Gotta love the newspeak way these lobbying groups name themselves.

In times like this it's comforting to know that Arab leaders will always demonstrate the leadership required to blame the US no matter happens. If the US was actively involved it's because of what the US did; if the US was hands-off it's because of what the US didn't do. The important thing to always remember is that Arab leaders have no responsibility for what happens in their own backyards.

so donating clothes actually hurts their society

No, it hurts their industry, their society is benefited by the poorest people having decent clothes they can actually afford. Their society isn't hurt by a lack of local sweatshops where children wearing rags stitch together clothing they could never afford to buy.

I-25 is closed between Colorado Springs and Pueblo due to a bridge failure and train derailment. Thousands of tons of coal is being removed. The accident cost the life of a truck driver who was passing under the bridge as rail cars fell onto the interstate.

This occurred along the intended path the President would have taken, which leaves only the helicopter path available.

Good choice, Joe; "the President's intended route was coincidentally closed by an accident so now he needs to take the backup route" is one of the surest starts to a "President attacked by terrorists" movie scene I've ever heard.

Brought to you by the scumbags doing everything in their power to make sure our tech future is a dystopia where literally every action we take has a cost and they get to collect part of that cost simply for existing. The scumbags that spent the last few years making sure that billions of dollars in venture capitalist funding went into building crypto scams rather than anything useful.

Fuck Andreessen Horowitz. If we have a positive tech future it will be because we had the wisdom to burn their firm and every company like it to the ground and then bury the ashes.

At least they screamed the "WE'RE SO FUCKING EVIL" part out loud:

The Enemy
...
Our present society has been subjected to a mass demoralization campaign for six decades – against technology and against life – under varying names like “existential risk”, “sustainability”, “ESG”, “Sustainable Development Goals”, “social responsibility”, “stakeholder capitalism”, “Precautionary Principle”, “trust and safety”, “tech ethics”, “risk management”, “de-growth”, “the limits of growth”.

Sustainability is the enemy. Social responsibility is the enemy. Trust and safety are the enemy. Ethics are the enemy.

Yes, but if Trump isn't on the ballot some of the Trumpists who would have gone and voted straight Republican are going to stay home instead which could have an impact on close down-ballot races, like say Colorado's 3rd House seat for example.

Yes, I believe it's significantly more likely that any four of Gaetz, Biggs, Buck, Burchett, Crane, Good, Mace, and Rosendale will agree to some McCarthy-like speaker rather than letting the Democrats win and get a more bipartisan House where the far-right would have less power to drive the agenda.

He needs to be finding those “rational republicans” and trying to find a handful to vote for a D…

Does he need to be finding a sasquatch, a unicorn, and the Loch Ness Monster too?

Pipe dreams aren't a valid political strategy. The best way this ends is a power-sharing agreement where there's a Republican Speaker but rules about things like equal representation on committees and the minority having some right to bring resolutions to the floor. The most realistic way this ends is the grenade throwers will relent and agree to coalesce around someone if a power sharing deal even gets close.

Joint Statement by Harvard Palestine Solidarity Groups on the Situation in Palestine

We, the undersigned student organizations, hold the Israeli regime entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.

Today’s events did not occur in a vacuum. For the last two decades, millions of Palestinians in Gaza have been forced to live in an open-air prison. Israeli officials promise to "open the gates of hell," and the massacres in Gaza have already commenced. Palestinians in Gaza have no shelters for refuge and nowhere to escape. In the coming days, Palestinians will be forced to bear the full brunt of Israel’s violence.

The apartheid regime is the only one to blame. Israeli violence has structured every aspect of Palestinian existence for 75 years. From systematized land seizures to routine airstrikes, arbitrary detentions to military checkpoints, and enforced family separations to targeted killings, Palestinians have been forced to live in a state of death, both slow and sudden.

Today, the Palestinian ordeal enters into uncharted territory. The coming days will require a firm stand against colonial retaliation. We call on the Harvard community to take action to stop the ongoing annihilation of Palestinians.

This statement was co-authored by a coalition of Palestine solidarity groups at Harvard. For student safety, the names of all original signing organizations have been concealed at this time.

This is the statement ClownHall is lying about. Everyone should feel free to have an actual discussion about what they've said, I suspect many people would disagree with the rather myopic view that Israel is "entirely responsible for all unfolding violence" and "the only one to blame," but to call this "Supporting Hamas’ Invasion of Israel" is a plain and simple lie.

Not the direction in which cancellation generally flows…

This is almost always the direction cancellation has flowed.
