BREAKING: A new Gaza solidarity encampment is being built at Yale, one year after dozens were arrested here. They demand immediate divestment from Israeli weapons manufacturing.

Despite the Trump admin abducting activists like Mahmoud Khalil nationwide, hundreds of are here anyway.

Columbia continues to destroy itself in the malign and stupid effort to hang on to Zionist and federal money (which it doesn't really need).

Today's slaughter includes the expulsion of the president of the grad worker union. A day before bargaining is due to begin.

If Schumer votes for cloture and there’s not a leadership challenge the Dems are genuinely cooked. They’re never going to raise another dime from people who understand that this is an emergency.
There are centrist Dems who dislike party leadership because they're venal careerists and the olds aren't letting go of their positions. There are progressive Dems who dislike party leadership substantively. Remarkable there hasn't been a convergence to sweep Schumer and the rest out by now.

I saw student protesters in encampments — yeah the ones adults demonized so much — offer a highly organized model for support, mutual aid.

People brought in food and water. Students organized shelter, first aid, and even educational opportunities.

We have models for how to sustain each other.
Everyone is trying to hold onto their jobs, even though what's needed is an immediate and protracted general strike and spending freeze. Not a day or a single day -- tools down for months... and that would mean we'd all lose our jobs and most of us would face food and housing insecurity.

The NYT is single-handedly responsible for one of the foundational lies that was used to justify the genocide of Palestinians: ‘Screams without words’.

Between that & this, it really should end any discussion about the breadth of *intentional complicity* in genocide manufacturing by the NYT.

From the top of the Biden administration, women have facilitated Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

More than 20 people with conscience resigned from the Biden administration over the genocide in Gaza. These women chose to be complicit.

Our work is not done!

A ceasefire is only the most important first step to end the genocide against the 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza.

I talked to the Black residents of Altadena who say they’ve lost everything but hope.

“When you escape tragedy, you say, ‘it could have got me.’ It didn’t. So I’m going to keep on going,” said 83-year-old Walt Butler.
Black residents mourn lost homes, history as wildfires scorch Altadena
“All that stuff that you thought was so important can be gone in five minutes.”
