Tonight Sharone’s mother Yocheved has been released from Gaza, alongside Nurit Cooper.
“While I cannot put into words the relief that she is now safe, I will remain focused on securing the release of my father and all those — some 200 innocent people — who remain hostages in Gaza,” Sharone says.
In a world exclusive, @QueenRania of Jordan spoke with me about the ongoing bombing of Gaza, civilian deaths, the massacres of October 7, and what she calls “a glaring double standard” in the west’s reaction to all this. Watch our full conversation.

The #aquifers have to be recharged, which means replacing what we remove with recycled water and better management of stormwater. https://t.co/KAY23wpBTI
"while we tend to think about envisioning success as the best way to set goals and develop new habits, research actually shows that it's far more effective to imagine the catastrophic effects of failure."
paraphrasing @hubermanlab, by way of the originator at NYU, @EBalcetis.
“It’s a higher bar to say a former president should be indicted at the federal level than you have at the state level,” said Jonathan Shaub, an assistant law professor at the University of Kentucky’s Rosenberg College of Law who once worked in the Justice Department. #RICO
I talked to former D.C. police officer Michael Fanone outside the #Jan6thHearings.
Here is his response to seeing video of Sen. Josh Hawley running away from rioters after fist bumping them earlier in the day on Jan. 6 :
"Josh Hawley is a bitch", said Fanone.
I have been screaming this message for over a decade. What I learned is that these words are not enough. We need to, in real life, show up for each other. Do something federally. Do something statewide. Do something locally. Only we, the people, can do it. #civicaction#lgbtq+
