Hasan Piker on the hypocrisy of how right-wingers are treating the women of the I've Had It Podcast. Hasan is fucking correct: "You can't do a decade of George Floyd memes and a meme about every single person that has been killed at the hands of the police and traffic in such vitriolic sentiment, and then turn around and expect the opposing side to be nice to your podcast guy. It's ridiculous. It's fucking ridiculous."

¿por qué les dicen libertarios a esta mierda de seres humanos? entiendo que así se llama su “movimiento” pero las palabras pesan y los ponen de un lado de la balanza… como si su ideal fuera el correcto al llamarse así. sucede lo mismo con los “pro-vida” está bien cargado de positivismo
"Soy anti-putos. Los vamos a matar a todos los putos de la Argentina. Preguntale al presidente" Un libertario atacó en la calle a una persona en nombre de Javier Milei. Total normalidad

virtually every democrat regardless of faction ran against the establishment, if they do not deliver tangible & immediate changes inside the party like appointing dynamic leaders that will echo the fighting spirit the moment requires, we will lose the momentum - voters will see this as a betrayal. no amount of msm narratives around schumer's tactical prowess will change this. there's a reason why both hakeem & chuck are unpopular among dem voters. we didn't forget how they maneuvered around the last two years. we also have to destroy the seniority structure in the party & appoint competent people to the right committees!! zohran proved that a young dynamic figure can reshape the entire political landscape! i am very worried that "insider politics" and corporate focused leadership decisions is going to take us back to business as usual politics when we voted for CHANGE. we voted for a FIGHT. we voted for ACCOUNTABILITY.

Left-wing streamer Hasan Piker drew 1.75 million hours of watch time during the midterms, attracting a largely young male audience. In an NBC News interview, Piker discusses young men's shift toward Democrats, with exit polls showing gains among voters who favored Trump in 2024. nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/h…

Daughter of right-wing Paraguay president Santiago Peña, who just resigned over crashing the economy and stealing half the country's savings, posted this story of herself with a shirt saying "Tax the Poor." She goes to Columbia U btw, where tuition is 20x the average salary.

O New York Times teve a coragem de fazer algo que nenhum local teve: Eles convidaram o Flávio para uma entrevista sem censuras, deixaram ele falar e, na reportagem completa, apontaram todos os absurdos logo depois de cada citação e, ainda, pintaram ele de fujão e a família de conspiracionista. E ainda expuseram todas as acusações que ele, o irmão e o pai enfrentam. De cabo, aproveitaram pra lembrar aos leitores que o pai dele está preso por (com todas as letras) tentar dar um golpe de Estado após perder as eleições para Lula, e que ele alimentou teorias da conspiração sobre o sistema eleitoral. Num truque de mestre, toda a reportagem foi iniciada e conduzida por um plano de fundo de crítica ao Trump e a forma como ele está lidando com a situação. Quase num lembrete ao leitor de que “esse é o tipo de coisa que o presidente permite que aconteça com a ajuda do governo dos EUA”. Deram corda pro cara se enforcar e ele caiu igual um pato. nytimes.com/2026/11/05/world…

Jennifer Welch defended Hasan Piker and called out the fact that the constant media smears and slander about him are because of Hasan's anti-Israel stance: "I just encourage anybody, if you hear anybody in the news that claims to be independent-minded and they are laser focused on Hasan Piker, do some digging. What do they often post Hasan for? Oh, he's critical of Israel. That's what the whole thing is about. You cannot censor American citizens' ability to critique a foreign government. I'm sick of it. I'm sick of the threats of being called a bigot because I want to criticize the country of Israel."

A historic day for California and human rights. Following calls from Clemency California, @amnestyusa, and over 40 organizations, Governor Newsom has taken a powerful step away from the death penalty. The death penalty is the ultimate cruel, inhuman, and degrading punishment. Today’s decision shows that progress is possible. Now the goal is clear, abolition everywhere.

Circula desde hace algunas horas un video de Luis de Llano que pretende presentarse como una disculpa pública hacia mí. Ésa no es la disculpa que le ordenó publicar el tribunal y cuyo texto quedó firme desde enero de este año. La disculpa que debe ofrecer reconoce expresamente que a mis 14 años yo no podía consentir una relación con él, que actuó desde una posición de poder y que mis padres no fueron cómplices. Nada de eso aparece en el video que publicó. Además, Luis de Llano tiene prohibido volver a mencionarme públicamente —salvo en los términos exactos de la disculpa ordenada judicialmente—. Al publicar este video, ha incurrido en un nuevo incumplimiento de la sentencia. Llevo casi cinco años litigando este asunto por la vía civil. A partir de ahora, Zinser y Asociados será también mi equipo de abogados en materia penal. Luis de Ya No #LuisdeYaNo

Que esta jota panista fuera —además— islamofóbica, no estaba en mi bingo card debo confesar.
Después de ver lo que pasó en EUA, ya no veo con tan malos ojos que las personas que aspiren a la Presidencia de la República, gubernaturas estatales o a la Jefatura de Gobierno de la CDMX sean mexicanos con nacionalidad única. theguardian.com/us-news/2026…

Condenamos los crímenes de odio contra trabajadoras sexuales trans en Palermo, Buenos Aires. Ningún prejuicio justifica la violencia. Ninguna ocupación justifica la impunidad. Hacemos un llamado a la @OEA_oficial y a la @CIDH, al Gobierno de México (@SRE_mx) para que sostenga una postura clara, y a la @EmbArgMex para que transmita nuestra preocupación y nuestra exigencia de justicia. Invitamos a todas las redes de abogacía e incidencia de América Latina y el Caribe a sumarse a estas demandas.

