@Graelwyn @JimmyJ4thewin I can't imagine how you must feel about that. I've seen holocaust survivors speak out about the carnage in Gaza...and those very survivors called self-hating Jews for daring to say so. It's unconscionable.

@JimmyJ4thewin The horrific fact is that a few holocaust survivors have spoken out against what is happening in Gaza and were silenced. Ps. I am Jewish and my mother's mother came on the kindertransport to England and gave my mother up for adoption.

British actress Kate Beckinsale was dropped by her agent after liking a post calling for a ceasefire in Gaza. “I liked a post about a ceasefire… and was fired the same day as Susan Sarandon.”

@brevolve @saniyafatma1278 @badbrainAJ Thanks for this.

@saniyafatma1278 @badbrainAJ I hate to burst everyone’s bubble but this account is fake. Just scroll through her timeline- it gets obvious after like ten seconds of scrolling.

My mother spent eight months making this quilt. Eight months of hand-stitching every flower, every animal, every single detail while my father was in memory care and she sat alone in their house trying to keep her hands busy enough that her mind couldn't spiral. She posted it on Facebook last week with the caption "My first quilt. What do you think?" and not one of her seventy-three friends commented. Not one. I found her crying in her sewing room the next day, said she was "just being silly" but I knew what she meant. She's seventy-four years old and suddenly invisible. Her husband doesn't recognize her anymore. Her friends have moved to Florida or stopped calling. She pours everything she has left into fabric and thread and nobody even clicks like. So I posted it in a quilting group on Tedooo app without telling her, just to see if I was crazy for thinking it was extraordinary. Within two hours she had three hundred comments. People asking about her techniques, her pattern sources, begging to buy her work. A quilt shop owner offered her a commission. A woman in Texas said she cried looking at the detail in those tiny flower petals. I showed Mom the messages and she couldn't even speak, just kept reading them over and over. She joined Tedooo app that night and posted more of her work. She's sold four quilts in three weeks through her new shop there and has a six-month waitlist. Yesterday she called me from the fabric store, actually laughing, saying someone recognized her from the app. My mother exists again. Her work deserves to be seen and appreciated, and I'm so grateful there's finally a place where it is.

@Jes_J_Bel @IhabHassane How? With what?

@IhabHassane Well at some point, those West Bank Palestinians have to defend themselves.

Unbelievable, insane night in the West Bank. Hundreds of Israeli settlers are rampaging across more than 15 villages and towns right now, torching homes, cars, and fields, and attempting to burn people alive. The Israeli army is showing complete failure and total indifference.

@alon_mizrahi Such a beautiful human being! A great man, true humanitarian, and brilliant actor.

I have to say that in 2.5 years of horror and endless American plastic and emotional absence, this may very well be the first time I hear an America voice that not only tells the truth, but does so with a level of authenticity, heart, and true sadness, that kind you immediately feel in your guts as the humanity that we so desperately crave. I love Edward Norton for being this voice. I would give him a big hug

@CollinCusce @realpeteyb123 @DGwin12 You don't have to be part of either major party. Be Independent, Uncommitted, or just vote your conscience. If you vote at all. I struggled with this, though from the opposite side. Took a bit, but it's so freeing. I honestly wish you the best.

@realpeteyb123 @DGwin12 I'm not going to join the Democrats but I'm not pleased with what's going on with the Republicans. Neither party seems to represent me at all. And I don't know how to deal with it.

Think the time has come for me to walk away from MAGA and the Republican Party. I’ll share more soon. I’m done.

@OurielOhayon @MattH_4America Less than a month ago?

I now hate Israel. Good job, guys! Five years ago, I didn't care, now I do. Keep going!

@brianhugstrees Absolutely, I miss you! You're right about the Twitter. I'm not on here too much, but glad I saw your post. I hope you're doing well, Brian.

It’s been about a year, is this place still a cesspool of right wing propaganda & porn? Anybody miss me? I missed a lot of you.

@grinnell555 @ryangrim @franifio The district wasn't killed/eliminated. But the boundaries were redrawn. I gave one answer, but I suppose it called for two. It's still TX-30 and the one where Dr Haynes won the primary.

@grinnell555 @ryangrim @franifio No. She entered the Senate race on the last day it could be done. Collin Allred was initially running against Talarico but dropped out when Crockett announced. He's running for US Rep now. She could have remained in her Rep. District if she wished.

