The assembly process sucked all the partisanship and stultifying ideological labels right out of politics. Working on this (during the frenzied last weeks leading up the election) was without a doubt my highlight of 2024.

Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?

The BBC World Service has compiled material on over 160 cases where children have been shot in Gaza - and found that in 95 cases, the child was shot in the head or chest.

This clip with @PeterBeinart will become historic. A voice of conscience in an era of inhumanity and insanity. "The blood is on our hands as Americans because it is our weapons that are responsible for those children starving to death."

🚨WATCH: WFP Chief Cindy McCain describes how Israel killed over 60 aid-seekers in northern Gaza yesterday. She says Israel had cleared WFP trucks to enter Gaza—but once in, “thousands of hungry people” ran toward them. “They were hungry. They were starving,” she said. “All of a

New from @rahmin in the @ColoradoSun: Fort Collins tried a new kind of democracy — and it worked "Faced with yearslong polarization, the city turned to a Civic Assembly where residents forged common ground in two weekends."

The usual suspects who are dragging Bernie for this tweet will achieve nothing of lasting significance in politics, mainly because they’re allergic to the very notion of discipline.

Nine Palestinian children were killed in a single Israeli strike. Their parents are doctors in southern Gaza with no affiliation to Hamas. Palestinian kids are just like kids all over the world. They play, laugh and act silly. Dehumanizing them doesn't change the truth.

Just unfathomably horrific. The leadership of both U.S. parties - the Biden admin and now Trump - own this

In Gaza, an entire population is being starved. They could be reached - there are hundreds of trucks waiting to go in, currently denied entry. Women, children, families, living crammed together in unsanitary conditions, and facing dozens on airstrikes everyday:

Breathtaking, magisterial

I intellectually understand the backlash against “Defund the police” but there are sooo many examples of habitual liars and shoddy people throughout policing - and no national system or culture that roots them out. Plenty of examples in media and politics as well

BREAKING: Sky News reveals that the 15 aid workers—including paramedics and civil defense personnel—killed in Gaza on March 23 were attacked by Israel in an area not under an evacuation order at the time, contradicting Israel’s claim that coordination was required.

The Atlantic's decision to withhold newsworthy information over vague national security concerns is part of a disturbing trend in which media sees itself as an adjunct of the government https://t.co/d8pVHvxahm

Even among (some) progressives, there is an almost pathological obsession with speaking order, titles, rank, introductions, and other petty trivialities. Saw it up close!

You have to actually listen to the podbro shows at length to understand that they are not dogmatic. Too many on the liberal left don’t listen so aren’t aware, or have difficulty conceiving of something that isn’t purely with, or against, their team.
