"According to HRC, the organization will also focus efforts in California, Texas, New York, and Delaware to support LGBTQ+ congressional candidates. The organization says that HRC has had year-round staff in these states since 2017 and will bring on additional staff to organize for the upcoming election."
Iran carries out more recorded executions of women than any other country, many such convicts are victims of forced or abusive marriages.
Iran last year carried out more hangings than in any year since 2015, according to NGOs, which accuse the Islamic republic of using capital punishment as a means to instil fear in the wake of protests ..
"The silence of the international community is unacceptable,"
The executed are the poor and marginalised of Iranian society..
"..holy shit. there it is, in black and white — when Team Trump needed someone to put a happy face on whatever evil shit they were up to, they went running to Maggie Haberman."
"...a mob boss tells his fixer to get in touch with their favorite mouthpiece in the press, to tell her to “start writing.” .. this was actually happening in the White House — and in the Times’ newsroom — in 2018."
Can the Pulitzer Prize be rescinded? Can you believe this traitorous bitch? NYTs totally fixed the 2016 election to make sure the traitorous scumbag #DonTheCon won. 🤬 I had read she is very good friends with Jared and Vanky.
Nope. The game was to take the legs out from under team MTG, its a cutthroat strategy & I believe Jeffries is playing the only game he has at the moment. I never will doubt the best interests of Hakeem Jeffries. Never.
Not if the only move you have is to pick off one at a time. I doubt Hakeem had an abundance of chouces.
Pity that Voters couldn't look past their single issue, to foresee the collective damage of handing our House majority to this rotten bunch.
@lin11c thanks.
Garland & Smith go back a long way.
I'm sure seeing the magnitude of crime that occurred during just 4 yrs of Trump required the best in the business. Someone with equal knowledge of international criminal orgs. Smith was who Garland called. Its the stacking of the judicial deck that has put a stranglehold on every move Smith makes from bottom to the SC.
Precarious spot they're in, any questionable move will open the case to be tossed.
Truth is, no one has any idea what AG Garland encountered when he took up the task of digging thru the vast crime scene & umpeeling the layers left by Trump's 4 years. He could trust no one but his own closest hires.
UN General Assembly Adopts Resolution Supporting Palestinian Statehood. The measure declares that Palestinians qualify for full-member status, a largely symbolic move that reflects the growing isolation of IL.
How does the Israeli AMB to the UN react:
"Gilad Erdan used a paper shredder to shred the UN charter on the podium of the UN general assembly ahead of a vote that will give new privileges to the Palestinians at the UN."
-B Ravid
UN should clean up their UNRWA laundy mat while they're at it.
US has given half a billion a year, its largetst donor, to UNWRA for aid to improve the lives of Palestinians of Gaza, only to find out UNWRA routed the aid funds to Iran's terrorist Hamas, to build military tunnels, stock weapons & run terrorist ops within the populated cities instead, against Israel, the only free society in the Arab region for years.
Israeli #warcrimes, Palestinians abused in detention💔:
MIL base -now doubles as a detention center in IL’s Negev desert: Rows of men in gray tracksuits seen sitting on paper-thin mattresses, ringfenced by barbed wire -blindfolded -heads hanging heavy under the glare of floodlights.
"What is the man vs bear question?
The question, directed towards women, seems simple: Would you rather be alone in the woods with a man or a bear? While there's no unanimous answer, a good number of women on TikTok, Instagram and X have made it clear they'd prefer the bear."
"The goal is to destroy Gaza: Why Israel rejects a ceasefire with Hamas"
"For many analysts, the Israeli govt message is clear: there will be no permanent ceasefire, & the war on Gaza will continue.
This proves "Israel was not really negotiating in good faith. The moment Hamas agreed to a deal, Israel was willing to blow that up by [going into] Rafah.The goal is to destroy Gaza in its totality." ~ analyst Omar Rahman
"The Biden admin has said a major invasion would be a red line -noting that it could result in more civilian deaths. Aid groups -already having difficulty distributing much needed aid to the >1.4M ppl -current fighting: killed dozens of people in the last 24 hrs -more robust IDF presence now. 2 brigades, one’s a specialist in tunnels & the other one were the perpetrators of the WCK incident. Those are the 2 brigades operating now & in South Rafa."
