A response to a white supremacist who called me a "filthy Muslim and ni**er" on Twitter, and Twitter approved it as in compliance with its terms of service.

Last week I argued before my city council that we must divest from Israel & refusal will result in the killing of innocent Palestinian lives.

The Rafah massacre killing 32 babies is exactly what will continue to happen if we don't divest Now.

90 U.S. Cities divested from apartheid South Africa & pressured the federal govt to act. Use my comments as a template for your city council. ❤️✊🏽

Just to be explicitly clear.

After Israel condemned the ICC for accusing them of deliberately targeting civilians, Israel forced Palestinians into a safe zone where they wouldn't be bombed—then Israel bombed & killed 32 children in that safe zone.

They burned Palestinians alive. On purpose.

ICC: Prosecute these war crimes.

German Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck loudly condemns Israel:

"The famine, the suffering of the Palestinians, the attacks in the Gaza Strip are incompatible with international law. It is indeed the case that Israel has crossed a line there, and it must not do so.”

How much longer will the United States allow itself to become isolated for the sake of Israeli war crimes?

The people outraged over the fabricated story of 40 beheaded babies last October seem to have nothing to say about the horrifying reality of beheaded Palestinian babies in Rafah happening right now & committed by the Israeli military.

Deadly hypocrisy beyond the pale of humanity. I’m beyond disgusted at our failed media and politics not just for letting this happen, but for enabling it and funding it.

Today is the 100 year anniversary that the US Govt enacted the Immigration Act of 1924—banning all immigration from Asia, while allowing effectively open borders for white European migrants.

Make no mistake. The current anti-immigrant movement is inspired by the same white supremacist policies. Allowing them to be successful will set our nation back generations.

DOD reports 0 of 569 metric tons of aid has reached starving Palestinians

US officials confirm it’s not being blocked by Hamas. But we know Israeli settlers are blocking the aid.

When Yemenis blocked ships to prevent genocide they were bombed . When Israelis block aid to enable famine they’re ignored.

The white supremacy in our foreign policy is deadly.

Alito flew the flag upside down & Thomas’s wife supported the insurrection

Trump says "stand back and stand by" & now signals “reich” propaganda

Every GOP leader refuses to say they’ll accept the 2024 election results

Under GOP, the judicial, the executive, & the legislative are all aligned to end what’s left of American democracy

To recap so far:
•ICJ orders Israel to cease all military operations in Rafah
•ICC presses forward on war crimes charges against Israeli PM
•US State Dept reports Israeli military used US weapons in violation of int’l law
•NYT & NBC report IDF targeted civilians
•Dozens of NGOs demand ceasefire & diplomacy

If international rules based order has any meaning, then the above must matter. The above must be acted upon. And those yet silent are complicit, and history will remember them accordingly.

As you watch Justice Thomas and Alito explicitly endorse racism and gerrymandering, and even go as far as to slam the Brown v Board ruling—a reminder that this corruption is who SCOTUS has always been.

Why we must divest from funding the siege on Gaza. My remarks before my city council last week make the argument historically, contemporarily, and looking towards the future—as the right and moral thing to do.

Louisiana legislature approves bill classifying abortion pills as controlled dangerous substances & the craziest thing about this is the GOP Rep who sponsored the bill did so b/c his ex-brother-in-law slipped abortion pills to his sister (in TX) w/o her knowledge—& wants to ensure it never happens again.

So—because one conservative extremist husband abused his wife—all women have to suffer?😐

This absurd bill will kill women, all thanks to the party of small Govt & personal responsibility. smh.

Spot The Difference—NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on
•Butker in 2024: "We have 3,000+ players. They have a diversity of opinions & thoughts just like America does. That's something we treasure & that's part of ultimately what makes us as a society better."

•Kaepernick in 2017: "We believe everyone should stand for the National Anthem. We want to honor our flag & our country & our fans expect that of us. The Anthem controversy is a barrier to having honest conversations & making real progress."

GOP held countless hearings to dissect every aspect of Hunter Biden's life—an unelected person with zero power—because they could.

Meanwhile Alito has the literal power to undermine the Constitution—& is out here proclaiming Viva Insurrection—and Dems can't be bothered to even wag a finger.😐

Just beyond infuriating.

First the upside down flag
Now the insurrection flag

My OpEd shows how this corruption is how SCOTUS has always been—and why the only way to save our democracy is to expand the court and impeach corrupt justices like Alito and Thomas

Today, Ireland, Norway, and Spain announced their recognition of Palestine as an independent state—a decision that will formally take effect on May 28. Two thirds of UN Member States already recognize Palestine as a sovereign state.

The US Govt has claimed to work towards a Palestinian state for 76 years but has failed.

The Israeli Govt is publicly declaring they will never recognize a Palestinian state.

The UN must step in & recognize Palestine for the sake of justice.

It is long past time.

Trump is running for POTUS on “unified Reich,” so where is the loud GOP Speaker condemnation of this pro Nazism?🤔

The GOP message is clear: Antisemitism is OK if it gets us votes, but weaponized when we can use it to attack our opponents.

Just as horrifying—Trump knows elevating Nazism elevates his stature in the GOP, & gains him more votes than it might lose him.

If legacy media held accountable those in power, they’d require every Republican to answer if they support Trump’s pro Nazi view.

It's not just Republicans in states like like New Hampshire & Missouri who are trying to protect child marriage.

The United States has a child marriage epidemic, and it's worse than you think.
