Dear @IntlCrimCourt,
At some point, caution becomes cowardice, negligence becomes intentionality, and inaction becomes complicity.
Issue the warrants now.
Lives are at stake, as are your reputations and that of the ICC.
Sincerely,
A Horrified World

@LastWeekTonight I'm gonna let you finish and #RFK is just a shyster but Gore lost himself. If he had won Tennessee or Arkansas he would have won. #Florida is a copout. Candidates need to use more than fear, try good policy. #2024

The wheelchair industry is now controlled by two private equity firms.
They won't prioritize repairs, which aren't as profitable. So countless users have broken chairs and can't afford new ones.
"My bones are deforming," said one senior who's waited for a repair for 3 years.

I’m a @BBC devotee, but this is a shockingly misleading and even dangerous characterization.
The horrific acts of violence at UCLA yesterday were committed by extremist supporters of Israel *against* anti-war Palestinian rights protestors in a sustained assault.
Please reword.
Ysabel Jurado, a tenants attorney is now in the top spot as predicted in the CD14 City Council race, surpassing incumbent Kevin de Leon. She is 318 votes ahead.
She was one of several challengers to de Leon's re-election bid, including two who are sitting state lawmakers.
Now: A Zoom phonebank for Rep. Adam Schiff's Senate campaign was just bombarded with disruptors calling for Schiff to call for a ceasefire in Gaza as Schiff spoke.
Schiff ignored the disruption and the chat was disabled:
Had Amazon simply paid its federal taxes from 2018-2021—that would've been ~$25B over those 3 years alone.
Instead, while Amazon's annual profit is $256 billion—nearly double Mississippi's annual GDP—they get a decade of tax exemptions in America's poorest state. Absurd Greed.
Mississippi has approved bills to give Amazon a 10-year, 100% corporate tax exemption, plus 30 years of state tax exemptions.
Lawmakers also set aside $44 million to help fund Amazon's latest project in the state.
Mississippi has the highest poverty rate in America.
Wonderful example of Streisand effect: because mainstream media in the West by and large egregiously did not to cover South Africa's arguments against Israel at the ICJ, you now have actors of the most popular show in the world reading it out in a viral video!
South Africa began to make its case Thursday at the International Court of Justice that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. We air highlights from the first day of proceedings at The Hague.
South Africa’s closing statement:
-Each day, 247 Palestinians are being killed, 1 every 6 minutes
-48 mothers, 2 every hour
-117 children, 5 every hour
-Each day, 10 children will be amputated without anaesthetics
