<wait my producer is just whispering something in my ear>

Apparently this is precedented

the aerial view of destruction, seeing places that i've spent so much precious time in being literally erased by Israeli bombs while i'm far away, feels like a physical assault on memory itself.

The destruction of Gaza is so total that it changed the nature of echo in the ruinscape, and gunshot sounds are now easy to trace because nothing ricochets off walls www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

Facebook and Instagram Tighten Censorship Rules for Saying “Antifa” Meta’s new rules let it ban users or suppress comments that include the word “antifa” alongside “content-level threat signals.”

Meta recently added new restrictions around "Antifa content" on Facebook and Instagram. Internal documents I reviewed show it applies when a user merely uses the word "Antifa" in a post.

“A group of new accounts on the prediction market Polymarket made highly specific, well-timed bets on whether the U.S. and Iran would reach a ceasefire on April 7, resulting in hundreds of thousands of dollars in profits for these new customers”

How many times will we have to keep quoting the direct words of the Trump-Vance team’s mediator? It is insane the low regard these people hold us in

400 dead so far, over 1000 injured, dozens and dozens missing. This is one hour into the massacre. I have no idea what the death toll will be in the end. Also, they have announced “another wave” of attacks coming

Operation "Eternal Darkness", i kid you not

I cannot keep track with how many notifications I'm getting from all over Beirut and south Lebanon right now of the places that Israel is obliterating. There are multiple reports of multiple massacres in the past hour alone.

Washington Post Trump warns ‘a whole civilization will die’ if Iran doesn’t make a deal The president had issued a deadline of 8 p.m. Eastern time for Iran to open up the Strait of Hormuz, pledging destruction by midnight if leaders don’t comply. April 7, 2026 at 9:22 a.m. EDT26 minutes ago 2 min

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump threatens to end an entire civilization.

Warum hat man den US-amerikanischen Botschaftsleiter noch nicht ausgewiesen? Warum sind hier noch US-Truppen stationiert? Wer jetzt nicht reagiert, macht sich mitschuldig.

A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!

JUST NOW: Trump on Truth Social.

“A whole civilisation will die tonight, never to be brought back again.”

Newly Obtained Video of Minneapolis Shooting Undermines ICE Account

Remember when DHS agents had no choice but to shoot two Venezuelan men because the men had attacked them with a snow shovel and a broomstick?

New video shows they were lying about that one, too.

Mein Gastkommentar zur Fördermittel-Affäre und der Krise des Anti-Antisemitismus in @nd-aktuell.de

‘Proactively fall in line:’ Holocaust Memorial Museum quietly changed content after Trump returned to office Two former employees said they believed the museum was altering its content preemptively to avoid unwanted negative attention from the Trump administration.

The US Holocaust Memorial Museum under the Trump administration has deleted its teaching materials about links between Nazi racism and the Jim Crow laws: www.politico.com/news/2026/04...

Ich habe mir diesen Text angeschaut und viele Falschbehauptungen gefunden. Es sieht so aus, als ob @nicholaspotter.net seine vorgefasste Meinung durch einseitig ausgesuchte Quellen stützt und zudem diese Quellen weder prüft noch einordnet. Das ist advocacy, nicht Aufklärung.🧵

Berlin hat sein Informationsfreiheitsgesetz entkernt & folgt damit dem Trend, Freiheits- und Grundrechte wegen vermeintlicher Bedrohungslagen einzuschränken. Angesichts einer autoritären Wende ein fatales Signal.

DHS says it has body-cam footage related to Pretti shooting in Minneapolis The lawsuits aim to prevent federal officials from destroying evidence related to Alex Pretti’s killing and to end the surge of immigration officers in Minnesota.

It's been 66 days since agents killed Alex Pretti.

DHS has body-cam footage.

They haven't released it.

66 days and counting.

This is called “strategic defeat.” You have ended up in a worse position than before you began, with your adversary, while battered, emerging in a stronger position than before.
