VIDEO: Seattle Starbucks workers are on strike right now, trying to achieve their first contract to secure a living wage, proper staffing and good working conditions.

I spoke to Emma Cox, a barista at the U District Starbucks who’s helping lead the picket line at her store.

ynet "Madmani of the West Coast" was elected mayor of Seattle -and the Israelis are worried After accusing Israel of "genocide in Gaza," promising to look for investment removal and halt security cooperation, Katie Wilson overcame the incumbent mayor of Seattle Bruce Harrell. The local Jewish community is preparing to monitor its policy. "The fear is that it will legitimize anti-Israel organizations,” they said. Daniel Adelson, New York | Published: 04:38

Israeli media is reacting to Katie Wilson’s win in Seattle with its typical flair, calling her the “Mamdani of the West Coast” and warning she will “legitimize anti-Israel organizations” calling Israel’s genocide in Gaza what it is.

NEW — Rashida Tlaib and 20 other members of Congress have introduced a resolution to officially recognize Israel's genocide of the Palestinian people.

It notes that between 10/23 and 11/25, the US sent $21,700,000,000 in military aid to Israel and authorized $30,000,000,000+ in new weapons deals.

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

Last week, thousands of volunteers knocked on more than 100,000 doors across the five boroughs — the first time we've crossed that single week milestone since June.

Possibly ignorant question here, but… why is saying “that shooting is awful, and also the victim said toxic things” a lot worse for our politics than telling people at a political rally to “choose violence”?

Because at least according to levels of attention and criticism, the former is much worse.

Charlie Kirk did not deserve to die. Political violence is unacceptable.

At the same time, dying doesn't give anyone the right to rewrite history. He said what he said. And a lot of it was hate and lies.

“Charlie Kirk in His Own Words”

17 quotes you should read from the right-wing activist and Trump ally who was tragically shot and killed on Wednesday in Utah.

So either the authorities mistook arrows possibly referencing a video game as “transgender ideology,” or someone deliberately tried to mislead the public and shape the narrative to incite *more* violence — and the media and right-wing figureheads eagerly went along with it

Gaza
West Bank
Lebanon
Yemen
Syria
Iran
Iraq
Tunisia
Qatar

All attacked and bombed by Israel in the past year.

Insane.

Rogue state.

700 days of unlimited genocide since oct7 and israel is still refusing to even scale it back, the western world has taken more action their citizens calling our allegiance out w this criminal entity, eroding the belief people had in liberal international order and democracy

We must speak out about our Palestinian colleagues in Gaza like Mohammed Qreiqeh and Anas al-Sharif, who are being murdered by Israel.
On Thursday, I spoke at a rally in Seattle condemning Israel’s impunity and the complicity of Western media. Here is an excerpt of that speech. We must do better.

Senator Cory Booker declines to endorse Zohran Mamdani, saying: "New York City ... you're about ten miles from where I live. You guys figure out your elections; I'm going to focus on mine."

"vote blue for me, not for thee"

@booker.senate.gov you're a coward and hypocrite. stand by the voters of the Democratic party and support their candidate because that's (allegedly) what political parties should do even if they dont agree with the entire agenda of their nominee.

Real Change confirmed today that two of our vendors have been detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This action is a direct attack on a protected community and poses a chilling threat to the safety and well-being of all individuals experiencing homelessness and poverty.

YouTube video by Jubilee Mehdi Hasan vs 20 Far-Right Conservatives #surrounded

This is misleading. This headline should be, "Mehdi Hasan Surrounded by 20 Fascists and Racists."

This is the modern GOP and MAGA movement.

What more do you all need to hear and see?

i am begging you to primary the do-nothing party leadership so i don't have to clip their videos anymore. free me of this curse

If folks really want to make this NYC primary election all about Israel - and I don’t! - then it’s worth remembering:

Netanyahu’s lawyer lost tonight to the guy who told me he’d arrest Netanyahu if he came to New York.

Congrats! Trump’s (illegal) air strikes on Iran energized and empowered the most hardline, nationalistic, anti-western, and belligerent folks in Iran.

Lot of people seem to think this is a paraphrase. No, he actually said that

Headline Scoop: Trump launches MAGA PAC in effort to oust Rep. Massie from Congress By: Alex Isenstadt

Donald Trump is launching a billionaire-funded PAC to get rid of the *only Republican in Congress* who's spoken out against another reckless US war. Do you get the message yet?

Cable news suddenly keeps mentioning “sleeper cells” in Iran. Heard it at least 3 times on CNN. Unbelievable 2003-style reporting malpractice, just spitballing ways of making Iran seem like a threat to Americans sitting at home watching tv

the US attacked iran's nuclear facilities while using a denuclearization negotiation as cover for israel to implement a 1st strike, because israel lied about iran having wmd's against our own IC's assessment. all while talking abt iran's disinterest in diplomacy
