“The government doesn’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. That is against their interests.
They want obedient workers, people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork. And just dumb enough to possibly accept it.”

NEW: Seth Moulton once called progressive populism a recipe for Democrats to keep losing.
Now his campaign is effectively telling outside groups to advertise him as a “progressive fighter” who will tax the rich.
A Wall Street-funded super PAC has already spent at least $5.4 million boosting him.
Israeli restrictions on food entry are stalling recovery from famine in Gaza as malnutrition cases climb, an IPC report finds. Two-year-old Hashem Abu Mustafa, born hungry in a Rafah tent, may already be beyond saving.

Palestinian woman and @MattMcBradley’s NBC team beaten by Israeli settlers in the West Bank. “They jumped out, beat us, then jumped back in the car,” said Bradley, who was hit twice in the arm and later treated at a nearby clinic. https://t.co/1uChvFPRPZ
So when you read about eight members of an NBC News Team being beaten by Israeli settlers today in the West Bank, it's important to note two things:
1. The settler wouldn't do this to Americans had they not received a green light from the Israeli gov.
2. Israel's gov would not have given such a green light unless it felt confident that the US gov - and Amb. Huckabee - wouldn't lift a finger to defend the Americans.
حاول هذا الناشط الأجنبي حماية مجموعة من الأطفال الفلسطينيين في قرية أم الخير في الضفة الغربية، فتعرض للتنكيل والاختطاف من المستوطنين الإسرائيليين أمام الكاميرات.
Imagine waking up tomorrow and not worrying how you will pay for healthcare, childcare, college, or taking leave from your job.
This isn’t a fairy tale, it’s reality in other countries. And it’s what we deserve in the richest country in the world.
Trump's tariffs have cost Michigan $5,619 per household — higher than every other state — just so Trump can play his little vanity games. Rogers will never call this out because he's corrupt and a coward.

I’m Jewish and what Ruffalo said is common sense. Israel’s wholesale murdering of Palestinians is being done with Oracle technology. The Ellison’s betray everything it is to be Jewish with their rancid behavior.
Maybe Democrat Party leaders can stop the twitter wars long enough to pay attention to actual voters across the country who seem to be damn angry. We need to be humble and get off this platform and get on the ground

Angie Nixon was 1 of 2 members of the FL House to call for a ceasefire in Palestine in 2023. Her colleagues chastised her.
Now, she’s the Democratic nominee for US Senate, overcoming tens of millions of dollars and the party establishment as a DSA member.
