We must remain vigilant against this possibility. It’s quite probable that trump will try to steal the ‘26 and ‘28 elections. This needs to go viral, so as many people as possible are aware of what to guard against.

Inquiry for New York Times
Good afternoon,
My name is [REDACTED]
and l am a reporter for the
New York Times. I am researching how much money the Palestinian diaspora community has sent to support Gazan families since the war in Gaza began. Does your team track this figure? I really appreciate it.
With gratitude,
[REDACTED]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:c6k2ozisr2bbitsafwwyistf/bafkreidoaiwf4uqz6x7awyid7lqsmqliyzpfqw3eciuymduol4lmohum24)

Hello [REDACTED]
We do not collaborate with The New York Times.
Your email asks about money sent to Gazan families "since the war in Gaza began." Let us first correct the premise. This is not a war. It is a genocide. Calling it a war is part of the problem. It obscures the reality of a colonized people being massacred by a military machine backed by the United States and defended, sanitized, and rhetorically softened by institutions like yours.
The New York Times has spent far too long parroting Zionist propaganda and laundering Israeli state narratives while Palestinians bury their dead. That kind of coverage does not merely misinform. It helps create the political climate in which Palestinian slaughter becomes explainable, defensible, and forgettable.
So no, we will not be sharing any figures, internal data, or community information with a paper that has so thoroughly damaged its credibility on Palestine. Quite frankly, we would rather chew jeans than help The New York Times extract from our community while continuing to fail it.
Do not contact us again for this purpose, The Palestine Diaspora Movement Team](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:c6k2ozisr2bbitsafwwyistf/bafkreiai2pecvwkmynio7kasncq7p5b2wckztgny22dv4tx6x73rp3qhku)

DHS repeatedly said that an aggressive apartment raid in Chicago last fall was prompted by intel on a gang takeover.
Documents show the real story behind the raid was to target alleged squatters — with the landlord's blessing.
52% of dem voters in this state really said: a white man who can't be a team player to save his life (we have receipts!), who clearly is favored by the opposition bc he *won't* turn out the vote or generate even the enthusiasm Beto did - that's our guy! But we're not sexist or racist, promise!
I don't know that this state has ever disappointed me more than it did last night. But when a crusty old precorpse wins the senate seat in November, you won't see me defending anyone except the people who voted for Jasmine Crockett bc they're the ones we let down en masse yesterday.
is anyone writing about the rise of online gambling as it relates to the (supposed) male loneliness/disaffection crisis because I would read the fuck out of that
