Why aren’t liberal academics and journalism critics — who constantly lecture us about the press giving Trump a “free pass” and “anticipatory obedience” — bothered by Sam Husseini getting dragged out of a State Department briefing for asking tough questions? www.newsweek.com/sam-husseini...
Video shows journalist forcibly removed from Blinken's last news conference
Sam Husseini was grabbed by security members and escorted out of the room.

Maybe so many members of Congress think the stock market is an accurate reflection of the economy because they spend so much time trading stocks.

Prohibiting members of Congress from trading stock is a total no brainer.

My take on all the Trump genuflection:

Once you have convinced yourself you can stay silent on a genocide unfolding live on your phone, you can stay silent/make peace with pretty much anything.

Israel has blown a massive hole in our moral universe and now pretty anything can drive through it.
For @theguardian.com I wrote about how Gaza has split the academic field of genocide studies.

As one scholar put it, “Where can the field stand if scholars from within and around it are unwilling to call the behaviour out?”

My latest.

Defining genocide: how a rift over Gaza sparked a crisis among scholars
New reports by human rights groups use the term to describe Israel’s offensive. The debate has fueled a brutal division among those who study mass violence

NEW: Human rights organization Amnesty International has released a 296-page report concluding that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza.

The group joins Holocaust historians, United Nations experts, and a growing number of nations worldwide in doing so.

Γλυτώσαμε νέα #Τέμπη ΑΠΟΚΛΕΙΣΤΙΚΑ γιατί ο οδηγός ... ψυλλιάστηκε ότι κάτι δεν πάει καλά.

ΓΙΑΤΙ ΤΟ ΥΠΟΨΙΑΣΤΗΚΕ.

Χώρια που γλυτώνουμε όλο παρα τρίχα, καταλαβαίνουμε με τι ψυχολογία πρέπει να οδηγούν αυτοί οι άνθρωποι; Για να μην σκοτώσουν και να μην σκοτωθούν;

ΡΕ, ΤΟ ΚΑΤΑΛΑΒΑΙΝΟΥΜΕ ΑΥΤΟ;
Πάλι από τύχη δεν θρηνήσαμε ζωές πάνω στις ράγες. Ελεος!
