Expand the Supreme Court or we lose our democracy to a right-wing Christian theocratic autocracy.

White: You were betrayed and arrested and falsely accused. It's a familiar pattern that our Lord and Savior showed us. You will be victorious in all you put your hand to because God is using you.

The whole Iran war is looking more and more like a gimmick to drop energy sanctions on Russia and pressure Europeans to do the same. A war to make Russia’s much larger war easier and possible to sustain.

A new Israeli law that would allow the execution of Palestinians convicted on terror charges for deadly attacks, but not Jewish extremists accused of similar crimes, would constitute a war crime if applied, according to the UN human rights chief. trib.al/0RuYJAB

This is a threat of war crimes, of crimes against humanity, from a sitting US senator. The reason the US never signed up to the ICC is because a bunch of US politicians would have been indicted by now.

“5 years ago, in the top 10 would be 8 U.S. universities, 1 from France, and 1 from Germany and/or the UK, depending on the count. Right now, if you see the same index in 2025, 8 of the top are Chinese and only 1—Harvard—remains,” says Albert Bourla, chairman and CEO of Pfizer, Inc. Bourla refers to the Nature Index, a ranking of universities and institutions by their contributions to high-quality scientific research in the natural sciences. 🔗 Watch the full conversation: on.cfr.org/4bIWMw3

As intended! Trump campaigned on making Russia and China "do great." Wrecking America is necessary to let autocracies flourish.

"beneath this protective canopy, an inconspicuous yet consequential transformation has taken hold that is more perilous than the missiles themselves: The Iron Dome has eliminated Israelis’ fear of war." Worth your time, from Israeli publication @972mag: 972mag.com/iron-dome-inte…

One big winner of the war in Iran is Russia. During it, the U.S. has lifted sanctions on Russian oil, even as Putin assists Iran. Now @POTUS may use the war as a pretext to withdraw from NATO--which would fulfill Putin's wildest dream. wsj.com/livecoverage/i…

REP. GREG LANDSMAN: Trump waived sanctions on two Russian oil companies that have directly funded and facilitated the abduction and indoctrination of Ukrainian children. These companies are helping to steal children, and Trump is helping them make billions of dollars.

Kristi Noem rigging the property appraiser’s exam while governor so her daughter could get her license, killing a puppy, & giving her boyfriend a powerful job in govt while cheating on her cross-dressing spouse is not that unusual on the spectrum of Republican politician behavior

יוענה גונן כותבת: כבר חודש שהגדוד הזה משתתף במסע טיהור אתני אלים ונהנה מחסינות מוחלטת — כי זה בדיוק מה שהחיילים נשלחו לעשות. רק אחרי שאיזה מאיר אחד היה מטומטם מספיק להגיד את זה לכתב אמריקאי, צה"ל נזכר פתאום בכל מיני "ערכים" haaretz.co.il/opinions/2026-…

The death of a nearly blind refugee from Myanmar who was found on a Buffalo street in February — five days after Border Patrol agents left him at a doughnut shop — has been ruled a homicide, authorities said Wednesday. to.pbs.org/3NZGHsz

Detention, family separation, and ICE’s attacks on our neighbors have serious impacts on our kids. Pediatrician Dr. Tania Caballero details the short and long-term medical and psychological consequences of Trump’s immigration crackdown on children and families.

Despite few amendments to the previous drafts, any death sentences imposed under this law would constitute a violation of the right to life and, when imposed against Palestinians from the OPT, may also amount to war crimes. The international community must exert maximum pressure on the Israeli authorities to immediately repeal this law, fully abolish the death penalty, and dismantle all laws and practices that contribute to the system of apartheid against Palestinians.

.@ChefJoseAndres: I am a cook and I know there is no America without immigrants. There is no food at our table without immigrants. There is no farm without immigrants. There are no kitchens without immigrants.

“We’re going to bring them back to the stone ages where they belong.” He’s talking about a country of 90 million people. Vile, horrifying, evil.

Israel’s parliament has passed a discriminatory death penalty bill that targets Palestinians. This bill aims to execute Palestinian detainees quickly and with limited scrutiny. The Israeli parliament should immediately repeal this discriminatory bill.

Behind the bland language of Israel's new death-penalty law is a deeply discriminatory regime that will see Palestinians rushed to execution while Jews are spared -- the latest element of Israel's apartheid determination to dominate occupied Palestinians. x.com/UNHumanRights/…

ICE has been engaged in a full-fledged lie for almost a year now. They have claimed they have the authority to arrest people in courthouses, but they admitted to a judge just last week that this was patently false. The American people deserve answers for this blatant violation of the law and I’m making sure ICE will be held accountable. audacy.com/1010wins/podca…
