Netanyahu Is Dragging Israel Into Another Pointless Conflict – This Time With Turkey www.haaretz.com/opinion/edit...
haaretz.com
Editorial | Netanyahu is dragging Israel into another pointless confrontation – with Turkey
One cannot create security and foil threats only by bombing. This is no substitute for diplomacy and a well-thought-out policy, something which in the Netanyahu era has become devoid of any meaning

You’ve got to see this. Angie Nixon’s Café Resistance is so much more than a bookstore. It’s a community hub offering FREE tutoring, a food pantry, Black history classes, mentorship, mental health workshops, music lessons, healthcare resources and more.

Let's be absolutely clear. Whether Donald Trump is currently suffering from cognitive decline, a loss of mental capacity, dementia or any other mental or physical disorder, he was NEVER, at any point, fit to be president of the United States.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said. That is called murder when they do that. Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

Screenshot of a post on X by Neil Stone (@DrNeilStone) quoting the phrase “Only very sick kids should die from measles,” then responding: “No, Secretary Kennedy. NO child should die from measles. Because there’s a vaccine to prevent it.” Below the text is a Fox News video still showing two men in suits speaking in a newsroom-like setting. A banner reads “MEASLES OUTBREAK” with a subheading “KENNEDY EXPLAINS RELIGIOUS OBJECTIONS FOR UNVACCINATED,” alongside Fox News branding and the word “EXCLUSIVE.”

The New Resistance: Young Democratic mayoral candidates fighting for change in the Trump Era
The Democratic party has been struggling to mount a unified defense against the Trump administration. Author and scholar Bill McKibben argues that there’s a group of Democratic newcomers who may illustrate how to govern in the Trump era: not on a federal level but at a municipal one. McKibben says that unlike more established politicians these up-and-comers are actually trying “to address the issues of the day instead of trying to hem-and-haw around the edges and look for small advantages.”
