⭕️ Palestinian-American scholar Joseph Massad argues that liberal solidarity with Palestinians often extends only to recognizing them as victims of Israeli violence.
He draws parallels with South African anti-apartheid activist Steve Biko’s critique of white liberals, who claimed the moral authority to dictate how Black South Africans should pursue liberation. Massad argues that today’s liberals similarly condemn both Netanyahu and Hamas, positioning themselves as arbiters of acceptable Palestinian resistance while remaining, as Biko observed, “indifferent to the suffering” and “patient with the cruelty” inflicted on oppressed people.

Gaza had over 2 million olive trees until 2023.
About 150,000 remain.
Genocide is not only about killing. It also entails intentionally destroying the conditions of a people's existence and inflicting severe mental harm upon them.

The point is Israel genocide money backed Bell against a sitting Democrat who was demanding an end to the slaughter in Gaza. Bush was the incumbent, and they spent millions to remove her. Spare me the rest of the bullshit and baseless smears used in your defense of that.

Last night, Former Democratic Representative Cori Bush joined our Voices from the Uprising as part of the #TaxpayerUprising to share her recent trip to the West Bank & how we oppose the $1.5 trillion war budget.

Let ‘em know sis!
Republicans have been flooding the zone with lawlessness, cruelty, & corruption.
And Democrats have a mandate to match their energy—boldly & unapologetically.
It's not enough to be the adults in the room. We have to prove that we are the FIGHTERS in the room.

👀 Senator @scott_colom: “It’s not accurate to say @SenSchumer recruited me. The people of Mississippi recruited me… you think I was listening to someone that lives in Brooklyn?”
Wow, very different picture than the one Schumer + his allies are painting.

Van Hollen wants Democrats to withhold support for the December 11 government funding bill unless it prohibits spending on the Iran war, even if that risks a shutdown.
Unlike Schumer, who has called for ending the war but stopped short of exerting any pressure, Van Hollen said he wants to make defunding the illegal war a condition of keeping the government open.
Steph retweeted
WTF? Schumer has a 13% approval rate and we find out he's catering his actions to a fictional couple?
Senate Dems better not vote this clown in as Senate Majority Leader.
The contempt he has for the Dem base is absolutely unreal.
Time to wake tf up, VBNMW people, and #DemExit.

In our interview with @AbubakerAbedW last week, he noted the extreme sacrifices Palestinian doctors and other healthcare workers have made over the last three years of systematic genocide to keep medical services going. Listen to the full interview here: thecall1948.substack.com/p/e…

17-year-old Walid Khaled Ahmad died of starvation in Israel’s Megiddo prison in March 2025. On Thursday, Israeli authorities finally returned his body, nearly 20 months later.
The Brazilian-Palestinian teenager, who resided in Silwad in the occupied West Bank, died after roughly six months in detention. The Palestinian Prisoners’ Affairs Commission and Palestinian Prisoner’s Society said starvation and denial of medical care caused his health to deteriorate severely.
An Israeli judge closed the investigation in December 2025 despite acknowledging that Walid had been “apparently starved,” ruling that a causal link between his deteriorated physical condition and his death could not be established.
Around 350 Palestinian children remain imprisoned in Ofer and Megiddo, facing starvation, torture, physical assaults, sexual violence, and denial of medical care.
Corpo de adolescente brasileiro-palestino torturado até a morte por "israel" é devolvido após quase dois anos.
Walid Ahmed, 17 anos, cidadão brasileiro, foi sequestrado e assassinado por "israel" em um campo de tortura sionista em março de 2025.
O corpo de Walid, cuja autópsia revela sinais de tortura e fome a que foi submetido em "prisão" israelense, ficou sequestrado pelos israelenses por 19 meses e foi liberado hoje.

Chuck Schumer is allowing Republicans to ram through a maximum number between now and January of LIFETIME FEDERAL JUDGES WHO HATE REPRODUCTIVE CHOICE, PRISONERS, CONSUMERS, CIVIL RIGHTS, AND FAIR ELECTIONS because Schumer is a fucking dinosaur who does not understand the stakes
Our work through the holiday has resulted in Dems caving to expedited votes for constitutionalist judges for lifetime appointments today, with final votes Monday after time under the rules runs over the weekend.
Because we pressed forward, we will have advanced all outstanding judges ripe for confirmation reported out of the Judiciary Committee.
We can’t let up.
As a member of the Judiciary Committee, I will continue my work with the committee to expeditiously process the President’s nominees to the Senate floor.
I implore my colleagues to use every single day we have left in the majority to move these lifetime-appointed judges and core legislation across the finish line.

Meet Sammy, a farmer from Bethlehem, and one of the gentlest, bravest men I have ever met.
His mother, brother and cousin were killed by Israeli soldiers. Settlements now surround his home, built on land that once belonged to his family. Settlers regularly threaten and harass him and his family.
Despite the trauma, fear and unimaginable loss, Sammy refuses to abandon his ancestral land.
His story is one of heartbreak, courage, dignity and Palestinian resilience.
I had the privilege of hearing his story. Now I’m sharing it with you. Please help make his voice heard.
