Sudan war: RSF militia killed 460 people at el-Fasher hospital, says WHO WHO chief "appalled and deeply shocked" after doctors say RSF killed "patients, their companions, and anyone else present".

β€œI think this is the worst place on Earth now,” said Jan Egeland @sg-nrc.bsky.social

β€œIt’s the biggest humanitarian emergency on Earth and it happens in the dark, really - there has been far too little attention to what's happening in Sudan."

The fact that some prominent Democrats defend a Maine Senate primary candidate’s Nazi tattoo while he isn’t even leading in polls, but not defend a NYC mayor primary winner from false smears even as he’s leading general election polls says a lot.

That doesn’t seem driven by voter preference.

The Voting Rights Act is yet again in danger! The current SCOTUS case is trying to use the VRA's prohibition against racial gerrymanders to claim a fixed map is discriminatory against white people. Read my latest (w/ a link to @audrelawdamercy.bsky.social article)

The Maine primary is in what, June? People really wanna die on the unrepentant Nazi tattoo hill instead of, idk, using the next eight months to support somebody else?

"People who have voluntarily tattooed the symbol of the people who ran the Nazi extermination camps on their own skin should be vigorously shunned from any and all public institutions" is not a purity test, it is the literal fucking ground floor bar of a civilized society

The Conservative Justices Have So Many Ideas For How to Kill the Voting Rights Act The Republican justices already know where they’re going. They just have to figure out which route they’re going to take to get there.

my main takeaways from listening to the Supreme Court oral argument today are

-the writing is on the wall for the Voting Rights Act
-the Republican justices are now throwing racist spaghetti at that wall; they'll pass of whatever sticks as the opinion's rationale

That this would be the outcome was clear from mid-October 2023, since Israel went into Gaza blinded by fury & with no β€œday after” plan.

This blessed day should have come much sooner, with more hostages like Goldberg-Polin & tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians still alive.

Saying Trump deserves the Nobel peace prize is so bizarre and gross. We don’t know if the ceasefire will hold. He allowed this to continue & even escalate for months. He might encourage ethnic cleansing to build hotels. The bar is subterranean for y’all

I desperately hope the ceasefire holds and this moment of ramped up genocide ends. But the fight is far from over. I think Trump was motivated to end the bombing bec he wants to transition to development which will require ethnic cleansing. Stay vigilant

There are so many lies associated with Columbus Day. He didn't discover America, he wasn't "a man of his time," and the holiday is not a response to "the largest mass lynching in US history." All these lies serve to whitewash US history. open.substack.com/pub/miabrett...

This week I wrote about how many mothers are prosecuted for crimes that never happened when their children die but it happens to fathers too. #RobertRoberson is on death row based on the theory that his child died from shaken baby syndrome which is a questionable medical theory

Deafening Silence After Mormon Church Shooter Not A "Transgender Leftist" But A Trump Supporter The event is a case study in how shootings are covered in America.

1. A day after the Michigan church shooting, Republicans are silent after learning the shooter was a MAGA extremist.

No investigations of Trump supporters as terrorists. No national conversations about the rights of cisgender men.

The silence is deafening.

Do not put your name on a website to register for a rally in this political climate. What the fuck's wrong with y'all. Are there any people of color that work at this org who might knock some sense into your peach colored heads.

Conservatives refuse to move off the claim that a lefty influenced by β€œtrans ideology” is responsible for Charlie Kirk’s murder because they are manufacturing consent & a bullshit justification to even further target trans people & those critical of white nationalism

The posts are distinct. The lefthand one is by a leftist, the righthand one is by a rightwing extremist. I don't really care what either intends, but that they are quite parallel. I don't think we should give quarter to either while taking seriously the antiblack racism surrounding Frank's case. 2/2
