Tomorrow, Burgum will convene the so-called “God Squad” at the Interior Department to consider granting Big Oil an exemption from the Endangered Species Act. If granted, the exemption could be the nail in the coffin for species like sea turtles, sharks, and the Rice’s whale.

Israel's conviction rate of Palestinians (in military courts) is 99.74% Israel's conviction rate of reported settler attacks on Palestinians is 1.8% Israel's death sentence will only apply against Palestinians not Israeli Jews It's not complicated. It's Apartheid!

That's it. That's the best picture from Saturday's No Kings protests in the USA. The literal Statue of Liberty being detained by police. It doesn't get much more poetic than this.

We have a Congress that is unable or unwilling to stop a war that no one wants. We need change.

United Nations expert Francesca Albanese’s latest report warns that Israel is systematically torturing Palestinians on a scale that “suggests collective vengeance and destructive intent” and that “torture has effectively become state policy” since October 2023. democracynow.org/2026/3/26/alba…

What other country in the world, besides Israel, has a death penalty law for only one ethnic group? Legalized racial execution.

BREAKING: Spain just blocked US war planes targeting Iran from flying over its territory. Airspace closed. Military bases denied. No participation. The entire country is now off-limits. Spain is refusing to be complicit. All other European/NATO countries need to follow suit.

🇨🇺 🇷🇺 Russia has delivered 730,000 barrels of oil to Cuba. This is the first time any oil has reached Cuba in three months, since the US imposed an all-out oil blockade. The U.S. blockade can and must be broken.

🚨🇺🇸HOLY SMOKES: AOC on the House floor today: “Companies like Palantir are mining the data and privacy of the American people — keeping track of everything they say and do — and sending it to a militarized government.” Palantir was founded with CIA seed funding. It now holds contracts with ICE, the Pentagon, the NSA, and dozens of federal agencies. Its software is used to track immigrants, analyze social media, predict crime, and identify targets. The same government that: — Deployed ICE to airports — Threatened Americans with consequences for their speech — Used Signal to auto-delete official records — Is reading Tucker Carlson’s texts — Sealed the Epstein files — Hid wounded soldiers from their families Has a private company tracking everything you say and do. And sending it to them. 8 million Americans marched yesterday. Palantir knows who was there.

In time it will not be called the Israel-Gaza war Nor will people refer to Israel’s right to defend itself It will be recorded in history and remembered as The Palestinian Genocide It will be seen as another period when the world allowed evil to dominate humanity

Huge No Kings crowd in the Twin Cities. Minnesota has not forgotten what Trump did to them. They’ve not forgotten Renee Good and Alex Pretti. They’ve not forgotten the regime cutting off social supports and Medicaid funding. We won’t forget either.

🚨 Official count confirmed: More than 8 million people participated in No Kings Day today. One of the largest single-day demonstrations in American history. 3,000 cities. Every state. Every coast. Philadelphia. Atlanta. Dallas. St. Paul. DC. San Francisco. San Diego. New York. London. Tel Aviv. Scotland. And counting. To put 8 million in context: The Women’s March in 2017 — the previous record — drew an estimated 3-5 million. Today more than doubled it. 8 million Americans didn’t just protest today. They sent a message that cannot be ignored, cannot be dismissed, and cannot be spun. The founders settled the kings question in 1776. 8 million Americans settled it again today.

Scotland. Philadelphia. Atlanta. Dallas. St. Paul. DC. San Francisco. London. Tel Aviv. Now Scotland. This war. These files. This administration. The world keeps adding cities. No Kings is not a protest anymore. It’s a movement with a passport.

San Diego just raised the bar. Philadelphia. Atlanta. Dallas. St. Paul. DC. San Francisco. London. Tel Aviv. Scotland. Now San Diego. 7 million Americans. Counting. Every coast. Every state. Every timezone. Across the Atlantic. Across the Pacific. No Kings doesn’t need a permit to go global.

Bernie Sanders: “I will be forcing a vote in the Senate on legislation to block the sale of nearly $1B in weapons to the Israeli military for bombs and bulldozers. A government that has committed genocide in Gaza does not need more military support from American taxpayers”

They’ve been fighting for many decades, Jane Fonda and Joan Baez.

Crowds as far as the eye can see for Bernie Sanders in Minnesota.

Zack Polanski's speech at the Together Alliance march "Looking at this crowd I see unity, I see solidarity, I see love. I see we are together" "Look around. Look at the people around you. We are intergenerational. We are white, we are black, we are Asian, we are Muslim, Christian, Jewish, non-faiths. We are community" "And together, we will win" "The tide is turning is turning. There have been dark times. I know people have been scared and have been afraid" "But days like this are here to send a message" "A message to Tommy Robinson. To Nigel Farage. To those appease who appease them" "When we turn up in our hundreds and our thousands, in our hundreds of thousands, we are unstoppable" "We see what's happening in the United States. Children snatched in the streets. People shot in cold blood. We see the war mongering. And the far right see that as their blueprint" "But people in this country have seen Reform UK for who they really are" "They would have dragged us into this illegal and unpopular war with Iran" "And we say today, this is not in our name, this is not our war" "And looking out today I see so many flags and so many slogans" "I know we are here for our migrant communities, for our trans communities, for the Palestinians, our struggles are interconnected, and we stand in solidarity" "There's three things we have to do" "First. We must not give an inch to the Daily Mail, to the rightwing hacks, to the people that spread hate and division. We will defeat you" "Second. We say to Reform UK, we know exactly who you are. You are climate denying, Trump-loving, NHS dismantling, corporate stooges" "Finally. We have to tackle the cost of living. It is time to lower people's bills. It is time to tax billionaires. Nationalise the water companies. Rent controls. Make sure we have the energy cap, so people aren't chosing between heating and eating" "More than anything, today is a march and it does not stop here. This is just the beginning" "Local elections are coming in just a few weeks time. We will defeat hate" "It's time to make hope normal again" *Audience erupts in cheer*