Jasmine Crockett’s replacement in the House

@EarlEvansIII @OccupyDemocrats fox4news.com/news/dallas-so…

@OccupyDemocrats Fake news. As of now, there are no verified reports from any mainstream or regional news outlet confirming this specific story about “Ramona Rakestraw.” That includes: No Associated Press wire No Reuters No New York Times No Washington Post No NBC / CBS / ABC

BREAKING: Trump administration strips Social Security benefits from a Black American cancer patient by claiming that she is “not lawfully present in the U.S.” This is what Trump’s intentional cruelty looks like in 2026. Ramona Rakestraw, 59, was born at Parkland Hospital in Dallas in 1966. She has never left Dallas County — not for vacation, not for work, not for anything. And yet somehow, the federal government has decided she is “not lawfully present in the U.S.” Her crime? Existing while sick. Rakestraw has battled kidney disease for decades. She endured a transplant. She returned to dialysis. In 2024, she was diagnosed with cancer. Through it all, she survived on Supplemental Security Income — her only source of income — and Medicare Part B. Then in October, the payments stopped. Why? Because her “immigration status” was suddenly under review. “I’m not an immigrant,” she said. “I’ve never even left Dallas County — let alone the country.” Let that sink in. A lifelong Texan. Born in an American hospital. Fighting cancer. Forced to march down to a Social Security office with her birth certificate in hand to prove she belongs in the country where she was born. And still, she received a letter stating: “We cannot pay you benefits because you are not lawfully present in the U.S.” This is the human cost of a system so obsessed with rooting out “illegals” that it can’t tell the difference between a Dallas native and a border crossing. Her Medicare was eventually restored. Her SSI — her only income — was not. Now she’s appealing, drowning in paperwork while undergoing dialysis and cancer treatment. Sixty days to fight a bureaucratic accusation that should never have happened. This isn’t about paperwork errors. It’s about a government climate that treats citizenship as suspect and vulnerable Americans as disposable. Ramona Rakestraw isn’t asking for special treatment. She’s asking for the benefits she’s legally entitled to — the benefits she paid into with a lifetime of perfectly legal existence in this country. Born in Dallas. Fighting for her life. And now forced to fight her own government just to survive. That’s not just incompetence. That’s a system that’s lost its humanity. Please like and share this sad story!

@konstantin20519 @SizweLo She converted to Islam but was never a jihadi.

@SizweLo Εντελως καμενη, κατεληξε Ισλαμιστρια να κηρυττει τζιχαντ.

In 1992, Sinead O’Connor performed an a cappella version of Bob Marley’s song “War” and ended it by tearing up a photograph of Pope John Paul II to protest against child abuse in the Catholic Church while telling the audience to “fight the real enemy.” Americans cancelled her.

@Wolf359V2 @SizweLo She was never protestant. She was born and raised Catholic and remained so until her conversion to Islam.

@SizweLo She was a protestant Irish and they have been fighting against catholics for centuries. Who said it was against child abuse?

@LADYBUNNY77 Always thinking of others! You're a generous soul.

If anyone has a way of reaching him, I really feel for the way Bad Bunny is being used as a political football. Therefore, as a thank you, I’m prepared to mercy-fuck him as a repayment for being so outspoken. I know, it’s quite a sacrifice, but that’s how I am! So please let him know, and jealous bitches back off!

@RizeDee @MaceAhWindu You have no idea how many people did just that over the past several years. "We don't need you." "We'll win without you." "You don't belong in our party." So...yeah, people left the party. And will never look back. Mission accomplished.

@MaceAhWindu No. But you ARE invited to leave the democratic party and never look back.

Gavin Newsom did a photo op of removing homeless encampments and im supposed to support him lol

@TXBA_Tammy @IhabHassane Interesting that Menachem Begin, Rabin, Ehud Barak, Ariel Sharon, Naftali Bennett, and Netanyahu all referred to a place that doesn't exist and never has.

@4MatthewCrawley @IhabHassane Doesn't exist, never has

BREAKING: The Israeli army is currently invading the Church of the Nativity and Manger Square in Bethlehem, in the occupied West Bank.

@TXBA_Tammy @IhabHassane Occupied West Bank, Palestine.

@IhabHassane The Church of the Nativity is in Judea

@RedneckScholr @MaxBlumenthal Jim Guy Tucker was Gov. of Arkansas in 1993. Is that who you were talking about? Bill Clinton was President.

@MaxBlumenthal Oh that’s when they was flying the cocaine into Mena Arkansas. Who was the governor of Arkansas at that time?

Here's the 1993 60 Minutes report on how the CIA recruited a Venezuelan military officer, General Ramón Guillén Davila, to help them ship 22 tons of cocaine into American cities The Cartel of the Suns disappeared once it lost its utility to the CIA, and was resurrected by the US government when it began targeting Venezuela

@OrangeFreddyG I plan to get back in the habit of audiobooks. Even short commutes or running errands add up quickly. Do you use a service like Audible? Public libraries, esp in larger cities, are a great resource, too.

Damn, I read 514 audiobooks in 2025. And I really enjoyed doing it.

@PatTheSocialist Right there with you, Pat. It was a hell of a rough year. May 2026 be infinitely better for you - and all who struggled to get here.

Honestly, 2025 almost broke me. May we all use our power in the New Year and revive our spirits. Peace and love to the worthy. Hell and fury to the worst of us.

@sammyrhodes And ye shall know them by the absence of digits.
