We are disturbed to learn that @CalgaryOpera has removed bass-baritone Gabriel Sanchez-Ortega from future performances of "Tosca" after he unveiled a Palestinian flag during the curtain call on opening night. Art is political, and artists should not be punished for expressing support for the Palestinian people as they face a genocide. This decision must be reversed.

Rep. @RashidaTlaib has been leading the fight in Congress to stop arming Israel and end the genocide in Gaza. Vote to re-elect Rashida Tlaib in #MI12!

This week, we opened 385 new affordable homes in Brooklyn. We’ll soon grow the Innovative Urban Village to 2,000 affordable homes, child care, jobs, a grocery store and a performing arts center. That’s what it looks like to build a city without pricing out the working class.

Huge crowds took to the streets across Spain this month in solidarity with Palestine. From Madrid to Barcelona, Málaga and Palma, people marched demanding an end to the genocide in Gaza, a full arms embargo on Israel, and the severing of all ties with the occupation. Free Palestine

Former Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has urged the world not to forget Palestinians in Gaza. In a video with the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, he condemns the dehumanisation of victims and the suffering of children.

Miko Peled: “The story of the Zionists is not that they came to a desert and made it bloom — it’s that they came to a blooming country and they stole it.” As Palestinians say in Arabic: اخذوها مفروشة (Akhaduha Mafroosha) — “They took it fully furnished.” Cities, farms, orchards, ports, banks, and infrastructure were already there. They didn’t create a garden from nothing; they took a country that was already in full bloom and claimed it as their own.

Rep. Ilhan Omar stood up for her community when ICE was raiding, deporting and killing them. Now, Minneapolis is showing its solidarity after her Washington, DC home was raided by ICE.

When JFK ran, they said the country would never elect a Catholic president. When Obama ran, they said the country would never elect a Black president. Michiganders care a lot less about how I pray than what I pray for: peace, dignity, basic goodness for all of our kids.

I stand with the brave asylum seekers and immigrants on hunger strike in ICE detention centers in Georgia and Texas. They’ve suffered horrendous conditions, poor medical treatment, and missed years of their lives without families. We must close these ICE torture camps for good. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

The Republican-controlled board of elections shut down the 1 early voting site at North Carolina A&T University—a historically Black college—so students marched an hour to vote. CONGRATULATIONS TO THESE STUDENTS FOR FIGHTING BACK. WE MUST ALL DO THE SAME.
