Having gutted the Voting Rights Act, our corrupt, far-right Supreme Court is busy remaking Congress in their image. Your weekly reminder: there's a compelling case for the impeachment and removal of at least two justices.
Screenshot of Graham’s quote retweet of news that the Supreme Court “cleared the way for Alabama to use a congressional map that a lower court had blocked on the ground that it violated Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act” — saying — “Having gutted the Voting Rights Act, our corrupt, far-right Supreme Court is busy remaking Congress in their image.

This is remarkable news receiving almost no coverage: some 23 countries are meeting this week to discuss concrete actions against Israel's violations of international law. These countries include: ***CHINA***, Brazil, Spain, Indonesia, and Ireland. www.middleeasteye.net/news/spain-a...
More than 20 countries are convening in Bogota next week to declare “concrete measures against Israel’s violations of international law”, diplomats told Middle East Eye.

The “emergency summit” is due to be held on 15-16 July, co-hosted by the governments of Colombia and South Africa as co-chairs of The Hague Group, to coordinate diplomatic and legal action to counter what they describe as “a climate of impunity” enabled by Israel and its powerful allies.

The Hague Group is a bloc of currently eight states, launched on 31 January in the eponymous Dutch city with the stated goal of holding Israel accountable under international law."In Bogota, the assembled states will not only reaffirm our commitment to resist the genocide, but devise a series of specific measures to move from words to collective action.”

The founding members of the group included Bolivia, Colombia, Cuba, Honduras, Malaysia, Namibia, Senegal and South Africa. 

States due to take part in the summit include Algeria, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Brazil, Chile, China, Cuba, Djibouti, Honduras, Indonesia, Ireland, Lebanon, Malaysia, Namibia, Nicaragua, Oman, Portugal, Spain, Qatar, Turkey, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Uruguay, and Palestine.
