On February 7, 2015, I made direct eye contact with Julia Louis-Dreyfus for 0.3 seconds.

there is something so deeply vile about how people can GRADUATE from school in the time they’re at rikers, A PRE-TRIAL JAIL, NOT EVEN A PRISON. THESE PEOPLE HAVE NOT BEEN SENTENCED WITH ANY CRIME

This is how you push through universally unpopular legislation. You start with attacks on groups most people don't care about (sex workers), under the guise of something many support (protecting kids). Then you keep increasing the heat until the frog sits in boiling water.

Apocalyptic scenes in Harouf, South Lebanon.

Israel dropped bombs on residential buildings in the middle of the night.

Entire families are now buried under the rubble.

This is so sad man

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

Trump is using the “antifa terrorism” framework to crack down on routine activism and free speech, rounding up anti ICE activists in Minnesota this morning—many of whom are union members and leaders. This is another major escalation.

Last year, Illinois passed a law to ban ICE from conducting arrests at courthouses. Now, ICE is not just ignoring the law - they’re ramping up. In the last 5 weeks, ICE has snatched at least 80 people from the streets of Chicagoland.

ICE fascists continue to ignore the law. Indefensible. Abolish ICE.

A very dangerous new nightmare we are living in Gaza City, and no one in the world is paying attention to it.

Days ago, the Israeli army installed huge military cranes, each about 30 meters tall, on the eastern areas it controls. These cranes are equipped with machine guns and cameras, and they fire randomly and almost continuously at tents, streets, and exposed neighborhoods.

Gaza City is extremely narrow, only 10 kilometers wide. A single crane at that height is enough to expose the entire city from east to west. Every street, every square, every tent, every house has become completely exposed. There is no place to hide, and not a single moment of safety.

In just the past two days, three people were killed by fire from these cranes. One of them was sitting quietly with his father in a small café, trying to breathe for a few minutes. Hours later, a 5year old girl was killed while playing near her home.

These cranes have turned the entire city into an open field. The latest military technologies are directed at civilians. We have become an open testing ground for their new weapons. The horror is not just in the sound… it is the constant feeling of being an exposed target at all times, where even children cannot run in the street without fear.

The games have been great but this has really been such a terrible World Cup outside of those stadiums. FIFA was banking on the excitement over the games quieting the political conversation, but the mistreatment of so many teams and fans have been the defining story.

Being accused of shoplifting is not a death sentence. Being the child of someone accused of shoplifting is not a death sentence. A one-year-old is dead because police decided to open fire into a vehicle knowing a Black child was inside.

Police will shoot a baby then attack you for protesting them shooting a baby

[Carolyn Hinds 🇧🇧 #FreePalestine #CongoInCrisis @CarrieCnh12]

The Mississippi cop killed a baby because the management at Walmmart claimed A BABY was shoplifting a pack of diapers (bis mother had a receipt), and now they police have unleashed tear gas on community members protesting the execution of a baby.

This is America.

Right now, the people of the ancient southern Lebanese city of Tyre (Sour) are cleaning up the buildings that were struck in an Israeli carpet bombing campaign along the ancient (internationally protected) ruins.

Police shot and killed a one year old by shooting at a vehicle allegedly involved in a shoplifting incident at a Walmart.

A one year old.

during this press conference it was said that all 15 of the defenders were conspiring to "injure" ICE agents. no ICE agents have been injured by anyone involved, as per the DA himself. a journalist in the crowd rightly noted that they were arrested for thought crimes.

[Sarah Lazare @sarahlazare]

This is a bad situation. 15 people have been indicted by the federal government.

[Sam Richards @MinneapoliSam]

Minneapolis is a witness to another stage of the spiraling down the drain into authoritarianism. The feds are arresting legal ICE observers and raiding homes.

racism, mostly. a huge number of people in the US would like to benefit themselves, but are horrified by the idea that people who aren’t white might benefit, too.
