It’s wild how they suddenly remember all these other uses for money when it comes to ending a war, but not when the Pentagon requests a $1.5 trillion annual budget.

With $300 billion, we could end homelessness, fund cancer research for 40 years, and give every child free pre-K for over 7 years. Instead, Trump is sending it to Iran. This is not America First. Not even close.

Apologizing now for opposing Kamala Harris is a humiliation ritual. The Palestine movement spent the last election rejecting the duopoly and refusing to be bullied into lesser-evil politics. It’s sad to watch people abandon those principles the moment they decide they want a place within the system.

During the cross examination round, Rep. Espaillat asked Darializa Avila Chevalier to apologize to Kamala Harris over old tweets about the former VP. "I sincerely apologize."

Yup she is a zionist, in fact lots of Zionists share fundraising pages. Fundraising doesn’t make you part of the Palestine movement or an anti Zionist. People shouldn’t be following or uplifting these folks bc it causes confusion and allows them to create rifts in our struggle.

Smotrich was not the only Israeli official with disgusting views who marched in the Israel Day parade. This should not be surprising. Israel is an apartheid state committing genocide. Their elected leaders and the vast majority of their citizens support apartheid and ethnic cleansing. There is no way to march in a parade for such a state and not be associated with their crimes against humanity.

Smotrich isn’t “islamophobic”. He’s wanted for war crimes. And the New York State Attorney General was marching with him in a parade that celebrated his political project.

Honestly, Mamdani and his PR team are incredibly savvy. They're doing exactly what they promised: rebuilding the people’s trust in government, but through perception first. Take the Israeli parade. First, he announces he'll be skipping it. That dominates headlines and reinforces the image of a mayor willing to take a bold stand, even at political risk. People who were skeptical start questioning their skepticism because the move feels authentic and principled. Then, after that positive perception takes hold, you get something like the video below. He still announces that he won't attend the parade himself, so he keeps the positive publicity. But at the same time, he says he'll send a member of his administration instead: Jessica Tisch, whom he chose to retain despite her family's well-known ties to Netanyahu. Most people won't notice the distinction. A small number like myself will criticize it, but by then the mass deception has already been established. The public focus shifts from scrutinizing the contradiction to defending the image of a "principled mayor." The net result is growing support, deeper belief in the system, and no political cost for it. This is the same pattern I saw with his pro-Palestinian messaging. "Free Palestine" goes viral, his supporters rally behind him, and his popularity grows. Then later, he starts saying in interviews that “Israel has a right to exist.” When I called it out and challenged him directly, the base had already been manipulated into a loyal following built around a radical image of him. Only months later did my criticism start to go mainstream, but by then the cycle had already reset and repeated itself. That's what makes the strategy so effective. The headline-grabbing position comes first. The nuance comes later. By the time people notice the difference, the public perception has already been set and he’s onto the next thing.

WATCH: I asked Mamdani that while he won't be attending given his personal views, is the administration sending a representative on behalf of the administration to the parade? Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch steps in and points to herself. Mamdani nods in agreement.

fun fact: the NYT hasn't had a breaking news headline about a bombing in Gaza (~1000 killed by US/Israel since Oct 2025) or Lebanon (3,400+ killed by US/Israel since Oct 2025) since Oct 2025.

the disappointment i feel after being vulnerable is not rooted in the act of opening up but in the realization that sincerity is often received with far less care than it takes to offer it. there is something profoundly disorienting about exposing the most fragile parts of yourself only to discover that the person listening did not hold them with the same gravity you carried them with.

I began writing this book in detention and finished it fighting a deportation order. I wrote it because testimony is one of the few things that can make injustice visible before it becomes inevitable. My hope is that anyone who reads it understands: Palestine is not the exception, it is the warning. The rights we are losing were never only ours to lose. Thank you @HenryHolt

#NoLandToStandOn is Mahmoud Khalil's revelatory and powerful testament of protest, courage, and imprisonment—and the story of a man confronting the reality that he had become target number one in a regime shredding basic rights. Learn more: us.macmillan.com/books/97812504…

You know, the killing is so relentless that you almost get used to it. A classroom of children killed every single day. You write about it, you read about it. Someone’s mother digs herself up from the rubble. Someone’s father is split in half. There was a video of wounded man using his arms to crawl across the road. Another man is so hungry he weeps. You read the stories. Each one is more brutal than the next and somehow the brutality is banal. You are numb, for better or for worse. But there are moments in the day, maybe just a singular moment, when you actually contend with the magnitude of the tragedy, when you are able to quantify the loss and in those moments you feel crushed—there are no adjectives. There are people mourning their lovers. Students missing their teachers. Orphans. Widowers. Grandmothers who look just like your own. I cry when I think about the people who were martyred just hours before they could apologize for something, or confess to something, or have something to eat. Or the slain who believed they would survive. And as the rancid rotten people of the world pontificate and debate the definition of genocide, you are at war with yourself, trying desperately to ignore the material meaning of the word. You read the news and you read the news and it is so hard to accept that the dead, the thousands of people they are slaughtering, they are your loved ones and your loved ones’ loved ones. This isn’t just a bad dream.
