This takes courage… The Strokes closed their Coachella set flashing images of the governments the CIA has overthrown, the leaders the US has assassinated including MLK 👀, the war crimes the US is committing in Iran, and the genocide Israel is committing in occupied Palestine.

NEW: The families of more than 100 school children killed in the U.S. bombing of an Iranian school have written a letter of gratitude to Pope Leo XIV. In it, they thank him for being a champion of peace and a voice for their deceased children. The White House has yet to apologize for the incident.

@thedianhanson @kingsolo4reall @atrupar He is based in Africa and has no idea what The Atlantic is. Just paid to post.

@kingsolo4reall @atrupar The Atlantic has seen a surge in digital and print subscriptions since 2024.

BARTIROMO: So you're gonna sue them? KASH PATEL: Absolutely. It's coming tomorrow BARTIROMO: Tomorrow you will be dropping a lawsuit against The Atlantic? PATEL: Yes I will. For defamation

Ossoff: How much do you guys know about Jared Kushner—Ivanka’s husband? He’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 billion. And now he’s leading American diplomacy in the Middle East, apparently, while at the very same time asking princes and sheikhs to give him billions more. Can you imagine a normal sitting U.S. ambassador just hitting MBS for billions? But he’s a Trump, a royal, a princeling. The rules are for us, not for them. And it’s not just Jared. Never before have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia has taken American corruption to spectacular new heights.

Pete Hegseth did not quote Pulp Fiction. Don’t fall for fake news.

President Trump has done it again! The Strait of Iran (Hormuz) is fully open!

@oldstockfonzie @realstewpeters Ok, Fonzie the bot.

@realstewpeters Hannity proving to be a patriot. 🫡 The Catholic Church, with their billion dollar refugee and migrant NGO industrial complex, have ruined the west by flooding it Arabs and the third world. Trump needs to end all federal taxes to Catholic charities funding our invasion!

HANNITY: “Where are the pointed words from the Pope against Iran? Trump is correct and the Pope is wrong…on so many levels. As of today, I no longer consider myself a Catholic.” Hannity leaves the Catholic Church to worship Donald Trump.

This is outrageous. Just after Trump announced his sham ceasefire, Israel bombed an ambulance workers funeral in South Lebanon. Channel 4 News was there and captured everything. Israel does NOT want peace. It wants to keep committing genocide and stealing other people’s land.

The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room. The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction. The Health guy collects raccoon dicks. It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.

Faith does not separate the spiritual from the social. It gives Christians the strength to interact with the world and to respond to the needs of others, especially the weakest. What is needed for the salvation of a community is a communal commitment, which integrates the spiritual and moral dimensions of the Gospel in the heart of local institutions and structures, making them instruments for the common good, not places of conflict, self-interest, or sterile struggles. #ApostolicJourney #Cameroon

One of the most brutal scenes in human history was captured live on broadcast. Paramedics tried to rescue the journalists who were targeted inside the hospital. As soon as the rescue operation began, an Israeli soldier targeted them again. A moment the world must never forget.

Israel killed two UNICEF drivers trying to get WATER to families in Gaza. Is this story going to get any coverage? Or is the ongoing genocide not newsworthy?

Our daughter, Rachel Corrie, was killed in 2003 in Gaza, while trying to protect a Palestinian home facing illegal destruction by the Israeli military. She was 23 years old. The massive, armored Caterpillar D-9 bulldozer that crushed her was operated by two Israeli soldiers and manufactured in the United States. It was the same type of militarized bulldozer that US presidents from George W. Bush through to Donald Trump have delivered to Israel. Today, as the destruction of Palestinian homes has only become more commonplace, not to mention the horror of Israel’s genocide, Senator Bernie Sanders will force a vote in the Senate to try to end this cycle of death by banning the transfer of D-9 bulldozers to Israel. We hope he will not take this stand alone. No policy can bring back those taken from us by these actions—children and other loved ones. But the Senate now has an opportunity to honor the memories of our daughter, other Americans, and thousands of Palestinian civilians killed, and to show that their deaths, and all the destruction, will no longer be condoned and funded. We hope those elected to represent us, the American people, understand the message that voting to block these D-9 bulldozers will send. This will not be a symbolic gesture, but a concrete step toward the protection of human life. thenation.com/article/politi…

depaul coming up with $42 million for their new basketball facilities and then immediately proceeding to close their art museum and student theater is a pretty scathing indictment of the institution and also society as a whole

Israel just blew up a public high school in Marwahin, South Lebanon. Not a military base. A school.

Chuck Schumer's two votes tonight in favor of bombs and bulldozers to Israel is yet another reason Senate Democrats must vote to remove him as leader post the midterms.

@jimsguts @jfgrohs @ChristopherHale There are specific doctinal criteria for a just war including trying diplomacy first. Fails that criteria including the rest of them (must be defensive, not for power, resources, or territory).

@jfgrohs @ChristopherHale How did he interpret it improperly?

NEW: Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters today that Pope Leo XIV doesn't understand “something called the just war doctrine.” Pope Leo is an Augustinian friar who spent twelve years leading Augustine’s religious order. Augustine invented the doctrine. thelettersfromleo.com/p/something-ca…

@CalmCoolSerene @ChristopherHale

@ChristopherHale Doesn't matter. The pope politically weaponized God's teachings, in the process watering down the beautiful complexity of the Holy Bible into one dimensional platitudes. He's not the elected POTUS, and he's not privy to all that leads to excruciating decisions. Out of bounds.
