New @nytimes reporting shows US Embassy officials in Israel are blocking info from Congress on the killings of Americans in the West Bank.
I'm calling on @SenatorRisch & the Foreign Relations Committee to hold a hearing into this coverup.
The American people deserve the truth.
Starbucks is exploring a potential $41 billion takeover of Chipotle, according to Financial Times.
The deal would become the largest restaurant acquisition in history.

@NoahCRothman After these Nazis you work for are done with immigrants, socialists, and Muslims. I hope you realize they’re coming for your gay ass next
JUST IN: The U.S. has imposed sweeping sanctions on the International Criminal Court (ICC), cutting off its access to banking, insurance, software and other services.
Companies that provide services to the court will face penalties.

Ashley St. Clair: “I think the extremists are actually the centrists. I think the extremists are the ones who consistently come to compromises with evil. I think that’s extreme to make compromises with people who are destroying this country and pillaging the world. They’re the ones in the government who have caused so much harm with these compromises”
Yesterday, an ICE agent opened fire in Marble Hill. They shot a member of our community in the neck while he was in his car. His five-year-old kid was in a child seat in the back of the car when ICE agents fired at least 7 rounds into it. This was in the middle of the afternoon, with children walking home from school and people heading home from work. Federal agents put every one of them in danger.
When I was in Marble Hill last night I saw NYPD officers rapidly escalating violence. As I was trying to de-escalate, I was shoved to the ground by an officer. I witnessed unmarked law enforcement cars hitting protestors as NYPD officers pushed people out of its path. And instead of condemning ICE’s violence, Police Commissioner Tisch attempted to justify the shooting by reading off our neighbor’s past interactions with police.
The NYPD spent more time protecting a militia that just shot someone than protecting New Yorkers. Last night, the NYPD and Commissioner Tisch violated the spirit, if not the letter, of our sanctuary city policies and fueled the Trump Administration’s attempt to demonize our communities. The NYPD’s Strategic Response Group must be disbanded as quickly as possible, and Commissioner Tisch must step down.
In this district, there are mothers who are afraid to send their kids to school, workers who are afraid to show up for their shifts, and people who won’t call for help anymore because they can’t be sure who will come. That’s what it means to have a violent militia operating in your community. You don’t feel safe walking down your own street.
For decades, we’ve been told ICE can be fixed with more oversight, better training, or reform. But you can’t reform an agency whose purpose is to terrorize immigrant families. You can’t train cruelty out of a system built to enact cruelty. ICE must be abolished.
This moment demands that everyone step up. Elected officials at every level need to stop hedging and say it plainly: Abolish ICE now. Our city must enforce every sanctuary protection we have and city officials must ensure this cannot happen again.
Pete Hegseth is clearly coked out and thinks this is a video game.
Democracy in this country has fallen. They are returning us back to the worst chapters of our history.
Nidal Hasan should be held accountable, but his execution should not be entertainment at watch parties.
@DSA_Watch Lmao at the hug box in the replies. He’s laughing because Mike Rogers absolutely shit the bed in the debate. You’re such a fucking loser dude
Intelligence must draw on memory. The mind must not simply compile data — as an algorithm now does more quickly than we can — but recall lived experiences, which contain depths of meaning that only the human soul can recognize, and connect more deeply with the goodness of these experiences. Everything that is good begins “with the Spirit” and thus possesses a breath, a dynamism and a sense of communion that, once experienced, are engraved upon the heart. https://t.co/Ij21tkb3qT
Nothing to see here, folks, just the President of the United States trying to incite violence and riots in the State of Minnesota exactly like he did with the US Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
