UNRWA
UNRWA has enough food for the entire population of #Gaza for over three months stockpiled in warehouses––awaiting entry.

The supplies are available. The systems are in place.

Open the gates, lift the siege, allow UNRWA to do its work and help people in need among them 1 million children.

I have a hard time believing there was no classified info in the Signal chat given The Atlantic report of Hegseth's communications in the group about targeting and attack plans.

And ...

Pro Tip: The federal crimes that are most relevant to this do not depend on the information being classified.
Trump on military plans shared by Pete Hegseth in a Signal group included a reporter: "There was no classified information as I understand it."

AOC: What they like to call as radical, I believe is common sense.

I believe that when a person gets sick, they shouldn’t go bankrupt in the wealthiest country in the history of the world. Common sense

I believe that a minimum wage should cover the minimum cost to live. Common sense...

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.

The richest man in the world took over $5K out of this guy's bank account, claiming he was dead. The richest man in the world said he was saving money.

He was not dead.
I found a ‘dead’ person collecting Social Security in Seattle
“Dead” Ned Johnson turns out to be very much alive. It took him weeks to convince the system he was breathing and to start clawing his benefits back.

Defend the liberty of a stranger as you would defend your own, or that of a loved one, because that is what's actually on the table—whether we are a society that will sit still as our neighbors are snatched in the night, and disappeared into darkness, or a society that will fight for each other.

5 years ago today, Ahmaud Arbery was hunted down in broad daylight without hesitation, simply because he was Black.

True justice is a world where Ahmaud was allowed to grow old and thrive. A world where he was never seen as a suspect in the first place.

Rest in power.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.
