In the News

  • Waiting for the Biden administration's statement on Israel's closing of Aljazeera in the West Bank. Maybe also from the faux free-speech warriors like Bari Weiss. Maybe Biden's Press Secretary who said anti-genocide protesters were antisemitic will have something to say. Crickets.
  • Another mass shooting, in Birmingham. Just remember, this is the America that the Supreme Court wants. (They also believe the Founders wanted it this way.)
  • The Biden administration continues its lurch to the right and its incresing Cold War with China. Now they're talking about banning Chinese cars over the fear that they might be spying on Americans. Hey guess what? American car companies (not to mention every single US tech company) is already spying on Americans and selling the info to data brokers without consequence. Seems kind of a phony issue.
  • Reported in today's Guardian: "Seven people have been killed after an Israeli airstrike hit a school housing displaced people in western Gaza City, Palestinian health officials said, amid fears that Gaza’s worsening humanitarian crisis might be forgotten as tensions boil between Hezbollah and Israel." I am sure that is Netanyahu's strategy: widen the war to draw attention away from his genocide.
