🤦♂️The FBI gave her the bomb and the gun and the funds to spend at Home Depot. The government literally encouraged and enabled this terrorist plot in order to foil it. One day they’ll have to admit this how the J5/J6 pipe bomb happened as well. H/T @KyleSeraphin
10-1 outspent.
endless smears.
64million in outside expenditures
organized people beat organized money tonight.
the work is only beginning. michigan will never be considered a swing state ever again.
Today, Gaza held its largest mass funeral ever - over 112 bodies that were only recently recovered after months of being under rubble were laid to rest.
And today, Abdul Rahman El-Syed won a significant victory in Michigan - a victory that has already sent shock waves through the Democratic and Republican parties, and is reshaping conversations at every level of American politics.
These two news items are not unrelated. AIPAC and its allies spent a staggering $65 million on Abdul's opponent, precisely because they wanted to continue using our taxes, our weapons, and our veto power to finance their genocide against Palestinian families. Let that sink in: AIPAC spent $65 million to secure one nomination within the Democratic party for one potential Senate position. And ...they lost.
For countless voters, this campaign became about more than a single candidate. The results today, after the last two years of brutal genocide in Gaza, and after decades of their racist Apartheid rule, put beyond doubt the reality that Isr@ael and its allies have simply lost any and all credibility in the eyes of average, hard-working, tax-paying Americans. Today's outcome reflects a surging demand among many Americans for a foreign policy that is shaped first and foremost by the interests, values, and conscience of the American people. It became a statement that no lobbying effort—foreign or domestic—should outweigh the voice of ordinary citizens, and no aid should ever be given to kill innocent civilians. The support of a candidate by AIPAC is now, finally, deemed by large segments of our country a liability, not an asset.
The dignity, courage, and perseverance of the people of Gaza in the face of occupation, massacres, and war have shaken the foundations of an entrenched establishment whose moral authority has steadily eroded. We look forward to a future defined by justice, not complicity - a future in which our country does not bankroll foreign wars and atrocities, but rather offers better services to its own people.
“Look what we’ve done here. I almost cried.” Unreleased documentary footage shows late US Senator Lindsey Graham celebrating the war on Iran, saying it was ‘the best thing’ he had ever done and revealing he had pushed for military action for years.
Congress is funding lawless violent thugs killing and kidnapping people on our streets.
They gave ICE the means of doing this. They can take the means back.
Rescind ICE funding now for heavens sake.
What Ro Khanna knows, but cannot say:
Palestinians have a right - in international law - to armed resistance against Isra*li occupation.
Palestinians have a moral RESPONSIBILITY to resist their occupation- period.
Democrats are imperialists. And yes, that includes DSA.
Never forget when an Israeli settler
literally dragged the body of a lifeless
child with a rope behind his golf court.
He can even be seen touching the body later.
A Muslim kiosk worker was stabbed multiple times by a white man in a mall in Utah.
When the man was arrested, he told police he wanted to kill Muslims.
Elon Musk, movies like Citizen Vigilante and the Trump administration have normalised this.
Peter Michael Larsen, a Trump loving terrorist, stabbed brother Sohail more than 15 times in a Utah mall after asking him if he was Muslim. You probably won’t hear about this in mainstream media or from your politicians enabling this bigotry every day. Shoutout to the brothers who courageously subdued the terrorist, and shame on the media and politicians continuing to incite these freaks attacking mosques and innocent people regularly now.
A Muslim kiosk worker remains in critical condition after being stabbed in an alleged Islamophobic attack at Valley Fair Mall in West Valley City, in the US state of Utah.
Police say the suspect admitted targeting the victim because he was Muslim and told investigators he intended to kill Muslims. Bystanders restrained him until officers arrived.
The accused has been charged with attempted murder and weapons offences, with the attack being investigated as a religion-motivated hate crime.
On The Passing of Lindsey Graham:
“It is not the least ironic that Lindsey Graham should pass away at a time the country is celebrating its 250th anniversary. Graham represented the genocidal impulse that has stained American history. As Americans we do not like discussing the fact that the country’s beginning and early roots are embedded in one of the most thorough genocidal campaigns in human history: the evisceration of 500 indigenous tribes. It is a history that remains undiscussed, and because it is
undiscussed it does not generate the kind of national shame that would prevent it from never being repeated, neither here, nor abroad……”

Those 5 innocent Muslims stabbed tonight is on Rupert Lowe, Nigel Farage and Elon Musk.
This is what happens when you spread blatant fucking lies about Muslims and their faith.
Make me fucking sick you liars!!
Just saw footage of a Palestinian father carrying the shredded body of his daughter, killed in one of several Israeli airstrikes on Gaza just today. Israel declared south Lebanon a combat zone and is demanding people leave while it continues to bomb and kill entire families. All of this is supported and funded by this country, by both parties - even if some within them offer shades of dissent.
Palestinians don’t have time. The Lebanese don’t have time. They are being slaughtered, they are being eradicated family by family, child by child.
Let’s talk about Rania Mallah, killed yesterday in an Israeli strike on Bourj al-Shamali in Tyre.
For 12 hours, Rania was buried beneath the rubble & known to still be alive.
Her family kept calling her mobile phone.
She would switch it on to let them know she was still there. Still breathing. Still waiting to be rescued.
To let Lebanese Civil Defence rescuers know where she was trapped.
Rescue teams pulled others out & kept digging with their bare hands in search of her, until orders came to halt all rescue operations until the following morning.
But they had Rania’s number.
They kept calling her.
And she kept answering.
She never spoke.
But they could hear her breathing.
For 12 hours, Rania lay there alone beneath broken concrete, stones, darkness, dust & fear. Most likely injured. Listening to voices above her, knowing people were trying to reach her but were being prevented from continuing.
Just like in Maarakeh, rescuers were forced to stop searching overnight.
Still, they kept calling her phone to give her hope. To let her know she had not been abandoned.
By around 1:00 a.m., roughly 12 hours after the strike, her phone finally went dead.
The battery had most likely run out.
This morning, rescuers resumed the search.
They found Rania.
Next to her was her mobile phone.
She had died.
Israel killed her twice.
The first time with a bomb.
The second time when rescuers were prevented from saving her.
