Cops drawing their guns on an active-duty airman who set himself on fire to protest genocide is just such a succinct and clarifying embodiment of so much evil going on with now. A first responder having to say "I don't need guns, I need a fire extinguisher." Fucking hell.

UPDATE: I got footage of the self-immolation at the Israeli embassy in DC. The individual, wearing fatigues, introduces himself as “an active duty member of the U.S. Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide.” After ignition, he repeatedly yells “Free Palestine.”

One thing, among many, that’s remarkable when US politicians accuse activists of being on the payroll of some nefarious force is these politicians are completely bought & paid for by special interests themselves, including the war industry. They can’t fathom sincere principles.

I love this so much. Nobody can afford anything, December is almost over and it’s barely snowed, there has been a shitload of mass shootings this year, nobody can afford their student loan payments, and we are funding a genocide. Great year on the books

I am never one to turn away a spotlight on journalist safety. But it is also not lost on me that American-made or -provided munitions could be the number one killer of journalists this year. Not Vladimir Putin.

This has been an extraordinarily dangerous year for press around the world. Many killed, many more wounded, hundreds detained, attacked, threatened, injured – simply for doing their jobs. I am profoundly grateful to the press for getting accurate, timely information to people.

although “achieving any part of the american dream” is at an all time low, “eking out a drab, meager existence” continues to show modest growth, so i think we can all agree the economy is excellent

The sheer stupidity of letting a tech oligarch steer this ship w/ his every moronic whim and the plaudits of the rubes and cynics who back him. “Decolonization” is the historical experience of the bulk of the planet’s population and arguably the central story of the 20th century

As I said earlier this week, “decolonization”, “from the river to the sea” and similar euphemisms necessarily imply genocide. Clear calls for extreme violence are against our terms of service and will result in suspension.

the goal, clearly, is to depopulate and therefore ethnically cleanse the entire gaza strip by making it uninhabitable. any reporting that pretends there is a military objective here is party to a crime against humanity.

Israel believes that several Hamas leaders have moved south, with some in Khan Younis, the largest city in southern Gaza. Nearly 1mn Palestinians had fled south after being assured that it would be safer there than in the north ft.com/content/72ff876d-5db9…

Every once in a while, the actual rules of the liberal international order become terrifyingly clear. This shocks people of good conscience in the First World, while billions of others, who do not have the luxury of this ignorance, see awful confirmation of what they already know

Tony Benn's remarks preceding the UK's entrance into the bombing of Iraq in 1998 are just as important today as they were then.

Jesus Christ forget words like “ceasefire” and “pause” for a second: do you want the fucking bombing and siege of Gaza to end or not? Do you think it should continue? Do you support a ground invasion? What the fuck do you empty shirts stand for at this moment, specifically??

I agree with @SecBlinken, @jamie_raskin, @BernieSanders for a humanitarian pause to ensure safe passage & so that food, fuel, electricity, & water gets to the civilians in Gaza, so that we can work to release hostages, & so that widespread bombs do not kill innocent civilians.

Every single mainstream news outlet that never felt the need to do it before now writes “according to the Hamas-controlled Ministry of Heath in Gaza” in their news coverage. This is exactly what the Biden administration—and by extension Netanyahu—wanted. They moved the goalposts.

This is what $36M means to libraries. For context, it amounts to less than one-third of one-percent of the NYPD’s $11B budget. To say we can’t afford it insults NYers’ intelligence, in addition to threatening our communities. We absolutely cannot pass these cuts.

Pete is lying here. He alone as Secretary of Transportation has the authority to instantiate regulation on the railroads and dictate standards for safety. That includes “emergency order authority” to announce unilateral rulings on proposed regulation meant keep the public safe
