Decades of ethnic cleansing have led to the displacement of millions of Palestinians. Many seek refuge around the world, including Malaysia. But are we doing enough? I spoke to Heba Shehab, Palestinian Student in 🇲🇾 & Lubna Ghazali, Asylum Access. bfm.my/podcast/bigger-pictur…

Is it just me or have we stopped using the term Constitutional Crisis to describe these situations? Regardless if you are pro/anti monarchy, these are unprecedented challenges to constitutional roles, so why not call it that? Or is it because it happens so often, so why bother?

The AGC has rejected allegations by ex-PM Najib Razak's lawyers that it had defied the King's order by seeking court clarification on his house arrest, describing the claims as baseless. It stressed that the King's constitutional power to grant pardons and the courts' authority to interpret and determine the legal effect of court orders were separate matters. 🧵1
Najib Razak’s lawyers have demanded that the Prisons Department complete his transfer to house arrest immediately, saying all conditions under the royal pardon have been met. They also accused the AGC of disregarding the Yang di-Pertuan Agong’s order by delaying his house arrest, and urged it to withdraw its statement. 🧵1

People ask why we haven’t got an Abdul El-Sayed here, well👇🏾 and of course the brilliant Hannah Spencer Imagine if Zack had won his by-election instead of that corporate Starmer Labour candidate, how much he would have already stood up for what’s right in parliament. There are many reasons why there are so few paths to parliament for vocal pro-Palestine socialist candidates, but lack of talent is not one of them

Socialists now run New York, Los Angeles and Washington DC. The three most important US cities. There is actually hope, you know!
Los Angeles, I am deeply honored to be your next mayor. I just spoke with Mayor Bass and expressed my deepest gratitude for her leadership and decades of service. Los Angeles would not be the city it is today without her. I love this city. I believe in its people. The work ahead will be hard, and change will take time. And together, we are going to build a future as extraordinary as the city we call home. Thank you, LA. Let’s get to work.

HUGE: Nithya Raman wins the Los Angeles mayoral race. The two largest cities in America will now be led by democratic socialists. And 5 major US cities will have socialist mayors: New York, LA, DC, Providence and Seattle.

🚨JUST IN: Former PM Najib Razak has paid his RM50 million fine, allowing him to serve the remainder of his prison term under house arrest. The payment was made using funds raised through UMNO's Najib Razak Solidarity Fund, which has now reached its target, said the party.
Najib Razak's lawyer Shafee Abdullah has dismissed reports that the ex-PM is set to pay his RM50 million fine to serve the rest of his six-year SRC International sentence under house arrest at his Langgak Duta residence. "I did not receive any instructions on this. Maybe some reporters created this news," Shafee told FMT. freemalaysiatoday.com/catego…

After weeks of worrying about my mother’s safety, having my face plastered on attack ads against Abdul, right wing media overturning every stone in my life, trackers showing up to my events, hate messages & death threats filling my inbox, it was nice to actually sleep last night.

Using "religious and cultural sensitivities" is so divisive. Alcohol companies (and tobacco companies) should not partner with health & fitness events because alcohol and tobacco are antithetical to health & fitness. It's a public health issue not a religious one.
Hyrox Malaysia has withdrawn its partnership with beer brand Carlsberg for next month's KL fitness race amid concerns over religious and cultural sensitivities. Earlier, KBS said the event would not be approved unless organisers terminated the sponsorship and removed all associated branding and promotional materials. 🧵1

With their clear majority, @TheDemocrats must clean house. I call on @ZohranKMamdani @DarializaforNY @AOC and all others “progressives” to use all their power and influence to remove genocidal @aipac puppet @RepJeffries and work to elect a speaker who represents the party’s base.

The problem with the Malaysian political space, as others have pointed out, is that we often falsely associate conservatism with being Muslim, but in reality the vast majority of Malaysians are politically conservative & are against feminism. Hence why we don't really have a left
