Ceasefires in name only
#Putin and #Netanyahu egging one another on in the ‘cease fire’ stakes - both of them encouraged and enabled by the #USA. Even the #UK has finally begun to (finally) suggest that Israel is committing war crimes - and it has taken a bloody long time to get there!

"It should be clear by now that America is not exceptional; the constitution is not a magical document that will protect our freedoms simply by existing. We are sliding towards an authoritarian future at alarming speed and #Khalil’s detention is an important reminder that we can’t fight for our rights in isolation. All of our freedoms are intertwined."

“…these films…are meant to draw you in to a politics of us and them, to a world of lying and hatred… -- but only with your assent.”

“The messaging was obviously coordinated in advance. … The result is propaganda film worthy of the 1930s, in which the Leader determines what is true and what is false and who is human and who is not…”

For quite some time, certain people in the U.S. have been 'czars', like Homan being referred to as the U.S. border 'czar'. It's always bothered me that we have adopted this Russian word, without regard for where it came from or what it means.
From Merriam-Webster:
1
: emperor
specifically : the ruler of Russia until the 1917 revolution
2
: one having great power or authority
a banking czar
Am I the only one bothered by this?
