    Get ready for the next stage of genocide: when all the pundits & academics & journalists who stood by & did nothing, said nothing, risked nothing, will suddenly have *so much* to say. Their empty words will fill oceans

    Oh, the panels they'll hold! Think tankers & fancy academics & analysts & pundits will throw around nonsense words like "the optics" & they will all shake their heads & cluck about How it Happened. Meanwhile the people who actually tried to stop it will have been fired.

    does this remind you. of anything.
    "“I wasn’t planning on letting her stay, but I didn’t know what the hell was going on,” the man said of his Venezuelan migrant neighbors. But he quickly relented. The little girl was inconsolable and hid under his bed.

“I didn’t want them to take her,” said the man, who didn’t want to be named because he fears he’ll be targeted by federal authorities for his actions.

“I gave her my bedroom, and I just told her, ‘Just stay there. Don’t open, don’t, shh, just stay quiet,’” he recalled telling the mom and daughter as he choked back tears."

    During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door. 

It wasn’t the feds —  it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help. He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/20…

    The DC Shooter's neighbour speaks, calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza Stating that violence is not the way, he took the spotlight to call on the US President to end the bloodshed, focusing attention on the starving children of Gaza.

    The fire was caused by a space heater. Meaning the fire was caused by a landlord. People using space heaters means a. broken windows, or b. landlord illegally withholding heat. This building has 174 violations. Including for heat. Is @NYCMayor going to do something about this?

    A fire in a Bronx apartment building on Sunday killed at least 19 people, including nine children. A total of 63 people were injured. “This is going to be one of the worst fires that we have witnessed during modern times,” Mayor Eric Adams said. nyti.ms/3naAp91

    They. Were. Locked. Inside. 39 men, burned alive inside a migrant detention center, under America's Migrant "Protection" Protocols. This is our modern-day Triangle Shirtwaist Fire.

    The mayor is lying. The building had 174 violations, 18 of them open. Multiple complaints for heat and hot water. The landlord is on the mayor's transition team—for housing.

    We need to be treating this double murder in New Jersey as a political act. In case you don't know the details: the nephew of a local police chief, radicalized by Andrew Tate & Charlie Kirk, murdered two girls with his SUV. If he'd used a gun we'd all be talking about this.

    Before Vincent Battiloro ran down Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas with his SUV. On livestream he said, "Whenever Maria sees the pizza guy come. Better think of Charlie Kirk, for making fun of his f*kin death. You stupid-ass clown. Just remember that."

    If you've ever gone to tenant meetings in low-income Black & Brown neighborhoods, you know that one of the most frequent complaints is low or no heat. Often coupled with broken windows. The investors who own these properties lavish $$$$ on politicians instead of on repairs.
