Another amazing report released by the Commission of Inquiry on Tigray Genocide (CITG). The assessment is methodical and comprehensive in scope and execution. Its findings are heartbreaking. This shameful era of war without restrictions must end or it will end all of us.

🚨 GEM Tigray calls for action: 1️⃣ Renounce all war alliances. 2️⃣ TDF & other Tigrayan forces must never fight each other. 3️⃣ Convene an All-Inclusive Tigray National Conference, fully inclusive of all political parties as well as women and youth.

If you are on this site to attack Islam or American Muslims maybe take today off out of respect for the thousands of Muslims serving in the US Military.

#Tigray as a testing ground, "the UN and humanitarian agencies must reform famine assessment metrics and systems to account for politically induced starvation. They must include urban and middle-income groups in their analyses."
The Tigray People’s Liberation Front says Ethiopia has broken their peace deal after drone strikes were reported. How famine was used as a weapon in the two-year war: https://t.co/flbbipugHE

This is the kind of sad shit that pops up in my timeline now.
I was watching Netflix’s new series Death by Lightning. It’s set in Chicago, 1880 - and this establishing scene pops up. In the foreground: •an Asian woman, •two Black men, •and a one-legged man - all walking together downtown. It immediately stuck out to me, so I looked up

Every new report on the consequences of Trump’s dismantling of USAID is more horrifying than the last. One model estimates it's caused 600K deaths — two-thirds of them children. We can’t give Trump a blank check to keep destroying life-saving programs.

What a sick joke the Supreme Court has become.
The Supreme Court has granted the Trump administration’s emergency appeal to temporarily block a court order to fully fund SNAP food aid payments during the government shutdown.

Not mafia tears from New York
COSA NOSTRA of my era - 60’s, 70’s, 80’s…. Would NOT be happy with Mamdani as Mayor! Cosa Nostra is not Marxist or socialist. We would have not allowed him to be elected. Agree? Disagree? Weigh in!!

This is mass murder on a scale we haven't seen in generations. Trump did this. Musk did this. The SCOTUS that allowed these cuts to congressionally mandated programs and an acquiescent @GOP did this. It's sickening.
