Former Israeli PM Olmert in Haaretz, calls Israel’s assault on Gaza “intentional annihilation” and “war crimes.” Say that as a U.S. politician and AIPAC will spend $5 million to end your career.

I don’t care what Ozturk wrote. It doesn’t matter. This is America. We’re fucking free to have opinions of all sorts. It doesn’t matter. You don’t get to lock up people for bad thought. That’s against the fucking law and morals and fuck every last person arguing that this is a crime. Fuck all of em

foul, venal, cowardly, bigoted garbage

Israel’s Military Cites ‘Professional Failures’ in Killings of Gaza Medics (Gift Article) In a statement summarizing its investigation into the deadly episode, the military said a deputy commander would be dismissed.

The IDF excuses itself of war crimes, citing "professional failures" and firing one person, after video and eyewitness accounts exposed their earlier lies after they ambushed ambulances, shot aid workers in the head, and buried them in mass graves.

SORRY. Sorry.
Have we seen this *incredible* news video coming out of Queensland? Wait for the witness/witnesses statement

It's never about the science. It's always about having a legal basis for your fear and hatred of other people.

"Within minutes after DOGE accessed the NLRB's systems, someone with an IP address in Russia started trying to log in ... Whoever was attempting to log in was using one of the newly created DOGE accounts — and the person had the correct username and password"

Wilmer only found out his son had been detained after receiving a phone call on March 15 from his nephew, Luis, who lives with them. That morning was their last time together; they had gone around the corner to do their laundry. Later that day, Wilmer said that his son met with a friend to get help with some errands at the American Red Cross. He learned this from Luis, who looked at the situation from inside the apartment: when his son was on his way back, just steps from his home when ICE agents stopped him. “The officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to our building. One said, ‘No, he’s not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, ‘Take him anyway.'” That moment marked the beginning of Wilmer’s search for answers — answers he’s still waiting for.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

Kidnapping.

Capturing a person against their will without due process is called kidnapping.

Transporting them to another country without due process is called human trafficking.

A squalid extrajudicial prison for people found guilty of no crime is called a concentration camp.

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.

The Democratic response I wanted.

Amazing scenes in today's meeting between the leader of the free world, and convicted felon and sexual abuser Donald Trump...

Richest person in the world. Biggest arsehole on the planet. Truly the chicken/egg question of our time.

Favorite paragraph from this:

Tweet from Scott Jennings, saying "um, yes, that's really a problem," with a quoted image saying "The problem with left-leaning media is they're intrinsically more strict with their propaganda to only using verifiable sources so it's really hard to poke holes in their ideology and arguments in comparison to a lot of low quality right-wing content. That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well. In essence, people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly aren't usually on our side."

This is why they're attacking science and education: if you can only win with disinformation, data become a threat.

Hi,

I’ve been a software developer for 30 years, including in very large IT projects.

Everything about “DOGE” and a bunch of Hitlerjugend walking into a data center and optimizing a code base and data grown over 70 years in a few days is complete bullshit on its nose.

Sincerely,
Thomas

Wow. it must feel terrible when someone takes something you made and uses it without permission or payment

I spoke to a talented junior scientist who just got a good faculty job offer in the US and they told me “well I wouldn’t move to 1930s Germany either” so that’s how that’s going

A BBC News alert reads “Confident, organised, still freewheeling: Trump 2.0 had learned lessons from the past, BBC’s Anthony Zurcher writes

Way to go, #BBCNews. Excellent sanewashing. “Freewheeling”? FFS. Normalizing a dangerous authoritarian. Can’t possibly backfire.

My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some of those things #Thread

My husband has pancreatic cancer; Trump just killed him. Cancelling his experimental treatment; he was doing this for others, so others could live longer.. now as of February 3rd, his next oncology, we’ve been told to expect hospice..

Fuck you trump, for killing the only person who ever choose me

To the far right there is just one commandment: "Think only of thine own self". Any consideration for others is utterly verboten. They are literally the antithesis of everything good about humanity.
