Get Israel out of Gaza. Get UNRWA in immediately to deliver aid at scale. Use whatever diplomatic and military means necessary. Get any politician who is not doing that into the Hague. Free Palestine.
“Precisely Designed Mass Starvation”: Aid Access as Weapon in Israel’s War on Gaza, Researchers Find democracynow.org/2025/7/21/fore… via @democracynow
There is no war in Gaza. It is an attempt to erase the Palestinian people from existence. It is a genocide. Starvation. Massacring civilians as they queue for food. Bombing hospitals, homes, and refugee camps. The international community must stop enabling this genocide, and…
Israel needs to be stopped. They have squeezed the remaining population into 12% of Gaza. They are murdering starving people queuing for food with white flags. They are sending in armoured demolition companies to destroy every single building in Gaza. They have murdered…

Chicago tribune reports 75 human beings massacred in Gaza - as they tried to get food. Every day the US funds this genocide is another day of infamy

Last year, NJ banned the reporting of medical debt to credit agencies. But the majority of states do not have such a law and will be hurt by this decision to undo the federal ban. axios.com/2025/07/13/cou…
Everyone opposed the OPRA bill but NJ legislators passed it anyway and the impact on government trasnparency is as bad as we expected. njdemocrat.substack.com/p/one-year-lat…
Medical debt doesn’t tell you if someone is financially irresponsible. It tells you they got sick. Trump’s decision to re-add it to credit reports will punish millions of Americans for having cancer, caring for a sick kid, or going to the ER.
