New UN Commission of Inquiry report reinforces the consensus among experts around Israel’s genocidal campaign in Gaza.
As the Israeli govt escalates its assault on Gaza City & destroys Gaza’s remaining civilian infrastructure, states have a duty under Genocide Convention to act.

I think the environment should be put in the category of our national security. Defense of our resources is just as important as defense abroad. Otherwise what is there to defend?

A mainstream outlet finally does more than repeat the official BS statement from ICE about the shooting of Silvero Villegas-Gonzalez. This man's death should be a national scandal. Grateful for indy journalists who questioned the official narrative that corporate outlets mindlessly echoed last week.
Undocumented father killed by ICE agent in Franklin Park shooting had no criminal background, lawyer says
The undocumented father shot and killed by an ICE agent in Franklin Park, Illinois, only had a history of minor traffic violations, not a criminal record, according to his attorney.

The murder of Charlie Kirk was criminal, wrong, and should be condemned.
And Charlie Kirk was a horrible, hateful man who spent his life radicalizing young people to embrace their worst demons by targeting women, people of color, immigrants, and the marginalized.
I refuse to sanitize him.

So the boat may not have been carrying drugs or drug traffickers, wasn’t actually heading for the US, AND turned around before it was attacked. Trump/Hegseth/Rubio just murdered 11 people because they wanted to, then bragged about it as a win. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/u...
