questions for Republican senators:

killing desperately-poor kids in Africa by cutting lifesaving USAID programs wasn't too
much for you?

slaughtering helpless men clinging to boat wreckage in the ocean wasn't too much?

how about ICE agents murdering a woman in her car?

23. Armenian

Invented and introduced in 405 CE, a unique alphabet now used widely in diaspora as well as in Armenia - as Hrant Papazian explains in the video focused on Armenian typography.

The attack on the Women's Center of Zenobia was committed in the mentality of daesh and HTŞ against the fundament of the Revolution - the Organizing of the women. But they fail, every attack on our sisters will increase our will and resistance!

Unknown attackers set fire to the Zenobia Women’s Center in Abu Hammam, Deir ez-Zor — yet such attacks will never break the determination of women fighting for freedom and a democratic society.

Armenia-Azerbaijan Deal Cements Tragedy | Opinion
For diplomats, it looked like success. For the 150,000 Christian Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh (Artsakh)—ethnically cleansed and fully displaced in 2020 and 2023—it looked like disappearance.

Ghislaine Maxwell’s attorney - addressing me directly - says there’s no such thing as prisoner work details outside the facility in the federal prison system. Yes there are. I have receipts.
From Twitter: David Oscar Markus & @domarkus X.com Dear @MuellerSheWrote : There is no such thing as work release in federal prison, so your reporting is false. All you had to do was ask any criminal law practitioner, and they would have explained this to you. I wish we had work release in federal prison — and I wish we treated people behind bars better than we do. How about you? I'm surprised to hear my progressive friends criticizing more humane prisons and Ghislaine's transfer to a safer facility, especially after she faced serious danger in Tallahassee. The outrage machine wants to turn a safer placement into a scandal. But it's still prison. And despite the soundbites, prison is a truly awful place. My response on Twitter: Hello, Mr. Markus. Here is the BOP policy that says Out Custody is eligible for work details outside prison. Will you go on record that she will not be allowed outside despite her waiver? Also, who authorized the waiver, and in exchange for what? The BOP policy reads: ₽5100.08 9/12/2006 Chapter 2, Page 4 OUT CUSTODY. The second lowest custody level assigned to an inmate requiring the second lowest level of security and staff supervision. An inmate who has OUT custody may be assigned to less secure housing and may be eligible for work details outside the institution's secure perimeter with a minimum of two-hour intermittent staff supervision.

We should recognise the Armenian genocide.

We've submitted a joint motion to do just that.

Have a listen why this is more important than ever now.

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.
