Meanwhile, the rich and powerful commit heinous crimes with impunity.
Our rotten political system rewards dishonesty, abuse & greed. It’s time to replace it with a real democracy that works for the many, not the few.

The White House has been caught.
The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.
In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

We will establish the truth over the UK’s complicity in genocide - and we will bring about justice for the Palestinian people.

It is unacceptable that two British MPs have been denied entry to the West Bank.
For Palestinians, this kind of authoritarian treatment is a daily reality.
That reality is called apartheid — and our government is enabling it.
