Israel has held 16-year-old American, Mohammed Ibrahim, without trial, for 9 months.

He has been denied contact with family & his health is deteriorating. He says he falsely confessed to throwing a rock after being beaten.

America needs to secure his release NOW.

I find it incredible how the idea of our planet being hospitable to human civilization could be in anyway considered "optional"

I was homeless once, for just one winter in the United States. And I've had to beg my bread many times. And am at risk of homelessness again, with just one stroke of my political leaders' pens. As are most of us the world over. I wish everyone would realize and internalize that. #Chinnammal

I’d crashed my car into a homeless woman. She spent her final moments showing me kindness.

Italy's largest union, with over 5.5 million workers, has called a general strike for Friday in solidarity with the Global Sumud Flotilla.

And smaller Italian unions have said they will join CGIL's general strike.

Five days ago, an ICE agent shoved a woman asking questions about the detention of her husband.

Today they attacked two journalists.

We cannot accept or normalize what has now become routine violence at 26 Federal Plaza. It has no place in our city.

Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures.

Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims.

Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.

Why are cops warning people about keeping a better eye on mischievous kids and not warning people that grown ass adults will shoot a fleeing CHILD for merely annoying them? Make it make fucking sense #OnlyInAmerica
What fucking society do we live in that we're blaming the shooting death of an 11y.o kid on said kid because he was playing Ding Dong Ditch, a completely harmless prank that only mildly inconveniences people? Apparently mildly inconveniencing an adult is a capital offense in our gun culture #Houston

Families in Gaza are starving to death. Meanwhile, Trump & Netanyahu are using US taxpayer dollars to replace international aid orgs in Gaza with mercenaries — leading to even more deaths.

ENOUGH.

I led 20 Senators in calling on Trump to stop supporting this barbarity:
Senate Democrats urge U.S. to stop funding GHF, resume support for U.N. food distribution in Gaza as more starve
Senate Democrats told the secretary of state they have "grave concerns" about the U.S. role in financing GHF, the main group distributing aid in Gaza.

Benjamin Netanyahu is a war criminal — and we as a nation are directly implicated in the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

In response, the United States must stop all military assistance to Israel.

There's no moral clarity in wreaking vengeance on innocent people.
