I wrote about death and disappearance at the border, and the bipartisan fascism of the US deportation and detention machine (link below).
Officers are deployed at key points along the route as well as the form up point. There are additional officers in the vicinity of the counter protest. This week we have also distributed leaflets and deployed signage as a clear reminder about relevant offences.

This doctor’s crime was writing an oped for the New York Times and speaking to western media. For that he is being relentlessly tortured.
🚨 Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, head of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Gaza, has lost a third of his body weight in Israeli detention — surviving on just two spoonfuls of rice a day, according to his lawyer. She was recently granted access to see him at Ofer prison and reports: ▪️…
“The remaining hospitals will shut down within just 48 hours.”
URGENT | Palestinian Ministry of Health - Gaza 🇵🇸 🚨 After repeated warnings, we announce the suspension of services at the following health facilities (Public Service Hospital, Central Oxygen Station, Al-Salam Clinic, Al-Shatea Clinic, Al-Jalaa Medical Center, and Haidar Abdul…
Dan everyone knows party loyalty only goes one way. Progressive/left votes are the divine right of the party establishment, support from establishment democrats has to be earned through a series of humiliating public loyalty oaths to the real estate industry, Israel and Raytheon
If a more moderate Democrat beats a progressive in the 2028 primary (as in 2016 and 2020), it will be tough to convince progressives to unite behind the nominee when the Democratic establishment won't rally behind @ZohranKMamdani after his convincing primary win.
The Trump admin awarded a $1.3 billion contract to erect a 5,000 bed tent camp in what will be the largest immigration detention facility in the country. w/ @FolaAk @racheladhe bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
If professional objectivity means journalists can't speak out about Israel starving a million children in Gaza, can they at least speak out about the starving of their fellow journalists?
why the fuck is anyone asking him questions like this? are you insane

Published July 22, 2025. Day 654 of the Gaza genocide.
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.
AOC adopted a smug posture to justify her indefensible vote to send more money to the Zionist regime. Her indifferent tone was not incidental. By saying “of course I voted no,” as if this were a political no-brainer, she’s attempting to revive a defunct electoral adage: that…
Israel is starving thousands of children to death as we speak and yet smug, gawking CNN commentators are still demanding that Palestinians condemn Hamas. For what? What the fuck does it matter who anyone “condemns” while Israel is committing genocide?

Liberalism is, above all, process. Justice is asymptotic. We’re always ABOUT to sanction Israel, always ABOUT to have a ceasefire, ABOUT to have a two state solution. So long as there’s a PROCESS towards some high minded goal the fact of genocide can be morally compartmentalized.
Adam Boulton: "International statesmen from these 24 countries are getting closer to saying Israel is using starvation as a weapon of war" The ICC issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu for using starvation as a weapon of war 8 months ago.
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.
Hundreds of Israelis are now marching in the center of Tel Aviv against the starvation of Gaza at the hands of the Israeli government. Some are holding sacks of flour.
Reports of a big massacre after Israel bombed a cafe in Gaza City.
Israel imposed its total siege in Oct ‘23. US cut UNRWA funding in Jan ‘24. The fact that 2 million are starving now was not only foreseeable, it was deliberately planned and executed. Obfuscating this is genocide denial
ABC, NBC, CBS News ran token reports on Gaza starvation yesterday and had all the tropes: -“Hamas-run health ministry” -Centering Israeli denials -Framing it as the unfortunate result of a new “military offensive” -Zero mention of open Israeli starvation and de-population plans
This is a beautiful and moving #longread chronicle by @CarlosDada, out now in English, in my translation. Originally published in 2019, but still very much worth a read. I'm so glad @elfaroenglish decided to translate it. Read it here, and subscribe: beta.elfaro.net/en/from-the-ar…
