If I live a thousand years, I can only hope to be lucky enough to be able to have on my CV that I worked on a case cited as US v. Fuck Face...

[southpaw @nycsouthpaw]

U.S. v. Fuck Face, et al.

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

AIPAC spending millions to back Haley Stevens in 2022 against Andy Levin was indeed a radicalizing moment for a lot of people in Michigan. In an interview with @daveweigel at the time, AIPAC’s president said they targeted Levin precisely because, as a synagogue president, Levin had strong standing to criticize Israel’s actions and defend Tlaib and Omar against attacks.

So Andy Levin had to be crushed.

@AIPAC never saw the hypocrisy in their targeting of someone specifically because they were Jewish. Or if they did, it didn’t stop them.

BREAKING:

Israel just dropped bombs on the Qaraoun Dam in Lebanon’s Beqaa Valley — a key water reservoir serving civilian populations across surrounding villages.

This is not a battlefield target.

It is a critical water infrastructure.

This is an act of genocide.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

Because Israel is deliberately targeting them, just like they did in Gaza.

[sarah @sahouraxo]

This is Tyre in South Lebanon today.

Israel is leveling entire civilian neighborhoods in one of the most intense bombardments yet.

One of humanity’s oldest cities.

Is being systematically wiped out.

And not a peep from the complicit international community, of course.

[State of Palestine @Palestine_UN]

Genocide.

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

Liberals think you can peace process this away. They think you can just coexist this away. That you can protest this away.

There are Palestinians who laid their lives on the line to stop this, they fought every single day to stop the theft of their land, the extermination of their people. Don’t let anyone ever convince you to condemn or forget those who used their last breaths to stop this.

[Zachary Foster @_ZachFoster]

Smotrich demanded the destruction of 10 buildings in Beirut for every explosive drone launched by Hezbollah. This is Nazism. There is an increasingly strong case to make that Israel is now perpetrating two genocides.

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

The footage out of Gaza the last few days has been horrifying, but the footage tonight is reminiscent of what we witnessed day in and day out through 2023 and 2024.

One friend in Nuseirat camp said that tonight was the worst night they’d experienced. It is the day before Eid al Adha and Israel, the ethno-supremacist Jewish nation it is, is slaughtering Palestinians as it always does before Islamic holidays.

[Zachary Foster @_ZachFoster]

In the past 3 months, Israel killed more than 3,000 Lebanese people & forcibly displaced more than 1 million. Ambassador Huckabee is confused why they aren't thanking Israel for cherry tomatoes. That state of the US Empire.

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

Israel is holding up the U.S. peace agreement with Iran so that they can do more of this in Lebanon, because apparently this is not enough

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

Every time there might be less war, Israel bombs Palestinians.

[Ahmed Shihab-Eldin @aseisfree]

Wanna know why Basque police beat @gbsumudflotilla torture survivors?

These are the same cops who've taken €1.6M in Israeli security contracts, trained by former Mossad agents, and equipped with Israeli surveillance tech.

[Sana Saeed @SanaSaeed]

The biggest gaslight of the past year has been pretending there are ceasefires in Gaza or Lebanon while Israeli slaughter and displacement of entire populations continue.

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

the american govt would rather try to criminalize delivering aid to a country we’ve starved, than punish the epstein class.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

How is this not the headline in every major news outlet?

[Zachary Foster @_ZachFoster]

Expect Israel to go on a killing rampage in the next 48 hours.

[Barry Malone @malonebarry]

Read that again: “on community kitchen”

[hasanabi @hasanthehun]

cuba has never been a threat to the us. it’s only threat was being a successful alternative. a country that fought & won its own sovereignty and dignity. we starved them for that & never stopped. between this and the nyt funding piece, we’re manufacturing consent for war.

[Eric Lee @EricLeeAtty]

Monstrous behavior by ICE and Alabama police, who blamed a Honduran mother for "abandoning" her child when they arrested & deported her without him. The son, Orlin, a US citizen, was then murdered by abusive relative and Trump admin wont let her return to bury him. Nightmarish.
