Sheer spite, all these cuts to welfare, to services, to research, to disease prevention measures:

[FactPost @factpostnews]

House Republicans have passed a bill slashing 75% of fruit and vegetable benefits for pregnant and breastfeeding moms.

[UAVoyager🇺🇦 @NAFOvoyager]

This is Oleh.

He was 2.

russia decided that was enough.

A missile hit his home, killing Oleh, his mother, and 14 neighbors.

He never saw peace.
Never started school.
Never had a future.

His life ended before it began.

At the request of the illegal “Havat Maon” settlers, Israeli forces detained five Palestinian children, aged 8–12, for gathering wild vegetables and flowers near the settlement.

@ThatEricAlper @SJPMcArdle Does not mean FEWER.

[Double Down News @DoubleDownNews]

“It’s insane, we have a rogue US military contractor handling our most sensitive data. Palantir has a contract running our nuclear missile program. We have no national security.”

Palantir. IT'S WORSE Than You Think @carolecadwalla

So, it’s officially “bye bye women’s pond” then.
You absolute b@stards

No investigations...no charges... no convictions.

California. El atleta trans AB Hernández ha ganado los títulos estatales de secundaria en salto de altura femenino y triple salto femenino.
Tras él, lo que piensan las chicas expulsadas del podio por un tramposo está dicho en sus caras.

[James Richards 🙅🏻‍♂️ @JimRichards862]

How denigrating for the women to know going into a competition that they have no chance. That their very best effort will not succeed. That 10 years of dedication will never be enough.

Completely regressive subjugation of women.

[Howard Beckett @BeckettUnite]

Since the claimed ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza 🇵🇸

Israel 🇮🇱 has annexed 70% of Gaza 🇵🇸

Israel 🇮🇱 has murdered over 900 Palestinians

There is no ‘ceasefire’

It’s an apocalypse
It’s a land grab
It’s genocide

Expel 🇮🇱 from the UN now.

"Asaltaron la casa, mataron a mi marido y mis hijos, luego me agarraron, me cortaron por todo el cuerpo, me tiraron agua hirviendo y me quemaron. Luego me violaron 20 soldados, rebeldes del M23 de Ruanda".

Estas mujeres y niñas del Congo merecen tener voz, ni siquiera salen en las noticias y están pasando un infierno diario por la avaricia imperialista que ha creado un genocidio en el pais solo para saquearlo.

Si #Palestina es invisibilizada a diario en los medios, el #Congo directamente ya ni existe.

Using the loo appropriate to your sex is not being forced out of public life.

Elle Patterson said she was promised a full scholarship to play volleyball at SJSU. She says she never got a penny of it, while a trans athlete took her spot, and ended up having to unexpectedly pay for a whole year's worth of college bills.

Just 44 days until summer recess.

PM @Keir_Starmer promised to meet these families in October, and again in December. His office still hasn't bothered to arrange it. Time is not on the side of these national heroes. Thirty have died since Christmas.

THIS IS NO WAY TO TREAT OUR VETERANS PRIME MINISTER

You shook their hands in opposition. I won’t let you shake them off now. Please give them a date for the meeting you promised

BAM! Colombia has announced a historic ban on all new oil and large-scale mining projects in its part of the Amazon Rainforest, protecting an area roughly the size of Sweden. 🌿

Experts say the move could help protect one of the planet’s most important ecosystems—often called the “lungs of the Earth.” 🌎🌳

Nature is amazing. Protect it.

A girl steals baby formula from a shop and goes to jail.
Michelle Mone steals £200m and nothing happens.
THAT'S two tier justice...

@rayfp Remarkable he should alight on this; yet more remarkable that you can quite clearly hear that Basement Tapes spirit in the voice: that 'Apple Suckling Tree' mood and sound. I'm thrilled by this; need a complete recording, and not taped from alongside a moron who needs the toilet

[Terry Moran 🇺🇸 @TerryMoran]

We’re all supposed to pretend this isn’t happening a lot?

How does this make us look to the rest of the world?

[Al Jazeera English @AJEnglish]

BREAKING: Israel has moved Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, from a Negev detention centre to solitary confinement in Nafha prison.
