It's wild to watch MAGA now sound exactly like Rachel Maddow and Adam Schiff when talking about RUSSIA.

Russian civilization has produced remarkable works of literature, science, religion, architecture, politics. It's fascinating to visit. Talking to Russians is not sinister.

John Bolton, according to CNN, will plead guilty to a felony of mishandling classified information, with a fine of $2 million and possible prison time.

Bolton previously urged that Edward Snowden be executed, and Julian Assange be imprisoned for life, for informing the public.

🚨NEWS: In a stunning House vote, lawmakers of both parties used their power to begin a process of circumventing Trump and legislatively forcing an end to the Iran War - with a bill that cannot be vetoed by the president.

This is what mobilization looks like in a country that claims to be fighting for ‘freedom and democracy.’ Zhytomyr

Rape with objects. Gang rape. Rape by trained dogs. Targeted genital shooting. Filmed. Photographed. Archived by the perpetrators. Across 12 named Israel detention sites.

The UN calls it a pattern. B’Tselem calls it a network of torture camps. Both are correct.

this is literally AOCIA's position. Her position, that was hailed by Hasan and the pseudo-radical media class as a huge victory and laundered as support for an arms embargo, is actually the position of AIPAC and Netanyahu and John Fetterman and Laura Loomer and Ben Shapiro

BREAKING - A Swiss Tribunal recognises the legitimate right to peacefully oppose the ongoing genocide in Palestine.

One again: justice for Palestine starts at home. It only takes people caring and applying Intl Law. And persevering.

"Ukrainian" drones... The reckless actions of European political leaders are covered up by a complicit media

At what point does this count as defamation?

RIP Marjane Satrapi, the great cartoonist and film director, best known for PERSEPOLIS. She was only 56. A great talent. She will be missed.

Israel yesterday kidnapped four women. Two are footballers in the Palestinian National Team.

Their names are: Natali Abu Dia and Rand Halwani.

Is it normal to kidnap footballers, @FIFAcom? Where are sports media organisations? This story should be the headline everywhere.

This is how Ukrainian men are assaulted during forced mobilization. Odesa.

Opposition to Israel’s genocide in Gaza is becoming a litmus test in some of these Democratic primaries, and it absolutely should be

Only France? The world must intervene with the required weaponry to drive out these land-grabbing, murderous settle-colonial savages. We are allowing the US-Israel regime to reduce us to immoral cowards.

This is western values to everyone.

This criticism is right on the nose. Germany is still conceptualizing the moral world in terms of nations, tribes, ethnicities. The lesson of the Holocaust is STOP DOING THAT.
