I don’t think AOC would stomp Vance, either of Georgias senators would though. JD wouldn’t even get close because he hitched his wagon to Trumps revival of neoconservatism.
Acyn@Acyn

.@PabloReports: Do you think you could beat JD Vance in a head-to-head race for president, as polling suggests? AOC: I would stomp him.

After the Bondi Beach attack, the Australian PM chose empathy over propaganda and dogwhistle: stood with the Jewish community, met victims’ families, rejected Netanyahu’s cynical two-state claim, and visited Ahmed Al Ahmed in hospital. This is what leaders do.

We go on about anti Indian racism online (as we must) but how many of us Indians even know what Dr. Suri has been put through by ICE? This is real and material anti Indian racism in the US but because of his religion and his wife’s nationality we don’t care.
Rep. Pramila Jayapal@RepJayapal

Dr. Badar Khan Suri was unjustly detained and disappeared and experienced absolutely horrific treatment while in ICE detention. Listen to his story:

Never forget that 2025 is the year Elon Musk’s algorithm made anti-India garbage a cool revenue source for trailer trash like whoever this @ndcarson clown is.

This stuff is effectively indistinguishable from the kind of things they used to say about Italians 135 years ago.

Birthright citizenship was established on the backs of Black people and they have been OPENLY calling for Black people’s citizenship rights (to vote, to own land, etc.) to be revoked since 2023 that I can recall. This is a BLACK issue as well regardless of Latino people being the face
Margaret Kimberley@freedomrideblog

This is bad news. I have been warning about this. The end of or any changes to birthright citizenship will be disastrous for everyone, but especially for Black people. Please read what I wrote. blackagendareport.com/necessity-birt…

Today marks the 33rd anniversary of the demolition of the Babri Masjid - a black day in the history of independent India, when Hindutva fundamentalists launched one of the severest attacks on the secular and democratic foundations of our republic. On this day, the CPI(M) pledges to continue the unwavering struggle against right-wing communal authoritarian forces and to resolutely defend secular constitutional values.

A pregnant Indian woman was forcibly expelled across the border on the ‘suspicion’ that she was Bangladeshi. After enduring six months in a Bangladeshi jail, she has finally been brought home under orders from the Supreme Court. Democracy much !!

6th Dec 1956 & 1961, the world lost two influential thinkers of emancipation. B R Ambedkar & Frantz Fanon. Let their memory serve as a reminder of their struggles to build an anticasteist & antiracist unconditional humanity. Our mission being to link their thought to our present.

Fatima Bhutto hasn’t once written about the plight of the Ahmedis, a group in Pakistan her grandfather declared non-Muslim. She has rarely (if ever) spoken about the violence & sectarianism in Pakistan, unless it affects her and her family- maybe speaking out should start at home
Zeteo@zeteo_news

“The biggest Muslim star in India and perhaps even the world – has not publicly uttered one word about Palestine.” @fbhutto writes about Shah Rukh Khan’s hypocrisy in pretending to represent the best of secular India, while remaining silent on Gaza.

I was proud to support Starbucks workers striking here in Georgia for better wages. For context, their CEO made $95 million last year. Starbucks must come back to the table, negotiate, and raise worker pay.
