The IDF is suddenly accepting the Gaza Health Ministry’s numbers because they know as well as everyone else now that it’s a massive undercount.
I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable.
Biden himself said they were fabricated!

It only takes 2 semis to fully block I5 at the Moda center before I84. But today only one parked there in the fast had traffic basically stopped and backed up past Alberta... Response to the truck being there was to close the lane and have no additional signs up for miles leading up to it.

This part of his quote is obviously and rightfully getting the headlines but the end of the clip is just as important:
"Saying everything that's on my mind would have a cost that's too great for me right now...I know I'm a foreigner and I am concerned, for sure."
"Saying everything that's on my mind would have a cost that's too great for me right now...I know I'm a foreigner and I am concerned, for sure."
"Every day, I wake up and see the news and I'm horrified. I think it is crazy that some people make it sound like it's acceptable, like the murder of civilians is acceptable." - Victor Wembanyama says about the killings in Minnesota

“Less than 10 minutes after I tweet [Free Palestine], I get a call from the commissioner of the NBA. Agents, people working with my foundation at the time, Texas. ‘You’ve got to erase this tweet. You’ve got to take this down.’ I’m like, ‘What did I do that was so bad?’”

This is amazing leadership from the new face of the league. He's stepping up to take the role. LeBron, the rest of the old current NBA players, and the Players union, should all be doing much more speaking out imo.

I know this is small potatoes in the grand scheme of things but these guys are paid with your tax money and have no real job. ICE isn't necessary. They don't get rid of criminals. They just terrorize communities. And THAT'S why they should be abolished. No need for reins. It's not a job!

Tonight, most (if not all) the Zipps bar locations throughout Maricopa were raided by federal agents. Community members arrived to legally observe and agents pepper sprayed the crowd least one location. Workers were taken.

One employee I spoke to was barely out of high school and terrified by what had just happened. Elsewhere in the valley, feds pepper sprayed observers in the face. There are reports more people were taken at other locations. Just completely terrorizing our community.
