Dep. Commissioner Daughtry says he found "a book on terrorism" at Columbia. (The book is not a how-to book, but a history written by a renowned British historian.)

The Sec. Blinken says in this clip that because of social media, the history & context of the conflict is lost and the emotion of the images & impact is what drives pro-Palestinian sentiment. What context would over 13,000 children killed be acceptable?!

Incredible historical document here: Blinken says Israel’s PR is failing because social media allows people a direct look at what’s happening, shorn of the ability to mediate it, and it lands with emotional resonance. Romney then says yes, that’s why we moved to ban TikTok

McDonald’s reported $1.9B in Q1 profits yet is 2nd only to Walmart on employees who receive welfare USA isn't $34T in debt because the poor rely too much on welfare & pay too little tax—but because billionaires pay too little tax & rely too much on corporate welfare. #TaxTheRich

A mere 8 years after Bernie Sanders almost won the Dem presidential nomination, most of the themes of his campaign — Medicare for All, anti-corruption, fighting corporate power & a laser focus on economic issues — have been largely erased from Dems’ national political discourse.

The NYT just states that Corbyn’s Labour Party was antisemitic as though it’s an uncontroversial truth when in fact it is a lie. In reality, anti-colonialism is what anti-racism looks like as geopolitics. Smearing it as antisemitism is a central mystification of our time.

If Kamala Harris focuses her campaign on "democracy" rather than on economic populist policies that help the working class, she'll probably lose. If she & her donors revert Dems back to the corporatism of the Obama years, she'll probably lose.

Israeli forces killed a U.S. peace activist in the occupied West Bank. Aysenur Ezgi Eygi, 26, was killed by a “deliberate shot to the head,” witnesses say. She worked with the same peace activist movement as Rachel Corrie, a U.S. citizen killed by an Israeli bulldozer in 2003.
