Illustration of Twitter's iconic bird logo bludgeoned to death by the X logo. Copy reads: "As of today, I will no longer be using X.” To anyone running for office — especially my opponents — I encourage you to break from Twitter as well. Stop paying for a checkmark. Stop advertising on X. Stop enriching Elon Musk, directly or indirectly.

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas.

Chamomile #458
#chamomilecomic #comics
(New comic every Sunday)
jezmmart.com/chamomilecomic
Comic from my weekly series, Chamomile. Detailed Description Follows: Layla emerges back behind the till point again from the basement stock room, saying "Alright, I'm back upstairs now Newt." Her phone vibrates in her back pocket several times, and she pulls it out. With a look of concern she says "Huh!? Missed call from Chamomile... Missed call from Chamomile... Missed call from Chamomile..." She begins tapping on her phone, saying "What on earth could be going on? Ah, phew, she left me a text." Layla's phone screen shows the text from Chamomile, which just says, in capital letters, with spelling mistakes, "Layla I'm trying to call you!" Layla says nothing, looking extremely annoyed in a defeated way at what Chamomile considered to pass as expounding on the situation. End of comic.

“My ancestors came here on the Mayflower”

So they were undocumented immigrants who survived with the help of the very indigenous people whose descendants ICE is now harassing because they look brown?

New York Attorney General Letitia James has vowed to protect trans kids in a social media post.

“I know this latest proposal from this administration to cut access to gender affirming care for many youth is frightening.” James said in the video.

This framing is dishonest. It was a bipartisan bill. Enough Republicans actually defected and voted no to kill the bill. Three Democrats crossed over to save it.

They should be stripped of their committee assignments and thrown out of the party, quite frankly.

Today House Republicans voted 216-211 to pass MTG’s bill to criminalize gender-affirming care for minors nationwide, marking the first time a national ban on care for trans youth has reached — and passed — the House floor.

Its absolutely disgusting and I have multiple open complaints with the BBC regarding this issue. They are constantly attempting to dismiss their bigotry as clarifying but it is just disgustingly offensive, frankly.

The BBC has circulated leaked guidance telling journalists to describe trans women as “biological males”.

Clarity should not come at the cost of dignity. #bbc #humanrights #journalism #transparency #transrights

The attack at a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney today was a vile act of antisemitic terror. I mourn those who were murdered and will be keeping their families, the Jewish community, and the Chabad movement in my prayers. May the memories of all those killed be a blessing. While we are still waiting for all the facts to emerge, what we already know is devastating. At least 11 dead, including Rabbi Eli Schlanger, who held deep ties to Crown Heights. At least 29 injured. Another Jewish community plunged into mourning and loss, a holiday of light so painfully reduced to a day of darkness. This attack is merely the latest, most horrifying iteration in a growing pattern of violence targeted at Jewish people across the world. Too many no longer feel safe to be themselves, to express their faith publicly, to worship in their synagogues without armed security stationed outside. What happened at Bondi is what many Jewish people fear will happen in their communities too. On Bondi Beach today, as men with long guns targeted innocents, another man ran towards the gunfire and disarmed a shooter. Tonight, as Jewish New Yorkers light menorahs and usher in a first night of Hanukkah clouded by grief, let us look to his example and confront hatred with the urgency and action it demands. When I am Mayor, I will work every day to keep Jewish New Yorkers safe—on our streets, our subways, at shul, in every moment of every day. Let this be a purpose shared by every New Yorker, and let us banish this horrific violence to the past.
