Honored to have contributed this important story to @sojourners July 2024 issue! “There is a heaviness that hangs in women’s prison that you don’t feel anywhere else, and it is because of this separation of these women and the children.” sojo.net/magazine/july-… @PrisonPolicy

@AntiTrumpCanada He is an embarrassment, to say the least

What a fucking embarrassment. American troops are being sent into harm’s way in Iran and this fucking idiot is doing his double jerkoff dance while waving a sword, like a drunk uncle at a wedding. This is who has the nuclear codes. America is a parody.

@patriot_melissa @ABC Pls, try to understand how vaccine research actually works!

@ABC I thought they created the vaccine after the virus now you’re saying you’ve had the vaccine for years, which is it?

Infectious disease experts told @ABC News that mRNA and mRNA vaccines have been studied for decades, the vaccines are safe and effective, and that the shots were instrumental in saving lives during the COVID-19 pandemic. abcnews.link/zWPCVvq

Kamala Harris: So look, some people are describing what's been happening in recent months as absolute chaos. And of course I understand why. And it's certainly true of those tariffs. Tariffs that, as I predicted, are clearly inviting a recession.

@TunedupToast @ABC @HarvardHBS Get a life dude and maybe some education

@ABC You guys have 53 billion in the bank what the fuck do you need public money for @HarvardHBS

BREAKING: Harvard University is suing Pres. Trump's administration for threatening to withhold federal funding if the school did not comply with its list of demands. abcnews.link/EC0o2On

@fastlane1944 @RepMcGovern You are very misguided

The fact I’m a CITIZEN who hasn’t committed a crime dumbass. He was an ILLEGAL ALIEN, a member of the foreign TERRORIST ORGANIZATION, MS-13! His basis for attempting to claim asylum was HIS GANG would kill him if returned to El Salvador. That basis evaporated when that country ELIMINATED THAT HEINOUS, TORTURING , MURDERING , RAPING MONSTERS GANG completely from that country. ICE DETAINER and DEPORTATION ORDERS WERE IN EFFECT. He EVADED ICE FOR DIX YEARS!! Swept up in an ICE RAID he was deported. If he were returned those orders REMAIN IN EFFECT and he would be detained and deported again. If President Bukele agreed to return him and he announced in a White House press conference he would not, in a 9-0 SCOTUS ruling we would have to facilitate it. But, once again, IF RETURNED THOSE DETAINER and DEPORTATION order remain IN EFFECT. You Libdiots are so in disarray as a broken and failed Party, you are desperate for a rally point you have to manufacture one, but then that’s what you reprehensible and disingenuous Libdiots do - manufacture CRISIS, hair is on fire, pear clutching, phony outrage and fake virtue signaling BULLSHIT to try to wind people up and weaponizing them into a frenzy suggesting they have a moral obligation to terrorize and vandalize and violently attack anyone they don’t agree with. YOU, sir, have BLOOD 🩸 ON YOUR HANDS! You care nothing for victims or surviving families, and OMG you fight for CRIMINALS, RAPISTS, MURDERS, terrorist organizations over OUR CITIZENS. You should RESIGN, and hang your head in SHAME!!

Ask yourself—what’s going to stop the government from deporting you to a prison in El Salvador? How would you prove it’s an error if you don’t have due process? If it can happen to anyone, it can happen to you. The people get it. Either everyone has due process—or nobody does.

@Christos_Vet @krassenstein Yeah, we are all paid 😂😂 get a life!

@krassenstein I wonder how many were unemployed. How many were paid? What percentage were bussed in?

BREAKING: Massive protest in New York City just now. I don’t remember a single protest this large against Joe Biden. We now have had protests like this for weeks all across the nation. People see Trump as a danger to our democracy.

Stop killing journalists

No words…💔💔💔

This is Hossam’s team, and we are sharing his final message : “If you’re reading this, it means I have been killed—most likely targeted—by the Israeli occupation forces. When this all began, I was only 21 years old—a college student with dreams like anyone else. For past 18 months, I have dedicated every moment of my life to my people. I documented the horrors in northern Gaza minute by minute, determined to show the world the truth they tried to bury. I slept on pavements, in schools, in tents—anywhere I could. Each day was a battle for survival. I endured hunger for months, yet I never left my people’s side. By God, I fulfilled my duty as a journalist. I risked everything to report the truth, and now, I am finally at rest—something I haven’t known in the past 18 months . I did all this because I believe in the Palestinian cause. I believe this land is ours, and it has been the highest honor of my life to die defending it and serving its people. I ask you now: do not stop speaking about Gaza. Do not let the world look away. Keep fighting, keep telling our stories—until Palestine is free.” — For the last time, Hossam Shabat, from northern Gaza.

Pete Hegseth removed Colin Powell’s name from a list of notable Americans, buried at Arlington National Cemetery. Hegseth also removed the names of every person of color and every woman on the same list. Only white men were left in place.

I am in Cairo, where I have been visiting with health organizations, including WHO and other partners of USAID. Trump/Musk say lifesaving assistance is not affected by the shutdown of USAID and support to WHO. I can tell you that is 100% false. instagram.com/share/_ogGRd7UY

Musk's claim that just 10% of US aid reaches recipients is absurd. @cgdev lays out the facts: - US gov costs are just 10% - Rest reaches recipients mostly thru US corps/nonprofits + multilateral agencies - ~10% goes thru foreign organizations cgdev.org/blog/no-90-per…

Trump and Musk are recklessly and illegally dismantling USAID, an essential national security agency that saves lives, advances U.S. interests, and promotes peace. Their malicious actions are putting the health of people, especially children, at grave risk, and will surely lead to future public health and migration crises in the U.S. – let alone suffering around the globe.

Confirmed: DOGE operatives attempted to gain access to secure spaces, sources tell me and @lbarronlopez . This as a group of Democratic senators is raising alarm and asking for precise information on what happened. foreign.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…

We will always stand up for Canada.

@elonmusk You have NO idea of what USAID actually does and the positive impact it has on millions of people around the world. This will backfire on all of us Americans. Shame on you!!!!

USAID is a criminal organization. Time for it to die.

Don’t be fooled by smooth talking. Go beyond rhetoric and focus on substance. 💃🏽😄

Wow, congrats to this year’s @macfound fellows!!! Amazing changemakers. 💃🏽

Honored is an understatement. Congrats to all the 2024 MacArthur Fellows!

Choose peace.
