AI has brought so much joy and cultural vitality (or some simulation thereof) to the very stupidest Americans. You almost can’t be mad at it.

The “ceasefire” is: escalate mass murder in the West Bank while you merely pause the genocide in Gaza.

Israel is continuing to shoot and kill Palestinians in Gaza. Imagine the reaction if Qassam Brigades ambushed Israeli forces. Israel has made very clear it does not respect this agreement.
🚨NEWS: Israeli forces have shot eight Palestinian civilians in Rafah today, @muhammadshehad2 reports.
Separately this morning, one person was killed and three others injured by the explosion of an object left behind by the IDF, also in Rafah.
Footage from southern Gaza today shows a man attempting to avoid Israeli gunfire while trying to retrieve the body of a 15-year-old executed by Israeli snipers in the street.

did all of these guys sign a contract where they’re not allowed to acknowledge that Biden was barely verbal and visibly dying for the majority of his term? yeah, they probably lost 7 million voters because all those people HATE Lina Khan!

A pretty big part of populism is having a leader capable of communicating and telling a coherent story about their program. That wasn’t exactly the case with Biden.

Hausdorff, who ludicrously here accuses the ICC of a ‘blood libel’ against the Jews, doesn’t want you to know that the ICC chief prosecutor was advised to go head with the arrest warrant request by Theodor Meron, 94-year-old Jewish Holocaust survivor and ex-Israeli diplomat.
'Is it not possible for Israeli politicians to commit crimes against humanity, regardless of their ethnic and religious origin?'
'You're now putting words in my mouth.'
@mattfrei debates with barrister Natasha Hausdorff, who brands arrest warrants against Netanyahu 'unlawful'.

i mean cranky old marxists have said for ages that it’s important to read the financial times and at some point we will all realize they weren’t joking

There's a lot of people out there trying to sell narratives about young people, especially men, right now. But many reasons to be skeptical of/cautious with this.
In @Civiqs polling, Trump is 35-61 fav/unfav among 18-29 year olds. Maybe let's wait for some more data before we hot-take this one.

A “Holocaust”: What a source familiar with on the ground conditions in Gaza now tells Seymour Hersh is happening there

Yep. Woke shit centrists now say they hate was first amplified by centrists attempting to paint Bernie as racially insensitive and insufficiently intersectional. Rolling Stone hailed Hillary's "breaking up the banks won't end racism" BS as the line that won her the nomination.

Say it with me: Dumbass forms of identity politics didn't come from the Bernie wing of the Democratic Party, they came from the establishment's cynical attempts to beat down that wing.

When your election coverage is wildly disconnect from the results you should rethink it. But the only answer to bad access journalism isn’t more access journalism. And imo, the problem for lib media this cycle wasn’t they ignored Trump. It’s they ignored base, every day Dems

This from a guy who defends a genocide that vast majority of Dem voters oppose out of deference to a right-wing lobbying group called AIPAC. Truly one of most repugnant humans in politics and fact that many in party establishment are treating him like he's smart tells you a lot.

Let's be very clear about what we're seeing: Israel is turning Gaza into a series of smaller and smaller concentration camps. 2 million people corralled into so-called "humanitarian zones" of ~20% of the land (& attacked even there). Cut off from adequate food, water, medicine.
An important @haaretzcom piece about what the Israeli army is doing on the ground in Gaza, building substantial outposts and infrastructure for a prolonged stay in the territory—some of it on roads that used to lead to the Israeli settlements in Gaza. haaretz.com/israel-news/secu…

colorado has continued to vote more democratic because it is filled with highly educated people who are trending left. it has next to nothing to do with jared polis specifically
I wanted to report a piece on how @jaredpolis held down Dem losses in Colorado by focusing relentlessly on the cost-of-living. That turned out to be true, but so did a much less comfortable story:

Note that Adam Schiff joined with 204 Republicans and 51 other democrats to vote in favor of giving the upcoming Trump admin unilateral power to shut down nonprofits it determines "support terrorism". This is your supposed leader of the anti-Trump #resistance
Amid Trump's threats of retribution for his political opponents, California Senator-elect @AdamSchiff tells @jaketapper, “I'm not going to be intimidated by anything he says, by anything he does.”
