CPAC Head Says Iranian Schoolgirls Are Better Dead Than “in a Burqa” Leading Republicans don’t seem to care about the bombing of a girls’ school in Iran.

Every single human who has even 1% agreement with CPAC is a race (human) traitor and undeserving of any grace.

“Stronghold” makes it sound like Israel bombed a military base. They did not. They bombed a densely populated part of the capital city. One of those rancid, enabling words that needs to be retired.

Conservative MAGA ideologue Matt Schlapp has attempted to justify the killing of more than 100 young girls at an elementary school in southern Iran, by claiming they were saved from religious extremism. trib.al/954INe5

Rep. Randy Fine claims it was Iran, not the US, that bombed a girls school killing over 160 people.

When asked what evidence he has — he says, “what's the evidence they didn’t?”

Israel says it will reopen the Kerem Shalom crossing, Gaza’s main gateway for aid, after U.S. pressure pushed Israeli officials to restore deliveries following days of closure, Haaretz reports. The paper says Aryeh Lightstone, a senior adviser to U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff, directly urged Israel to resume aid flows and override the shutdown. Israeli authorities announced Tuesday the crossing would allow the “gradual entry” of humanitarian aid, after it was closed alongside other crossings during the U.S.–Israeli strikes on Iran.

🎥 Kerem Shalom is Gaza’s only entry point for aid and commercial goods, and its closure is catastrophic for the roughly 1.9 million displaced Palestinians now living mostly in tent camps. Dr. Mimi Syed (

“What we’re asking for is something very basic: provide confidential outgoing legal calls in detention, make sure this information is posted to make sure detainees know it’s available, let attorneys come to the facility without scheduled visits. It’s nothing out of the ordinary.”

A navy torpedo detonates under the target, lifts it out of the water and cracks the hull. The people who aren’t thrown overboard by the blast are knocked unconscious and buried alive in their compartments when the ship sinks. We did that to 141 people today for no reason.

Palestinians in Gaza fear famine returning as Israel cuts off food amid Iran war Once Israel and the U.S. launched their war on Iran, Israel closed the crossings into Gaza and cut off all aid. Palestinians in the Strip now fear a return to famine amid food shortages and soaring prices.
