I truly do not care if the guy had “bad politics” and I think it’s weird if you do. The most class-uniting event I’ve seen in my lifetime and some of you are turning it into a culture war because he retweeted Peter Thiel. This is unironically why we lose.

Pretty incredible -- though totally believable -- that the final DNC platform has a one-side condemnation of sexual violence, and it's aimed at Hamas, even as the Knesset engages in a full-throated debate as to whether the acknowledged rape of Palestinian detainees is ok or not.

[Rafael Shimunov @rafaelshimunov]

Kamala improved her response to Gaza protestors.

At the same time Biden admin unpaused billions in weapons to Israel, and unbanned unit that murdered a Palestinian American.

We are being good-cop bad-copped.

We need action not words.

EXCLUSIVE: Palestinian-American Layla Elabed broke down in tears while speaking w/ VP Harris before MI rally yesterday. Elabed tells us VP Harris will "100 percent" lose MI if she doesn't announce Gaza policy change & meet demands of Uncommitted movement.

@mayatcontreras @Cloud_eeah @OnebadbeochCook @Mp67029796 @deardrewdixon @KamalaHQ A phone call more than 6 months ago isn’t what I was thinking. And unfortunately she undid the good work of meeting UNM members when she told a group of Muslim women, ‘I’m speaking’. She needs to back an arms embargo asap.

@MAVrck184 @brandonghuff @NGrossman81 You mean like these protests? Because they haven’t achieved much yet…

[Tom Mellors @TomMellors]

@Cloud_eeah @OnebadbeochCook @Mp67029796 @deardrewdixon @mayatcontreras @KamalaHQ Exactly this. And if Joe blocks her she can go public about it - it would only help her win over voters. And what if she personally went to Qatar to join negotiations? Or even went to Palestine and met with the victims of the genocide? They would be much more powerful gestures.

@jeffstanbury1 @deardrewdixon @OnebadbeochCook @mayatcontreras @KamalaHQ lol as if Palestinians care who becomes US president. Either way they’re being bombed out of existence

#Nagasaki mayor Shiro Suzuki defended today his decision to invite Palestine instead of Israel to the peace ceremony.
The threats from U.S. and its vassals to boycott the annual event to commemorate the hibakusha could not work on the mayor, whose parents were a-bomb survivors.

It comes to a point where there aren’t words. Unelected head of state uses immense wealth to help ensure immunity of son accused of sexual assault by a woman who he met through the world’s most famous paedophile.

[Fire Brigades Union @fbunational]

Firefighters face a stark choice at this election; a transformative @jeremycorbyn-led government that will rebuild the fire and rescue service; or another five years of disastrous Tory cuts

@joejglenton Of course at RT, you never could be sure what was in the tea.

[Tom Mellors @TomMellors]

@joejglenton Thought that tea tasted a bit… cheesy
