Note that 10/8 was before any significant retaliation.

(Yes, Israel did kill some of the terrorists who committed the massacre, but they hadn't invaded Gaza yet.)

So they weren't protesting, they were, as you said, celebrating.

Let's be clear - the Houthis don't have the technology to cut these cables as they threatened - but Russia does!

Several undersea communications cables in the Red Sea have been cut, affecting 25% of data traffic flowing between Asia and Europe

What a comparison - while Trump is focused on his latest scheme to avoid justice, President Biden is focused on actions that will improve the quality of life for the average American.

Penalties are free money to the credit card companies. They are already charging exorbitant, usurious interest rates. Once again, Biden actually accomplishes something positive, so watch the right sneer and belittle it.

They lied to you. Again.

The book banners keep saying they will only go after school libraries. These bills in Louisiana go after public libraries too.

Legacy media continue to focus on clicks instead of democracy.

It is flabbergasting to understand that most MAGA voters are functionally voting for a promise to never vote again.

@Oeneus

I'm sure they meant "death to Zionists", not "death to Jews", because, you know, antizionism isn't antisemitism, amirite?!

@stevel Nobody in the UK is really talking about the fact that this Home Office policy means they can in principle strip citizenship from and expel anyone with a single Jewish grandparent (b/c Israel's Law of Return applies), or a Canadian grandparent, or any Turkish ancestry AT ALL (Turkish citizenship is by descent, AIUI with no generational limit).

Funny how they only ever use it against dark-skinned people who embarrass the government politically.

"One of the deaths involved an unvaccinated 1-year-old girl with no underlying medical conditions."

The "Gilded Age" lives on, but in 2024, Republicans are setting a new standard for human rights violations. Workers wouldn't be allowed rest breaks, even in the severe heat of FL's summers, which has worsened with #globalwarming.

28-11: The FL state Senate just passed a bill to remove local govts' authority to adopt heat standards, such as guaranteed shade and rest breaks, for workers.

The bill would make all local heat protections “void & prohibited.”
