Israel and Hamas agree to first phase of Trump's Gaza ceasefire plan
The deal announced by Trump was short on detail and left many unresolved questions that could still lead to its collapse, as has happened with previous peace efforts. Hamas confirmed it had reached an agreement including a hostage-prisoner exchange.

This is more than “harassment,” Governor. This is the definition of domestic terrorism. ICE likely violated the 4th amendment rights of every tenant in that building.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

Dave Chappelle in particular shld be shamed 4 his set at the Riyadh festival. He walked off his show, cost folks their jobs & broke a $50M contract b/c he felt disrespected by Comedy Central & others as a Black man. But other oppressed PoC, “who THEY?!!”

Not 2 mention that he didn’t need the $$.

In an era where comedians who once whined abut "cancel culture" because "you can't joke about anything anymore" happily perform muzzled in Riyadh and ICE casually shoots journalists in LA and Chicago and assaults others in NYC, it's important to remember Jamal Khashoggi. Great work from Karen

Buried lede: former US Atty Patrick Fitzgerald is a Jonin ninja w/a law degree.

James Comey hiring Fitzgerald as his lawyer is the white elite equivalent of him saying to Trump, Bondi, etc. “You fucked w/the wrong n****r.”

If they had a right-wing, “tough-on-crime” coded mayor there would be endless national profiles about him and how he finally brought sanity back to Chicago.

Now that summer is over, Chicago is still on track to have fewer homicides in 2025 than almost any other year since 2001. This is especially impressive considering that the five most violent years of the 21st century have all been in the past decade.
