If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Absolutely sick over this 😢💔 still targeting journalists amidst the ceasefire. Why are Western media not reporting this?? Too busy whitewashing a genocide.
I didn’t want to believe it was true. Say his name: Saleh Al-Jafarawi. He had the most beautiful smile. He was not among the 270+ journalists killed prior to the latest ceasefire. He was ebullient that the bombing stopped. And now he’s been killed.

Will Elon Musk's mission to remove waste from US government spending include space rockets and the amount it gives to private companies for them?
Or will that somehow be miraculously ring-fenced?

Today is a hard day. It is Trans Day of Remembrance.
About a year ago the trial of Brianna Ghey's killers began. Covering that trial broke me...
I am thinking not just of Brianna today, but the trans girls she tried to help, and the trans youth we have lost.
We have to fight harder than ever.

We will not forget the sheer barbarism that Israel has inflicted on the Palestinians and our Western leaders failure to do fuck all about it.
“Don’t bother. We’re waiting to die.”
The world has failed the Palestinian people.
Keir Starmer and David Lammy included.
