A 33-year-old Gazan mother with ovarian cancer has had no treatment in the last three months, and the cancer has spread to her bones and lungs. After Israel attacked the enclave, cancer patients like her have been dying at double the pace as before https://t.co/Qmapzta6nO
New York City Mayor Mamdani just gave one of the most amazing speeches you will ever hear:
"We are told that America is exceptional because we are richer, stronger, and more powerful than everyone else.
"The truth, my friends, is that America is exceptional because here, nothing is fixed into place. The frontier may be closed. We may have walked on the moon. But the work of fulfilling the values first enshrined in the Declaration of Independence — that work endures, and it belongs to us all.
"It belongs, too, to our newest Americans: those standing here with me today, all of whom were recently naturalized. Nearly a decade ago, I, too, felt what you feel: the joy of no longer being just a New Yorker, but an American, too.
"You each hold a special power: the power to determine what America means.
"The powerful have always known their answer. America, in their view, is an arena of supremacy where only a select few are allowed freedom; where not all are created equal. America, if you ask them, becomes less the more people it welcomes. America, they will tell you, belongs only to those with the right accent or the right shade of skin. The rest of us, they insist, should be grateful for merely being allowed to visit.
"How small they are. How weak. How unoriginal.
"At every moment in our past, those who led through exclusion and isolation have tried to win power and enrich themselves by turning us against one another. Division is the oldest trick in politics — and the cheapest.
"But time and again, including 250 years ago, those forces of division have been vanquished by the forces of progress."
“The last people who have any right to lecture us about electability are the establishment who lost to Donald Trump twice. I don’t want to hear it. If you had anything to do with those campaigns, please sit down or exit stage left.”
I mean, @RoKhanna has a point.
En unas impactantes imágenes que se han vuelto virales, un estudiante judío evocó la memoria del Holocausto y las enseñanzas transmitidas por su abuela para cuestionar el uso del trauma judío como justificación del genocidio en curso en Gaza.
Mientras el estudiante confrontaba la visita de un soldado de las Fuerzas de Defensa de Israel (FDI), enfatizó que la frase "Nunca Más" es un mandato universal y no un eslogan exclusivo de un grupo.
“Mi abuela judía me habló sobre el Holocausto... me dijo: ‘Nunca más’. Esto no es ‘Nunca más’. ‘Nunca más’ significa nunca más para nadie.”
Además de hacer comentarios que, según él, desmontan la propaganda que equipara los crímenes de guerra israelíes con la seguridad del pueblo judío, el estudiante también describió la dura realidad de la campaña militar de las FDI: más de 70.000 palestinos muertos, más de 300 periodistas y más de 1.700 trabajadores sanitarios fallecidos, además de niños que han sido atacados.
El estudiante también mencionó el conmovedor caso de Hind Rajab, una niña de 6 años cuyo automóvil, según afirmó, fue perforado por 335 balas disparadas por tanques israelíes.
La protesta terminó con una clara exigencia de rendición de cuentas internacional: “Si la justicia es real, ustedes serán procesados en La Haya”.
A medida que más jóvenes judíos alzan la voz contra la ocupación, la narrativa de que Israel habla en nombre de todo el pueblo judío sigue debilitándose.
establishment democrats and republicans weren’t fearful he’d fail and ruin nyc. they were worried he’d succeed and represent the threat of a good alternative
THE WORLD MUST HEAR THIS!
Over 20% of Gaza's Population Has Been Wiped Out
Tucker Carlson Interviewed British Surgeon, Dr. Nick Maynard, who worked inside Gaza's LAST remaining hospital and he breaks it ALL DOWN.
76,000 killed by direct trauma alone. The Lancet estimates that figure is undercounted by 50%. Add excess deaths from untreated cancer, destroyed dialysis machines, starvation, and infectious disease, and some estimates put the total ABOVE HALF A MILLION.
Pray for the people.
Javier Bardem says in #Cannes that genocide being committed in Gaza "is a fact."
"You can fight against, you can try to justify it... it is a fact. If you justify it with your silence or your support, you are pro-genocide. Those are facts for me."

"if you think AOC... is somehow less progressive, less moral, less worthy of your support than MTG; if you as a leftist think she is better than AOC in any way, then I think you need help."
My deep dive on AOC vs MTG, especially their records on Gaza & Israel. I bring receipts:
The number of lies being told about @aoc - her politics, her views, her record - on this website this weekend is insane.
Some self-proclaimed leftists want to undermine and taint the most viable and popular potential leftist candidate for president in 2028. Also insane.
Zeteo documentary ‘Gaza: Doctors Under Attack’ just won a BAFTA in the current affairs category. Yes, the same documentary that BBC refused to air, once again proof that independent journalism is the future.
Chuck Schumer's two votes tonight in favor of bombs and bulldozers to Israel is yet another reason Senate Democrats must vote to remove him as leader post the midterms.
Israeli soldiers torture a one-year-old child in Gaza, including burning his leg with a cigarette and inserting a nail into his leg, according to a report, to pressure his father to make confessions
