About 77,000 women are sitting in state prisons today, including almost 19,000 for drug crimes alone. 39% were single moms living with their kids at the time they were arrested.

BREAKING: RAFAH IS BEING BOMBED TONIGHT Shocking footage captures Israeli airstrikes hitting a residential area in Rafah. Imagine having to live through this night after night.
Breaking: The child Abdulrahman Mustafa Abu Ghoulah succumbed to his injuries following an Israeli airstrike on a shelter where his family had sought refuge.
Just 3 days ago 11 children went to a play ground in al-Maghazi refugee camp 🇵🇸 All were murdered in an air strike by Israeli 🇮🇱 drones You may not know as there was hardly a mention in mainstream media The media is complicit in genocide.
Columbia University Human Rights Fellows renounce their affiliation with the university. docs.google.com/document/d/16F…
As a former @ColumbiaLaw Human Rights Fellow, I join 49 of my distinguished human rights & social justice honorees in repudiating our titles and withdraw our consent for @Columbia to display our names, images, and work until student-led demands are met: docs.google.com/document/d/16F…
This account by a veteran Jewish Israeli photographer Shaul Golan who was beaten and assaulted by Jewish settler militia in occupied West Bank got lost in all the news. It happens daily on various levels to Palestinians. It’s starting to happen more to Jews as well
Looking at photos of the 1968 student uprising at Columbia. Protesting the university’s affiliation with Pentagon, students first took over the university president’s office. Here’s a student sitting in the president’s chair and smoking one of his cigars.
So looks like calling in the NYPD to arrest over 100 students for peacefully protesting in solidarity with Palestinians in an attempt to silence them has backfired for @Columbia. It’s night 3 and these students are making it clear they’re not going anywhere.
If I know one thing about colleges, it’s that shutting down anti-war protests always looks great in future history books
After the Atlantic magazine and the New York Times spent the last 10 years lecturing us on how college kids, who hold almost no power, are a grave threat to freedom of speech. Of course it was always the very powerful administrators and donors who were the real threat.

LMAO, what did I say the other day?! That they’d say NO ONE could speak at ALL. And here we are! This is the liberal American university, folks! They will not let ANYONE speak if they can’t GUARANTEE they can control everything they say!! They’ll burn it all to the ground!

BREAKING| Israeli jets target two apartments in Rafah, Gaza again, which were targeted an hour ago killing a family of eight. The second strike was conducted after hundreds of people gathered to pull out the victims of the first strike.
Former Hennepin County Sheriff Hutchinson, Hutch flipped his car drunk driving going 125 mph, refused to resign, ran his office using bigotry, threats and physical harassment that will end up costing taxpayers in lawsuits, collected more than $120 K while on paid leave in 10 mos,

Blocking traffic is illegal, inconsiderate and wrong. But using deadly force against people for blocking traffic is a crime. Do not commit crimes. And it is flagrantly irresponsible for a United States Senators to encourage the commission of crimes.
I encourage people who get stuck behind the pro-Hamas mobs blocking traffic: take matters into your own hands to get them out of the way. It's time to put an end to this nonsense.
