Millions of young people across the globe protested against a genocide — an unprecedented mass movement that was organized on social media.

In that time, the US government basically nationalized TikTok and the Australian government has banned teenagers from social media altogether.

NEW: Israeli settlers allegedly beat a young American as she defended one of the last Palestinian families left in their way of stealing more land.

They then attacked a grandma & two kids, threatening to burn them alive if they didn’t leave their land.

She says the US hasn’t responded to her.

FBI OPS DIRECTOR: Antifa - that's our primary concern right now. CONGRESS: Where is Antifa headquartered?

FBI: [Pauses]...We are building out the infrastructure right now.

CONGRESS: What does that mean?

It's actually pretty brilliant. They can make $100M a year doing absolutely nothing, producing no value whatsoever. It's pure evil.

Here's the full-circle scam

Ultra-wealthy PE's and bankers buy politicians who promise not to tax them

Politicians instead borrow from pension funds to pay for public infrastructure

Pension funds go insolvent and get stuck yield-chasing

Pension funds have to invest in funds managed by said PE's
An ASCII art flowchart illustrating a cyclical "loop of greed." At the top, "Ultra Wealthy PE & Bankers" send money down to "Politicians" via an arrow labeled "(Buy/Lobby)." The Politicians then direct policy down to "State Pension Funds" via an arrow labeled "(Divert to Infra to avoid taxing rich)." Finally, the loop closes as the State Pension Funds send money back up to the top, with an arrow labeled "(Invest Billions in PE Funds)" leading to "(Collect Fees & Capital)" returning to the Ultra Wealthy PE & Bankers.

The Trump-Vance admin just deported two families, including three US citizen kids ages 2, 4, and 7.

Both families were detained and then blocked from communicating with attorneys or family members.

One of the moms is pregnant. One of the citizen kids has cancer. Both deported without medical help.
ICE Deports 3 U.S. Citizen Children Held Incommunicado Prior to the Deportation Families disappeared and isolated without legal access; one child with cancer deported without medication and pregnant mother deported as well FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 25, 2025 CONTACT: media@aclu.org New Orleans, LA – Today, in the early hours of the morning, the New Orleans Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Field Office deported at least two families, including two mothers and their minor children – three of whom are U.S. citizen children aged 2, 4, and 7. One of the mothers is currently pregnant. The families, who had lived in the United States for years and had deep ties to their communities, were deported from the U.S. under deeply troubling circumstances that raise serious due process concerns. ICE detained the first family on Tuesday, April 22, and the second family on Thursday, April 24. In both cases, ICE held the families incommunicado, refusing or failing to respond to multiple attempts by attorneys and family members to contact them. In one instance, a mother was granted less than one minute on the phone before the call was abruptly terminated when her spouse tried to provide legal counsel’s phone number. As a result, the families were completely isolated during critical moments when decisions were being made about the welfare of their minor children. This included decisions with serious implications for the health, safety, and legal rights of the children involved – without any opportunity to coordinate with caretakers or consult with legal representatives. These actions stand in direct violation of ICE’s own written and informal directives, which mandate coordination for the care of minor children with willing caretakers – regardless of immigration status – when deportations are being carried out. Both families have possible immigration relief, but because ICE denied them access to their attorneys, legal counsel was unable to assist and advise the…

The framing from legacy media on the Ms Rachel stuff is insane. Nowhere do they say that these are baseless claims, or that what she said (every child's life is precious and worthy) is not "Hamas propaganda." If u didn't know the background to this story and saw this post, you'd believe their smear

According to one of the people briefed on the plans, Israel would order Gaza's 2.2 million Palestinians into a smaller "humanitarian zone" than the area it has currently designated for civilians. The military is examining options for _soldiers to control the distribution of food limited to a minimum caloric amount necessary for survival_, the person said.
