Archaeologists from @UHouston have uncovered the tomb of Te K’ab Chaak — Caracol’s first ruler and dynastic founder. It’s the first identifiable ruler’s burial found at the site in 40+ years of excavations. #Maya #Archaeology #Belize
Councillors in West Northamptonshire last night slammed Reform UK’s plan to access council data as part of its ‘DOGE’ drive to reduce local “fraud and waste”.
Lo de Montoro, de confirmarse, lo tiene todo: capitalismo fósil, consultoría Big 4 maquillando cuentas, ministro que estrangulaba fiscalmente al país regalando exenciones a dedo... Casi que encajan tantas piezas que no parece extraordinario, sino un reflejo de la forma de operar de las derechas.
El ex titular de Hacienda y nueve altos cargos de su Ministerio habrían influido, a cambio de dinero, en la aprobación de leyes que beneficiaban a sociedades que eran clientes de un despacho de abogados que había fundado el ministro antes de entrar a…
After 41 years behind bars, Georges Ibrahim Abdallah, the longest-held political prisoner and a steadfast symbol of anti-imperialist resistance, is finally set to walk free.
The French judiciary has approved on July 17 his release, scheduled for July 25, bringing an end to one of the most politically charged detention cases in modern French history.
Abdallah's lawyer confirmed that political interference, particularly from the US, had delayed the legal proceedings that should have led to his release much earlier
“The US exerted pressure to obstruct the legal process leading to his release”, framing the case as a political decision rather than a judicial one
For instance, while Abdallah's prison sentence ended in 1999 and he was granted a parole ruling in 2003, over 10 decisions for his release were rejected due to US interference
Abdallah has refused to pay any form of compensation as a condition of his release, reinforcing his longstanding stance against conceding to demands he considers politically motivated.
In a related development, the Lebanese embassy in Paris is set to handle the official procedures to facilitate the transfer of Abdallah to the airport ahead of his return to Lebanon, according to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Paris.
Abdallah will be returning to Beirut following his scheduled release later
Arrested in 1984 and sentenced to life in 1987 for his alleged involvement in the assassinations of US military attache Charles Robert Ray and Israeli diplomat Yacov Barsimantov in 1982, Abdallah became a target of unrelenting political interference, particularly from the United States, which repeatedly obstructed his release despite his eligibility for parole since 1999.
Abdallah never responded to the list of accusations and considered that the

Many states rely on the federal government for the vast majority of their emergency management funding. Now, local leaders are looking for clues about the money — and the future of FEMA itself.
@realcaseyrollins In comparison, the Nagano to Kanazawa shinkansen line (142 miles) was recently completed for $13 billion. And it goes through the Japanese Alps.
@sensei @realcaseyrollins Massive amounts of TTN infrastructure has been built throughout the Central Valley of California - huge berms, overpasses, embankments. Tons of earth-moving equipment active on many sites. Hundreds of workers.
But I have yet to see any actual, you know, railroad track...
It was once supposed to go from LA to SF and cost $10 billion. Now it's going from Fresno to Bakersfield and will cost $100 billion.

Ya basta de saludos a la bandera, duscursos y actos simbólicos, no se puede seguir aplaudiendo esas nimiedades como grandes actos, lo mínimo que debe hacer un gobierno es suspender toda relación con el ente sionista. Todo lo demás es complicidad con el genocidio!
Hacked data obtained by 404 Media reveals dozens more people on deportation flights to El Salvador who are unaccounted for. “We have not heard from these people’s families, so I think perhaps even they don’t know," one lawyer said.

Wie die #Nationalsozialisten mit angeblich "Arbeitsscheuen" oder "Asozialen" umgingen, ist bislang nur wenig erforscht.

"Aux USA, un ouvrier agricole décède lors d’un raid de l'ICE. En France, Utopia porte plainte contre la police après la mort d’un exilé. L’article En France comme aux USA : le racisme d’État tue est apparu en premier sur Contre Attaque."
Last year people were mad that Green Day were "political" during their concert. This year people are mad that MCR are "political" during their concert as well. I'm not sure how you grew up a fan of this brand of music that had anarchy signs plastered on everything and now as an adult think they'd suddenly be supporting any government much less Trump's administration lol.
As of today — Thursday — in the #gaza Strip, 1 kilogram of flour costs 100 shekels ($30) in cash. But here’s the painful truth: To get that cash, people are forced to pay up to 45% in commission. That means 1 kilogram of flour ends up costing 180 shekels ($55).
One kilogram makes only 10 loaves of bread — barely enough for a small family of 3. But most families in Gaza have 6 or more members.
My 6am-11pm shift for this Saturday just got changed to an 11:30am-9:30pm shift because I guess my boss felt bad for me. Nonetheless, that's great because I haven't been falling asleep until 3am these days. I do still have to be at work by 6am on Sunday though...
Labour used the accessibility provisions for a disabled councillor and single mum as a factional weapon in order to ‘rig’ an election. Polly Smythe reports.
Every once in awhile, I think of my favorite “…the fuck did you just say?” phraseology, which is from Homer’s Iliad, proving we have never, ever changed as a species, only become less fancily inclined.
“What nonsense has escaped the barrier of your teeth now?”

