We need an Apollo Project to land our houseless residents in housing, as we landed a man on the moon in 10 yrs in the 60's. Just 1% of our defense budget per yr would do it in CA in 12 yrs. @HousingNowCA bloomberg.com/news/articles/….

⭕️ Israel's election authority has rejected Likud's claim that Arab parties "stole" Tuesday's election. 🔹Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's party claimed the vote was "stolen by Arab parties that support terrorism and the destruction of the Jewish state" and called for police and Shin Bet investigations. 🔹But Dean Livne, acting director general of the Central Elections Committee, told public broadcaster Kan there was no sign Arab parties gained votes unlawfully. A senior police official told Haaretz the claims were baseless, noting fewer complaints of irregularities than in past elections. 🔹With about 97% of votes counted, Netanyahu's bloc has 53 seats and the opposition 48, while Arab parties won a record 19, according to the committee. Turnout hit 77.7%, the highest since 1999, and about 80% in Arab communities. 🔹Democrats leader Yair Golan accused Netanyahu of trying to "undermine the election results through an ugly delegitimization campaign."
BREAKING | Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his Likud party claimed Wednesday that the election was “stolen” by Arab parties, accusing them of bribery, intimidation, voter fraud and using prohibited software to mobilize voters, without publicly presenting evidence of widespread election theft. ➤ Israel’s Central Elections Committee said Tuesday it had found no evidence of systematic ballot tampering. Likud claims to possess hundreds of testimonies and pieces of evidence but has not made them public. ➤ Before voting even began, Channel 12 and Haaretz reported that Likud officials had discussed alleging the election was “stolen” if Netanyahu failed to win. ➤ The accusations follow a surge in Palestinian voter turnout, with Arab parties projected to win 19 seats and Netanyahu’s bloc just 53, eight short of a majority.

Hi, I'm free. Beat up but fine. Police stole my phone. Settlers punched me in the face several times, likely broke @AdeleShoko's wrist and gave @the_andrey_x a concussion. They threatened to shoot us with an assault rifle over and over. Will tell the full story later, but for now, I just want to be clear about what happened. We witnessed two settlers locking a military gate in Umm al-Khair, blocking the only way to more than twenty Palestinian communities: trapping families inside, preventing students from reaching school and workers from their jobs, blocking delivery of food and access to ambulances, etc. It's a crime that the military has this ability at all--but last night, we discovered that random settler terrorists also have the key. We confronted them and began asking questions on camera, and they nearly murdered us for it. When the police finally arrived, they arrested Andrey and me and charged us with assault. The gate is still locked.

Greed, simply put. The racing industry is dying, so push to get as much financially out of it as possible before it completely sinks

Tragically Silas passed yesterday due to poor health upon arrival. We’re thankful to share Grace is doing well despite this heartbreaking loss. This case has a connection to the EKY neglect case &it’s why MMS broke their rule of not dealing with killpens.Please consider donating.
Helping partner 501c3’s is what we do. Please consider a donation of any amount to our friends at Magical Menagerie Sanctuary at Thestral Farms who just rescued a bonded pair-an STB x gelding & a TB mare from a very tough case. thestralfarms.org/magical-me… thestralfarms.org/magical-me…

🚨 Why push for more foals while TBs already bred are waiting for rescue from feedlots? The industry needs a dedicated emergency fund, verified ownership transfers & lifetime traceability. How long must rescues & the public keep picking up the bill? @jockeyclub
🔥🔥🔥🚨🚨🚨🆘🆘🆘🆘👉 Poster 10-25-26. So many Thoroughbreds need help and there are no industry funds to help them. How can that be acceptable? It isn't. Contact the Jockey Club, Breeders Cup, National HBPA, NTRA, TOBA and many other industry entities and ask them why they do nothing to help Thoroughbreds in the auction/slaughter pipeline. Ask them why they think it is ok for these horses to linger at feedlots. Ask them why they promote breeding more horses but have not taken care of this issue first of not providing any Emergency Fund or programs for TB's that end up in the lower end/auction slaughter pipeline.❓ @jockeyclub @BreedersCup @LightUpRacing @EponaInitiative @theTDN @PastTheWire @ThoroughbredRA @TheNYRA @NTRA @nationalhbpa @hisa_us @RepoleStable @PatCummingsNTA @AnitaMotion @santaanitapark @ChurchillDowns @KYTbred @KyHBPA @louisianabred @KateMaddenSC

Journalist Jasper Nathaniel and activist Andrey X have been released after their arrest in the occupied West Bank. They have been banned from the territory for 60 days, according to activist Adele Shoko. Photos via @AdeleShoko
LATEST UPDATE: Andrey and Jasper have been released, but they’ve been banned from the West Bank for 60 days. This is a clear example of Israel trying to prevent us from covering the terror it commits in the West Bank.

Research engineer Sofia Liguori resigned from Google's DeepMind this month over the company's AI technology being increasingly integrated into military and surveillance systems, particularly as part of Israel's war in Gaza. While there has been a wave of high-profile resignations from tech companies over fears that AI might someday turn against humanity, Liguori says the "superintelligent god killing us all" narrative serves to distract from more immediate harms posed by the technology.

Months before Dolores Huerta's death, as a New York Times investigation revealed Cesar Chavez's history of sexual abuse of women and girls involved in the farmworkers movement, Huerta revealed that she, too, had been raped by Chavez in the 1960s. Huerta said the assaults led to the births of two of her children. She concealed the pregnancies and had kept the children's paternity secret. Journalist Maria Hinojosa, who spoke with Huerta about this painful chapter in her life, says the labor icon felt immense pressure to stay silent about the abuse in order to protect the movement she had devoted her life to.
