It’s time to throw down for our union sister Rumeysa, a legal visa holder, Tufts grad student and SEIU member, who was snatched by ICE—can we count on you to fight #4The1st? 🔗🔗 seiu.co/3XIra25

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive. No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief. 1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

8yrs ago today, #Assad's regime dropped Sarin nerve gas onto #KhanSheikhoun in #Idlib -- killing 90+ civilians & injuring 500. 8yrs later, #Assad is gone & #Syria's transitional gov't is helping the OPCW remove & destroy #Syria's CW program.

Hof Mohamad Bazzi Steven Heydemann "If Syria is to have any chance at stability and order—to say nothing of societal harmony and political freedom—it needs a half-full public treasury and a national economic recovery. A fuller socioeconomic collapse will just make things worse—by every measure." Sam Heller | سام هيلر

Turkish bus company “Metro” (Turkey’s version of Greyhound) transporting jihadist fighters to to kill Syrian Druze in Suwayda Can’t get enough of Jolani’s inclusive Syria for all!

Not any female protestor. The wonderful Zena Shahla, a former detainee and one of our strongest voices against Assad and member of the official committee on missing people. And if she wasn’t any of those things, one of the kindest people in the world.

Sheikh Laith al-Balous, leader of the Men of Dignity movement, condemned the violence in Suwayda and blamed those dragging the Druze community into foreign conflicts. He affirmed the Druze are part of the Syrian people and urged locals to help protect civilians and support a

Syria: fighting has resumed in the city of Suwayda after sunni tribal fighters have entered the residential neighborhoods, completely disregarding the ceasefire that was agreed last night.

"The foundational lie upon which the Biden administration’s Gaza policy was based was that the enormous harm inflicted on civilians in Gaza was unintentional. The truth is that inflicting civilian harm is part of Israel’s strategy." foreignpolicy.com/2025/07/18/bid…

"DNI Gabbard is unaware" is just scratching the surface of that ignoramous' stupidity.

yet another troubling indicator about where Syria is headed.
