Wow. What a high level of consciousness.
Wow. What a high level of consciousness.
As we see police in dozens of cities beating philosophy professors, tackling economics scholars, body slamming Fox camera people, and putting chains on 100s of students singing songs and enjoying seder, it's important to see that these are not a few bad apples.
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.

There was no point in the Trump years that felt quite as bleak as this one, because even the fool’s hope of something better has vanished now. This is our compassionate, pragmatic president; our steady hand at the tiller. This is what America is.
Mike Pence's NYT op-ed is a perfect example of why I publish Abortion, Every Day: His column uses pretty much every language trick I've warned about for the last two years. He also repeats debunked lies about abortion that I sort of can't believe made it past a fact-checker…
Good question

Hamas fighters hunkering down in tunnels have small arms with dwindling ammunition. Hamas has no air force, tanks, or armed drones. Why is Netanyahu exaggerating their power? Is it because he wants to expel from Gaza the Palestinian survivors of his deadly ongoing genocide? -R
They cut public library hours and other city services so NYPD could play Candy Crush on their phones on the subway and catch $100,000 in fare evasion by spending $150 million in overtime (that’s a real number btw)

For Palestinians desperate to flee the war in Gaza, the price of safety is up to $10,000 — per person. @lisang reports on the obstacles preventing dispossessed people from fleeing a war zone. newlinesmag.com/reportage/the-…
@alex_sammon AIPAC doesn’t represent American Jews. It represents GOP billionaires and multi-millionaires who support the right wing Netanyahu govt in Israel—and who support right wing US domestic policies as well.
To be clear, the Israeli governments allegations against UNRWA were, like so much of what they've said during this war, complete bullshit. But Western governments went along with it, contributing to the famine now unfolding in Gaza.

@QudsNen More than 650,000 people in the United States are homeless. Majority of people take loans for their treatment because of expensive healthcare. Still, the government is using taxpayers money to complicit with Israel in its genocidal campaign in Gaza.....
Israel has massacred dozens of people waiting to collect flour 'If this continues like this, we don't want any aid at all. Every convoy coming means another massacre.'
At the age of 23, after graduating from Columbia University and working briefly for PBS, I went through 7 rounds of interviews and finally landed a job at the NYT as a news producer. On my 3rd day on the job, on the graveyard shift which was from 5pm-2am I had to fill out some…
It is haunting to hear Nex Benedict, in their own words, describe how school and state leaders failed, at every level of leadership, to keep them safe from bullying and harm. 🧵(1/8)
