"Grassroots volunteer group to defend their town against rising settler violence" fundamentally describes the PLO, Hamas, PFLP, Hezbollah, and all anti-Zionist resistance factions.

When these guys get too effective, Israel will just bomb them and say they're terrorists.

I'm in Mashad and the US has just bombed railway stations and roads leading here to prevent more people from attending the final burial of Ali Khamenei. One wonders who the "scum" really are?

ICE agents shot and killed an unarmed civilian in Houston, Texas. The victim was a construction worker, a father of three US citizens, had lived in the US for 35 years and was applying for a work permit. He panicked and tried to flee when he mistook masked, armed ICE agents for thieves.

[Congresswoman Yassamin Ansari @RepYassAnsari]

This is unconscionable.

Children were murdered in the first days of Trump’s illegal, pointless war that has wreaked havoc across the world.

It is an abomination. It is a war crime. And it is why I’ve introduced Articles of Impeachment against Pete Hegseth.

I urge my colleagues to join me.

There's nothing like the confidence of someone who watches a sport for 3 weeks every 4 years.

Casual season is almost over 😮‍💨

In the U.S. he would become president.

Very heartbreaking news…

A short while ago, the water station we partnered with for our water project was directly struck, resulting in the deaths of several people and injuries to others working there.

As a result, we have been forced to suspend our water distribution project until further notice.

This station was one of the most important remaining sources of clean water in Gaza City and served as a lifeline for thousands of families, especially after most other water stations had stopped operating.

We are deeply saddened by the loss of life and by the suspension of a project that was providing clean drinking water to people enduring these extremely difficult conditions.

Madame Celeste Amarilla,
Vous êtes une femme méprisable et indigne de sa fonction.
Vous ne représentez pas le Paraguay, ce pays qui a transpiré la passion et l’honneur tout au long de la compétition. Par votre inconscience et votre racisme décomplexé, le monde entier a déjà oublié le parcours et l’effort historique que vos joueurs ont réalisés durant cette coupe du monde pour laisser place à une dame incompétente donnant la pire image possible de son pays.
Je ne laisserai jamais aux gens comme elle, la liberté de laisser propager leur haine et leur racisme à travers le monde.

FIFA is helping the United States whitewash its crimes around the world by hosting the World Cup in the U.S. As we enter the final rounds of the World Cup, with the finals set to be hosted in New Jersey, the U.S. continues to fund Israel's mass killing and displacement of millions of people, from Gaza to Lebanon.

The president admits he doesn’t know what a red card means, calls the referee ‘suspect,’ and confirms he personally asked FIFA to overturn it because it hit ‘our best player.’ Corruption confessed on camera. A dysfunctional country hosting a tournament it doesn’t understand and can’t win without rigging. The US has nothing left to do in football

[Joseph S Blatter @SeppBlatter]

Red cards are not overturned by political phone calls. They are overturned by rules, evidence and independent bodies. If a U.S. President intervenes with the FIFA President — and a player is suddenly cleared before a World Cup knockout match — the question is unavoidable: Quo vadis, FIFA?

Football must never become a playground for political power. #FIFA #WorldCup #GianniInfantino #DonaldTrump

@CuffsTheLegend That’s what happens when you have cap space lmao. Can’t blame Rob for the Westbrook trade that hampered our flexibility when it was LeBron and AD that pushed for it. Glad this era is finally over. Mutually beneficial. Bron can chase as usual and the Lakers can look to the future

Some of my oldest friends—the people I grew up with here in the U.S.—traveled to Seattle to watch the Iran–Egypt World Cup match tonight. As they were walking with their families—their parents and their children, three generations of Iranian Americans—they were aggressively harassed by a group of Iranian monarchists, leaving my 10-year-old niece in tears. A child.

My other niece was spat at after attending the LA match on Father’s Day with her dad.

Every day, these people show their true faces. Scaring children and intimidating families has nothing to do with democracy, freedom or human rights, in fact, it is the opposite. It’s clear why they align with Israel so closely, no one else has more expertise in terrorizing children.

El capitán de la Selección de Irán, Mehdi Taremi, explotó contra la FIFA y la organización de Estados Unidos.

“Esta es una Copa del Mundo desastrosa. Como jugadores profesionales no podemos jugar una competición en estas condiciones, no está bien ni es justo. Si la FIFA piensa que esto es justo, tema de ellos, pero no lo es. ¿Quién debería solucionar este problema por nosotros? ¿La FIFA? ¿EE.UU.? ¡No sé! Díganme un nombre. El presidente de la FIFA, Gianni Infantino, vino a nuestro vestuario después del primer partido contra Nueva Zelanda y dijo que iba a resolver todos los problemas, pero en realidad, la FIFA no hizo nada. Respondiendo la pregunta de: "¿Sienten que los organizadores de la Copa del Mundo, incluidos la FIFA y los funcionarios estadounidenses, prefieren que Irán sea eliminado de la competencia?", digo: Tenemos que luchar contra absolutamente todo. No podemos quedarnos en el país, viajamos y nos sometemos a controles migratorios cada vez que queremos jugar, ahora no podemos quedarnos en Seattle y tenemos que volver a Tijuana. Han hecho todo lo posible para eliminarnos, entonces desde nuestra perspectiva, sí, creo que lo quieren así, nos quieren afuera”.

We cannot consider #AI to be morally neutral. In reality, every technical tool embodies choices and priorities through what it measures, ignores, and optimizes, and how it classifies people and situations. Ethical discernment cannot be limited to asking whether we are using a system for good or bad purposes. It must also examine how that system is designed and what vision of the human person and society is embedded in the data and models that guide it. #MagnificaHumanitas
