Laughable when you hear genocidal Israel propose a humanitarian aid plan for Palestine, backed by the genocidal U.S. Just open the gates and let the aid trucks in. Israel has been deliberately starving children and preventing medical aid.

A Florida grand jury found the DeSantis administration “misappropriated” $10 million meant to provide health insurance for poor children. Part of a “sophisticated scheme to fund political activities,” the money was funneled through multiple organizations before reaching two PACs and the Florida GOP.

Retired Navy Commander Bobby Jones on the part of Doris Miller’s story too many Americans were never taught:
His heroism at Pearl Harbor should have earned him the Medal of Honor.
Why didn’t it?
“I’ll give you one guess. He was a Black man.”
Now they want to take his name off an aircraft carrier

Chinese electric cars are illegal to buy, sell and even register in Arizona.
Google, a powerful tech company, gets to circumvent those laws because “rules for thee, not me”.

Kudos to Mark Ruffalo for standing up against genocide and apartheid, as one of the few prominent actors prepared to do so.
As usual, attacks from the Israel lobby and their enablers conflate justified criticism of Israeli crimes with 'antisemitism', in an effort to scare critics into silence.
