Parents of the 168 schoolchildren killed in Minab are struggling to process the scale of the loss, returning each night to keep vigil at their children’s graves. Drop Site correspondent Mahmoud Aslan reported that families arrive carrying rugs and cushions, food, water, and candles, placing them beside the small, freshly dug graves. They clean the tombstones, tend the surrounding earth, and settle in for the night—keeping a quiet vigil until dawn. 🎥 Video report by @8Sarmad (full report is linked below)
Excellent mural of Rama Duwaji, wife of NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, that appeared in NYC a week ago. Never forget that Duwaji repeatedly cheered October 7 atrocities. If she was wife of Republican mayor of NYC, this would be on front page of NY Times and discussed nonstop on CNN.

Trump: So I'm tying homeland security into voter identifications with picture and proof of citizenship in order to vote. Don't worry about Easter, going home. Make this one for Jesus, ok?
To be clear, I want ICE everywhere. Airports. The Social Security office. The DMV. Water parks. Grocery stores. Truck stops. The tiddy bars. Can you imagine how much that would improve the experience everywhere?
When you consider everything they did to silence Riley, you realize why so many women & girls still fear speaking up. It also deepens your respect for those that bravely do it anyway, regardless of the price. And there’s always price.
Iran Military Spokesman to Palestine: "Do not think you are alone in this struggle against the usurping Zionist regime... We are with you, on an unchanging covenant... We pledge to remain steadfast until beloved Palestine returns free and proud to its rightful owners."
I have serious problems with the term “settler violence.” It is a generalization that demonizes a community of 500,000 people - almost all of them are good, law-abiding citizens. But we cannot let that defense blind us. What has been happening in the West Bank - like the attacks by Jewish extremists in some 20 locations last night - is an abomination. These actions are anti-Jewish, they are the antithesis of what it means to be Israeli, and they must be stopped with the most aggressive steps law enforcement has at its disposal. Beyond the moral rot, this is a strategic liability. Israel is in a war against Iran and we have a rare moment to unite a global coalition from the US to Europe to the Gulf, but that support is undermined when these attacks occur. @netanyahu knows this and for that reason he went to the IDF Central Command on Friday to try and stop the violence in the middle of a war that needs to be his sole focus. What these attackers are doing is not just criminal; it is a threat to our national security. We cannot defeat our enemies abroad while a violent fringe undermines our legitimacy from within.
Another cornerstone of Project 2025 and the Trump republicanism is to intentionally break government services and say “see government doesn’t work” so they can try to privatize essential services with tax payer money to enrich their friends
Imagine how fucked up you've got to be to set an ambulance on fire.
