A viral post is spreading fear on all platforms, supposedly from Liz and Me, about a nonexistent bill—just like the far right used to do. We cannot become what we’re fighting. The truth still matters. We win by being better, not louder.

Don’t Fight Lies With Fear—Fight Them With Truth
If we abandon integrity in the name of urgency, we lose ourselves.

4-year-old Bakersfield girl facing deportation could die within days of losing medical care - Los Angeles Times
Don’t ever tell me that Christians support the GOP. There is nothing Christian or Christ-like about this. Just plain old cruelty and callousness:

A lot of Minnesotans struggle to keep up with how fast technology is changing – so we have programs to help teach them. It helps them land good-paying jobs and keep up with the day-to-day tasks that we use technology for.

We acknowledge that many are not comfortable calling out Israel, whether its due to guilt or sycophancy, the point isn’t to attack Israel for their identity but actions & supremacist ideology. Israel is committing war crimes, land theft, and genocide. It doesn’t matter why, only that it stops.

The way the western press have been discussing the Gaza holocaust as some kind of unfortunate tragedy that is just passively happening to the Palestinian people, as though it’s a natural disaster or something. It’s like bombs and siege warfare are just the weather over there.

What we are doing in Gaza is a war of annihilation: indiscriminate, unrestrained, brutal and criminal killing of civilians - a policy knowingly, intentionally, maliciously, and with reckless disregard for human life. Yes, we are committing war crimes.

In Gaza, hospitals have collapsed. Babies ran out of formula. Clean drinking water is gone. Meanwhile, trucks filled with aid are waiting idle by the border. Instead of trying to do a Gaza real estate deal, Trump should press the Netanyahu government to open aid routes & stop starving Palestinians.

Several Palestinians and Israeli soldiers say troops are systematically forcing Palestinians to act as human shields in Gaza, sending them into buildings and tunnels to check for bombs and gunmen.
The dangerous practice has become ubiquitous during 19 months of war, they said.

Scores of staffers at the White House National Security Council have been abruptly dismissed as part of a sweeping overhaul that slashes the staff from over 300 to just 50. The move shifts the NSC’s role from policymaking to simply carrying out the president’s directives.
