Remixing my reaction to
@standupdan
because it was making me laugh so hard - I thought you should see how hard I was laughing and maybe you need a laugh from Dan Ahdoot too!
“… which is a sort of a vacuum bomb, which to be fair the US has used before in Afghanistan but the idea of it being used in Europe is stomach churning”
The Senate just voted 72-11 to kill
@SenSanders
resolution to have the State Department report Israel's human rights abuses against Palestinians.
Senators voting not to kill it: Butler, Heinrich, Hirono, Lujan, Markey, Merkley, Paul, Sanders, Van Hollen, Warren, Welch.
SNL just had Nikki Haley appear as herself during their “Republican town hall” cold open……………..smh.
Ayo Edebiri: What do you think was the main cause of the Civil War, and do you think it starts with an "S" and ends with a "lavery"?
Students were attacked with a chemical weapon at a Columbia University protest - but we haven’t heard her or any Democratic leadership calling for an investigation on that.
Every time Israel denies the use of banned weapons of war, Palestinians inevitably produce the proof in short order.
Just remember that, as a principle.
Just a reminder that:
•A 6-year old Palestinian boy was killed in Chicago
•His mother brutally stabbed
•3 Palestinian students shot in Vermont, leaving 1 paralyzed from the waist down
•A Muslim was stabbed in Austin
-Yet no media talks about “Muslim” or “Palestinian safety.
It’s cool that C*n*ry Mission can get kids fired for saying “Free Palestine” at a rally, but guys like this can openly call for genocide and face no repercussions at all.
Dep. Commissioner Daughtry says he found "a book on terrorism" at Columbia. (The book is not a how-to book, but a history written by a renowned British historian.)
In our hyper-polarized and echo-chambered world, you have people feeling comfortable to organise a rave to block humanitarian aid, to women and children a stone throw away being who are decimated by an indiscriminate war machine
IT'S OFFICIAL: Israel has become the first country in the world to ban the sale of fur!
This historic victory will protect countless foxes, minks, rabbits, and other animals from being violently killed for their skin.
She advocated for withholding food and water from a population who eventually saw countless people starve to death.
And she gets a boost from the entertainment industry, without a blink.
There were 39 premature babies in incubators at Shifa hospital, at least 2 have already died.
As a journalist, I can only think about the complicity of every newsroom that has diminished & justified this; every newsroom & journalist that threw journalism out the door.
This is a children’s book that was written because the author was trying to explain what’s going on in Israel to his five-year-old daughter and he couldn’t find a resource with which to do it so he wrote one himself. Under the Rockets' Glow: Shira's Journey to Courage by Roman…
WATCH: Israeli settlers carrying mattresses and travel bags have stormed an empty Palestinian house in Hebron this afternoon under the protection of soldiers
Aleksey Navalny was a fearless advocate for his beliefs who died unbroken by the tyranny he opposed. He fought corruption, inspired millions and never wavered in his insistence on free expression, the rule of law, and a Russia that is accountable to the people and not a dictator.…
Israeli-Arab students are hiding inside the Netanya College, caged by a mob of 100s of Israelis who are blocking the entrance, waiving flags & threatening them.
Israeli-Arabs are becoming increasingly targeted, harassed & fearing for their lives at Israeli college campuses...
There should be no mass displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, and we reject the recent inflammatory statements from Israeli Ministers Bezalel Smotrich and Itamar Ben Gvir.
Eight years ago, candidate for president Donald Trump proposed his Muslim travel ban. Like millions of Americans, I was appalled.
Shamefully, he’s now calling to “restore and expand” his ban.
NEW: Rush Limbaugh is presented with the Presidential Medal of Freedom at the State of the Union.
Limbaugh revealed yesterday that he is fighting advanced lung cancer.
#SOTU
A sitting Congressman said “I think we should kill them all” about Palestinians and no major outlet has covered it yet.
Compare this to the manufactured outrage that’s generated about Rashida and Ilhan.
This should be a concern of every single person of conscience in this country.
They’re repeating the post-9/11 playbook, which criminalized and targeted Arab and Muslim institutions throughout the U.S.
This is a Palestinian Muslim family that was targeted, and the suspect was screaming anti-Muslim slurs during the attack.
Media and politicians are complicit in this boy’s death.
Who’s the one who “contributes to society”?
A) The woman who escaped war/poverty, speaks multiple languages and is uplifting generations to come.
B) Trust-Fund heir who gets paid to scream into a camera all day to satiate racists.
Des Moines Precinct 80:
Bernie’s group had 101 people
Pete’s group had 66 people
Bernie & Pete end up tied at 4 delegates following a coin toss.
This is democracy??? 🤔

“Thank you for walking through neighborhoods with your terrorist scarf.”
A Harvard graduate student wearing a keffiyeh, was subjected to Islamophobic harassment on campus by Eve Gerber, wife of Jason Furman, professor at Harvard's Kennedy School and a former Obama Admin advisor.
The wife of the murderer of 6-year-old Wadea Al-Fayoume said he was “concerned about events that could occur on October 13.”
The “International Day of Jihad” hoax that the media parroted got a kid murdered.
