77% of Democratic voters agree Israel has committed genocide in Gaza. 74% oppose additional economic and military aid to Israel. So far, only Rashida Tlaib and Chris Rabb are signed onto this campaign to keep the officials complicit in that genocide out of future administrations:

As Measles cases hit a 35 year high, as a senseless war rages on with no exit plan, as gas climbs to record highs, and the Epstein files remain secret, the U.S. Senate is holding a hearing today to yell at Dr. Fauci and again push horse dewormer on the American public.

If confirmed, this meeting shows the special influence Beijing has in #Myanmar. It has been nearly 3 years since former Thai FM Don Pramudwinai met Daw Suu Kyi in detention in July 2023. Cambodia’s former leader Hun Sen was rebuffed when he requested a virtual meeting with ASSK in 2024.

"Billionaires like thinkers who see their exploitation of the weak as good and natural. Epstein funneled ~$20m a year to academic men who shared his ideology [and got] to hold forth in formal sessions at Harvard, condemning feeding and caring for the poor as if he were making a scholarly argument."

They are trying to normalize cruelty and violence. We cannot allow it.

A tweet from Alison Cook reads: “The kids are alright.” The attached photo shows a young woman sitting on public transit holding a protest sign. The sign reads: “WHEN CRUELTY BECOMES NORMAL, COMPASSION LOOKS RADICAL,” with the words “CRUELTY” and “COMPASSION” written in red and the rest in black. Sunlight streams through the train windows, showing a brick building and blue sky outside.
