Anyone who sees this and thinks it's okay for people like this to be subjected to what they've gone through is the lowest of the low. I can't imagine their heartache and terror.

Israel has kidnapped 4 French elected officials in international waters — including MEPs Rima Hassan and Emma Fourreau.

Their “crime”?

Bringing baby formula to starving children in Gaza.

They are STILL illegally languishing in Israeli dungeons.

Still no peep from Macron

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.

“#Gaza is being completely obliterated.” - UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini

Children are starving.
Families are forcibly displaced.
People are terrified.

With the large-scale Israeli military operation happening now, political will and decision-making is needed more than ever.

The people have to take their country back. Placards and protests won't do it. Voting won't do it. The gravity of the situation requires large scale disruptive direct action and civil disobedience. The entire system requires dismantling. The concentration of wealth went too far.

A couple who own a small bakery (& have 7 children) were convicted of “harboring” undocumented ppl & face up to 10 yrs in prison (& potential deportation) for trying to keep ppl safe from ICE.

Meanwhile large corps that exploit migrant labor are left untouched.

A spokesperson for the Freedom Flotilla Coalition tells me:

“Chris Smalls is still in Givon Prison and despite repeated requests to meet with the U.S. Embassy has been ignored by his country after being abducted by the IOF in international waters.”

At least 113 people had officially died of malnutrition by yesterday, including at least 82 children.

There have been reports today that 84 children would have died by now.

Starmer said Israel "does have that right" when asked if it was acceptable for them to cut off all food to Gaza. He is directly complicit.

These pictures will be remembered for centuries.

Future generations will ask:

"Who did what, and when?

Who made this abomination possible?

Who spoke out - and who remained silent?"

Make sure you have good answers.

As I just said on CNN, my father's parents were Nakba survivors. I don't want Israeli children to live in fear and I don't want Palestinian children to starve to death. There is nothing anyone could do to make me put nationalistic talking points above basic human rights.

I know you’re new to Congress, Mr. Fine, but we don’t call our colleagues terrorists here. It just makes you look idiotic. At a time when MN Democrats have been targeted for assassination by a right-wing extremist, your rhetoric is seriously dangerous. Apologize now.

Can someone in immigration law explain to me how this is legal?
When ICE agents look like this, it is ENTIRELY APPROPRIATE for state and local law enforcement to step in and demand they identify themselves and show judicial warrants before detaining anyone from an immigration court.

Democratic mayor and governors can take action on this.
