The Democrats’ non-opposition is really the foundation of the fascists’ power. It’s like a moat of demoralizing incoherence between Trump and the millions of people who would prefer not to live under his dictatorship.

There’s no platform. Just a (D) brand as a foil to (R), a brand about being smart

After many years of reporting and writing, the day is finally here: THERE IS NO PLACE FOR US is out today.

I poured everything into this book, and I hope it ignites outrage at the fact that so many people in the richest nation on earth have been deprived of one of the most basic human necessities.

UK security forces used force to silence peaceful protesters, tearing the Palestinian flag from their hands as they stood against Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza and those complicit in it.

Someone please tell the New York Times, which today listed one of Trump's major 'accomplishments' as a 'fragile ceasefire' in Gaza. What a travesty. There is no ceasefire, as much as American media pretends otherwise.

People keep mistaking genuine horror for politicking.

The people who supported the DOJ under Biden/Trump condone child rape. They defended officials who protected child rapists.

Other people saw this as a clear moral horror and condemned the DOJ. That's the actual divide. It's not between parties.

The silence of the nurses
No nurses have been included in the health ministry’s primary care advisory group. Multiple nurse leaders have written to the minister expressing concern, but have received no reply. Why is the experience of nurses so rarely acknowledged? #nzpol

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Basma. Basma was a makeup artist and did eyelash extensions before the war. She lost her home and the tower she worked in was recently destroyed. She has 4 children Tulin, 9, Malak, 7, Kamal, 5 and baby Maryam who is just 9 months old.
