Political violence is never OK, which is why we had police in full riot gear body slam, pepper spray, and crush college students and faculty protesting mass, genocidal, international law-breaking political violence.
“It’s a precarious moment internationally and if we don’t hold on to the law, we have nothing to cling onto,” @christinalamb interviews the ICC Prosector who has indicted #Netanyahu#Gallant and Hamas leaders https://t.co/VHolRmZgyy
If American democracy is a choice between two cartoon villains then American democracy is already dead and the people telling you it isn’t are either fools or in on it.
It’s infuriating. How can you be part of a historically marginalized community, then turn around and be the face of violence, imperialism, and harm towards other communities? All for the sake of a seat a the table. It’s sickening.
According to José Andrés, Israel is waging "war against humanity itself"
Now he realizes what Palestinians have been up against for 75+ years, and why October 7 happened
And now he knows he was naive to believe Israel would treat his staffers as humans at all
“People are shocked & appalled by what the US government is doing.” Annelle Sheline has resigned from the US State Department in protest over the administration’s ongoing support for Israel & the war in Gaza. “I know that I speak for many people” in the department, she tells me.

Obama could have passed the already written Freedom of Choice Act in his first 100 days as he promised & won a supermajority campaigning on.
This is why Israel kept journalists out of Gaza. It doesn't want the world to see what @UNICEF describes as ‘utter annihilation’. “The depth of the horror surpasses our ability to describe it.” by @burke_jason https://t.co/yXzskIzrOJ
Today, Rafah holds over 1 million Palestinians displaced by Israel's military. In that same town 21 years ago, U.S. peace activist Rachel Corrie was killed while blocking Israeli bulldozers from demolishing homes in Gaza. https://t.co/0el4wzbFcj
Students for Justice in Palestine at the University of Texas Dallas troll a high ranking executive of arms giant Lockheed Martin
"...So would I just be doing small side projects or will I get to directly contribute to the murder of Palestinian children?"
New article! I wrote about the soft-focus autocracy of Biden and the brutal autocracy of Trump.

I was invited to an event last night where @RepJeffries was the chief guest.
I was given the speaking slot immediately before him.
This is how I ended my remarks.

There's great misrepresentation of my views (hardly new) bouncing around the internet today, and I'm posting my videos on the subject for those who are interested. I won't be getting into conversation about it on twitter, but I'd like my actual work to be represented rather than words taken out of context.
