Mahmoud should be home in NYC with his wife and newborn son.

Instead he’s in a prison cell a thousand miles away.

Not because he has been accused of any crime—but only because he expressed political views that the Trump administration disfavors.
Mahmoud Khalil’s wife, Dr. Noor Abdalla, gave birth to their first child today, a baby boy.

In a statement, she said, “My son and I should not be navigating his first days on earth without Mahmoud. ICE and the Trump administration have stolen these precious moments from our family…”

An American doctor in Gaza described waking up to the sound of bombs last night. "All I could think was: we’re going to go back to this, and the world is going to continue to not care. I don’t know why more people aren’t burning shit down over this, I really don’t.”
Israel is bombing Gaza again. Here's what doctors are seeing on the ground.
"I think ceasefire is a very loose term,” said one physician in Gaza. “I wouldn’t say we entered Gaza at a time of peace and quiet.”

NYC: Take notes on which four candidates to rank behind @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, and ensure it's not Cuomo (or Adams). To maximize your ballot's impact, you must fill out all five slots to be counted in every round.

A blank slot allows for a Cuomo vote to fill the gap in later rounds.

I would like to emphasize that the governor of the state of NY, a democrat, intervened in college activities, something she has no business in, for political reasons. This is authoritarianism. Period. And the coverage is not nearly as forceful as that reality requires.

It’s official: Eric Adams’ shameless campaign to avoid legal accountability for corruption has succeeded.

In the midst of a right-wing billionaire assault on the working class of our city, he sold us out for another personal favor.

Election Day can’t come soon enough.
