The Ceaseless Ceasefire

The Ceaseless Ceasefire

For the Palestinians, the ceasefire in Israel's war on Gaza might not be all-out war — but it's certainly not peace, and no end is in sight.

NEW: I spoke with two U.S. doctors who had volunteered at Nasser Hospital — surviving an Israeli raid and airstrike. They both worked alongside Dr. Rizk Abu Shaaira, the surgeon killed in the recent Israeli bombing, in which U.S.-made Boeing missiles were used. "That’s not complicity," said Dr. Feroze Sidhwa. "That's active participation in the murder of physicians and other healthcare workers.” ✍️ @theintercept theintercept.com/2026/11/13/…

The prospect of an economically independent US military would be frightening under any circumstances. But it becomes both more frightening and more likely with a Pentagon that Hegseth is reshaping in his own white Christian nationalist and misogynist image theintercept.com/2026/11/11/…
Pentagon, Inc.

Pentagon, Inc.

By buying up stakes in private companies, the Defense Department could become an independent, and vastly wealthy, behemoth.

Reminder: HUD legally cannot provide housing assistance to undocumented immigrants and people with temporary status. The people they are planning to kick out on to the streets are mostly U.S. citizens, tens of thousands of whom are children.

There will almost certainly be another effort to impeach Hegseth in the next Congress, if not sooner. His efforts to neuter the Fourth Estate may not be the lede, but they also shouldn’t be an afterthought. More from FPF’s @SethAStern in @theintercept: theintercept.com/2026/11/13/…
