NEWS: I'm leading 64 House Democrats in calling for unimpeded media access to Gaza for U.S. and international journalists.
@POTUS Biden must push for independent access for U.S. and international journalists in the interest of transparency, accountability, and the fundamental principle of press freedom.
At a time when reliable information is more critical than ever, restrictions on foreign reporting undermine the very foundation democratic accountability.
Delve into the implementation, challenges, and ongoing debates of the Women, Peace, and Security Agenda with authors @PaulCinnam0n and @drljshepherd. Don’t miss this opportunity to discuss the future of #gender in peace and security!

As a journalist, my heart breaks for these two amazing Iranian reporters. Look at their beautiful eyes, full of life and courage.
Elaheh Mohammadi and Niloofar Hamedi were among the first to report on Mahsa Amini’s tragic murder at the hands of the morality police, igniting the fight for freedom across Iran.
Despite winning the UNESCO World Press Freedom Prize, they’re being forced back to prison.
So basically A woman who dared to show her hair was killed, and now two brave women who reported on this atrocity are being sent back to prison. This is the harsh reality of life in Iran today.
Every day we forget, we give the Iranian regime more power to silence them and continue its brutal crackdown.

These descriptions of war in fact lead to one conclusion: Israel’s Gaza campaign appears to be the most well targeted in history, anything but "indiscriminate." Evidence: after 79 days of 29,000 bombs less than 1% of "densest place on earth" killed including ~8,000 combatants.
@ajtfosp If Republicans really don’t think they are choosing their voters based on their fixed preferences, why don’t they pass nonpartisan redistricting proposals that Republicans favored 20 years ago?
Hamas has consolidated a ruthless dictatorship to maintain power in Gaza. While polls show that Hamas is popular in Gaza, no citizen there voted for last week’s grotesque massacre, and obviously, Palestinians residing in the West Bank and Israel had no voice either. Even while watching with horror as some Palestinians celebrate these terrorist acts, analysts must be careful not to conflate Hamas with all Palestinians.

@mattgaetz@SpeakerMcCarthy Who will be speaker now? I hear there are 214 votes for a guy named Jeffries? Maybe 4 Republicans could consider what they might accomplish with him?

As a former two-time voter for Trump, I will never vote for him again. He can’t get to 270 in the electoral college. He has no path. Voting for him in the primary is a wasted vote. It’s actually Trump who is the RINO so a true conservative won’t vote for him either. He will be convicted of some of the charges against him and it’s possible he does end up in jail. Especially in Georgia. This country has so many problems now that a Trump vengeance presidency doesn’t interest me either if he was able to win.
