TRUMP CALLS OUT BAD BUNNY!


The use of children in their propaganda war is disgusting.

A Palestinian father sends his son towards IDF troops. The ‘father’ shouts ‘shoot him!’ at the soldiers, then he tells the little boy to throw rocks at them to try and provoke, so he can film a reaction. The IDF soldier gives the little boy a high five. A classic video of the…



Seems like everyone who interrupted this service should be arrested and charged. This is illegal according to federal and state law.

🚨BREAKING: William Kelly and a mob of anti-ICE extremists stormed a Cities Church in Minneapolis, disrupting a worship service and hurling baseless accusations that one of the church’s lead pastors is an ICE agent.



People are calling this a “hit piece,” but it seems like something closer to normal journalism. She’s telling the story, both good and bad, of the formation and development of UATX. politico.com/news/magazine/…


One of the best statements I’ve seen as to why this is decidedly not a genocide. Saying it often doesn’t make it so.

“People have different ratios.” — @TheEconomist Fact: In the Gaza war, Israel has demonstrated a historically low combatant-to-civilian casualty ratio (1:1.5 or 1:1) when compared to any urban warfare history with even remotely similar conditions, especially urban-centric wars,…

I wonder if the same people complaining about Trump's illegal and unconstitutional action had the same complaints about Obama's attack on Libya? Not that this defeats their argument. I think constitutional hypocrisy is inevitable, but it's worth at least noting it.


Beware, super old man take coming: If you paid lots of money to see a sporting event or a concert live, why would you want to watch the whole thing through your phone camera?!?


In sixth grade, I went to Virginia with my Grandmother to see colonial Williamsburg and our family who lived there.

Wow! So cruel! Israel must have put something in the water to give them three arms!

New video from Gaza. What do you notice?



The AI has been turned up even higher.

This is horrendous to see. God save Gaza. To donate 👇👇 gofund.me/a3b90f53



Her head is on backwards! Gaza AI is really popular right now!

New video from Gaza. What do you notice?



My algorithm seems to be generating these types of things all the time for me. It can’t possibly be true that 99% fail at this one?!?

Treat hunger strikers like the petulant children they are. Offer them food; when they’re hungry enough, they’ll eat. Until then, ignore them — they have the power to end the problem themselves. It’s not our fault they choose not to.


What could the Justice Minister possibly do? Force her to eat?!? This “developing emergency” emerges from her mental challenges. It reminds me of when kids refuse to eat their dinner. Should we bring in the Justice Minister then too?

One of the Palestine Action prisoners on hunger strike, Qesser Zuhrah, has been hospitalised. She's lost 13% of her body weight. I am urging David Lammy, the Justice minister, to get engaged now as this is a developing emergency.

I was the quiet one who one day decided silence was no longer an option. It started small: just one short post on a tiny page, with one simple question: “Why is asking questions forbidden?” I didn’t know that question would be the beginning of the end of my old life. Now…


So this “open air prison” justified October 7 attack? Can’t figure out what the narrative is anymore. Gaza was great and Israel destroyed it? Or Gaza was terrible and Israel had to be destroyed?

Palestine BEFORE the GENOCIDE!
