US Representative Rashida Tlaib delivered a forceful public statement rejecting claims that a ceasefire is currently in effect in Lebanon, accusing fellow lawmakers of repeating what she described as inaccurate language.

"62 million views in February alone" is still a repulsive statistic! But it also has a very different meaning and being able to parse it is important.
Perhaps we need more balanced #content 🤝
I always insist I’m going to take a cold shower because it’s so hot, then I wind up taking the hottest shower possible. I’m starting to think those Instagram stories that husbands post about being physically unable to shower with their wives because their preferred water temp is boiling are valid.
Amos Hochstein, senior energy adviser to Biden within the State Department, said he was supportive of Trump’s attack on Iran from June of last year and suggested that Biden may have done the same if he had been elected to a second term in office.
This did not get nearly enough attention when Truthout reported it yesterday.

Amazing work from Ahmad here. Ordinary people like you and I are risking their lives to document this war. Here, he goes to the Strait of Hormuz. youtu.be/vZ3wIKmS8lw
Tweet from Madhi Mohammadi: Trump's ceasefire extension means nothing. The losing side cannot dictate terms. The continuation of the siege is no different from bombardment and must be met with a military response. Moreover, Trump's ceasefire extension is certainly a ploy to buy time for a surprise strike. The time for Iran to take the initiative has come.
Madhi Mohammadi, an advisor to the speaker of the Iranian parliament/lead negotiator with the US MB Ghalibaf:
“Trump's ceasefire extension means nothing... The time for Iran to take the initiative has come.”

People in the Global South are consistently treated as expendable so Americans can feel like they’re building a neat, ‘progressive’ coalition. Do any of you actually have solidarity with us, or does your brand of pretend pragmatism just mean accommodating the same violence you claim to oppose?
And I think Hasan is a total fool for trying to argue that Mamdani embracing Obama is “good for the left.” We are not making liberals more “left” by rehabilitating Obama; we are moving right. Do you, though. Whatever. It’s been a nauseating two days seeing people glaze a mass murderer.
It just… amazes me. When the genocide—which was engineered under Biden—ramped up, these people were blocking Palestinians, Iranians, etc. for pointing out their lack of urgency. We’re back here again. Again! We’re blocking people for pointing out war crimes. I mean, what is there left for me to say.
You can watch the wonderful Dr. Helyeh Doutaghi's documentary on the #Iran Minab school massacre here. Please show your support by watching and liking if you're able. youtu.be/RYd8ePRlq1U
Iranian analyst Ali Alizadeh’s Farsi and English accounts were suspended on X today amidst a massive purge of Iranian accounts.
The suspension occurred right after he did a livestream with Dr. Helyeh Doutaghi and published her new documentary series on the Minab school massacre on his YouTube.
Amazing. Liberals cannot engage with what’s in front of their noses; they just block and hope all the victims of their favorite Democrat(s) just—fingers crossed—fade from public consciousness.
Liberals and their weird parasocial obsession with Obama is going to turn me into The Joker.
You’re so right!
So true!
The Strait of Hormuz is now completely closed because Israel can't adhere to any ceasefire agreement that requires them to stop killing civilians
Vatanfaroush :)))
Of course it was Alinejad. 😂😂😂
(:
I get two now because you didn’t tell me about the rule so that one doesn’t count.

She could very easily endorse later, but man every time I hear her speak now she's a far cry from the supposed underdog that beat Crowley.
“I’m trying to think about my role more broadly.”
“I have a really amazing but lean team.”
“Once you go in, it’s like… what about this, what about this…”

Why are so many people still holding on to what they want AOC to be and what they feel she could be instead of paying attention to people that are already voting the way that they wanted AOC to vote? Summer Lee, for example. Summer Lee gets a fraction of the attention.
Seems that way!!
