“They’re about to see this other Cori, this other side,” she told supporters. “Aipac, I’m coming to tear your kingdom down.”
Bush, who will continue to serve in Congress until January, added: “All they did was radicalise me, so now they need to be afraid.”

Humans of the future will ask why we refused to act and we will rightly be condemned for our failure.

Inviting a war criminal to speak to Congress was a mistake. Of course, given the US and its current president is a full partner and arms supplier in those war crimes I suppose it fits. The US is a partner in a current, ongoing genocide.
"A large, raucous pro-Palestinian protest Tuesday at a U.S. House office building is spiking lawmakers' concerns about security around Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's upcoming speech."

"Americans tend to think about the loss of electricity as something infrequent and temporary. For most, it is a rare inconvenience stemming from a heat wave or storm.
But for millions of U.S. households, the risk of losing power is a constant concern. According to the most recent data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 1 in 4 American households experience some form of energy insecurity each year, with no appreciable improvement over the past decade."

The US is a circus of white supremacy. The violence of today rooted in the violence of yesterday. There is a thru line from our foundation in settler colonialism to economic gains based upon slavery to this moment. Today our domestic violence is exported as war profiteering and a foreign policy rooted in constant interventions. A repeating cycle of violence with the goal of resource extraction, resource theft. It is fundamental to America.

Brutal truth.
Listen to this conversation with Saul Williams about the historical and ongoing colonialism by the Global North of the Global South. It’s white supremacy in service of resource extraction, plain and simple.
"Legendary artist Saul Williams joins Empire Files to discuss the overlap of high technology with medieval barbarism in Israel’s genocide."

“I think people just really have no idea what is coming, because we have no way of visualizing that through our own personal experiences, or that of the last 250 years,” said Randall Parkinson, a coastal geologist at Florida International University. “It’s not something where you go, ‘I know what that might look like because I’ve seen that.’ Because we haven’t."

"It would seem like a heavy-handed metaphor if it weren’t our actual reality. A doddering patriarch, representing the collapsing centrist political project, refuses to step aside even as it becomes certain that he faces defeat at the hands of an even more authoritarian autocrat. This encapsulates the global prospects for democracy today.
It’s not a particular politician that has grown senile, but an entire political system."

Mehdi Hasan's latest is important for anyone that may not have a grasp of the role AIPAC is playing in pushing US politics further and further to the right.
“We need to talk about AIPAC” - YouTube
"In Mehdi Hasan's latest monologue, he unpacks how and why AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, one of the most powerful lobbying group in the US, is spending record amounts of money to topple - not for the first time - a pro-Palestinian Congressman.

"Israel’s near-total blockade of humanitarian aid has pushed tens of thousands of children in Gaza to the point of requiring medical treatment for starvation and malnutrition, the UN reported on Saturday.
According to the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), there are currently [over 50,000 children in Gaza](https://x.com/UNRWA/status/1801887371350446134) who need to be treated for acute malnutrition — or nearly a tenth of Gaza’s population of children."

When it comes to confronting the white supremacy that the 10% of the Global North quietly uphold and defend we can't be polite. This system is violent, genocidal and is responsible for our climate emergency.
There is no reason to play nice. Their lifestyles are making the planet unlivable.

Yesterday's Majority Report includes an interview with Greg Stoker that provides a great deal of context and insight into the complete clusterfuck that is Israel's operation in Gaza. The interview begins at 15:00
"Stoker looks to Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Gaza, which has made the US military look nearly discriminate by contrast, walking through how Israel has eviscerated every central piece of infrastructure of Gaza society, and demonstrated..."

“There are no more words to describe the horrors in Gaza. The words ‘apocalyptic,’ ‘exceptionally grave,’ ‘disastrous’ and ‘catastrophic’ have all been used to describe the current situation, and all seem to pale in comparison to what is unfolding before our very eyes. Almost daily we are confronted with gut-wrenching accounts of victims and survivors and images of unimaginable suffering.” - Judge Dire Tladi of South Africa, ICJ Jurist

That's delusional and so far off from reality. A denial of all evidence and awareness of the trajectory we are on.
