The Atlantic & Vanity Fair only ever assign RFK Jr profiles to people who want to fuck him because nobody else can stomach the idea of lying to help him. He's an elderly nepobaby on a mission to kill as many children as possible before he dies, to leave the world more plague-ridden than he found it.

I think often about how we fought in Afghanistan for 20 years and most Americans don’t have the foggiest idea that a defining part of the challenge for those who served was a culture that enables the widespread systemic rape of young boys.
My infantry Bn had a really hard time parsing the gender and sexuality issues of Southern Helmand.

When people say, "you wouldn't want a 'purple haired gender studies major' in the Marines" I reply "YES we desperately needed them!" We had teams of anthropologists who published studies for us.

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Yeah exactly, should have been clearer and not to say it does not happen at all, but in the US you are actually constitutionally entitled to a trial, in Israel the army kidnaps you according to martial law and holds you for eternity and it is the norm.
Besides Guantanamo prisoners I can think of Kalief Browder at Riker's for 3 years before he hanged himself. Notably, in America, these are considered atrocities committed by the government—except by exactly the sort of fascist freaks who support Israel's program of genocidal occupation and apartheid

We're seeing some confusion about this, so let's talk about it.

Home Depot has been complicit as ICE snatches day laborers out of parking lots. At minimum Home Depot is turning a blind eye, and there have also been rumors they may be more actively complicit. Organizers including #weaintbuyingit 🧵

"Tuesday’s pagan feast was ultimately a celebration of denial — denial that their guest of honor was a murderer.... And denial that their 21st century gilded age is about to crash down on them faster than the rubble of the East Wing outside their window."
A depraved and decadent Trump WH dinner for MBS was a stunning low for an American ruling class that's stopped pretending to carry a moral compass

It was really a celebration of death - of democracy, of an overheating planet, and ultimately themselves. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ceos...

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

We must acknowledge that this person whining about how hard it is to make arguments for Israel "through a wall of dead children"—w no regard for the dead children—is not just one of the most ghoulish wordsmiths on the national stage, but that she literally chose the words Overseer Obama spoke
Former Obama speechwriter Sarah Hurwitz says Jewish students shouldn’t have smartphones until they finish high school — so they don’t see the “carnage” Israel and the U.S. have carried out in Gaza.
