At long last, the UN Human Rights Council has formally acknowledged that Hamas in Gaza carried out executions, torture, improperly used medical facilities for terror purposes, and engaged in violent abuses against women and children after October 7. The report captures only a fraction of what actually occurred, in part because documenting these crimes is extraordinarily difficult and because Gazans fear retaliation if they report anything to the UN or other investigators. The findings on Hamas were buried beneath a long section on Israeli settler abuses in the West Bank, but even so, this marks a significant shift for an international body that has long struggled to speak plainly about Hamas’s brutality in Gaza.
Most importantly, the report acknowledges but barely scratches the surface of how extensively Hamas has weaponized Gaza’s medical infrastructure, embedding fighters in hospitals, using patients as shields, and turning civilian facilities into operational hubs. The UN even notes that Doctors Without Borders evacuated non-essential staff from Nasser Hospital because Hamas was interfering with the hospital’s operations.
When I shared this information, including testimonies from Gazans who documented Hamas’s fascistic behavior inside hospitals, and photos of fighters emerging from Nasser Hospital after the ceasefire, the online “pro-Palestine” chorus had nothing to offer except accusations of Zionist collaboration, accusations of betrayal, and personal insults. This UN report is an indictment not only of Hamas, a violent extremist terror organization responsible for immense suffering, but also of every activist, journalist, and academic who chose to look away. It shows that Hamas’s crimes were so egregious, so undeniable, that even a slow, hesitant, and often ineffectual body like the UNHRC could no longer pretend not to see them.
Shame on anyone who still defends Hamas or ever believed its violence constituted “resistance” on behalf of the Palestinian people.
NEW: 😡Dems are furious with Bernie.
The Graham Platner fiasco was bad, yes.
But now, some Dems are tallying up everywhere else Sanders & his orbit bet wrong this cycle, raising questions about their judgement in elevating untested, unvetted candidates with skeletons nobody bothered to check for ...

I first met @AbdulElSayed through our dear friend Ady Barkan, who died of ALS while courageously crusading for Medicare for All, and there is no one who will work harder than Abdul to win that fight. We need Abdul in the Senate to end the reign of billionaires and special interests, so Congress can deliver for working people.
Abdul and I will also be partners in resetting U.S. foreign policy to achieve a just peace for Palestinians and Israelis, beginning by ending U.S. military aid to Israel while it violates international law and Palestinian human rights. We share the belief that the rights and safety of Jewish and Muslim people are inextricably intertwined, from the Midwest to Midtown to the Middle East.
It's kind of ironic that Beavis & Butthead here said that voters don't want candidates "grown in vats," but their entire process of recruiting Platner was a sort of mad science experimenet/talent search based solely on outward appearances with no vetting whatsoever.
If you're wondering how to do an antisemitism, this is textbook. @RoKhanna is not in Israel w/AIPAC, and isn't meeting w/senior Israeli govt officials. He's also going to the WB, presumably to meet with Palestinians.
Somehow, Heidi has decided that means he's "begging for AIPAC money."
@TroyJackson207 The lie of genocide has been debunked over and over and only low IQ morons keep repeating it in the effort to get more low IQ democrats to vote for them.
Preschool teacher Marisa Ibrahim Pangilinan shared a social media post referring to Israelis as “demons” and claiming they are “occupying America.”
Parents deserve to ask: If an Israeli child is in her classroom, can families trust that student will be treated with dignity, safety, and fairness?
TERRIFYING: The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have released new policy platforms that include eliminating the U.S. Senate, granting amnesty to all illegal aliens, defunding the Department of Defense, and replacing the President and Supreme Court with an executive and judiciary chosen by — and subordinate to — Congress.
NEWS: Daniel Moraff, the socialist grandson of the founder of Toys R Us, who recruited Graham Platner to run for Senate and only lightly vetted him, was barred from Rep Summer Lee’s campaign following at least 3 complaints of sexual misconduct.
PITTSBURGH, PA. - Yesterday, Payday Report learned that Congresswoman Summer Lee barred Moraff from her 2022 congressional campaign after receiving at least three complaints of sexual misconduct against Moraff.
Now, Moraff, who recruited Graham Platner to run for Senate in Maine, is at the center of a massive controversy after he admitted that he spent only a few days vetting Platner, who just withdrew from the Senate race after he was accused of rape.
Given the fact that both Congresswoman Lee and Justice Democrats stopped working with Moraff following these accusations, questions have been raised about why so many on the left trusted him to give a thorough vetting and assessment of Platner.
“Birds of a feather, flock together and Moraff and Platner were predators,” said one woman, who says she was sexually harassed while working to elect Congresswoman Lee.
NEW: Rep Pramila Jayapal (D-Gaza) is supporting anti-American Jew hater Melat Kiros for Congress.
Kiros refused to call the Boulder firebombing antisemitic, even though Mohamed Sabry Soliman planned the attack for a year & waited until the group assembled before attacking them with Molotov cocktails and a makeshift flamethrower. He shouted political slogans during the attack, including "Free Palestine" and statements directed at "Zionists." After his arrest, Soliman admitted his motive. According to the FBI affidavit, he told investigators that he wanted to kill "all Zionist people." He targeted the group because he believed they were Zionists; he had no regrets, and he said he would do it again if given the opportunity.
Kiros told Denver's 9News: "I don't know what his intentions were."
Kiros said the murders, kidnappings, and rapes of October 7 were an "inevitable consequence" of Israeli policies towards Palestinians during a livestream with known antisemite and anti-American activist Hasan Piker.
Kiros falsely called Israel's actions in Gaza a genocide,
supports a complete US arms embargo on Israel, falsely described Israel as an apartheid state, and claimed Israel functions as an ethnocracy
WASHINGTON STATE SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS @chrisreykdal⬇️
“We have a civil rights frame work in our state. It includes tr*ns youth. This is a biological question. It is quite simply INACCURATE to say BIOLOGICALLY that there are only boys or girls. There is a “CONTINUUM.”
@BRADLANDER IS ON @CNN and LYING OVER AND OVER ABOUT ISRAEL. He WANTED A POLITICAL SOLUTION TO THE KILLING AND KIDNAPPING OF 1400 JEWS. HE’S A TRAITOR TO THE JEWISH COMMUNITY.
