🟢 New Press Statement - Hamas: — The horrific scenes visible on the bodies of the martyrs returned by the occupation, bearing marks of torture, abuse, and field executions, clearly reveal the criminal and fascist nature of the occupation army and the moral and human decadence this entity has reached, which doesn't differentiate in its aggression between the living and the dead of our people. As such, this constitutes a heinous crime that rises to the level of genocide against our Palestinian people. We call upon international rights groups, foremost among them the UN and the Human Rights Council, to document these atrocious crimes, open an urgent and comprehensive investigation into them, and bring the occupation leaders to trial before relevant international courts, as they are responsible for committing unprecedented crimes against humanity in our modern history.

This must be on the front page of every newspaper. It must be on every TV screen. This is one of the Palestinian bodies held hostage by Israel, returned through the International Committee of the Red Cross. This is one of the people CNN referred to, only as “deceased.” He was blindfolded, handcuffed, and hanged.

A newly released Palestinian body shows clear signs of abuse. The man’s hands appear bound behind his back, his eyes blindfolded, and his body suspended in a position consistent with hanging. Medical sources told Drop Site the visible evidence raises grave questions about the conduct of Israeli forces and potential violations of international law. The case, reportedly dating back months but only now exposed, underscores what rights groups have described as a pattern of killings and torture that Israel makes little effort to conceal.

Never before in U.S. history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next.

This is dictatorship.

The 500 richest people in the world added $304B to their combined net worth yesterday after Trump's tariff pause.

Trump's actions feel chaotic until you see who really comes out on top.

Fund managers worry about Trump’s mental state amid tariff debacle Some fund managers concerned ‘that the White House is not acting rationally, but rather on ideology. And some even fear that this may not even be ideology’

Fund managers quietly fear Trump doesn’t have a tariff plan and that he ‘might be insane’

Won’t the checks and balances of the US system stop him?
