When we criticize oligarchy, what we're really criticizing is the ability of a 43-year-old failson, who did nothing to earn the $200 billion he is set to inherit, to unilaterally impose his will on the AGs of a dozen states including California and New York.
Remember that the West is starving Cuba, like they’re doing to Gaza. These barbaric acts of human sacrifice for political, imperialistic gains are universal against the Global South and Indigenous populations in the West
Columbia students organized a tenant union and are demanding Columbia make all of its vacant apartments available to non-student community members at affordable rents.
This rocks and we need more of this everywhere. Watch our latest!
When The Sameer Project cannot reach this camp, young Amir knows what comes next: he takes an empty pot and waits in line at a community kitchen, hoping there will still be enough food when his turn comes. https://t.co/tBID55PLB5
On August 29, we returned to Al-Qassam Square in the Beit Lahia Project and delivered 521 ready-made meals of rice with kofta, at a total cost of $1,463 after 11% commission fees.
For families already living through displacement, hunger and constant uncertainty, food should not require another exhausting wait.
The Sameer Project brings hot meals directly to families in their tents. No child should have to stand with an empty pot wondering whether they will eat that day. This is what your donations make possible: food delivered with consistency, care and dignity.
Become a monthly donor to our Food and Water Campaign link in our bio. Let’s make sure children like Amir will not have to search for food only to return empty handed.

“I wish we would have done more”
Nonsense. Jake Sullivan & everyone in Biden Admin was hounded everyday to stop sending arms to Israel but Jake chose Yoav Gallant. Non-stop protests failed to stop the genocide, but did do this: Made it IMPOSSIBLE for anyone to claim ignorance.
Do you remember my father’s cousin, who was slaughtered on October 13, 2023, along with his wife, children, and grandchildren? Thirty-one members of his family were wiped out in a single strike.
Do you remember the Joha family, whose family tree I researched and posted? More than 90 members of that family were wiped out in a single strike.
For me, as a Palestinian, this is not news.
When I read “close to 300,” I know they are referring to the Al-Hasayna and Abu Sharia families in November 2023, and the Abu Nasser family in October 2024.
I know they are also referring to the Jabalia massacre on October 31, 2023, when around 400 people were killed, injured, or went missing. I was close to 500 meters away from the massacre when it happened.
We have been telling these stories over and over again, for years. But nothing has held Israel accountable for its war crimes.
And now these Israeli soldiers are breaking their silence. After what?
Was one of them involved in the killing of my great-aunt and her family? My wife’s great-uncle and his family? My second cousins and their families? My father-in-law?
You need to break the bones of the system behind this evil. Break the warplanes. Break the tanks. Break the artillery.
You need a revolution, not merely a breaking of the silence.
Gaza returns to school after a three-year hiatus due to the ongoing genocide.
The classrooms are threadbare makeshift tents.
400,000 students have attended.
This is a young, gorgeous Palestinian girl from the occupied West crying in joy at seeing her tortured hostage father after four years in Israeli dungeons.
If she were Israeli, Western mainstream media would make it front-page news.
This is why you can cry about me as much as you’d like. Your emotional support apartheid state will be held accountable one day for its genocide of the Palestinians.
I love watching the effective Overton window in the exercise of political power shift in real time
Shaheen didn’t face a primary this cycle, but it’s clear she’s kept up with the results & sees the progressive ascendancy
"We are not like everybody else & that is why all the laws that apply to everyone else don't apply to us... the Jewish people are a high-born people"
Israeli MP Hanoch Milwidsky, Chair of the Knesset's Finance Committee, senior leader in Netanyahu's Likud party suspected of r@pe
Never forget that Rahm Emanuel and his political theory--Democrats should be as Republican as possible--was responsible for the electoral destruction of the Democratic Party from 2010 to 2016, a catastrophe from which the US, and indeed the world, may not recover.
