EQUIPMENT: List the equipment, weaponry, or tools associated with the observed group.

If you believe you are witnessing ICE activity, please call The Illinois Coalition for Immigrant & Refugee Rights' 24-Hour Family Support Hotline at 1-855-HELP-MY-FAMILY (1-855-435-7693) to report it.

Got a shirt recently, American Apparel, made in Nicaragua, and as a former AA employee this is very funny. Incredibly hilarious.

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery.

America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons.

Watch and share his message.

“We can live today according to the values that we wish would govern the world in the hypothetical future we are working for. To honor diversity, complexity, inclusiveness, and connection in our lives now is to widen the path of truth-telling for everyone.” -- Harriet Lerner
