Never let these genociders rest.
Report: Hind Rajab Foundation has welcomed reports that Israeli genocider Itamar Ben-Gvir has cancelled his planned trip to NY for a UN policing conference.
He cancelled the trip following calls for his prosecution & planned anti-genocide demonstrations.
Israeli leaders have travelled the world expecting impunity. That expectation is beginning to erode.

Election wins prove pro-Palestine US campus protests didn’t fail: Activists
"In New York, Darializa Avila Chevalier, an activist who participated in the pro-Palestine protests at Columbia University, won a Democratic congressional primary against a five-term incumbent.
Avila Chevalier’s win was one of several victories for pro-Palestine candidates in New York last week.
Last year, Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City, in part thanks to the efforts of young pro-Palestine activists who powered his campaign.
In Colorado on Tuesday, Melat Kiros, who was fired from her law firm in 2023 for a letter defending Palestinian rights supporters from accusations of anti-Semitism, ousted a House member who had been in Congress for nearly 30 years.
Candidates backed by supporters of Palestinian rights also won key races in Pennsylvania and New Jersey."

As #Trump rebrands DC festivities as a "spectacular Trump rally," broadcasters should look elsewhere to celebrate the #UnitedStates’ 250th.
As with so much in DC, Trump took over. His effort to rebrand the Washington, DC, events, provides #media & #news outlets an opportunity to instead look around the rest of the country — so do it.
Ignore the Trump rally.
As an example, PBS will turn to Williamsburg, Virginia, instead of DC.

"Requiem for America on the Fourth of July"
Neoliberalism or "cutthroat capitalism is the poison that destroyed our democracy."
"It gave the billionaire class & corporations the ideological cover to impoverish the working class, impose crippling austerity, hollow out democratic institutions, buy off our two ruling political parties & deform our courts into appendages of corporations & the rich."

U.K. Reform Party leader Nigel Farage is once again under scrutiny for his finances. The News Agents ask how long his "man of the people" act can go on, with his five homes, £5 million gift from a crypto billionaire, and £270,000 payment for advertising gold bars. "He's raking it in from gold bullion, whilst he's also talking about getting rid of workers' rights, getting rid of the minimum wage, getting rid of the protection for people in their employment," says Emily Maitlis.

Switching from Desktop Linux to FreeBSD.
👾People have been talking about switching from Windows to Linux since the 1990s, but in the world of open-source operating systems, there is much more variety than just the hundreds of flavors of Linux-based or Unix-based operating systems today. Take FreeBSD’s customized desktop version GhostBSD, for example. The basic summary here is that GhostBSD is rather impressive and easy to set up for a desktop.👾
<https://www.ghostbsd.org/>
⁉️One of the most significant differences is probably that Linux is just a kernel, with [usually] the GNU/Hurd userland glued on top of it to create GNU/Linux. GNU and BSD userland are similar, and yet different, with varying levels of POSIX support. This effectively means that FreeBSD is a singular OS with rather nice documentation. Also FreeBSD have single package manager [pkg] for all derivatives that’s simplifies things a lot. The bhyve hypervisor makes running VMs a snap. A robust ZFS filesystem is also a big plus.⁉️
<https://wiki.freebsd.org/bhyve>
What counts against desktop FreeBSD in the end is a less refined experience in some areas, despite FreeBSD being able to run Linux applications courtesy of binary compatibility. With some developer love and care, FreeBSD might make for a nice desktop alternative to GNU/Linux before long, one that could be tempting even for the die-hard Windows holdouts among us.](https://friendica.hellquist.eu/photo/preview/640/5668752 "You may like:

Interview: Elon Musk, Marc Andreessen et al say:
"I'll just spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy the government outright... I can then have the government reward me with billions of dollars of contracts".
If the SEC, FTC or anyone else "is investigating my companies... I can just tell them to knock it off, & they'll do it."
20 yrs ago, Musk couldn't do that. But then SCOTUS said "we'll allow it."
