I really like this video by @DrJonathanTam on what it is to be 'Asian'. I don't identify as N. American, even if i was born here. I almost think we should do away with that system because it oversimplifies identity.

House looking to fuse the American and Israeli militaries in significant ways without a vote on the floor, just ramming it through tucked in the NDAA

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Tonight I plan to give Notice of Intent to bring forth a Privileged Resolution this week to force the release of all names of U.S. Representatives who have used your tax dollars to settle sexual misconduct claims.

Do you want your Representative to vote for this disclosure?

[Chance @RantsWithChance]

@shoe0nhead going through the same evolution and change as @joerogan. And by change, I mean having reasonable stances on issues and being pushed out by hyper progressives for not being woke enough.

I wasn’t foolish enough to expect a major reaction, but it’s still shocking to see such a muted response to a UN report that says the Gaza Genocide continues.

Palestinians are so dehumanized that Israel can deliberately kill CHILDREN without sparking global outrage or action.

@esaagar @DrJonathanTam And he has a great in depth on gambling in Asia. I'd love to see a debate on who is worse off with gambling: Asia or America.

@esaagar might like the insight from @DrJonathanTam on the history of the SEAbling nations. I especially liked learning about Indonesia 🇮🇩

Quick Q: what is stopping Russia from using a proxy, like Belarus, from launching offensive strikes on European nations and providing ground support as an assurance?

UPDATE: In a statement to Drop Site provided after this article was published, a spokesperson for Trump's "Board of Peace" said the organization “rejects the characterization that its efforts are designed to advance the interests of one side over another.”

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

⭕️ Drop Site’s Jeremy Scahill:

“Trump is in catastrophically bad narrative trouble because the Iranians won’t throw him a single bone. They will not go along with any of his lies, and it’s causing panic on Trump’s part...

I think the Iranians see him as the president who cried wolf. No one believes him anymore.

Iran feels it doesn’t need to play Trump’s game. The negotiations will proceed on terms Iran believes are fair.

They’re not demanding something outrageous. They’re offering a parallel track to resolve the highly enriched uranium issue and have said they’re open to down-blending it.

What they’re saying is: we’ve put fair terms on the table, and we’re not going to let you bully us, and we’re not going to help you lie to the world.”

⭕️ Trump Lashes Out After Senate Votes to End His Iran War

President Donald Trump attacked the US Senate after it adopted a resolution Tuesday directing him to pull US forces from hostilities with Iran, the chamber’s sharpest criticism yet of the war. The measure passed 50-48.

Four Republicans, Rand Paul, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Bill Cassidy, joined Democrats; Pennsylvania’s John Fetterman was the only Democrat to vote no.

Trump called the vote “poorly timed and meaningless” on Truth Social and said the Senate “has provided aid and comfort the Enemy,” branding the four Republicans “losers.”

The House passed the same measure 215-208 this month. A House Democratic committee has said they consider the resolution binding, setting up a likely legal fight.

Abhorrent!

The UN Independent International Commission of Inquiry concluded in a report today that:

- Israeli authorities and security forces have deliberately targeted Palestinian children resulting in genocide, crimes against humanity and war crimes.
- The intense scale and systematic nature of the Israeli military operations have continued – resulting in unprecedented death, injury and trauma of Palestinian children.

🇺🇸 🇸🇩 Sen. Chris Van Hollen says Congress missed an opportunity to use U.S. leverage to help end Sudan’s war after the Senate Foreign Relations Committee rejected two of his amendments on a bill:

1. Block U.S. arms sales and military transfers to the UAE until it is no longer supporting the RSF.

2. Prohibit U.S. military assistance to any country providing weapons to either side of Sudan’s war.

Van Hollen says the U.S. “shouldn’t just be talking” about ending the war, but “actually using our leverage,” adding that the Trump administration “claims they want to do something” while refusing to take “some of the basic actions we could take as a country.”

@ChrisVanHollen | @JulianAndreone

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

Israel is pursuing “a deliberate strategy to destroy the future of the Palestinians in Gaza by targeting their children.”

The UN’s highest investigative body concluded today that an aspect of Israel’s genocide involves “deliberately shooting children in vital organs using precision weapons”

And arresting, torturing, and subjecting Palestinian children to sexual violence in detention.

As media attention has almost entirely evaporated, the negotiations over Gaza’s future have been relegated to a diplomatic netherworld where Trump’s Board of Peace is attempting to force a Palestinian surrender that Israel could not achieve in war.
