🚨🇩🇪 Demonstrations are taking place across Germany today in memory of Henry Nowak, the 18-year-old stabbed to death while police handcuffed HIM as he bled out.
A remembrance march moved through central Dresden.
The case has struck a nerve.
I want Jews to understand how monumentally tone deaf this is.
we're meant to wait—our lives withering, our homes stolen, our loved ones killed, dying, or destroyed, our heritage erased—for American Jews to wake up from their stupor and tell us what political solution they prefer?
the fact that you believe that your preference (Jewish American preference) for how Palestinian liberation should look is itself an indication of how far you still have in your journey to a moral awakening.
focus on liberating yourselves and your religion. we Palestinians will determine what our destiny will look like in our own homeland. that day will come, no matter how far off it may seem now. whether we allow our genocidal colonizers to remain will be up to us. not American Jews, or anyone else.
🚨 @mjshrimper on #SaintsFC and Spygate:
“The key evidence was messages between Tonda Eckert and analysts. There appears to have been pushback from the analysts, ‘I’m not sure we should be doing this, I don’t want to do this.’
“Eckert telling them to get on with it, telling them, ‘I hope you come back with better stuff this time, because you didn’t come back with great stuff the previous time.’”

BREAKING: Southampton have been expelled from the play-off final 🚨
Middlesbrough have been reinstated for Saturday’s showdown at Wembley against Hull City ⚽️
The most asocial nerd I ever met was Gordon Brown. And I’ve known him nearly 50 years. Brown is a clever man but what he knows about people could be written on the back of a postage stamp. His insults about Mrs Duffy of my former Rochdale constituency sum him up exactly. He has seldom met an ordinary member of the British public who hasn’t been positively vetted for political correctness. And he’s not going to start now.
Today I’m pleased to appoint @GordonBrown as my Special Envoy on Global Finance and Cooperation.
As Britain’s longest-serving Chancellor, Gordon is well placed to work with our international allies to build a stronger Britain and boost our country’s security and resilience.
I barely recognized the journalist Ali al-Samoudi when I saw him this week. He had been imprisoned by Israel — without charge and without a trial — for a year, during which time he lost half his body weight.
He is one of 105 Palestinian journalists who have been imprisoned by Israel since October 7, 2023 — most without charge, according to @pressfreedom.
