Congress held a hearing on “Judea and Samaria,” - the occupied West Bank - without inviting a single Palestinian witness. Lawmakers heard only from the Heritage Foundation, the Zionist Organization of America, and CSIS.

See new posts Conversation CODEPINK @codepink Today, Congress held a hearing on so-called “Judea and Samaria,” more commonly known as the occupied West Bank. Congress declined to invite a single Palestinian from the West Bank, even as they face constant settler terror, displacement, and military raids under Israel’s apartheid system. The only witnesses present were from the Heritage Foundation, the Zionist Organization of America, and the right-wing Center for Strategic and International Studies. We asked the Congressmen and the witnesses if they thought this was a fair hearing. They regurgitated the same propaganda we’ve heard for years. It’s not complicated. Palestine is for Palestinians.

🇺🇳 UN warns Gaza winter storm is putting newborns and displaced families at extreme risk ➤ OCHA says freezing temperatures and heavy rains are endangering vulnerable groups in Gaza, especially newborns who face a high risk of hypothermia. ➤ Winter clothes distributions have been scaled up from 5,000 to 8,000 kits per day, and about 200 families from shoreline areas are relocating to a new site in what remains of Hamad city due to repeated flooding. ➤ The UN and partners continue distributing tents, tarps, bedsheets and warm clothes while teams reinforce flood-prone zones with sandbags and clear storm drains and waste.

⭕️ More than 19,000 people are being held by the Rapid Support Forces in Dagris, Kober, and other detention sites across Darfur, according to a new Sudan Doctors Network report. The detainees include 4,270 police, 3,795 army personnel, 5,434 civilians, and 73 medical workers. Conditions are described as lethal: overcrowding, no sanitation, no medical isolation, and a cholera outbreak killing detainees amid medicine and water shortages. The network urges the UN to pressure RSF to release civilians, end arbitrary arrests, publish detainee lists, and allow families access. See new posts Conversation Sudan Doctors Network - شبكة أطباء السودان @SDN154 Sudan Doctors Network: The Rapid Support Forces are holding more than 19,000 people in “Dagris” and “Kober” prisons, including 73 medical personnel and a number of civilians and security personnel A report prepared by teams from the Sudanese Doctors Network, based on information from inside Nyala city, reveals the conditions inside Dagris and Kober prisons—two of the largest sites of forced detention in South Darfur State—as well as several detention locations under the control of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) across the Darfur states. The information indicates that wide-scale arrest campaigns have targeted members of the regular forces, civilian professionals, and political activists. Detainees are being held in environments lacking basic humanitarian and legal standards, and are being denied their fundamental rights. According to the network’s local sources, the numbers of detainees, prisoners of war, political detainees, and professionals indicate the presence of more than 19,000 detainees in Dagris and Kober prisons and in several RSF detention centers in Darfur. This includes 4,270 prisoners from the Unified Police, 544 from the Security Service, 3,795 from the Armed Forces, and 5,000 detainees from El Fasher, in addition to groups from army-aligned auxiliary forces for whom no precise statistics are available. The network has also documented 5,434 According to the network’s local sources, the numbers of detainees, prisoners of war, political detainees, and professionals indicate the presence of more than 19,000 detainees in Dagris and Kober prisons and in several RSF detention centers in Darfur. This includes 4,270 prisoners from the Unified Police, 544 from the Security Service, 3,795 from the Armed Forces, and 5,000 detainees from El Fasher, in addition to groups from army-aligned auxiliary forces for whom no precise statistics are available. The network has also documented 5,434 detainees from various civilian professions, including politicians and media workers, most of whom were arrested in Khartoum and Darfur. Among them are 73 medical personnel. The network confirms that the health conditions inside the prisons have severely deteriorated due to the spread of infectious diseases resulting from overcrowding, poor sanitation, and the absence of medical isolation. A cholera outbreak has begun claiming the lives of detainees because of the lack of medical care. Acute shortages of medicine, safe drinking water, and adequate food have become major causes of rising deaths, with more than four deaths recorded weekly due to medical neglect, alongside the absence of qualified staff and the lack of first aid or the ability to transport critical cases to hospitals. The Sudan Doctors Network calls on the United Nations and international organizations to pressure RSF leadership to release civilian detainees, provide necessary care, publish the lists of detainees, and enable families to learn the conditions of their relatives. The network also calls for the release of those who have not been charged, an end to arbitrary arrests of civilians, and improvements to the health conditions in the prisons. The network urges the international community to act urgently to protect detainees and ensure their safety in accordance with humanitarian and legal standards. #Sudan_Doctors_Network

Farrah and Muhanad have a lot of integrity and upon finding out that a scammer was trying to trick other Gazans by saying he promoted their campaign (when he didn’t) they decided to change the URL so he couldn’t do that- so this is their new link to their fundraiser now.

🔴 BREAKING: AI firms Palantir and Dataminr are rushing to claim their share of Gaza’s post-war landscape, +972 Magazine reports. Both firms are embedded inside the new U.S. military hub (the CMCC) in southern Israel, where Washington is building the security machinery for Trump’s Gaza plan, according to a seating chart seen by the outlet. Palantir’s Maven, an AI “kill chain” optimizer, and Dataminr’s social-media scraping tools are being folded into the new occupation model - one that sidelines Palestinians and deepens Israeli control. Their AI systems will be used for real-time surveillance of phones, social media, and physical movement to flag people the system marks as suspicious, and track so-called threats inside the “Alternative Safe Communities” – the fenced, highly monitored compounds the U.S. and Israel plan to move Palestinians into. The new setup mirrors the predictive surveillance Israel has used to target Palestinian families throughout the genocide. For Gaza, it points to a future of expanded digital policing powered by U.S. tech. Details 👇 +972 Magazine @972mag The presence of Palantir and Dataminr at the new U.S military compound in Israel suggests that Israel’s control over Gaza will remain deeply entrenched — with AI-powered surveillance and weapons systems at the center of post-war security architecture.

Like, your corporate bottom line is just inhumanity and gouging during a national crisis. If you have no humanity to the public, the public owes you no decency in return.

It’s a national emergency. If they are hoarding resources, simply take the resources.

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages
Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"
