George Floyd was murdered over a counterfeit $20 bill that he assumed was real.

Cops have a direct financial incentive to pretend protests are dangerous.

Cool that you can head the most militaristic, hate-fueled think tank for 10 yrs, where you promote Charles Murray Race Science, advocate countless wars and the gutting of social security/food stamps then pivot to middlebrow “happiness” pundit telling protesters to stop being mean

Giving Israel every single thing it wanted for 7 months bought Biden exactly zero goodwill from Israel supporters, and meanwhile the left will never forgive him. Terrific work.

Our union is proud to have members like Claire Valdez running for office to fight for social and economic justice for working people.

I encourage our members in @uawregion9a to canvass for her and for the labor movement to support a labor champion for New York State!

Why does my national union NEA send out scam mail

one of the worst speeches made by an American president since the end of World War 2. if you were earnestly trying to secure a ceasefire deal, would you accuse one of the parties central to it of having a biological antisemitism imperative?

Pretty sure this is the longest correction I’ve ever seen

Israel has killed more hostages than they’ve saved in their war on Gaza. Over 100 hostages were released during the last ceasefire.

The assault on Rafah is another utterly despicable war crime.

As bombs rain down on a trapped and terrified population, we implore our government to find an ounce of humanity and end its complicity in this senseless massacre.

Wake up. This is not war. This is genocide.

The most stunning thing I’ve seen so far at #MetGala is the carpet bombing of and Israeli military incursion into Rafah mere hours after Hamas accepted the Egyptian-Qatari ceasefire proposal.

This might be the biggest “I have to apologize, I wasn’t really familiar with your game” of my life

Now at Hunter College:
Massive crowds fill the streets, no the pro Palestine and pro Israel supporters. A pro Israel supporter lunges at a Hassidic pro Palestinian protester from within a car to steal the Keffiyeh around his neck.

Folks are responding, now, with “how dare you boycott Hillel. It’s antisemitic to do so.” Nope! Can’t have it both ways. Either “go start your own Jewish org, leave us alone” is the move or “we are Jewish life. Boycotting us is boycotting Jewish life entirely.” Can’t be both.

happy anniversary to the kent state massacre, i guess. cops are celebrating the best way they know how.

Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s cabinet has voted unanimously to close Al Jazeera’s operations in Israel, according to a gov't statement aje.io/xpm6fe

witch hunts are BACK

college students referring me to their spokesperson is authoritarianism, American bombs wiping out entire family lines in Gaza is whatever, maybe nuanced and complex? my latest for The Atlantic
