....targeted 52 Iranian sites (representing the 52 American hostages taken by Iran many years ago), some at a very high level & important to Iran & the Iranian culture, and those targets, and Iran itself, WILL BE HIT VERY FAST AND VERY HARD. The USA wants no more threats!

[Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський @ZelenskyyUa]

Three years ago, our warriors liberated Bucha from the Russian occupiers. And the world saw what the Russian occupation truly is: people killed in the streets, people tortured, graves in the yards of ordinary houses.

Since then, no one in the world can say they do not know what Ukraine is defending. Ukraine is fighting for the lives of its people. It is fighting to ensure that no one, ever again, does on our land what the Russian occupiers did.

Eternal memory to all those whose lives were taken by the Russian war. Eternal gratitude to all our people who are defending Ukraine.

"The term ‘excited delirium’ should just be gone forever."

@iamjohnoliver of @LastWeekTonight calls to end the use of “excited delirium” as a cause-of-death.

Excited delirium is “at best useless, and at worst, racist pseudoscience.”

This time, Russia’s mass missile attack is deliberately targeting residential areas, not even our energy infrastructure. War criminal Putin “celebrates” New Year by killing people. Russia must be kicked out of its UN Security Council seat which it has always occupied illegally.

Half an hour into 2023, a first all-Ukraine air raid alert of the new year starts. Rot in hell, Russia!

The fact that #CNNNYE is depriving us of the national treasures that are drunk Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen is a goddam crime.

So maybe women give a shit about abortion huh?

Liz Truss has just asked me to become Chancellor. I told her to clean up her own mess.

The giant puppet of a young Syrian girl stands in for millions and silently speaks on their behalf. @JeffreyBrown has the story for @NewsHourArts.

Do you feel more people are receptive and respectful of the topic or that enough time has passed that this aspect of victimhood can be addressed? What makes now the right time in history to bring it to light?

[Theresa M. McMackin @TMMcMackin]

As a Holocaust scholar, I have seen more and more references to sexual violence mentioned within the scholarly community and by survivors in their testimonies. It seems that people are beginning to see the patterns that define other genocides existed during the Holocaust.

Thank you @colbertlateshow. "Tell These Stories, As Difficult As They May Be" - Ken Burns @PBS #USandTheHolocaustPBS https://t.co/WBQ4k8eT6F

If you’re watching Ken Burns’ latest documentary on The US and the Holocaust and you’re not floored by the ripples of history that are crashing into our present day, you might be part of the problem. We’ve been here before.

Mike Farrell and I today toasting the 50th anniversary of the show that changed our lives - and our brilliant pals who made it what it was. MASH was a great gift to us.

[Julia Ioffe @juliaioffe]

Bodies exhumed at the mass grave at Izyum (445 bodies)reportedly bear signs of torture.A body was found with hands tied behind its back. Another with a rope around its neck,its fingers broken. We knew after Bucha but it bears repeating: this is what Russian liberation looks like.

[Theresa M. McMackin @TMMcMackin]

@CaptPiccard Emily, for sure.
