Reconstruction was the first real attempt to build a multiracial democracy in America. That we abandoned it over a century ago is exactly why we must take up that work again now.
The moment is now. It has never been more urgent.
Israeli drone chased and struck a man on a scooter with his 12 year old daughter, killing the father. The little girl ran, wounded, ran and was hunted by the drone and struck again. She has succumbed to her wounds.
Guy at work referred to women as broads unironically but was doing so while complaining about all the shit women have to put up with on a daily basis from men. This is the average American.
No estoy de acuerdo con una agresión militar a Cuba porque eso es una agresión militar a Latinoamérica.
Dijimos que el Caribe es una zona de paz y eso debe respetarse.
Son los cubanos y cubanas los únicos dueños de su país.
El continente americano vivirá en paz si nadie propone imponerse sobre los demás.
Este continente es el continente de la Libertad y no de las invasiones.
Honor a José Martí y a las repúblicas libres y soberanas de Latinoamérica y el Caribe.
Woe to those who manipulate religion and the very name of God for their own military, economic, and political gain, dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth. #ApostolicJourney#Cameroon https://t.co/bKteFZ3iWE
As the world’s attention has shifted to the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, the killing of Palestinians in Gaza has continued without pause

After bombing a school and massacring young girls, the war criminal in the White House is threatening genocide.
It's time to invoke the 25th Amendment. This maniac should be removed from office.
Graham: They’re charging ships to go through the strait and they’re taking the Yuan and not the Dollar. That’s an attack on the Dollar. That needs to end.
🪶 An Iranian tribesman in the country’s southwest was celebrated on state media for shooting down a U.S. aircraft (he says a Black Hawk helicopter) during rescue operations.
In a televised interview, he described firing on the aircraft as his daughter urged him on:
“I told the kids not to come outside… After I fired a few shots, I heard her yelling, ‘Dad, shoot!’ She was shouting, ‘Dad, shoot, it didn’t come down, shoot.’”
Host (to his daughter): “Why?”
Girl: “For little martyr girls of Minab, for our dear Leader… to destroy the enemies, America and Israel.”
Host (to girl): “And why do you think they’re the enemy and should be shot at?”
Girl: “Because they’re child killers.”
The cross is part of the mission. The imperialist occupation of the world is disrupted from within; the violence that until now has been the law is unmasked. The poor, imprisoned, and rejected Messiah descends into the darkness of death, yet in so doing He brings a new creation to light. #HolyThursday
I'm told that Swalwell and Cleaver have returned to DC and would be available for a War Powers Resolution vote. The only Dem not in town is Rep. Jared Moskowitz, who said yesterday his wife is undergoing a routine surgery.
Democratic leaders have still not committed to forcing the vote.
Source tells me that Naval Special Warfare teams were also given deployment orders yesterday, as well as a bunch of Tier 1 operators.
That plus the 82nd Airborne deployment plus Netanyahu's obvious feint that he expects a ceasefire agreement this weekend suggests all the pieces are in place for a ground operation within day.
Gregory Meeks is now suggesting he might back away from a War Powers vote just as (and honestly because) it now may have the votes to pass.
Dems secretly want this war to continue bc it hurts Trump.
