Anyone even casually familiar with right-wing Zionism knows that support for the Jews is purely instrumental—a belief it’s necessary for the coming of the Messiah. Right-wing Zionist Jews certainly knew and exploited this. Now they’ve discovered how thin that support is. No one should be surprised.
What’s happening at Heritage:
Right-wing Jews at Heritage are leaving because they have realized that the Christians at Heritage are antisemitic—despite the rightwing Heritage support for Israel, and the nominal stop antisemitism efforts like Project Esther.

White men are 30% of the population.

They are also:

- 98% of presidents
- 90% of CEOs
- 90% of billionaires
- 80% of Congress

Woman comes to US at age 6. Graduates nursing school. Work permit. No criminal record. Snatched and imprisoned by ICE for 6 months now. About to be forced back to Honduras. A life destroyed and one less nurse. Merry Christmas.

“it’s reasonable to ask questions about trans girls in sports” was always intended to mainstream transphobia.

It’s absurd that people fell for it. Democrats are constantly letting oppressors set the terms of debate instead of just saying “no, fuck you.”

Aw, for fuck sake… This administration is full of absolute nimnuls.
Exclusive: The Trump administration is moving to dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado, according to a senior White House official, taking aim at one of the world's leading climate research labs.

How did we get an Armada into the Amazon? I would think that it would be very difficult to navigate through the jungle…
Trump: "Venezuela is completely surrounded by the largest Armada ever assembled ... It will only get bigger, and the shock to them will be like nothing they have ever seen before — Until such time as they return to the USA all of the Oil, Land, and other Assets that they previously stole from us."

I will leave it here: The editorial does not accurately describe disparate impact liability, which is a way to smoke out hidden discrimination by ensuring that a policy with discriminatory effects is actually justified. The remaining errors flow from the false characterization of this doctrine.

It's been truly remarkable to see the grand jury system actually act as a real line of defense.

Especially since--as I bet most non-lawyers don't know--the only legal person in the GJ room is the prosecutor: no defense, no judge.

There is NO place more favorable to the state. And they keep losing.
JUST IN: Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeffrey Snell just confirmed, at the prodding of U.S. Magistrate Judge Keri Holleb Hotaling, that this motion for dismissal followed a "no bill" from a grand jury.

That means the grand jury refused to indict.
U.S. prosecutors in Chicago are dropping another case tied to Operation Midway Blitz, "without prejudice."

It's USA v. Nathan Griffin. Below is the motion, followed by excerpts from the complaint.

The feds don't say why they're dropping it, but they had until today to secure an indictment.

ICE’s acting director ordered a Boston Catholic parish to tear down its Advent Nativity scene—stripped of baby Jesus and branded with the message “ICE WAS HERE.” The parish priest is refusing, citing he pope’s call to stand with migrants. It's another chapter in Kristi Noem's war on Christians.
“ICE Was Here”: Pope Leo-Inspired Nativity Scene Sparks MAGA Outrage
A Nativity scene missing Jesus — and marked with an “ICE was here” sign — has triggered cries of “politicizing Christmas.” The parish priest says he’s answering Pope Leo's call to welcome stranger.

The best political interviewers in Britain and Europe treat questioning like a point in tennis - you keep hitting until the exchange is resolved.

Nearly all American interviewers treat a question like a penalty kick in soccer - you have one shot, and if the interviewee deflects, that's it.

At some level, they can't have been surrendering, because they didn't know they were in a war.
NEW info on shipwreck attack. It gets worse.

The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead.

"Some of the people viewing the video thought ... could have been an attempt to surrender"

Others "said the most logical explanation was ... signaling for a rescue."

Apart from from horror for … everything this administration is doing, it’s embarrassing to be associated, as an American, with statements like this:

““The United States of America has never been more respected or successful than it is now under President Trump’s historic leadership.”

The second strike was murder. The first strike was murder.
These men were not engaged in hostilities when they were clinging to debris. They were not engaged in hostilities when they were on the boat. There was no armed attack. There was no immediate threat. There is no armed conflict. Just summary execution from the skies.

Here we go -a few reminders to those covering this:

- These are killings outside of armed conflict
- There is no self-defense justification for the killings
- That makes them extrajudicial killings under int'l law; murder under domestic law
- No label ("narcoterrorist" or "DTO") changes any of that
