So happy to share this news! @TessaThompson_x

The Israeli government is well able to fund the Iron Dome system, which has proven critical to keep innocent civilians safe from rocket attacks and bombardment. Consistent with my voting record to date, I will not support Congress sending more taxpayer dollars and military aid to a government that consistently ignores international law and U.S. law. Netanyahu’s allies in the Knesset just approved a $45 billion defense budget, and the Prime Minister himself also asserted his interest in withdrawing from the MOU with the United States in January. It is fully within their ability to fund Iron Dome and other defensive systems. Our allies who need our military aid must understand that we will provide it consistent with the Leahy amendment and the foreign assistance act.

If u haven’t seen the film Zone of Interest yet, maybe this will finally convince u to watch it.

this is the best op-ed i've read in years and really the only one we need to read in these times @lpolgreen

I think Zohran's co-opting of efficiency from the right will be seismic for the American socialist project. We need to run a national campaign against The Contractor State—neoliberalism's grand, massively inefficient outsourcing of government functions to private contractors.

that shot from Portrait, to me, is one of the high marks of the medium. i just can’t believe it. claire mathon the god

“They say that Spain is alone. They said the same when we recognized the State of Palestine, and then others followed. We are not alone. We are the first. Those defending the indefensible will be the ones left alone.” (Sánchez, March 9)

"Whatever the hell you need to do" is how to sustain a career as a director, according to Barry Jenkins. "I worked at Banana Republic for three and a half years while I had a deal at Focus Features and an agent at CAA," the Oscar-winning 'Moonlight' director and co-writer told fellow director Anu Valia ('We Strangers').

Javier Bardem revives his 2003 Iraq War protest pin at the 2026 #Oscars to condemn the current war in Iran.

Laura Loomer went to India but deleted all of her anti Indian Tweets, thinking nobody would notice. Well, this Indian uncle cooked her for being a raging bigot.

Two great movies about how a climate of authoritarianism can inspire people to build communities of mutual support but also inflame a spirit of violence in otherwise peaceful people.
