It's good for a new generation of young people to see exactly what centrists and mainstream liberals are.

Columbia Professor Rebecca Jordan-Young: "The faculty who are supporting the students do not all agree on the issue of Israel and Palestine...[but] we are astonished and disgusted with the way the university has cracked down on the students."
Take a moment to ponder how isolated Biden has made the US. Biden lobbied Japan, South Korea & Ecuador HARD to oppose the Palestine resolution so that the US wouldn't have to veto. They refused. So Biden cast his 4th veto in 7 months (!!) This is the opposite of leadership.

"From the River to the Sea" is considered antiSemitic, but there's no cost to elected officials for saying horrifically dehumanizing things towards Palestinians: The Vicious Things Republicans Have Said About Palestinians Since October 7 by @prem_thakker theintercept.com/2024/04/04/rep…

Funny, no condemnation included for when radical Israelis (including current ministers in Bibi's government) and their allies use the first half of that phrase, which explicitly and exclusively means the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from all of that land.

Fascist Republicans like @KariLake & @TomCottonAR are blatantly inciting political violence. Top Dems need to make sure their messaging is slamming these explicit threats to democracy. Cotton needs to ge censured by Senate.

Or the US could just pressure Israel, by stopping the flow of offensive weapons, to stop blocking aid. The pier was never going to be as effective at getting aid in as the trucks.

The goal is a ceasefire, the strategy is mass demonstrations everywhere until our leaders realize their complacence and complicity is untenable. We would hope NBC’s senior political reporter could understand this—it is a basic civil disobedience and protest tactic.

This is what authoritarians do: incite violence against anyone seen as having the power to harm Cult Leader. This is also designed to make it very difficult to find jurors and thus proceed with the trial. It is form of sabotage of our democratic justice system.
Fox News host Jesse Watters on Tuesday broadcast extensive biographical details about Juror No. 2 -- her neighborhood, occupation, education, marital and family status, and what industry her fiance works in. He concluded by saying, "I'm not so sure about Juror No. 2." He…
Trump has told us the plan. He couldn't be clearer. We should anticipate and start the counteroffensive now. 2/2 @TheAtlantic theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Told that Sen. Warner just admitted on the Senate floor that the "everyone is a spy" FISA amendment is poorly drafted, but that everyone should vote for the bill anyway because he got assurances from Garland that he'd interpret it narrowly Good thing nobody else will ever be AG!
I'm dumbstruck that Merchan didn't anticipate this and put those changes in beforehand. Our institutions are sleepwalking while Trump has already told us his intentions: threats and violence. The question isn't whether Trump will incite. He will. The question is are we ready? 1/
Update: Justice Merchan wants changes in the juror info that gets out to the public. He says jurors’ employer name will be redacted from court records. And he urges the press to “apply common sense.” Says press reports intimidated this woman and cost the case a juror.
It's good for a new generation of young people to see exactly what centrists and mainstream liberals are.

There’s a famous letter about people who say "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action.” Were they the good guys? I forget
What I observed at Columbia were students and members of the public who fundamentally don’t understand discourse. They want to yell, scream, and intimidate, and they have no interest in engaging in any conversation.
The New York Times has mentioned Christopher Rufo more often in the last year than at least 4 cabinet officials (I didn't check them all) findinggravity.net/p/the-new-york…
Informative thread from a journalist who routinely covers arrests of protesters. Talia says that protesters who are arrested are just released without being given a phone call or held on bail (which means the protesters won't need bail funds).
Students are being given outdated legal info, directed to write the NLG number on their arm & told to ask “Am I being detained?” if cops grab them. They’re not going to get a phone call, and as soon as a cop touches them they’re detained - anything said is recorded on bodycam.
Read it. Read it again. Republicans in Louisiana voted to repeal lunch breaks for child workers. Wrap your head around modern slavery. This is the Republican Party today.

The press is being banned from the institution that administers the Pulitzer Prizes.
NYPD forced all press out except for their own cop photographer, who doesn’t carry a press card — but a police badge. He’s taking video on his phone and shooting on a Canon.
What our political press was helpfully giving us after the first day of jury selection. Deletions cover details that do not add to public understanding but would make it far easier to track down the people. And that were in original Politico report.

Have any of the major news outlets ever done a major piece on it being a bit strange that jurors have to fear for their lives due to the former president. You know, this is not normal.

@eorden didn't a juror just have to recuse herself because details like this were reported and led to people identifying her?
@eorden Stop posting this information. Why is it anyone’s business? You’re endangering these people.
@eorden Aren't you reading any of the comments? I'm disgusted with your behavior and you should know better than to do this after the judge already warned you. Unfollowed!
@eorden Are you kidding? Did you not hear the judge ask you to not publish identifiers that could endanger these jurors? Juror 2 was threatened last night by Jesse Waters with exactly the info you trumpet here. Please take this down. Please.
