The horrors being carried out by the Israeli military continue getting worse by the day. It is unconscionable that the Biden administration and members of Congress are still working to send more military funding and weapons to the Israeli government.

I've just invoked Art.99 of the UN Charter - for the 1st time in my tenure as Secretary-General. Facing a severe risk of collapse of the humanitarian system in Gaza, I urge the Council to help avert a humanitarian catastrophe & appeal for a humanitarian ceasefire to be declared.
Wow. Even at Biden’s thanksgiving getaway on Nantucket he was met with protesters charging him with genocide.
FYI I see zero press here for this very emotional vote. No one is here covering it. I personally haven’t seen this many Muslim and Palestinian constituents inside of seattle city council chambers. And the only councilmember in person is Kshama Sawant.

Sawant is the only councilmember who showed up. Cowards.

Seattle City Hall denied my media credentials to cover today’s city council’s vote on the ceasefire resolution but privately escorted Jonathan Ch*e upstairs to the chambers lol
BREAKING: Senator Jeff Merkley has just joined the call for a #CeasefireNOW. He is the second U.S. Senator to do so.
I am calling for a ceasefire—a cessation of hostilities by both sides. To endure, the ceasefire and the following negotiations must accomplish other essential objectives, including the release of all hostages and a massive influx of humanitarian aid. medium.com/@SenJeffMerkle…
BREAKING: Students at the Yale-Harvard football game are protesting Israel’s occupation and attack on Gaza.
Flying a Palestinian flag from the leaning tower of Pisa. Incredible.

the "controlled demolition" of a legislative building really makes a lot of long term plans very very clear
the "controlled demolition" of a legislative building really makes a lot of long term plans very very clear
After capturing it days ago, the IDF has now blown up the chambers of the Palestinian Legislative Council, Gaza's de facto parliament, in a controlled demolition. The previous, original building had also been destroyed by Israeli airstrikes in 2009.
I am deeply disturbed by the horrible situation and dramatic loss of life in several hospitals in Gaza. In the name of humanity, I call for an immediate humanitarian cease fire.
They took the photo, claiming that they were helping him, then they killed him minutes later. This is what his granddaughter wrote a short while ago.
Israeli soldiers pointed guns at NPR reporters. It detained, questioned + mocked their interviewee, a Palestinian farmer. The farmer was showing NPR his land, which the IDF won't let him access, causing him to lose income he earns from selling olives. npr.org/2023/11/13/121…
BREAKING: Palestinians are suing @POTUS, @SecBlinken, & @SecDef to stop U.S. support for Israel’s unfolding genocide, asking a U.S. Court to enforce the most basic & important legal—and moral—obligation in the world – preventing genocide. Read more: ccrjustice.org/stop-the-genoc…
Israel just killed Gaza journalist Ahmad Fatima. In 37 days, Israel has targeted and murdered 49 Palestinian journalists. In many cases, Israel has also targeted and killed their families. Genocide wants no records.
According to the most recent available report (published yesterday), Israel has killed over 100 UN aid workers since October 7th — more than in any conflict in the history of the United Nations, and all in barely over a month. reliefweb.int/report/occupie…

NEW ENCAMPMENT ALERT: Virginia Tech VT is a school I have covered many times and I am definitely not remotely surprised by this. SWVA does have its own radical contingent to support such an effort. Stick around as we look at their demands, a deeply radical VT Professor, and…
"Which is why I personally made it the first order of business for the new council"
Council President Sara Nelson on the proposed changes to Seattle's gig-work minimum wage: "The last thing I wanted to do was open up such a politically hot topic."
I am so sick of the moral panic about everything but killing people.
Remember folks, if there is a violent crackdown of a peaceful protest at a state university, you can request records of potential administration communications with elected officials
In which we learn that Princeton was fine graduating a student who took part in the January 6 assault on Congress but will expel a finishing PhD student for sitting on the grass.

it only took 2 officers to subdue the dangerous middleaged economics professor
@MiddleEastEye Here’s @EmoryUniversity economics professor Caroline Fohlin knocked to the ground with her head on the concrete. Her glasses are thrown off. She shouts “I’m a professor” #Gaza #Protesters
This is alarming.
Sara Nelson agrees that we should call out the National Guard to address crime in Seattle.
the fact that the college students protesting this got more backlash than this is insane to me
BREAKING| Israeli settlers block Jordanian trucks carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza.
Why were they under federal consent decree for all those years bob
Bob Kettle says Seattle has the best police force in the nation. Talks about living in Baghdad, Iraq.
oh wow wild almost like those were dozens of illegal arrests
CHARGES DROPPED AGAINST ALL UT STUDENTS. statesman.com/story/news/loc…
Columbus Police exactly one year ago when dealing with armed neo nazis vs today when dealing with college protesters.
One CM says let's call the national guard to patrol Seattle's streets. Another CM says let's pass new loitering laws while throwing police accountability to the winds. Meanwhile police are brutalizing college students all over the country. Tonight is feeling a little dystopian.
You have to make fun of this city in order to stay remotely sane in it. I mean look at this shit. 😂😭
UPDATE: SDOT says they removed the whole mural in a "two-step process" because the City didn't know what kind of paint JVP used so they had to schedule specialized equipment so that harmful substances do not get into storm drains leading to Puget Sound.
Let’s gooo Colin call her out
Council President Sara Nelson interrupts speaker @colinokeefe as he calls on he to recuse herself from Pay Up discussions because Seattle Hospitality Group, which presumably would benefit from minimum wage rollback, just bought into Fremont Brewing, her business.
Seattle hasn't registered a homicide in more than a month.
Sara Nelson agrees that we should call out the National Guard to address crime in Seattle.
If you're more mad about the college campus protests against mass graves than against the mass graves themselves you should probably take a long hard look at yourself in the mirror.
This is a textbook case for recusal.

So we're going to ... arrest the child victims of sex trafficking?
She says she plans to introduce legislation to reinstate the loitering law, and says the sex workers on Aurora are "mostly minors" who have been "prostituted since they were children."
