@toraiseright @Acyn So why did he need millions from @AIPAC?

The opponent Massie is mocking is a retired Navy SEAL with more than 30 years of service who now works as a farmer. You can’t get more American than that. If he were truly being honorable like he claimed, he would’ve respected that instead of mocking him. He’s just an effing bully. Actions speak louder than words.

Massie: I would have come out sooner but I had to call my opponent to concede and it took a while to find him in Tel Aviv

Today marks 73rd anniversary of the Nakba when more than half of Palestine's native population close to 800,000 was uprooted in 1948. 531 villages were destroyed. Palestinian sources, combined with Israeli military archives, have listed 31 confirmed massacres. THREAD

WOW! @Theintercept reviewed more than 12000 print articles and 5000 TV segments to check for biases on Israel-Palestine. I thought it would be bad. I had no idea it was THIS bad. No wonder Gaza killed what little credibility mianstream media had. In NYT, Israel's right to defend itself was invoked 99 times. Only once for Palestine. On CNN and MSNBC, it was invoked 755 times for Israel. But only 8 times for Palestine. Emotive words such as slaughter and massacre were used frequently when Israelis had been killed. They were NEVER used in print when Palestinians were killed. In Ukraine, 262 children were killed in the war, and it was mentioned 4223 times. In Palestine, more than 10,000 children were killed, but it was mentioned only 3632. The full article is in the subtweet. It's a MUST READ:

@HillelNeuer @FranceskAlbs What is her inflammatory conduct? Telling the truth when others are too morally & spiritually bankrupt to do so?

It is important to be clear about this ruling. This is only a preliminary injunction issued at an early stage of litigation. The court has not issued a final ruling on the merits of the case, nor has it vindicated your conduct or statements. The decision temporarily pauses enforcement of sanctions while the litigation proceeds. The opinion primarily addresses constitutional and procedural questions, including First Amendment concerns related to sanctions imposed in response to speech. It does not endorse your rhetoric, your conduct as a U.N. official, or the substance of your claims. The underlying concerns about your conduct remain unchanged. You are the first U.N. special rapporteur in history to be formally condemned by numerous democratic governments for Holocaust inversion, antisemitic rhetoric, and gross misconduct. Governments including the United States, France, Germany, Canada, the United Kingdom and others have publicly denounced your statements and conduct. See here: unwatch.org/condemnations-… You have repeatedly compared Israelis to Nazis (including last week). You accused the United States of being controlled by the “Jewish lobby.” You minimized and rationalized Hamas terrorism, which you have repeatedly called “resistance.” You turned a U.N. mandate that is supposed to uphold impartial human rights principles into a platform for political activism and extremism. See here: unwatch.org/francesca-alba… This ruling is not a moral vindication, and it does nothing to restore the credibility that you have squandered through years of inflammatory conduct.

BREAKING! US court ha suspended the US sanctions against me! As the judge says: "Protecting the Freedom of speech is always just the public interest". Thanks to my daughter and my husband for stepping up to defend me, and everyone who has helped so far. Together we are One.

@michelletandler Palestinians have been saying this for years. Because you don’t consider them human, you don’t listen or care.

Front page of the NYTimes - accusing IDF & Israelis of "mass rape". Not a single shred of evidence was listed in the piece, other than the testimonies of 14 people, most of whom are connected to Hamas. I'm at a loss for words.

@DavidShuster @nytimes @NickKristof Like they retracted “Screams Without Words”?

Hearing from longtime friends @nytimes there are already discussions, including up the masthead, about retracting @NickKristof column. Issues with source credibility and lack of evidence. No indications the Kristof sourcing mistakes were deliberate. Still problematic:

@NickKristof @ScarboroughNow Meanwhile @nytimes relentlessly pushed the false story about mass rapes perpetrated by Palestinians on October 7th. Most people still think it is true & The Times has not bothered to retract it.

This is a hard article to read, but I hope you'll do so. I've spent some time reporting on widespread rape and other sexual violence of Palestinian male and female prisoners by Israeli authorities, and the article is now published. The assault victims were warned not to give speak of what they endured -- they were sometimes told they would be killed or raped if they gave interviews -- but they found the courage to do so. One man described being raped three times in a single day in Israeli prison, the third time after he tried to protest. A young woman said the guards would come in at the beginning of each shift and strip her naked and abuse her. Another reported that she was shown photos of herself being raped and warned they would be released unless she cooperated with Israeli intelligence. Even three children who had been detained told me they had been sexually abused. Look, whatever our position on the Middle East, we should be able to agree on being anti-rape. Sexual assaults were horrific when Israeli women were targeted on Oct. 7, and they're equally horrific when Israeli authorities use them against Palestinians day after day after day. We should be able to find common ground in opposing rape. Here's a gift link to the article: nytimes.com/2026/05/11/opi…

Found out that unfortunately Chobani literally sponsors the ADL. You know, the leading U.S. authority on antisemitism, where they count every instance of a Jewish person witnessing a keffiyeh or a Palestine protest as an antisemitic incident.

Humanity thrived for thousands of years without AI. We can live without it. What we cannot live without is fresh water, farmers, agriculture, and land. Stop supporting AI. It’s destroying our planet.

@mFarshneshani @Jackiew80333500 @LuluGNavarro Agreed. She upheld the neoliberal world view represented by the @nytimes. @TuckerCarlson came across as much more humane and authentic, despite her multiple attempts to catch him in various inconsistencies and refusal to engage with substantive issues.

In his NYT interview, Tucker Carlson raises a point with obvious salience to its audience. Instead of pulling the thread, @lulugnavarro pivots away. The interview is full of moments like this— Tucker raises points that cut across the usual “left vs right” framing, many of which Americans broadly agree on, and they’re simply not engaged or contested. But why? Does it cut against the outlet of record’s editorial line? Would engaging the point breathe life into ideas they’d rather keep off the table?

This is truly a masterpiece.

LIVE FOOTAGE: After days of being trapped under the rubble, two Palestinian children were saved by First Responders. They were found hugging each other.

According to Amnesty International, “one of the most devastating consequences of Israel’s occupation is its discriminatory policies on Palestinians’ access to adequate supplies of clean and safe water.” canadiangeographic.ca/articles/water…

@s_m_marandi @CallaWalsh Are we tired of winning yet? 😂

The opening of the Strait of Hormuz is not unrestricted and comes with three conditions: 1. Only commercial ships are allowed to pass; military vessels or shipments from belligerent parties are not permitted to transit. 2. The management and determination of which ships may pass lies with Iran. 3. This transit occurs only via the route designated by Iran.

@RepPressley @masspeaceaction Bravo, congresswoman!

IT'S OFFICIAL: The House has passed our extension of TPS for Haiti. This win wouldn't be possible without the strength & organizing of our movement to defend our Haitian neighbors. To those in the #MA7 & beyond, this is for you. The Senate must pick this up without delay.
