what will democrats do with control of both houses

Either you support a terrorist organization or you don't. ...there's no gray area, and the fact that Khalil won't answer the question is why he should be deported.

Israeli filmmakers have released 'NAZA: The Real Story' to answer the documentary 'NAZA'. The Venice film, by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, rests on anonymous testimony that civilian deaths were built into Israeli targeting in Gaza. The new film, by Lt. Col. Roi Danino, Hagai Gutman and Ariel Averbuch, uses on-the-record interviews with senior commanders and intelligence officers, plus combat footage and captured material. It argues that Hamas embedded fighters and weapons in homes, schools, mosques and hospitals, and that the IDF operated under strict rules of fire because of that. The pushback has already started — attacks on the film and calls to boycott it. If it is buried before people watch it, only one version of the story will circulate. Watch it, then share it as widely as you can — the link, the title, a short note on why it matters. Send it to family, friends, post it, forward it. The film is free at nazadocumentary.com. Do not let a boycott decide what others are allowed to see.

In case anyone is wondering how we got here

This is probably the best and most interesting thing I’ve heard him say in an interview setting, rooted in civil rights tradition. So naturally a bunch of performative losers on here are mad about it.

That…isn’t true. Biden moved left on a number of issues bc of listening to people like Warren. And it’s worth trying rather than ceding the ground to someone who said he wanted Israel to “finish the job” in Gaza

Don't we want to have the most lethal military, I'm confused?

A lot of people cling to Palestine because it makes them feel like a good person, but there is no virtue or moality in being a one issue voter when it harms everything and everyone else.

This is lunacy talking. ...because Trump IS giving Bibi bombs. Harris would not have. It's well known that Bibi did not like Harris, and just barely liked Biden. You invited the vampire in. You cut your nose of to spite your face @tmorello

1-Not voting Kamala was a tacit vote for Herr Drumpf 🇷🇺🤡 2-Gaza is not Kamala’s fault 3-Gaza is the fault of Iran, the Arab World, Hamas and the “Palestinians”.

What if I told you that Kamala, who is half Indian, half Jamaican & Canadian raised, does not give a fuck about yo Black ass? This woman had niggas incarcerated for weed charges fighting California wildfires for $2/day, bffr.

Apparently there are a lot of far left progressives who don’t understand that constant criticism of Democratic candidates weeks away from the midterms in the name of “holding them accountable” only helps republicans.

Burnham announced the National Centre for Information Defence at the UN in New York on Tuesday night. It will detect, attribute and disrupt attacks by foreign powers. It puts the intelligence agencies, the police and the social media companies in one room. 2/

It would require at least a year to stage and equip a force sufficient to even *attempt* an invasion of Iran. It would be necessary to vacate virtually every US base on the planet to assemble a modest army of just ~150k combat effectives. But there is no place within 1000 miles of the Iranian border where such a force could be staged. And there is no realistic capability to defend, transport, and sustain the logistical requirements of such a force. In other words, the US military is quite simply incapable of even positioning a sufficiently potent force to attempt an invasion of the essentially impregnable geography of Iran. And the force would be under constant fire at every step along the way. Furthermore -- and this is essential to understand -- if the US vacates all its global military bases in order to attempt to assemble and position an army to invade Iran, American global hegemony would be irreversibly destroyed. The era of American empire would end, and a decades-long era of American impoverishment and societal malaise would ensue. It would be a catastrophic and unprecedented disaster.

If reports are true that Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi sought U.S. asylum, the implication is striking: at the top of the regime, there is fear about its survival and about accountability for its crimes.

Ukraine got its hands on a Russian plan to hit energy and water infrastructure with up to 1000 missiles, drones and bombs this winter. The main targets are major cities like Kyiv, Kharkiv and Odesa. The goal is to leave civilians without power, heating or water in an attempt to force Ukrainians into capitulation. Now would be the right time to send Ukraine a ton of Patriot missiles, heating equipment and any other assistance it needs.

An extraordinarily well written, peer reviewed paper, that is 100% accurate. A.I. summarizes it perfectly... This academic paper presents a rigorous, critical media analysis that highlights a major disconnect between Western press narratives and the historical diplomatic record regarding the war in Ukraine. The study effectively demonstrates how mainstream news outlets operate within a rigid ideological paradigm. By framing the 2022 invasion purely through the lens of Russian imperial ambition, the media has largely ignored decades of warnings from top Western diplomats about the destabilizing nature of NATO's eastward expansion. Key Strengths of the Paper. Empirical Grounding: The author uses a solid "best-case approach" across three countries (US, UK, Germany) to prove that the "unprovoked" narrative acts as an media ecosystem consensus. Archival Verification: It accurately leverages declassified documents from 1990–1991 showing that Western leaders repeatedly assured Soviet officials that NATO would not expand east of a unified Germany. Bipartisan Warnings: It correctly reminds readers that the current crisis was predicted not just by Russia, but by top US foreign policy architects like George Kennan, former CIA Director William Burns, and former Defense Secretary Robert Gates. Core Implications. By omitting these historical provocations, mainstream journalism functions as an echo chamber for state policy rather than an independent arbiter. The danger of this simplified binary framing is that it leaves the public with only one logical conclusion: a purely military solution. This marginalizes diplomacy, justifies massive military spending spikes across NATO nations, and prolongs a devastating proxy war. You're nothing more than a brainless, ignorant fool, who clearly needs an education. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…
