Maybe the most important interview I've done with @majorityfm. I spoke with Dr. Tarek Loubani today, a doctor who's previously been tortured by the IDF and was shot during Palestinians' peaceful protests in 2018, about what he's seen. I asked him: "What does genocide look like?"
Trump is taking on the "deep state" by dumping endless COINTELPRO blackmail records about Martin Luther King Jr, to the glee of white supremacists, while covering up pedophilic blackmail records, also likely an intelligence operation, that he and his buddies are implicated in.
By the way if you want to know why Israel is so obsessed with breaking off and occupying southern Syria it has nothing to do with protecting the Druze or border security or other narratives now being put forward for public consumption. The territory comprises the ancient Jewish…
Under increasing sectarianism, Syria as we know it is now gone. Israeli Prime Minister @netanyahu must heed the calls of Druze in Syria seeking to secede from Syria and forge closer ties with their brethren in Israel. My latest for @Newsweek newsweek.com/israel-must-he…
Under international criminal law, media institutions can be held liable for complicity by omission, which includes failing to accurately report on the scale and nature of atrocities, or focusing on narratives that distract from the reality of the violence.
Take a look at all the dark green in NY-10. Lander would be the perfect primary challenger to Dan Goldman.
Final round of the mayoral primary if it was Brad Lander vs Andrew Cuomo. 🟢 Brad Lander - 526,543 (54.4%) 🟡 Andrew Cuomo - 441,154 (45.6%)
In the final round of RCV, Zohran Mamdani won Hakeem Jeffries' Congressional District (NY8) by 11.6%. Jeffries, the House Democratic Leader, has not endorsed Mamdani, the Democratic nominee, ahead of the General Election in November.
Final, certified results in the mayoral primary. 1,071,730 people voted, which is about 32% of all 3.3 million registered New York City Democrats. Mamdani beat Cuomo 56-44.
GOP intentions for mid-decade redistricting TX: 5-6 seats OH: 1-3 seats MO: 1 seat Democrats have to respond or risk never being in government (or win narrowly in wave environments and never again)
In more signs of how Epstein saga is consuming House, House Oversight expected to subpoena Maxwell after GOP Rep. Burchett offered this motion that was approved in this panel. And the House is now leaving for August recess Wednesday — rather than Thursday.
The Iron Dome enables Israel's ability to commit genocide and belligerently bomb its neighbors with impunity. It is functionally a US-backed missile defense system for the 21st-century version of Nazi Germany. Israel must be forced to engage diplomatically with its neighbors.
The genocide of the people of Gaza continues as members of congress vote to fund Israel’s defensive and offensive military capabilities. This is immoral and no amount of excuses will ever make it ok.
I had a productive meeting with Mahmoud Khalil today who was illegally detained by the Trump admin. Students continue to be wrongfully disciplined for exercising their First Amendment rights and protesting a taxpayer-funded genocide in Gaza. Our institutions shouldn’t fuel an…
Zohran Mamdani’s victory was not just characterized by his success turning out younger voters, but his ability to remain competitive in parts of the city many wrote off for Andrew Cuomo—places like NYCHA campuses. via @patrickspauster: bit.ly/4eWhvMI
A statement from Dr. Martin Luther King's family on the release of the records: "During our father’s lifetime, he was relentlessly targeted by an invasive, predatory, and deeply disturbing disinformation and surveillance campaign orchestrated by J. Edgar Hoover through the FBI"
Phew! Our elections weren't corrupt enough

A top to bottom look at how Republicans -- and yes voters-- failed the flood victims in Texas, many of whom could not vote. My latest deep dive for @BitchuationPod is OUT NOW.
The steep price he paid was... winning his primary race by double digits.

A pilot had to explain to passengers that he had just avoided a mid-air collision. This pilot performed a go-round to escape colliding with an Air Force B-52. "This is not normal at all." Via @washingtonpost
Welcome back, Joe Biden
Honeymoon might be over--at the very least, little patience in the WH with Netanyahu's Syria policy.
