Seeing these young Black students dive into deep discussions about healthcare, public safety, and the power of hundreds of millions of dollars in public spending gave me hope. This is exactly why I created Civics for the People—for moments like this. Jay, my brother, these kids are something special. Grateful for the opportunity to build with them. Civics for the People is designed to leave you with a sharper understanding of how government shapes your life—and, more importantly, how you can shape the government to reflect the will of the people.

@egavactip I’ll bet more synagogues than mosques. You only need look at the behavior of the crowds in the pro Israel marches compared to the pro Palestinian marches.

This is a response to a story on vandalized synagogues. I'm sorry I must explain that hateful vandalism is not "telling people" anything & attacking a synagogue bc you are angry abt Gaza is no more justifiable than attacking a mosque bc you are angry at the 10/7 terror attacks.

@RubensteinAdam @JJohnsonLaw What's your evidence that these people are combatants -- particularly the kids who get locked up and are subjected to dehumanizing treatment for, at worst, throwing rocks at IDF soldiers?

@DTNowakowski @lauferlaw @jeremycorbyn You’re also de facto lumping in innocent civilians with Hamas — most of whom have no love for them (there hasn’t been an election in 17 years) — and using that to justify their deaths as collateral damage. That’s truly sick.

@DTNowakowski @lauferlaw @jeremycorbyn And that’s in violation of international law. More important, it’s the most savage, cruel kind of brutality, and on a level with the horrors perpetrated by Hamas. I wonder how many hostages have been killed in the process.

Jeremy Corbyn
Jeremy Corbyn@jeremycorbyn·
Tomorrow, MPs will be voting on the call for a ceasefire in Gaza. It is a simple moral choice: do you support the indiscriminate killing of human beings, or do you want to stop the further loss of life? In the aftermath of horror, we need voices for peace and diplomacy. Instead, our government has given the green light to unconscionable death and destruction. I condemn the targeting of all civilian life. That includes the deplorable acts of terror by Hamas against Israeli civilians. And that includes acts of terror by the Israeli government against Palestinian civilians. More than 11,000 people in Gaza have been killed, almost half of whom are children. Without a peaceful and political solution, this cycle of violence will go on and on, and it is the responsibility of members of Parliament to demand an end to the ongoing loss of life. We cannot become distracted from our overriding goal: to bring about freedom, justice and peace for all Palestinians and Israelis. With every passing minute that the bombing continues, another human being is killed. This must end, now. I will vote for a ceasefire tomorrow, and I will continue to demand the release of hostages, an end to the siege of Gaza, and an end to the occupation of Palestine. I urge colleagues to do the same.

@lauferlaw @jeremycorbyn The disgraced ex-leader & loser choses words carefully: Hamas is committing "acts of terror", so yes, it is a #terrorist organisation. But, Israel is too, according to him. So they too are accused (falsely) of #terrorism, and it is implied they are killing indiscriminately.

@lauferlaw @jeremycorbyn STOP IT. Calling for a ceasefire doesn’t imply that Corbyn condones what Hamas did or doesn’t believe it’s a terrorist organization. And you know as well as the rest of us that Likud is complicit in creating an environment in which Hamas could commit acts of terror. So JUST STOP.

@collectdust YES. This issue has gotten way too little notice/traction. I’m surprised this isn’t the thing that took him down.

@SusanMorais @BottomStructure @rafaelshimunov I see -- so all Palestinian civilians = Hamas. I guess that means all Israelis = Likud. Of course there's propaganda coming from both sides. A little bit of discernment here would make a huge difference.

On the people tearing down US posters of missing Israelis. Today I saw them plastered all in front of a Palestinian restaurant. None of the posters include Palestinians. Nor a ceasefire. Maybe a motivation for taking them down is because they’re seen as fomenting killing more innocents.

@SusanMorais @rafaelshimunov @SassiItalyTours You don't think there's any connection between what Rafael is saying and the posters? Why do you think they'd put posters up in front of Muslim/Arab/Palestinian-owned businesses/places of worship?

Who is Landry? He is an ultra-conservative AG, who joined the lawsuits to overturn the 2020 presidential results, and has targeted the state's cities. And he ran a campaign was a dog whistle is an understatement. @PiperSFrench profiled him: boltsmag.org/jeff-landry-go…

NEW: Republican Jeff Landry will be the next governor of Louisiana, the AP has now called. He cleared 50%, & will replace the term-limited Dem governor. This means the GOP gained full control of Louisiana's state government, since they also defended the state House & Senate.

@RichardHanania 1) Motel, not hotel. Vastly different price point. 2) You haven’t done any due diligence. Ever heard of the working poor. The cost of housing outstrips their earning power; they lose their homes. But they’re still working and can afford a motel. 3) Your vibes aren’t facts.

Funny how no TV show accurately portrays the American poor I just saw one where a thin nuclear family, not on drugs, checked into a motel. No one in the US who meets those basic criteria can’t afford a hotel! But we want stories of an imaginary “poor”, not to see fat people.

Not 1 single post from Barack Hussein Obama about the historic terrorist attack in Israel 1,000+ dead including at least 9 Americans & he’s silent He sent over $200+ million to Palestine in his last few hours in office It’s clear who he supports & it isn’t Israel #StopHamas

I don't have the time of course. But if someone wanted to offer enough money and we could do the experiment I would do it just to prove Shakespeare is fake. We'd just have to find people who don't know Shakespeare, and blindly give them Shakespeare's Hamlet or Hanania version.

Pretty sure if you gave me a year I could write Shakespeare quality work. Like if someone hadn't read all of Shakespeare and you randomly gave them me or him, on average they couldn't tell the difference. Of course without the blind test people would pretend it wasn't as good.