Mayor Karen Bass is out here handing out cash cards like candy to illegal immigrants in LA, all while wildfire victims—16,000 homes and businesses reduced to ashes—are stuck in a bureaucratic nightmare, with just 12 permits handed out. Twelve! That’s not a recovery; that’s a middle finger to every tax-paying American who’s lost everything.
Alan Dershowitz, one of Epstein’s former lawyers, has claimed this week that two courts in New York have put a clamp on information regarding the notorious financier and convicted sex offender’s case, not the Trump administration.

Stephen Miller: “Torture is a celebration of human life and dignity.”
Leaked video shows the current White House Chief of Staff at 17, describing the torture of Iraqis in gruesome detail as the group erupts in laughter.
"How’s this for a vibe check: A Quinnipiac University poll yesterday found that a whopping 63 percent of voters disapprove of how the Trump administration is handling the Epstein-files controversy, with a scant 17 percent approving."
"As John Stoehr points out in his latest Editorial Board newsletter, Trump is now in a position of looking as if he’s eager to cover up this conspiracy, rather than to expose it. Indeed he’s become part of the conspiracy. This has created a crisis of faith for MAGA believers."
This almost theological facet of the story is why Lindsay Beyerstein believes there has been a 'qualitative conceptual shift' that virtually everyone, including yours truly, has so far missed. 'It has become conceivable to some of his most loyal supporters that he’s not just wrong but evil. That can’t be unthought, even if it can be repressed.'”
"Less than eight hours after proclaiming that the Jeffrey Epstein scandal was just some 'new SCAM' perpetrated by Democrats, about four days after he first attempted to float the wildly illogical claim that the Epstein 'Files [were] written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Brennan, and the Losers and Criminals of the Biden Administration,' DOJ fired Jim Comey’s daughter, Maurene."
Pam Bondi fired Maurene Comey, one of the people who convinced Jeffrey Epstein's victims she would fight very powerful people to win them justice. And Bondi did so in Donald Trump's name.
"Maurene Comey, who was most recently involved in the high-profile prosecution of Sean “Diddy” Combs, was reportedly escorted out of the building last evening by her colleagues in a show of solidarity.
Hey, there are so many anti-genocide voices to choose from that there is really no reason at all to boost an Assad/Putin/China apologist, "anarchists are all CIA", campist shit-head grifter like Caitlin Johnstone! Please don't!
I don't, specifically because I have your voice (and a couple others) sounding in my head (so do keep shouting, it does have an effect), but it's hard sometimes because even if others make the same general point, the specific way she phrases it succinctly is so temptingly quotable. By no means all the time, but sometimes.
I get it, I used to boost her anti-capitalist stuff once upon a time before I realized how bad she was in other areas (and before she blocked me for calling out her crap back on twitter).
(If anyone needs more info I've got receipts, just ask).
@bifouba I boosted it because I know that type of person personally, I have never heard of this person, but now I'm curious, what they said specifically, so some receipts would be interesting to me. Don't bother if you're not in the mood though
Here's a thread where I documented my experiences and findings re: her antagonism towards anarchists, along with some other stuff about Putin and Ukraine: kolektiva.social/@RD4Anarchy/1…
(When Russia was building up forces to attack Ukraine she claimed that the imminent invasion was nothing but US/Western propaganda to make Russia look bad. After the invasion she took the typical campist position that Putin was justified because big bad NATO was scaring him too much).
She's also mentioned in this article: The ‘Echo Chamber’ of Syrian Chemical Weapons Conspiracy Theorists A collection of non-mainstream bloggers has been paid by a murky organization to parrot Assad regime and Kremlin falsehoods newlinesmag.com/argument/the-e…
As has been remarked widely since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, propaganda emerges from all sides of a conflict during wartime. All of us are likely to
@bifouba Oh boy, that was bad, I managed to not get sick until the antisemitism part though, yay for me I guess. What was weird to me reading this stuff, is how anyone thinks this person's writing is compelling. That's campists I guess *shrugs*.
@bifouba Well, that screenshot on its own would honestly make me uncomfortable already, but I really don't like short form political content, so that might be just me.
@bifouba @leomas Quotable does not mean acceptable. Her pithy little statement erases the entire history of antisemitism. While Leomas might not like short form political statements, I do not have this bias and I find this statement neither useful or elucidating.
@CorvidCrone @leomas I certainly don't care for her implication that it's "causing" the antisemitism, as opposed to activating pre-existing antisemitism, or falling on already fertile ground for it, but I don't particularly care ⋅about⋅ that distinction either, which doesn't seem to me to have much practical consequence, as the end result should be rejected regardless either way.
I'm more interested in the second part. In terms of what is happening right now, there is a pattern of committing atrocities while loudly and proudly proclaiming to be there and doing what they are doing specifically ⋅as⋅ Jews, supposedly ⋅for Jews⋅, while carving Stars of David into the ground of Gaza and the faces of prisoners, explicitly celebrating the burning of homes, schools, and books as Hanukkah lights and so on, and then, having done so, complaining that people object to these actions “just because we are Jews", in what amounts an obscene abuse of both Judaism and the history of antisemitism you mention.
What I am looking for is a more succinct indictment of that obscenity.
