One episode that I hope people will listen to now, if they haven't already, is this one from just over a year ago, with @FakhreddineHuda. We discussed Hiba Abu Nada, a Palestinian poet whom Israel killed in the early days of its ongoing genocide in Gaza.

I’m so sad to hear that the poet Ellen Bryant Voigt has died. I knew her only slightly. When her friend Louise Glück died, two years ago, she and I spoke on my podcast about fate, and loss, and poetry. I think about that conversation all the time.

Strongly recommend watching this video. To get out of his DUI, he tries to appeal to racial supremacy ("Are you Haitian?") and then, when that's failed, the humanity of his children. I wonder how many times on the job he's heard "What about my children?"

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

The western media has no interest in these hostage stories because it doesn’t see Palestinians as human beings. This will forever be a stain on humanity.

It’s hard to imagine basically any issue in recent history where a political party has been so insanely out of step with what their base wants.

Kirsten Gillibrand (who's in charge of electing more Senate Democrats) insists "9 out of 10 Democrats are pro-Israel." 8% of Democrats support Israel's war on Gaza. 75% oppose sending more military aid to Israel. 63% think the US supports Israel too much. https://t.co/0MzbWdfsjh

New reporting from Haaretz on Gaza ceasefire talks. - U.S. put Witkoff's face on a proposal that was really from Netanyahu. - Egypt and other intermediaries pressured Hamas to sign. - Hamas agreed. - And...Netanyahu walked away from the terms he himself had demanded.

Israel murdered a Reuters journalist. In a hospital. As rescue workers tried to recover his body, Israel murdered them. Live on TV. Along with three more journalists. Apparently "it's complicated".
