The #Guardian is documenting a tiny selection of hateful #Gaza #genocide promotion, not just by #media, but also by the #government and official #representatives of #Israel. In their own words.

»It’s clear now that nothing will shame the West into stopping Israel from carrying out its “total victory” in #Gaza. But I’ve written this to serve as yet another reminder that we all knew what was coming. Nobody can feign ignorance. Nobody can pretend they didn’t know.«

The Guardian · ‘Gaza must be eliminated’: Israel’s airwaves are filled with pro-genocide propagandaBy Arwa Mahdawi

I have followed with interest many '#Townhalls' in which questions were asked to #Republican #MAGA '#Representatives'
I have heard the questions and listened to the 'NON-answers'

if I had the opportunity to participate....
I would Not ask question to the MAGA representatives
but to the 'represented'

> Why did you vote to be represented by people like that ?
> how could you expect something different from what is happening in your #Nation
after voting for that ?

The text at the end of the post is copied rather than shared, at previous poster's request, and lightly edited. Feel free to share my post, though, with commentary intact.

You know this was always their endgame. The bullshit answers #RFK Jr. and his fellow loons gave Congress were even more transparent lies than all the other confirmation hearing testimony. Everyone who voted to confirm them shares the blame, but Bill #Cassidy has earned a special place in hell.

#Bondi, #Hegseth, #Noem, and all the rest of the cabinet are all assholes, and profoundly dangerous. Justice and Homeland Security are slaying their thousands, and Defense is gearing up to slay its tens of thousands. Health and Human Services is chuckling at them and saying "amateurs."

I'm skeptical that any amount of lobbying #HHS directly, or any of its sub-departments such as #FDA, #NIH, and #CDC, will have much effect. But maybe, just maybe, calling your #Senators and #Representatives will have an effect.

Let's face it, members of #Congress will suffer a lot less from idiocy like #tariffs than the rest of us, and they're (probably) safe from roundup and #deportation. #Viruses don't care about such distinctions. Mighty and humble alike can choke to death on their own liquefying lung tissue.

#Antivaxers are not "skeptics." They're not interested in evidence. They can't be bargained with, they can't be reasoned with, and they absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.

Marty Makary and Tracy Hoeg at the FDA are currently trying to set a policy that would effectively eliminate all covid vaccines. They want to require a full clinical trial every year for companies to update the covid vaccine to match the current strain, which they know is not possible.

Please contact the FDA and demand continuing access to yearly updated covid vaccines and ask for the Novavax 2025 covid vaccine to be approved.

The Independent: #MikeJohnson calls budget vote despite #Republican anger over #Medicaid cuts and deficit (cost in bill to give tax breaks to the rich)
The House of #Representatives pulled an expected vote Wednesday night on the #Senate's #budgetblueprint as Republicans faced resistance from their own party — which several #GOP lawmakers warned would happen.

"Rallies were held in different communities across #Iowa, including Cedar Rapids, Dubuque, Red Oak & Waterloo. In Central Iowa, there were protests in Ames at Bandshell Park & a large one drawing thousands to downtown Des Moines...

"I'm hoping this is a start. I hope everybody is not home posting memes, but they're calling our #senators. They're calling our #representatives. They're writing letters," said Barb Farrow"
