This is a travesty. Our institutions need to stand up to Trump and protect trans kids at all costs.

When I hear Rubio talking about terrorism, I immediately remember the case of Luis Posada Carriles. He was the terrorist who planted a bomb on a civilian airliner, -Cubana Flight 455-, which exploded in 1976 off the coast of Barbados, killing all 73 people on board.

Despite facing legal proceedings, he was protected by powerful allies, lived freely in Miami, and died peacefully of old age at 90.

The Cuban regime certainly has many serious issues, but terrorism isn’t a word that applies to its classification. This case remains a textbook example of how the label “terrorist” is used selectively, depending on who holds power and whose side you’re on.

Looking at Israel-related measures now in play on the Hill, one would be hard-pressed to avoid concluding that Israel's govt & its allies in Congress & pro-Israel orgs want to ensure Israel's PM will be functionally (& permanently) granted a seat in the US situation room. 1/

Most people would see this image and get outraged. But the New York Times? They captioned it "An Israeli soldier BRIEFLY DETAINED a 12-year-old Palestinian boy".

Rob Base owned the summer of 1988. The music was undeniable If there's a Mount Rushmore of early foundational Harlem recording artists, he's on there without question. The physical is temporary but the music is eternal. RIP Rob Base. 🕊️

🚨BREAKING: ICE prisoners at Delaney Hall ICE prison in Newark can be seen through the windows as supporters chant "Si Se Puede!" (yes you can!).

Hundreds of ICE prisoners at DH launched a hunger/labor strike today demanding their freedom. They've been served worms in their food, black mold is rampant inside, Covid/flu is spreading, & they're getting no medical care. WATCH our @JordanChariton's FULL REPORT from DH earlier.🔽

BREAKING: Brittney Brown, a state employee who was unlawfully fired over a social media post about Charlie Kirk, has secured a $485,000 settlement with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.

One of the sleazier media tropes is when the US menaces a much smaller country that’s done nothing to the US and it’s framed as “heightened tensions” between the two countries. Cuba is being unilaterally starved and threatened by the US. That’s not “tensions,” it’s US aggression.

Lukhona Duma is missing. Let’s repost until she is found

@ReichlinMelnick Larger discussion misses the point that segregation laws were amoral, and Parks’s and the Montgomery activists’ protest strategy drove this home to the national public. Can’t believe we are still talking about this.

[Nick Field @nick_field90]

What a coincidence that Cuba finally decided to attack America after 70 years, right when the Trump Administration was planning their own regime change. What a strange bit of timing, oh well, let's not look into it!

Washington is very obviously building a pretext for war with Cuba. Cuban internationalism shaped anti-colonial struggles and embodied the highest form of internationalism. A country that gave so much to liberation struggles deserves more solidarity than it's receiving.

Jesus fucking christ. They made a woman appear for a criminal court arraignment even though she was 9 months pregnant and she gave birth while handcuffed to a bench *inside the courtroom*

[sam @sam_d_1995]

the underlying political angle here most people aren’t covering is that the Trump administration, New York republicans, and LIRR workers themselves (who are overwhelmingly Republican) feel emboldened to strike because they think it can help the republican candidate for governor

The COMPETE Act is a generational opportunity to curb a 50-year trend of widening inequality in the largest economy in the country.

The biggest companies in the state have made AB 1776 their top kill priority. But we’re putting monopolies and oligarchy on the defense. 🧵
