"Liberals" and "Centrists" who ensured Trump's return are attacking people who BEGGED Biden/Harris to offer a bold alternative to fascism and genocide. They're GLOATING about the looming horrors. Rotten to the core, mirrors of their MAGA partners.

During the Iraq war/GWOT, the U.S. attacked Al Jazeera relentlessly, bombed its facilities, killed its Baghdad correspondent and locked a cameraman in Guantanamo. Israel has repeated this pattern. All journalists must condemn these violent assaults on freedom of the press.

Last spring, Washington state passed a bill banning commercial octopus farming.
Today, we (myself and 99 others, led by Jennifer Jacquet, Becca Franks, Peter Godfrey-Smith, and Walter Sanchez-Suarez) have a letter in Science supporting the US OCTOPUS Act, which would do the same nationwide.

What’s great about Biden is that he’s mentally fit enough to lie about his role in supporting the first genocide in world history we’ve been able to ceaselessly monitor on our phones.
“President Joe Biden, who has pledged support for Israel amid the country’s ongoing war with Hamas that has left more than 37,000 Palestinians dead, claimed in a recent interview that he’s “the guy that did more for the Palestinian community than anybody.””
