All you can say in her favor is that she's a woman, she has a good sales pitch, and she knows how to plug her ears. Wow.

Btw, feminism isn't blindly supporting all women, it's holding all people to the same standard regardless of gender.

And I just… we could do this. We could afford to do this, as a country. There is no good fucking reason why we cannot do this. We simply choose not to because we believe that Jesus loves billionaires more than loser slothful creative people

NYT editorial board calls for deradicalizing the surviving Palestinians in Gaza The multinational authority should have an ambitious agenda. It would span the restoration of basic services, the feeding of the population, the reconstruction of neighborhoods and the creation of a police force. Crucially, as experts at the Wilson Center in Washington have argued, this authority should create a program in schools, the media and elsewhere "to remove Hamas's pervasive radicalizing influence over Gazan society."

There are historical antecedents for an international mission along these lines. Deradicalization programs succeeded in Germany and Japan after World War II, and multinational police forces have operated in Bosnia, Kosovo, Haiti and elsewhere. Of course, these efforts come with dangers. Participating countries would risk having their personnel become targets for Hamas. But

Buyers: So your games... guns and football, yes?

So we get banana republic indictments for a former FBI head, but not cheaper groceries. Is that the deal?

But let’s be clear: every day, masked ICE agents are acting violently against our neighbors, illegally abducting them, holding them in cruel and inhumane conditions. Treating them as less-than-human, and not deserving due process.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

And on top of everything else, the state of Israel is still committing genocide—no, *escalating* genocide—in Palestine.

Every parent in America must make sure their kids aren't being brain-poisoned online. What are they seeing in chats? Who are they talking to? What about their friends? What do those random nonsense things they're saying actually mean?

This is our job now. Lives depend on it.

“awful people don’t deserve to be killed, but they don’t deserve to be praised, either” is apparently a thought too complex for the pundit mind

Genuinely one of the most evil things I’ve ever read, and these dudes are American citizens who went to Gaza for the chance and joy of killing

David Pakman’s ex-producer says Pakman joined an off-record meeting with Kamala Harris and creators including Brian Tyler Cohen, where they informally discussed their editorial stance on Gaza. “too divisive…a poison pill...better if they just don't talk about it at all.”

This is not only morally reprehensible but strategically did more to help get Donald Trump elected

There is no compromise policy Democrats can offer Republicans to make them act normal on this issue. We simply have to state the basic reality — immigrants contribute to our country in myriad ways — and fight for it. I don't know how so many journalists convinced themselves this isn't an option.
