Between a "No Other Land" crew mate filming himself being killed by a settler, to a journalist being killed by airstrikes he was covering minutes earlier, I'm not sure how much more televised Israel's genocide can be

sign pointing to ICE headquarters saying concentration camp and secret police HQ with arrow

abolish ICE. mass protesters get creative with twice weekly demos at the suburban mall next to ICE regional headquarters and concentration camp in Burlington. Freed detainees tell of a dozen people crowded in a windowless room with no beds one open toilet in the middle. @swingbluealliance.org

This is my will and my final message.
If these words of mine reach you, know that Israel has succeeded in killing me and silencing my voice.
Peace be upon you, and the mercy and blessings of Allah.
Allah knows that I exerted every effort and strength I had to be a support and a voice for my people, from the moment I opened my eyes to life in the alleys and streets of the Jabalia refugee camp. My hope was that Allah would prolong my life until I could return with my family and loved ones to our original hometown, the occupied Ascalon "Majdal." But Allah's will prevailed, and His decree was fulfilled.

Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif’s last tweet is his last will and testament, posted by his friend after he was murdered for telling the truth for 22 months.

i can’t stand video. i skip over it and look for writing. to the extent news is parsed as video I reject it…even going so far as simple news search to find writing about the news i’m interested in rather than watching video.

smoking gun? the central texas floods are terrible. But Trump and Doge slashed jobs at the NWS including the β€œwarning coordination meteorologist” for central texas. Americans will die needlessly until the republican party is destroyed and fighters take over the dems.

My sentiments exactly. NO Kings Yes. DNC hopeless. When you’re fighting for your country, look for the fighters. Leave the whiners behind. They will do you no good. NO to @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @whipkclark.bsky.social and yes to @chrismurphyct.bsky.social

this is Iraq all over again. Israel claimed Iran was weeks away from a weapon in 1995. trump killed the deal on weapons because he hated Obama. Can’t trust you after your crypto vote. You have just enabled massive fraud and financial disaster that taxpayers will clean up. No. NO, always No!

The Wolf-Krugman Exchange: the crisis of trust With huge economic and political shifts taking place what will replace the old world order?

I admire both martin wolf and paul Krugman, and know they are not capitulating to Trump. But their idealization of the prior period - now lost- of US hegemony is not self-critical. Trump came about thru the failure of liberal democracy, not in spite of it. #econsky on.ft.com/3HwFxkP

RE Gaza: why are you deleting so many Gaza accounts.These feeds are some of the only real news we get. Moderators should be transparent, never act hastily, and protect these accounts from harassment by Israeli agents.
