Louisiana passed a bill that would not allow anyone convicted of a crime after Aug 1, to ever qualify for parole.

The state with the largest prison population in the country made people convicted of a crime unable to ever get parole. https://t.co/HzBt1IZq6G

7 years ago, I wrote a small piece about a man who was falsely accused of a crime.

A few days later, I got an anonymous telling me to look up the woman they called “the evilest white woman on earth.”

What happened next is the absolute wildest story you’ll ever hear

It’s worth saying again: It doesn’t change the bombs or the imperial power structure.

The press keeps repeating Israeli propaganda that the strike on World Central Kitchen workers was an accident. No, the IDF clearly stated they thought there was a militant in the convoy, so they chose to murder everyone in the vehicles. That is an active decision, not a mistake.

Either the IDF is extremely bad at identifying targets, to the point that it’s dangerous for aid workers and civilians, and the U.S. should stop sending them weapons.

Netanyahu is lying and the U.S. should stop sending them weapons.
