Opinion | Bernie Sanders, A.O.C. and the Surging Politics of Anger Struggling working-class voters fear that the country they’ve always counted on is sliding away because of Trump.

About Bernie Sanders: “He brings awareness of what’s going on in the country, and he’s giving voice to those who are voiceless,” Dina Garibay, a teacher, told @megankstack.bsky.social. “He wants to stand up for the rights of everybody, and the Democratic Party doesn’t always stand up for that.”

Thank you!

Thanks!

Could she have kept it up if she added a little ^ NOT to it?

Opinion | Palestinians in Gaza Face the ‘Gates of Hell’ as Israel and Hamas Face Off Lately it feels as if the human beings in Gaza are increasingly lost from our understanding.

Starvation is not a negotiation tactic.

I wrote about Gaza, the faltering ceasefire, human bargaining chips, and the catastrophic cruelty that the world has come, by degrees, to more or less accept.

Opinion | Why Immigrants Fear Trump Even if They Voted for Him (Gift Article) Talking to people around Chicago, I heard the word “resentment” over and over.

I went to Chicago, which Trump sold as "ground zero" for deportation, & got an earful about migrant bus arrivals; undocumented workers who shore up the economy; politics of resentment; and why some people still support Trump even as they fear deportation.

There are a thousand reasons Musk& his minions should not legally have access to the social security records, and it’s not just financial/payments. It’s overall privacy rights. For example — just 1 example — these records are the most efficient way to ID/find every trans person.

President Michael D Higgins has said that to say the Irish people are anti-Semitic is a "deep slander" and it is a very serious business to do so simply because people disagree with the actions of the Israeli Prime Minister.

Somehow President Biden’s unauthorized, ineffective, and still ongoing conflict with the Houthis isn’t generating the same controversy as his pardon decision.

Stronger textual basis for the pardon than this conflict with the Houthis.

Good.

This either matters or it doesn’t and if it doesn’t then what does.

After nearly eight years of painstaking public records work by Bloomberg's @jasonleopold.bsky.social , the US government has now declassified a closely guarded memo related to the targeted assassinations of Vladimir Putin’s political foes. www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Hi!! I’m not sure about this place. Too clean?

Phew OK that was my first post here. I’m not sure I have it in me to figure out where all my Twitter contacts are on here, and I have to admit I still love the Wild West of Twitter, but I’m giving it a go.

Opinion | Trump Can Speed Up the Inevitable in Ukraine He should force a settlement to save lives and avoid more destruction.

The US needs a clear understanding of what it's done in, & to, Ukraine. I mean every administration since the Soviet collapse. We pull Ukraine close, make promises we don't keep, dangle NATO perpetually &, ultimately, let Ukraine suffer the ensuring wrath of Russia.
