Jewish Voice for Peace demands the Trump administration release Palestinian student Mahmoud Khalil from ICE detention. The detention of Mahmoud is further proof that we are on the brink of a full takeover by a repressive, authoritarian regime.

First, Trump’s NEC Director says tariff revenue will fund Trump’s tax cuts for the rich. Then, @pierrepoilievremp.bsky.social suggests Canada’s tariff revenue should also go to tax cuts. Who wins? Billionaires. Who loses? You.
Better idea: tax US billionaires to build sovereignty in our economy
