Every flashbang could instead be a meal for a poor kid. Every hotel room for a National Guardsman deployed to fire at our neighbors could house a homeless vet. Every "less-than-lethal" bullet pulled from a journalist's eye could be already needed healthcare for anyone else. All of this is a choice.

On a twitter space today, Sameer Project shared that we are about 2 weeks away from no food or medication left to buy in the Gaza Strip. If we don't act now over a million people will starve to death.

Been telling colleagues that the leaders most equipped to deal with this Trump administration are the same ones who had moral clarity about Gaza. It's because they understood how these polices are interconnected. Van Hollen has been and is one of those people.

Suing far right influencers who spread conspiracy theories about private figures to audiences full of unhinged and violent trolls is good, and more people put through these horrible ringers should do it.

1) Do something autocratic
2) Wait to see how people react
3) If they don't push back hard enough, carry on
4) If they do push back hard enough, "pause" it
5) Illegally consolidate more power
6) Repeat

Last night 1000+ Jews stood outside of ICE headquarters to call for the return of Mahmoud Khalil, the end of deportations, and the end to attacks on the democracy we need to keep Jews and everyone safe.

The detention of Mahmoud Khalil puts all Americans fundamental rights at risk. And if you can’t see that because you oppose his politics, well that’s exactly the reaction Trump and his cronies are counting on. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

The pro-Palestine student was arrested without due process for exercising his right to free speech. He will not be the last.
