Aid Groups Blame Israel’s Gaza Restrictions for ‘Mass Starvation’

The distance between what is in happening Gaza, fully backed with US dollars and political support, and the reaction of American politicians who by and large just don’t seem to care or support it is just completely brain-breaking.

We should be preparing for climate change, not reacting to disasters.

For those outside NYC, Brad Lander isn’t just a mayor candidate, he’s also the NYC Comptroller—the chief financial officer and auditor of the biggest city in the country.

E.P.A. Plans to Reconsider a Ban on Cancer-Causing Asbestos

Inasmuch as the Trump admin has any consistent tactical approach to policy, I think they just get up in the morning and say to themselves, what’s the most evil, destructive, and stupid thing I could do today? Then they do it. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/16/u...

COLE ESCOLA BEST ACTOR - so, beyond deserved. #tonyawards

“Cole Escola! You have taught me to make what you love not what you think people want to see” - Sam Pinkleton accepting best director for one of the funniest plays I’ve ever seen, Oh Mary. #TonyAwards

I don't care if these monstrous ICE raids are a "federal operation". This is authoritarian violence, plain and simple.

Just because Stephen Miller has kidnapping quotas for brown people he doesn't want to see on the street doesn't mean we have to think it's okay.

After that? I’m not sure. But she had so many basic, smart insights - that we need another Edward R Murrow, another watergate moment - the other panelists seemed a little offended by the overall indictment of cable news

Connie Chung speaking simple truth on this journalist’s panel on CNN - the issue is that “Networks were taken over by corporations which were just plain greedy” #CNN #GoodNightAndGoodLuck

A New Hampshire man with a green card was detained by immigration officers at Logan Airport and is being held by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement at the Donald W. Wyatt detention facility in Central Falls, Rhode Island. Fabian Schmidt’s family said they are unsure of why he is being held. They said he has a recently renewed green card, and no active issues in court. Schmidt had been visiting Luxembourg and flew back to the U.S. on Friday. His partner had gone to pick him up at Logan Airport, and waited four hours before calling authorities. “It was just said that his green card was flagged,” said Astrid Senior, his mother. She said she didn’t hear from her son directly until Tuesday, when she learned he’d been hospitalized. Senior described Schmidt being “violently interrogated” at Logan Airport for hours, and being stripped naked, put in a cold shower by two officials, and being put back onto a chair. She said Schmidt told her immigration agents pressured him to give up his green card. She said he was placed on a mat in a bright room with other people at the airport, with little food or water, suffered sleep deprivation, and was denied access to his medication for anxiety and depression.

This is a deliberate effort to erase history, to pretend these heroes never existed, and to push the military backward. We should all be furious.

I had missed Slotkin’s response last night, but one of my kids sent it to me this morning because it is spreading on TikTok. This is about the best rebuttal I can remember. A star is born!
