Obviously a typo on the year …but I hope Ms Rachel continues to take on warmongers all over the world in 2026.

Tweet from @a_abdulruhman

“I do not wish to hear the voices of analysts, smug know-it-alls, or war profiteers. What I long for is to hear, see, and feel the lives of the survivors of genocide, to connect with their voices, their eyes, their sense of betrayal, their anger, their tears, their reproach. Everything about them, and only them.

Let the spaces be reserved for them alone, and steer clear of what we've mentioned.”

They should just call it the Nobel Warmonger Prize. The Nobel Dictatorship Prize. The Nobel Fascist Prize.

Did I have Ms. Rachel taking on Obama on my bingo card in 2026?

No, I did not.

Dear @barackobama,

I saw in your statement you said “Israeli families” & “the people of Gaza.”

Palestinians have families, too.

This kind of language contributes to dehumanization. Dehumanization is part of what caused so many to stay silent as 20,000 children were killed in this genocide.

I’ve sat with wonderful Palestinian families from Gaza. They look at their children just like we look at ours - with all the love & hope in the world.

Love,
Ms Rachel

"Representation" doesn't really matter. Celebrate the people worth celebrating. Not people who look like they might be worth celebrating.

I mean they know exactly what to do—voters have been telling them for 2 years—reject AIPAC money, call for sanctions on Israel, vote for resolutions for an arms embargo.

Years ago I was teaching my gun history class and at the end of the quarter one of the students said that he was in the campus TPUSA chapter and they put him up to taking the class to spy on me but he felt bad about that because he loved the class and learned a lot and had a great time

- 360 bodies of terrorists will be returned.

Any Democrat who claimed they were “working tirelessly for a ceasefire” should never live that bloodthirsty lie down. Let them be shamed for it for the rest of their lives.

Is there anyone within the Democratic Party Establishment that actually believes in the Party anymore? They all sound like Zionist parrots repeating talking points they no longer believe in but they just don’t want to be the first to break away from them long enough to produce an original thought.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Abolition is the only way forward. Good luck to those of you who still believe, even under authoritarianism, that the police will protect you.

So many “progressives” fell over themselves to defend dehumanizing language as political opinion. This is the kind of terrorizing chain reaction they’ve put into motion.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Doaa. Doaa is the mother of 3 children Omar, 10, Yasmine, 8 and Youseff, 4 but she primarily started this fundraiser to help her sister Amal who lost a husband and son and is trying to support her children Hiam, 13, Omar, 12 and Jawad, 7.

If I ever have to flee Georgia I’m not heading to California, I’m going to Illinois. I’m not impressed by governors with nice haircuts who destroy homeless encampments and host white supremacists on their podcast.

Give me a leader like JB Pritzker instead.
