You'll never change their minds. You'll never shame them into reality. They are dead-enders. #Focus

@axios Just for clarity, it should be noted Tennessee licensed a shelter for immigrant children a year before the state's Republican governor and U.S. Senators began expressing outrage over unaccompanied minors being sent to TN. #grandstanding

One is apparently called "sleepy." The other is ... a mermaid in Depends?

If the world doesn't pay attention to what is occurring in #SheikhJarrah, it is a wilfull act of ignorance. Israel high court rules to dispossess 58 Palestinians to allow settlers in. Clear violation of intl law. But w/resistance and media squelched, who will know?

[The Jerusalem Post @Jerusalem_Post]

Jerusalem police arrested Muna al-Kurd, an activist from Sheikh Jarrah, east Jerusalem, and her twin brother Mohammed on suspicion of "participating in disturbing the peace and in riots."

There comes a point where fighting voter suppression becomes fruitless. Placing greater effort on getting people to the polls wherever and however they exist - however fucked up it is - is the only way change will come.

@thehill @TheHillOpinion Always interesting to read opinion pieces that ignore the essence of science: As more data is received, new perspectives are gained. A new virus requires fluid decision-making as new info is learned. Ignoring this fact merely tunes the band wholly ready to dismiss expertise.

Dear Israel .. and America for that matter given recent NYTimes events ... journalism is not a crime.

US tax payers are underwriting this and by that, paying to make America and themselves less secure.

It's very simple: America should not be beholden to, protect or fund security partners that undermine US security.

@Jerusalem_Post @hatWRKS .@StetsonUSA will follow suit, I am sure.

[The Jerusalem Post @Jerusalem_Post]

A #Tennessee store named @hatWRKS has come under fire for advertising the sale a yellow Star of David which reads "not #vaccinated."

When your NHL team’s mascot demonstrates more leadership re #COVIDVaccine than your state’s governor. #vote

Whoever would have thought the GOP would sanction a cover-up of the Capitol Insurrection, have their darling members pledge allegiance to the former guy, piss off/on American Jews and tell followers they are obligated to utilize the 2A against their own government. #GQPTraitors

.@RepMarkGreen well documented phobia of all things not WASP is catching up to him. This #NIMBY Act is merely the latest incarnation.

[Rep. Mark Green @RepMarkGreen]

No state should be forced to pay the price for the Biden border crisis. The overreach and secrecy has to stop. My bill, the States Have a Say Act, blocks the Biden Administration from resettling refugees in a state without that state’s approval.

Remarkably well sourced article. Truly worth full read

Tennessee's legislature passed more anti-LGBTQ bills than any other state legislature this year. Writer @AbbyLeeHood reports on the organizations that helped draft legislation, coach legislators and lobby for the bills. https://t.co/lrFuUIg9ZA

Just curious.. are police officers required to have periodical psychological and sociological screening and examinations?

Six-year-old Suzy Eshkuntana was pulled alive from under the rubble of her home in Gaza after a 7-hour rescue operation.

An Israeli air strike killed her mother and all her four siblings.
