I repeat once again that uncommitted did everything right and you better learn how to respect the people involved because they're gonna keep doing everything right and moving up in the party.

The co-founder of the 2024 National Uncommitted Movement, Abbas Alawieh, decisively won his primary to become a State Senator in Michigan. Abbas was endorsed by both Bernie Sanders and Gretchen Whitmer. Abbas Alawieh also privately met with former VP Kamala Harris last month upon her request.

The white nationalists really love threatening us with a good time

JD Vance: "We don't want the next administration, whoever -- god forbid you're gonna have President El-Sayed in three years ... "

This is just rank Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism, based on the bigoted idea that there is something inherently scary about a president with the last name "El-Sayed." It is incumbent on all of us to call it out.

More than 4 million people have already lost SNAP benefits since last year's 2025 Republican reconciliation law was enacted. @katiebergh.bsky.social explains why the sharp decline reflects policy changes, not reduced need, via @wbur.org. www.wbur.org/npr/nx-s1-59...

Over 4 million people are no longer receiving food aid amid sweeping changes to SNAP

SNAP, also known as food stamps, has seen a rapid and consistent participation decline since last July. The drop comes as the program faces historic cuts and changes.

@abdulelsayed.bsky.social triumphing over something like $60 million, $32-ish million of it AIPAC money, is not a "narrow" victory, it's a people's earthquake. This kind of spending is oligarchy in action, to smother democracy through its formal channels, and is getting normalized. Still he won.

Inshallah when the Nazi Republicans party has finally been proscribed centrist Dems will become the reasonable conservatives they long to be and the DSA wing can finally offer the US a left party

He won!!! 😍

I admit to having been won over primarily by El-Sayed’s biceps. Sorry 😔

Press reporting that Infantino will attend De La Espriella’s inauguration. What a basket of reprobates the global far right is. And they now run everything!

Many say this leaves no path to redemption; I will note that paths to redemption exist, but they are for the offender to walk, not for others to deem it walked on their behalf. And a Nazi isn't walking a path of redemption if they remain in the Nazi party. Nothing stopping them. Path open.

ICE has killed another person.

The detainee had an extensive medical history, including epilepsy, according to a lawsuit. He had complained about his face and hand going numb just before his death, his mother said.

This seems absolutely rife including on the left. Someone told me last week I couldn’t be part of the pro-Palestine movement after I commented in support of the Moroccan migrants. Nativism is always a scourge and if we have to constantly fight it on the left, too, we’re toast

A shocking number of people believe, with zero evidence, that Israel is behind Moroccan migrants into Spain, which is just the Great Replacement conspiracy. Meanwhile, US Jewish orgs have declared war on Mamdani for accurately describing Netanyahu as a war criminal. www.haaretz.com/world-news/e...

My sincere question is why in the world would anyone prefer a robot editor when they could have me? Like, are you crazy?

This ICE flight just landed in Uzbekistan, an authoritarian state that has taken third-country nationals at least three times on the eight known removal trips there under Trump 2.0.

Gillian Brockell@gillianbrockell.com · 5d ago

I may have to update it again tomorrow. This ICE charter flight is following the route for Eastern Europe/Asia removals, which sometimes include third-country removals. Always hate the end of the month surge, this one was the worst.

It is extremely important right now that editors consider their basic responsibility to center human rights and guard against incitement

Trump is now on TV trying to make Spanish migration policy an issue in the US midterms, using the language of “invasion.” Meloni is losing her mind. This is straight-up great replacement theory discourse at the highest levels of Western politics. We are in tremendously dangerous times

The coverage of the Ceuta migrant arrivals is like catnip for fascists who want to lock down their countries and the middle-class people whose politics are animated by fear of dispossession and the press is gleefully playing to both groups and I think it's pretty unforgiveable

The way far right owned, right leaning @politico.com’s “Forecast” newsletter breathlessly “reported” how this “crisis” is “rattling” European capitals quoting far-right politicians is quiet a tell. 🫤 www.politico.com/newsletters/...

When I heard about this it was hard to believe, but now it's public. The US Administration is planning the full destruction of Optional Practical Training, the US's largest single source of global talent. I wrote about the effects of eviscerating OPT earlier this week: www.piie.com/blogs/realti...

Incredible that it is *UEFA* offering evidence you can do something other than instantly roll over and show your belly to oligarchs without a whimper
