this is what israel has been doing for three years. murder civilians, deny it when the media reports it, admit it once the media has moved on, repeat.

This is what happens when truth leaves and all that remains is a lust for power/money and the demonization of your enemies. The New York Post has chosen to just abandon all reason. At what point do we ask, "what purpose does this company serve?"

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

The real King challenged this nation to move beyond visible signs of progress and confront the deeper systems that sustain inequality.

If you truly want to understand my father, study the fullness of his work, including what he said about poverty, education, housing, economic justice, and genuine equality.

Know more than the dream. Study the man.

Bro started having Epstein party flashbacks. Could barely contain himself for a moment. Tried to reel it back in with comedy.

Trump: These young beautiful girl in the White House, you know, they come in. These young, these gorgeous, beautiful girls. They say “thank you, sir”

[Drop Site @DropSiteNews]

Ta-Nehisi Coates rejects blaming voters who wouldn’t back Kamala Harris over Gaza for her loss to Trump in 2024, saying many were asked to vote for a Democratic administration enabling a genocide against their own families.

“That’s you. That’s not me. And that’s not who I want to be,” he said.

He drew a historical parallel: Black Americans didn’t accept being sacrificed for Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal, whose Social Security and housing programs were written to exclude most Black workers in order to win Southern votes, and Frederick Douglass pressured and publicly criticized Abraham Lincoln through much of the Civil War, warming to him only late.

The author of The Case for Reparations added, “If we get access to any sort of power, we can’t do what was done to us.”

Looks like the CIA (possibly with US mercenaries) murdered Ecuadorian fishermen and attempted to cover it up. These crimes cannot go unpunished.

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

We live in a country where the entire political and media class talks about antisemitism every day, conflates antisemitism with criticism of Israel, meanwhile prominent Republican members of Congress are saying this with zero pushback from political or media elites.

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Today in 1962, Nelson Mandela was arrested by apartheid police, with support from the CIA, for resisting white minority rule. He was imprisoned for 27 years. US government agencies listed Mandela as a "terrorist" until 2008.

[Pedro L. Gonzalez @emeriticus]

Racism is so integral to the MAGA GOP that its members boo at the mere mention of a foreign-sounding name. Lombardo had to remind these idiots that they were booing an American hero who was killed in the line of duty. This is who Vance winked at with his “President El-Sayed” comment. He wants to win over gutter racists for 2028, and it’s profoundly, unfathomably pathetic given that these same people think less of his wife and kids because they aren’t white.

[Summer Lee @SummerForPA]

This is what it looks like to put the many over the money.

Congratulations @AbdulElSayed and @DonavanMI13 on your historic primary wins!

Our fight continues. Onward to November.

[J! @jaysimms]

Summer Lee would cook this guy. Flambé, even.

BLITZER: If a Democratic Senate primary were held in Pennsylvania today, do you believe you would win?

FETTERMAN: ... Like, today?

BLITZER: Yeah

FETTERMAN: Uh. Yeah.

[Krystal Ball @krystalball]

Surprise surprise. Trump admin report admits that corporations commit way more healthcare fraud than immigrants.

[Luke Savage @LukewSavage]

It's very plainly a racist dogwhistle in the same way this was. Centrist Democrats are performatively woke when they think it's a useful cudgel against the left. But once they're facing any kind of insurgent challenge, they're more than happy to dial up the racism.

[Alonso Gurmendi @Alonso_GD]

An old colonial tactic. Send an expedition to bait the to-be-colonised into attacking in self-defence and use that as justification for colonial war and conquest

[Ryan Grim @ryangrim]

Brace for the irony: Will Lawrence said on a podcast in 2024 that the corporate establishment and pro-Israel war hawks co-opt the moral authority of the Black freedom struggle to defend their own position of power.

Now a pro-Israel group is secretly funneling its money to a Black Caucus-linked PAC to attack Lawrence for those comments.

IOW, doing exactly what he said they do and attacking him for calling it out.

[Krystal Ball @krystalball]

Deeply disturbing story. Survivors of US boat strikes allege they were kidnapped and tortured for days by the US military. The prosecutor investigating the claims was just assassinated.

[J! @jaysimms]

Why must we live in this fresh hell? "Is this a psyop?" Has become a standard question one must ask now (along with "Is this AI slop?").

If literally anyone in Congress could say something about this, that’d be great!

[J! @jaysimms]

This is actually a wild stat. SK just got leveraged ETFs on the KOSPI at the end of May. It took less than four weeks for their govt to regret that decision.

[fxevolution @fxevolution]

Statistics released by South Korea's Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) and reported in the news detailed that over 1.2 million leveraged retail accounts hit margin-call thresholds, with an estimated 320,000 to 360,000 accounts facing forced full liquidations by brokerage firms on July 13th.

That's some pretty wild stuff.

Today we talk about earnings season kickoff in the U.S. and what this could potentially mean for current prices and movements in the markets: 👇👇👇

[Josh Ruebner @joshruebner]

BREAKING: Senate Dems, under the leadership of Sen. @ChrisVanHollen & @SenSanders, unite to block the NDAA from moving forward because of its provisions to deepen US-Israeli military and intel relations. This is remarkable and further evidence the US is moving away from Israel.