I'm livid, I understand #MAGAMike's motive, but Min. Ldr McConnell shouldn't question Pres Biden as he finally limits arms to IL bc of the famine in Gaza & #domicide, meaning, that the Palestinians have nowhere safe to go: their homes, bus'... destroyed💔. It should be bc of credible #warcrimes, #IHL... The #ICC is considering issuing arrest warrants for Netanyahu & other top IL officials for alleged war crimes, incl. genocide, incitement to genocide, & the crime of apartheid123.
Nope. Not unless the ICC holds Iran's terrorist Hamas & their leader Sinwar equally , as well.
Sinwar's Hamas had duty to shelter the hostages they stole & the Gazan's he willfully kept in harms way, when IDF retaliated for the brutality of the long plotted invasion on Oct 7th.
Sinwar knew & wanted IDF to hit back & come for his "Human shields. Bargaining chips."
He had a duty to see to the safety of all innocents that he held in harms way.
That too is a war crime.
"If #Biden continues his current course, extraction of the lithium, copper, cobalt, nickel, graphite, and manganese vital for a green-energy transition will come at the cost of Indigenous lands and trust... it could also cost Biden the election."
What about the Green New Deal demographic. They stop using their lithium battery ohones & devices? They stop prormoting battery run EV cars to replace gas engines?
Can't have it both wsys. Its one or the other until a better battety source is develiped & put to use.
I would like an snswer from the GND/Save the Planet, No more Oil demographic, to this dilemma we face.
Absolutely honoring their just efforts, but this is a downside the world also must face.
i have no idea who the " colonizers" are nor why the word is suddenly the go-to social media accusation word of the day.
Back to the topic.
You don't know who 'those people' are?
The cause promoted & brought to light is spot on & just.
The issue is that lithium mined to make the batteries that run devices & cars for a cleaner greener planet runs smack into the dirty mining business, same as the dirty oil business.
What's the solution so we stop repeating the same mistakes.
Biden admin: current positions presented by Israel & Hamas allow the gaps in hostage deal & #ceasefire negotiations to be closed & put a deal within reach -WH SPOX Kirby.
A deal wold lead in the 1st phase to the humanitarian release of up to 33 hostages held by Hamas in Gaza in return for up to 42 days of ceasefire & the release of about 800 PA prisoners.
Kirby: after assessing the positions of thinks they can close the remaining gaps.
@KimPerales
sounds like Hamas gets the deal of s lifetime.
"We'll trade you 33 hostages for 800 prisoners". Who btw, are hardly on the same level of innocence as the people Hamas stole on Oct 7 2023.
Let's hear what israel's offer is now.
Same thing they've been asking for 7 months.
"Return all the hostages. Alive or dead."
That 's the value Hamas puts on all human life.
We welcome the effort, but we'd like to hear more about the deterrence & aid plans from the Biden admin bc there's a famine, humanitarian aid: slowed, there's no where safe for the Palestinians to go, war crimes: unaddressed...
"US concerns over ILs Gaza policy led to weapons holdup.
The Biden admin is holding up shipments of 2 types of Boeing-made precision bombs to send a pol message to Israel."
I find it telling that at NO time in this whole 7 month tragedy, not ONE oil rich neighboring country lent resources to move the people of Gaza out of harms way, as with every request & warning, Hamas refused to do the one single thing asked of them.
Return all the stolen hostages.
No one made a move on behalf of the starving, homeless innocents, including Hamas, who simply kicked the can further down the road.
“Despite children dying from starvation & famine in Gaza, the Israeli authorities are still blocking aid critical for the survival of Gaza’s population. in defiance of the World Court,” said Omar Shakir -HRW. “With each day that Israeli authorities block lifesaving aid, more Palestinians are at risk of dying.”
For the past 7 months, Israel asked ONE thing of Hamas.
Return the prople they stole on Oct 7 2023.
They have refused everytime. Human life to terrorists are merely cash in their bank acct to trade for something they want.
"33 Israeli hostages for 100 of their militants held in Israeli prisons."
