More proof of the complete absurdity of the proscription of Palestine Action.
What a stain on this government that people in this country are unable to buy and enjoy the work of one of this generation’s greatest writing talents.
De-proscribe Palestine Action now.
It’s shocking to me that a celebrity like Seinfeld can not only get away with saying the most racist stuff, but continue to perform to such large audiences, while others like Ruffalo are immediately getting painted as antisemitic for no reason.
‘IT'S GENOCIDE, I'M INTO IT’ — Jerry Seinfeld DANCES as hecklers shout ‘22,000 Palestinian children dead’
‘I'm going to find out how much your ticket was & I'm sending it to Israel’ — he responds at his Chicago show
‘Rough the b*tch up’ — audience member as heckler escorted out
Aishe Ghosh and Neha Bora - two brave women who’ve been consistently leading the protests from the front, despite repeatedly getting detained - joined Rahul Gandhi in today’s protest ‘march.
Guess who chose not to.
Good of you to clarify that "independent lawyers" are the ones helping people out.
So, lesson no. 1 for CJP leadership @AshutoshRanka, never claim what you don't own. From now on, stop tagging her in tweets claiming you are sending a "CJP legal team."
Shun the old habits you picked up during your stint at @AamAadmiParty, of trying to lap on credit of others while doing nothing but public postering.
Try to unlearn everything, if and only IF you have genuine concerns and are serious about sustaining the momentum and support CJP has gained.
India and Indian citizens won't tolerate another IAC, where nearly every member is now sitting in the lap of the BJP/RSS.
And Ms. @whattalawyer, stop these banal arguments about remaining apolitical and statements like "stop turning this into a political debate."
Everything IS a political debate and it should be, for any genuine people's movement.
Stop this nonsensical facade of being apolitical while claiming to fight for students and citizens against a political entity.
Learn to stand for an ideology. If you don't have one, build one but stand your ground instead of constantly trying to fit in or clandestine efforts for AAP.
High time people get over these three men who always fail to hit the streets. Neha Bora and opposition parties are the face & fuel of this protest.
Wow! What coordination!
Delhi Police personal signals the goon to stop the camera person from recording. He immediately threatens the cameraman from recording.
Receiving disturbing reports of an incident from Maidangarhi PS area that I am hoping @DelhiPolice will clarify.
This is what I heard : “Advocate Fidel Tom, practising in Delhi. went to the Sanjay Colony Police Post, Maidan Garhi, after receiving information that some protesters had been detained there. On reaching the police station, he enquired about the detainees and about reports that they were being beaten by the police. A man in plain clothes then approached him and said that he was a police officer. When he asked why he was not in uniform, he became agitated and forcibly took Adv Fidel to the washroom, where he and several others beat him up brutally.”
When contacted by a reporter from @thewire_in about these reports, the SHO only said “I will find out and tell you”.
Concerned ACP and DCP are cutting their calls.
Violence against anybody in custody or on police premises is unacceptable. That a lawyer also seems to have fallen foul of this disregard for the law and constitution is especially alarming.
Jean Dreze: “We are defending the right to protest, right to assemble, right to free expression, right to vote…these are all basic democratic rights…” Gets whisked away by Delhi Police.
BREAKING
The Norwegian Nobel Committee has awarded the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize to Navi Pillay.
Pillay is a South African jurist of Indian Tamil descent.
She defended anti-apartheid activists, presided over the UN tribunal for Rwanda, served as a judge on the International Criminal Court, was UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, and chaired the UN inquiry into Israel and Gaza.
Pillay’s work on the Rwanda tribunal helped establish that rape can constitute an act of genocide.
Pillay headed the UN commission that concluded Israel committed genocide in Gaza. Her credibility was attacked by the Israeli government and various organizations that support the State of Israel.
Today I learned Warren Kinsella is a lobbyist for the Jewish National Fund
NEW: Here are the people behind the Israel lobby in Canada. https://t.co/v9w8j6PaLx
According to Ontario's Financial Accountability Office, Doug Ford's plan to put alcohol sales into stores cost taxpayers $612 million for the early rollout alone, and up to $1.4 billion in total by 2030!!
$47M for health care!
