Jaime Harrison: "A Court that takes away rights, weakens voting protections, ignores ethics concerns, and shields their political Boss in the White House shouldn’t be shocked when Americans start asking whether it’s still a court, or is an exclusive club of political stooges."

Gaza is a testing laboratory, not only for warfare, but also for "systematic, meticulously managed, & openly visible starvation".

Western governments "share responsibility for sustaining the policy."

“This is not only a struggle against what Israel did to the Palestinians in Gaza, but a global struggle against these kinds of actions.”

~Shmuel Lederman, Israeli researcher

🧵 On my drive back from Oregon yesterday I stopped by the Tule Lake WWII Japanese concentration camp. It is now a vacant lot with only the stone monument seen below to mark the location & history.

Today in Music History May 21, 1904: Jazz legend and piano master Fats Waller was born. His creativity and innovations in the Harlem stride style of piano playing influenced much of the jazz that followed. During his career, he copyrighted over 400 of his compositions. He started playing piano at age six. As a teenager, he studied with the stride piano master, James P. Johnson. In 1926, he was kidnapped by Al Capone’s men and forced at gunpoint to perform for the gangster’s birthday party. In the early 1940s, he became the first African American songwriter to compose a hit Broadway musical.

The South remains solidly racist, and now… #SCOTUS has given them the OK to completely eliminate Black representation - so they’re doing just that. The #Trump administration has fired or demoted Black generals - as Trump notoriously doesn’t ever want to stand next to a Black American at a military event. The #TrumpRegime has declared war on #DEI and is moving to disenfranchise Black voters. And still, there are some conservative, Black #Republicans who support this racist administration, even a Black senator. Go figure🤔 #racism #BLM


Mass mobilizations for Black voters' rights are planned for this weekend in Selma and Montgomery #Alabama. They are part of a national day of action for voting rights.

i hesitated to post this, that i'm making light of someone with mental health issues. but this is mental health issues insofar as it's the end product of #entitlement

it's emblematic of what is going on in the #usa now

and this isn't about rules. that's the conceit for her to channel her real feelings

what is it about these crowds feels threatening to her? i wonder what?

🤔

she wouldn't be acting like this if these were white crowds: she wouldn't feel threatened by that

"Every Black Republican now serving in the U.S. House of Representatives is leaving. Every single one. Wesley Hunt, Burgess Owens, John James and Byron Donalds — the four Black Republican faces most often used as evidence that the GOP was somehow diverse, inclusive and post-racial — are all walking away. That is an indictment. Republicans recruited Black candidates not to reform policy, but to provide political cover. Now the mask is slipping":

Report: Israeli soldiers said the army ordered troops to kill any man they encountered in Gaza from Oct 7 2023.

“A man, no matter what age, don’t play games with it; kill immediately," were the orders. "We need to kill him - yes, even if he is completely unarmed.”

“They even told us that if it’s a woman or a child, use your judgment, because things happen."
