New York 'buffer' bills part of wider crackdown on leftist protests
Local bills aim to quash protests against illegal land sales at synagogues, while Trump administration targets organizers using FACE Act.
"If you don't want to have protests at houses of worship, don't organize sales of stolen Palestinian land, which are illegal, in houses of worship."
"It's that simple."

While spending billions on Iran war, Trump quietly moves to boot millions more off food aid
"Americans can't afford their groceries, they can't afford their medicine, they can't afford the cost of living, and yet we're dropping a billion dollars of bombs, it seems, every day in Iran," said one Senate Democrat.
"Trump administration is quietly pursuing a regulatory change that would strip federal nutrition assistance from an estimated 6 million low-income Americansโincluding nearly two million childrenโas it spends billions on an illegal, open-ended war on Iran."

This is crucially important point.
1) "No quarter" is indeed specifically war-crime term
2) Under Geneva Conventions, after sinking an enemy ship, the attackers must "take all positive measures" to find and rescue any survivors. Text in next post
No evidence US sub did so after attack, AFAIK

Sorry to say it but Biden funded and supported Israelโs Genocide leading us directly to where we are now. Him and Antony Blinken both should both face tribunals as well.

It must be so weird to be a right wing guy that thought you were supposed to hate pedophiles and war with Iran and now youโve just learned that to remain in the group you need to love pedophiles and war with Iran.

Judge Orders Colorado to Stop Throwing Prisoners in Solitary for Refusing to Work
Years after voters amended the state's constitution to ban forced labor in prison, a court ruling could finally make Colorado change how prison guards "compel and coerce" work.
"Nadia Reed refused to work for two days."
She was "confined to her cell alone for 23 hours a day for 30 days."
A judge "banned the state from punishing work refusal with" extended solitary confinement.

A lot of liberals try to tell themselves that Trump is an aberration from the American timeline, when in reality he is the apotheosis of that legacy.
He and the squad of morally void fuckboys in the executive branch are the most honest reflection of what the US always was.

Respectfully, eat shit. Those kids were expelled, arrested, and targeted relentlessly by their school administrations with the specific goal of preventing further protest. Eighteen year old kids were held down and maced by campus security, hit point blank with tear gas canisters by riot cops.

You were ok with people being gruesomely slaughtered in Palestine with your dollars as long as you felt you would be fine, & you thought their being slaughtered was a price you could pay to keep what you believed was a democracy, which was not a democracy when only slaughter was on the table.
