I called out @Betsy_McCaughey for calling Mamdani voters stupid. Share this clip so every young person turns out in NY. This is what the old guard thinks of you.
The Voice of Hind Rajab, a Gaza drama from filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania, receives a rapturous reception here after its world premiere here at the Venice Film Festival, receiving a 21-minute standing ovation, the longest at the 82nd festival. Lots of sobbing and tears throughout. #Venezia82
Congratulations to our Executive Vice President and Political Director, Candis Tall, for being recognized among the 2025 Black Power Players!
Her unwavering commitment to economic, racial, and social justice continues to inspire us all. This honor reflects her dedication and impactful leadership.
Since December, the UAW has been calling for a ceasefire in Israel & Palestine, and for an end to the war on Gaza. This week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to come to Congress to ask our government to keep supporting this war. We reject this insult to all those calling for peace and justice.
On Wednesday, July 24th, the UAW, along with the National Labor Network for Ceasefire, is joining a mass mobilization in Washington, DC to oppose Netanyahu’s visit, and to call for an end to all US military aid to this war. Join us: https://t.co/bLV7lxOOsE

This is the first genocide in history we have witnessed live in real time. Literally live-streamed 24 hours per day of bloodshed, destruction, horror and trauma.
"I cry on a regular basis when I see certain images on social media"
Sports broadcaster Gary Lineker spoke with Mehdi Hasan about the atrocities committed against Palestinians in Gaza, saying that he couldn't recall witnessing anything worse in his lifetime
CNN's @mchancecnn has an exclusive CNN investigation into an Israeli detention center just 18 miles from the Gaza border. He spoke with Israeli whistleblowers who detail abuse of Palestinians detainees.
Today, the General Assembly has spoken loudly and clearly, and adopted a resolution:

➡️recommending the Security Council reconsider the issue favorably.
➡️deciding to give the State of Palestine additions rights and privileges in their participation in the sessions and work of the General Assembly. #UNGA #ESS10
Our forthcoming book, Visualizing Palestine: A Chronicle of Colonialism and the Struggle for Liberation, is a tool for organizers to uplift Palestinian narratives.

Shame on you! You killed them at home, in the hospitals, in the ambulances, in the schools, in the mosques, in the markets, on the farms, in the refugee camps, while giving birth, while fleeing to "safety" waving white flags! The elderly, the men, women, children, aid workers, journalists and EVERYONE. You destroyed EVERYTHING to smithereens. And you still claim to be the victim! #AllEyesOnRafah
List of things Republicans won't cheer for during tonight's #SOTU2024:
- Women's political power
- Cutting $3 trillion from the deficit
- No wealthy person should pay a lower tax rate than a teacher or a nurse.
- Clean drinking water to prevent brain damage in children
