Usually when law-enforcement officers arrest adults and they know there are children involved. They have CPS on standby to handle the children. They don’t just throw the children in jail too.

🚨"We will come get you and arrest you," -ICE agents threaten over megaphone after swarming a Minneapolis protester they claimed "blinded them" by...pointing a tiny flashlight at them. WE'RE LIVE NOW ⬇️

this is all to say that should democrats win the house and senate this november, they should hold similarly dramatic — which is to say televised and highly publicized — hearings on the conduct of ICE and CBP, with testimony from victims. we want as much of *this* as possible in the record. (3/?)

In the past few weeks, the former Israeli prime minister Ehud Olmert has referred to "ethnic cleansing" and "concentration camps" in Gaza, while a former Israeli Attny Gen, a former Israeli general, and one of Israel's most famous authors, have all said it's a genocide in Gaza.

Look at this child. I dare you.

Hundreds of malnourished Palestinians in Gaza have been scrambling to grab desperately-needed aid in the Israeli-besieged enclave.

NYT: Israeli military officials have admitted they never found evidence that Hamas systematically stole U.N. aid—despite using that claim to starve Gaza.

Everything in Gaza is suffering. Every man, woman, and child. Every hospital, every home, every school. Even the animals — starved, burned, abandoned. Israel’s and the U.S.’s genocide isn't just against Palestinians. It’s against all life.

Palestinian activist and participant in the Oscar-winning film, No Other Land, Odeh Hadalin was shot in the chest and killed by an Israeli settler in the Occupied West Bank. The shooter, Yinon Levi, has been under sanctions by both the EU and the US.

The former Attorney General of Israel, Michael Benyair is now calling Israel's actions in Gaza genocide. "To eternal shame. Jews, who suffered a genocide 80 years ago, are committing genocide in Gaza. Shame, rage, and sorrow"

Israeli attacks continue with at least 12 Palestinians killed since dawn across the Gaza Strip, medical sources say.

Yesterday I got hacked and robbed. This morning, I received this message on my phone: "Your $2,500 can be returned — but only if you stop reporting on Palestine. There are plenty of other things you could focus on. Keep digging into this, and it won’t just be your money at risk."

💙🐈🐈‍⬛💙 Take heed to this warning. Bonhoeffer was a pastor, theologian and anti-Nazi dissident. His resistance to the Nazi dictatorship, opposition to Nazi euthanasia program and genocide of Jews led to his imprisonment, in 1945, He was stripped nude led into a court yard with no witnesses and hanged.

“…cuts will lead to 12.5–17.9 million cases of malaria…an additional 71,000–166,000 deaths annually…28 to 32 percent increase in tuberculosis globally…additional 200,000 paralytic polio cases a year and in a potential worst-case scenario, over “28,000 cases of Ebola, Marburg, or related diseases.”

…

All we want is healthcare.

Big point that is being missed: without the insurrection act, the activated Guard troops are now federal army and cannot Do law enforcement. Period

Alex Lawson to Rep. Miller-Meeks: Last time you spoke with us you lied to our face and said you wouldn’t vote for Medicaid cuts, but you’ve voted for the largest cuts in the history of the country. Do you have any comment on the health care that 67,000 people in your district are going to lose?

"Multiple sources told CNN that as Hegseth has grown increasingly paranoid about the potential of leaks to the media within the Pentagon and has begun largely depending on a small circle for counsel, including his wife..." www.cnn.com/2025/04/23/p...

The thing is….pictures like this one existed decades ago. You’re telling me the FBI didn’t know about this activity? Yeah. Bullshit. People not only gave him a pass, but they concealed what they knew.

JUST IN: The ACLU has added Andry Hernandez Romero, the openly gay barber/makeup artist, as lead plaintiff in its D.C.-based class action against the Alien Enemies Act. They say the US has "constructive custody" over those held in El Salvador. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Trump has ordered the US government to move forward with plans to mine the ocean floor an area nearly every other country considers off-limits to industrial exploitation. His executive order sidesteps a decades-old international treaty ratified by every major coastal nation except the United States.

The EPA is firing employees focused on children’s health simply because their job descriptions include DEI. These 10 regional children’s health coordinators have worked closely with schools and local institutions to prevent and address environmental hazards that put kids at risk.

For years, I’ve called for making high-quality generic drugs here at home so we’re not reliant on foreign countries for access to medication. @smith.senate.gov and I have a bill to make life-saving drugs in the United States.
