Israel says it won’t allow Palestinians to return to northern Gaza. It’s been clear from the start that the plan is ethnic cleansing and land theft. We demand @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris cut off weapons and support to Israel to stop this genocide NOW!
Palestinians will not be allowed to return to homes in northern Gaza, says IDF dlvr.it/TG2dw1

“They began attacking houses of people in Amsterdam with Palestinian flags, so that's actually where the violence started,” Amsterdam riots started by Maccabi hooligans — Amsterdam city council member Jazie Veldhuyzen tells Al Jazeera.

.@FranceskAlbs finished her talk @UofT with a quote by Primo Levi, Jewish Italian survivor of Auschwitz. "Rejection of human solidarity, obtuse and cynical indifference to the suffering of others, abdication of the intellect and of moral sense to the principle of authority, and above all, at the root of everything, a sweeping tide of cowardice, a colossal cowardice which masks itself as warring virtue, love of country and faith in an idea.” 👉 youtu.be/VEqpNeEIdNw?feature…

This is Matan Ahlfeld, CEO of Axiom Media Inc. He was charged this weekend at an overpass demonstration on the 400 & King, expressing anger at the banners displayed. Witnesses state that Ahlfeld attacked an anti-war demonstrator with a bat, striking him three times and causing injuries to his leg, hand, and back. Ahlfeld's firm has previously worked with both the Liberal and Conservative parties, raising concerns about impartiality. It is unclear if police have filed charges. We demand immediate accountability for this violent incident, which we view as an anti-Palestinian and Islamophobic attack. This is clearly hate-motivated. Let us hope that the Crown does not drop the charges, if any, like they did with Lorna Bernbaum whose charges for assaulting a protestor was dropped last week because, according to the Crown, she may have been provoked by pro-Palestine chants.

The amazing thing about America is anybody can grow up to become president. The horrible thing about America is anyone can become president. Except women.

Recovery is about change. For me it's been a complete overhaul on all aspects of physical, mental, spiritual health. What we put in our bodies does have an impact on how we feel. I always start my day with the humble oatmeal, some fruit and 2 hard boiled eggs to keep me energized! Look out world here I come. 💪🏼💪🏼#Wedorecover

Incredible news. Zooey Zephyr, my fiancée, was re-elected to the Montana House of Representatives, getting 83% of the vote. Many of you will remember her for standing up for trans people in Montana, and then getting censured and kicked off the House floor. I'm so proud of her.
It is an honor to have been re-elected to the Montana House of Representatives. And I promise to do as I have always done: fight for my constituents, stand up against those who seek to break democracy, and be a bulwark against the rising tide of American fascism.

Nevada’s secretary of state, seeing high number of rejected ballots in Clark and Washoe, says one of the biggest issues is that the signatures of younger voters don’t always match what’s on their driver’s licenses: “It’s mostly the fact that young people don’t have signatures these days. And when they did register to vote through the automatic voter registration process, they signed a digital pad at D.M.V., and that became their license signature.” nytimes.com/live/2024/11/05/…

Canada needs to start thinking about what its universal values are and then make a concentrated cross-party push to support and retain those values.

Harris didn't lose this race, and post mortems are useless. America made an informed and considered choice and picked the man they did. There's probably not much a reasonable democratic campaign could've done to change that. America saw Trump. And they liked him.
