Israel just bombed the surgical ward of Nasser Hospital, a medical center it bombed and shelled numerous times during its war in Gaza
It murdered a doctor and his medical team
⚡️🚨 Israeli shelling targets the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, killing six people and wounding more than 20, according to local reports. Gaza Civil Defense spokesman Mahmoud Bassal said 5 were recovered and more than 20 injured evacuated, and reports later put the death toll at six, with extensive damage to the complex.

I can't get over how everyone suddenly understands how Force the Vote works.
⭕️ It would take just ~43 House Democrats to keep Hakeem Jeffries from becoming speaker. The Congressional Progressive Caucus alone expects more than 100 members in January.
🔹Its chair, Rep. Greg Casar (D-Texas), co-sponsored Rep. Rashida Tlaib's November 2025 resolution "recognizing the genocide of the Palestinian people in Gaza." Now he says he expects to "deliver the votes" for Jeffries. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), another co-sponsor, told MS NOW on Monday that Jeffries will have the caucus's unanimous support, calling his expected rise a "pretty historic moment." In all, 22 House Democrats backed the genocide resolution and well over 40 have described Israel’s actions as genocide.
🔹Jeffries has been one of the strongest supporters of Israel’s military response in Gaza. He opposed a July bid to cut off US military aid to Israel, saying it would "restrict our country's ability to confront Hamas, Hezbollah and other terrorist organizations in the region." His promised "reset" wouldn't touch aid until the current 10-year deal expires in 2028.
🔹The math: Speaker needs 218 votes cast for a person by name on Jan 3, 2027. With roughly 260 Democrats, if 43 commit to naming someone else and every Republican votes against Jeffries, he falls short.
🔹It's been done before. In January 2023, about 20 Republicans withheld their votes from Rep. Kevin McCarthy through 15 rounds of voting. He won only after major concessions, including a rule letting any single member force a vote to remove the speaker, which Rep. Matt Gaetz used to oust him nine months later.
🔗 Drop Site's Julian Andreone asked Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), another co-sponsor of the genocide resolution who backs Jeffries, whether progressives could use that kind of leverage.

Let's hope Jeffries doesn't sabotage this like he did the Hegseth impeachment.
🚨This morning we reached the required 218 signatures on my discharge petition for Epstein Files Transparency Act II !
I’m working closely with @RepJayapal, @RepTeresaLF and @RepRoKhanna to get this to the floor for a vote soon.

This movement is spreading across the planet.
People of conscience stand with Palestinians and their struggle for liberation.

Look over there wont work Chuck.
You and AIPAC-Shakur making threats to secure Israeli influence.
Impeachment by Massie nutshell game won't keep your voters busy 🤡
Incoming Rep. Don Leonard says top House Democrats have threatened to “make [his] life a living hell” and cost him re-election if he continues attaching conditions to his support for Hakeem Jeffries for speaker.
His conditions: 1) a vote on an amendment to end Citizens United and 2) “end U.S. support for the war in Iran and the country, Israel, that led us into it.”
He says Jeffries is refusing to meet with him and the threats are like something “out of a movie.”

Mark this post:
Democrats will do nothing meaningfully transformative with their midterm majorities.

I am calling on @RepValHoyle to challenge Rep. Jeffries for Speaker of the House. Run for it herself if necessary. But right now, we're not seeing any of our so-called progressive electeds standing up to the current leadership. AOC certainly isn't.
Either we get a more progressive Democratic leadership or the Democrats continue to make our case for us that they are controlled opposition.
“More than a million people signed a petition asking @HouseDemocrats to not elect @RepJeffries speaker— will that carry weight?”
@AOC reiterates that nobody is running against Jeffries, telling @JulianAndreone “it’s not a race right now” so 40+ Dems opposing is unlikely

Called it! Hakeem Jeffries is claiming if you don’t support him for speaker you’re racist! I’m black Hakeem. And I don’t support you for speaker because you support genocide and apartheid just like your buddy Jared Kushner.
CNN: Hakeem Jeffries responds to DSA supporters who chanted "You're next!" at victory party
"It was very interesting to me, as observed by others, that there was almost zero diversity in that crowd."

Jill Stein wouldn’t be funding ICE, dropping bombs on Iran, or funding genocide. If you are silent as she goes to prison while you celebrate AIPAC-funded Dems winning seats, you’re complicit.

Israel is not only murdering children. It's a slow torturous death. Paid for with tax dollars now under control of Democrats. Own it.

AOC voted to break a railroad worker’s strike.
Scoop: Zohran Mamdani has been meeting privately with union leaders, urgently talking up the need for a labor-aligned or leftist candidate to run for president, people familiar with the talks tell me.
He's arguing that progressives can't afford to squander their midterm momentum.
Behind closed doors, Mamdani has also said he's uncertain whether AOC will launch a White House run, the sources said.

In 2021, AOC didn’t say force the vote was impossible bc “the campaign started after the vote had already happened.” She said a bunch of disprovable nonsense that caused her to be humiliated by NFL player Justin Jackson before retreating to only speaking to podcasts that would never challenge her from the left.

So you're effectively saying that Democrats can't criticize their own politicians. That's called a cult, not a democracy.
For anyone struggling to distinguish political satire from a literal endorsement:
My point is simple: When you undermine Democratic leadership, sow division and create chaos in the wake of a historic Blue Tsunami, you’re HELPING whoever heads the Republican ticket in 2028.
That’s my political opinion. Not a claim of an actual endorsement.
I stand by my criticism. And I won’t be intimidated into silence.

The Greens won 53 races just in 2026. Almost all nonpartisan races for local office, where we win a majority of those we enter.

This isn't affecting just a few families in Gaza. 94% of Gaza’s population needs shelter assistance. Meaning they're living in tents. If they're lucky.
It's in your hands now, Democratic Congress.

I've been in politics for a quarter century. It's hard to express how staggering it is to see a conversation like this on corporate US media. The Morning Joe panel gobsmacked by the directness of @AbdulElSayed's points.