En 2006, el entonces presidente Vicente Fox fue el articulador del fraude electoral. Lo confesó en una entrevista en días recientes. ¿Esa es la democracia a la que quieren regresar? ¿La de los fraudes electorales? Eso no va a pasar, porque el pueblo está más consciente que nunca y defiende su derecho a decidir el presente y el futuro de la nación.

Una década perdida y años de dolor innecesarios para que este sinvergüenza salga a admitir tan campante que él orquestó el fraude de 2006. Que la derecha de este país nunca se atreva otra vez a vender cuentos sobre su compromiso con la democracia.

Los módulos y oficinas de atención ciudadana, y los recursos de diputados y diputadas en el legislativo; no pueden capitalizar el dolor y miedo de las víctimas; que se acercan a ellos ante un claro vacío institucional del ejecutivo. Mínima prudencia y sensibilidad. 🤢

SIR PATRICK STEWART (1940-2026) Before everything else, Patrick was defined by being born and bred in Yorkshire, the proud county in the north of England which he loved to the end. You could hear it in his accented voice and in the stern honesty with which he told you what he thought and felt. Yorkshiremen have no truck with half-truths or avoidance of big issues. He wore his heart on his sleeve, which made him a man to rely on, to admire and in my case, love. We first met as ambitious young actors with the Royal Shakespeare Company half a century ago but we weren’t in the same productions. My first strong memory was a few years later, meeting him in the street in central London when he told me about an offer to take over a leading part in 'Star Trek'. “But Patrick think of your stage career in the UK. Do you really want to risk—getting lost in Hollywood for years and years?”. Well, he took the risk and thank goodness for us all that he did for not just his devoted Trekkies but film and theatre audiences, who marvelled at his using international celebrity to star in a string of cinema successes ('X-Men' of course) and in great classical plays by Shakespeare, Ibsen, Arthur Miller, Peter Shaffer, Pinter and Beckett at Stratford-upon-Avon, in London’s West End and on Broadway. America was his adopted home, where he met his adored Sunny who has cared for him through sickness and health, through thick and thin. But he never forsook his origins: and the proudest achievement of the most respected and beloved actor of his generation on either side of the Atlantic, was his appointment as Chancellor of Huddersfield University in Yorkshire. His farewell performance in 'Avengers: Doomsday' is yet to be seen. Ian McKellen 29 October 2026 Photo: University of Huddersfield

Rep. Ritchie Torres (D-NY), who represents New York’s 15th Congressional District in the Bronx, was filmed telling a young voter to “go fuck yourself.”
Today in the Bronx, a group of young people confronted Ritchie Torres about his pro-ICE record, and the money he takes from AIPAC and the rest of the pro-Israel lobby. Instead of listening, he cursed them out. Here are the facts. Ritchie Torres has taken over $2 million from the pro-Israel lobby. He voted for the Laken Riley Act, the first law Trump signed this term. It enables ICE to lock up undocumented immigrants who have only been accused of a crime, not convicted, even for something as small as shoplifting. Then he voted for a resolution thanking ICE for “protecting the homeland.” But Ritchie Torres is the symptom, not the disease. For over 20 years, Democrats have voted with Republicans to fund ICE while promising to deliver on “comprehensive immigration reform” that never came. That’s how we got the deportation machine we’re living under today. That same machine came for Alexander Nilaj, a pillar of our community who built the Open Hand food pantry right here in the Bronx. On October 13, ICE kidnapped him and took him to Delaney Hall. Without him, the pantry has stopped giving out food. Ritchie Torres has visited Alexander at Delaney Hall, but he and the Democrats helped build the very same machine that put Alexander there. The Bronx is sick of ICE tearing our neighborhoods apart. The Bronx doesn’t want more meaningless measures like Ritchie’s proposal to put QR codes on ICE agents. The Bronx wants ICE out of our communities for good. The Bronx deserves leaders who will fight for full rights for every immigrant, now — not as a distant promise. The Bronx needs and deserves socialism: a system where working people hold the political and economic power, and where billions go to housing, healthcare, and childcare instead of ICE and endless wars abroad.

We mourn the passing of Dolores Huerta, a towering figure in the history of Mexican Americans and the struggle for civil rights in the United States. For more than six decades, she fought for the dignity of farmworkers, helped secure better wages and working conditions, and opened doors for generations of Latinos and women to make their voices heard. Her legacy extends far beyond the labor movement. She helped transform American society through the power of peaceful organizing and civic participation. Her lifelong commitment to justice, equality, and opportunity will continue to inspire generations to come. nytimes.com/2026/10/28/us/do…
