The Netanyahu government has killed 50,000 people in Gaza & wounded 112,000.

Two weeks ago, they broke the ceasefire and have since killed 322 children & wounded 600.

The US must end its complicity.

Tomorrow, I will force votes to block $8.8 billion in arm sales to Netanyahu.

Cory Booker as he breaks Strom Thurmond's speaking record: "I'm not here because of his speech. I'm here despite his speech. I'm here because as powerful as he was, the people are more powerful."

The point of Senator Booker's filibuster is to be INSPIRED by this man to go find YOUR ROLE, not to wait for them to go save us now.

That is not this assignment.

Thread of places to go to get started. More coming out of LiST this Thursday.

You have to see this.

PoliticsGirl and her husband teamed up with the brilliant Timothy Snyder (author of On Tyranny) and the legendary John Lithgow to create something truly powerful. It’s important, it’s urgent—and it needs to be shared far and wide.

Jessica: When I hear Republicans out there talking about their plan for education in America, I don't hear them talking about making sure disabled kids have access to a public education.

Not in my name. This is horrifying.
if you as an American Jew do not want to be used as the excuse for Trump's destruction of civil liberties and basic democratic protections, the time to speak out is right now

Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked."

She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.

Azerbaijan Airlines flight crashes in Kazakhstan on Christmas Day; 38 dead, including the pilots, and 29 survivors… While I rarely comment on airplane crashes, I am doing so here due to some unusual circumstances. ⤵️

It’s Watership Down here on the farm. Seen in these tracks: bunnies, deer (of course), feral cat. I’ve seen the resident muskrat and mink on the pond, but didn’t get a pic. Also: the starlings who live in the wall of my cottage have been extra talkative the last couple of nights.

fascism is stopped when enough people say one of two things:
1) "nah, I'm not doing that"
2) "nah, you're not doing that"

a lot of people want to imagine how they'll say the second thing, but you should *really* start practicing the first one

As the white Christian nationalist admin gears up, it may be useful to see how the antisemitic tropes used today began & took shape.

Especially since they usually, more than other oppressions, rely on a certain invisibility, unspeakability.

Getting clarity what you’re seeing can be illuminating.

Gotta get the history to know where the tropes live in the discourse today.
