🚨Over a dozen senior Tories have written to Keir Starmer calling for the recognition of a Palestinian state.

“By failing to recognise Palestine, we send the dangerous message that Palestinian statehood is conditional, while Israeli territorial expansion continues unchecked".

A gas field offshore Gaza with more than a trillion cubic feet in reserves a revenue stream for the Palestinian.
There is a suggestion that this gas is the reason for the war between Israel and Hamas, with the Israeli government eyeing control of the Gaza Marine field.

How is this even possible 😂
New via NYT — The CIA sent the White House an unclassified email listing all employees hired by the spy agency over the last two years to comply with an executive order to shrink the federal work force. One former agency officer called the reporting of names a “counterintelligence disaster.”

They used AN EXCAVATOR to remove his backpack "and surrounding Earth" from Central Park, and are giving it all the forensic treatment of a body. Meanwhile there's still a rape kit backlog in NYC, and Congress is still raising funds to get those kits progressed. As a rape survivor, its infuriating.

Police don't do what you think they do.🤷🏿‍♂️

Most of what police do, by time, by arrests, by budget, is stop, search, ticket, and arrest people. The people they do this to, are overwhelmingly Black.

By default, more police in a neighborhood, means more policing in a neighborhood.

This is policing.
Police are not primarily crime fighters, according to the data
A new report adds to a growing line of research showing that police departments don’t solve serious or violent crimes with any regularity, and in fact, spend very little time on crime control, in contrast to popular narratives.

Something that has been shown to consistently and effectively reduce the murder rate in a city, is reducing police brutality, over-policing, and abuses like asset forfeiture.

This has worked in LA. East Palo Alto. Pomona. New Orleans. Etc.

Now ask yourself why we don't do this everywhere.

World Central Kitchen volunteers have been hit again, by an #Israel’i airstrike in #Gaza today. One of the only orgs successfully getting food to thousands of starving Palestinians is now pausing ops while they investigate what happened & figure out how to protect their staff under these conditions.

wow, that Vanity Fair piece on a 47-year-old Cormac McCarthy grooming a traumatized 16-year-old girl for sex is *real bad.*. And I mean, both in what it describes and in how it tries to turn the whole thing into some great romantic love affair
