A few thoughts about the coming wave of epiphanies from supporters of Israel, and how they will try to whitewash their prior complicity and refusal to condemn the genocide.

The Oligarchs Pushing for Conquest in Greenland
Trump’s fixation on filching the island territory from Denmark may seem like the demented ravings of a mad king. But to a cohort of plutocrat weirdos, it makes perfect sense.

I am calling for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agent that shot and killed Renee Good.
I am also calling on Congress to support my bill with @jasmineforus.bsky.social to force ICE agents to wear body cameras, not wear masks, have visible identification & ensure ICE has independent oversight.

@mattpolprof.bsky.social I just finished reading TPTOLS and it was really enlightening. I’m curious to learn more about the overlap between Liberal Socialism and Democratic Socialism, to the extent the Venn diagram isn’t a circle.

I am calling for Wilmer’s immediate release from NWIPC—he has NO criminal convictions, he poses no threat to the community, and he urgently needs appropriate medical care since ICE is denying him the treatment he requires.
I am grateful for Wilmer’s willingness to let me share his story.

This is Adelita Grijalva.
She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files.
She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.

This week, the Global Sumud Flotilla tried to deliver life-saving aid to Gaza.
Instead, 461 people—including New Yorkers—have been detained by the Israeli military.
They must be freed at once. And the deliberate starvation of Palestinians must end now.

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress.
Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights.
But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

It is insane that some are still talking about the casualties on October 7, when in *just the past four months* (since breaking the ceasefire), Israel has killed nearly 6x as many Palestinians as died on that day.
