The construction of camps to concentrate Palestinians, also known as concentration camps, has begun.

A report by the Israeli human rights group B’Tselem:
“Hell on Earth: Sexual violence, starvation, and systematic abuse — at least 84 Palestinian detainees have died in Israeli-run torture camps.”

[Maha Hussaini @MahaGaza]

The Israeli occupation’s demolition of UNRWA buildings in Jerusalem this morning is more than destroying walls, it attacks UNRWA’s very mission since 1949, violates the rights of Palestinian refugees, and aims to erase the support system they rely on

Israel deported an American Jewish activist after citing a photo of him at an anti-Nazi protest in Charlottesville—pulled from a white supremacist website—as evidence that he is “anti-Israel.”

What if rent was meat! What if bank was dinner? What if car payment was moon? Think about it.

"We don't do attorney visitation" isn't how the Constitution works. The federal government is blatantly denying people their basic rights under the law after an arrest.

[Nathan J Robinson @NathanJRobinson]

This will tear the Democratic Party apart in 2028. The base has shifted massively against Israel but the politicians are still acting like it's 1996 and you can't cross AIPAC. Will dampen enthusiasm and keep the right in power, just like it killed Harris's momentum.

The man who killed Renee worked for ICE for over 12 years, called her a bitch after he murdered her, and ICE agents prevented a doctor at gun point from providing medical aid. That’s not a training problem. We should be spending that money on healthcare not a lawless agency.

[Marc Lamont Hill @marclamonthill]

Today, let us remember Martin Luther King as he TRULY was: A Black radical anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, revolutionary Christian internationalist who was deemed an enemy of the State and assassinated for his radical work. Just about everything else is a lie.

I do not know if anyone in this world still cares, but a short while ago the director of Al-Shifa Hospital spoke about a new virus spreading among children in the tents, and about its strong and rapid impact on their fragile bodies. Here, no one fully understands what is happening, and there are no capabilities to uncover the truth or contain the danger.

Israel is preventing the entry of medicines and testing equipment, hospitals are nearly paralyzed, and fear is quietly creeping into people’s hearts. The bodies of children in the tents cannot withstand any new virus they have no immunity, no treatment, and no environment that protects them from disease.

The situation is worsening with every passing hour, while the world remains incapable or silent when it comes to pressuring for the entry of essential medicines and medical supplies.

Life cannot continue like this, in this ongoing hell. What is happening is neither normal nor humane, and it cannot be endured any longer. We need immediate and urgent action before more innocent lives, that have not yet truly begun, are lost.

The NFL broadcast can do a moment of silence for a racist YouTuber getting quick scoped but players can’t say stop bombing kids???

Last week from @stevanzetti: James Rodden, the attorney for ICE which we identified as the operator of a white supremacist account on X, is back on the job in a Dallas immigration court. https://t.co/9SSbpmMWJd

Democrats' response to ICE shooting a woman in the face is to offer them more money...

“In addition to appreciation, we want emulation. We need that out there in the streets in every city.” — Dan Troccoli, Minneapolis public school teacher and union member, on protecting our communities and resisting ICE

Absolute bad faith here. There isn’t some movement of people right now screaming to adopt Abolish Ice as a political slogan the same way there was for Defund. He’s saying ‘don’t say these words’ bc theres zero political imagination or urgency outside of fake data and scolding
