🇺🇸 Thousands march through Times Square under “No Schumer, No Jeffries” signs after Democrats win the House and Senate
It's called "March for Our Democracy", and it celebrates the midterm results while pressuring the party’s incoming leadership.
Progressive groups are calling for contested votes instead of automatically returning Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries to their posts.
The split within the Democratic Party is now openly visible, even before the new Congress takes office.

The Chinese regime has expanded its presence in #Thailand’s media sector through strategic partnerships with Thai outlets and journalists, and attempted to silence stories it does not like by intimidating them. RSF spoke with numerous Thai journalists — most under condition of anonymity for fear of reprisals — about how these dynamics are affecting their reporting and shifting narratives in the Thai media landscape.

It’s hard to grasp the BBC’s systematic attempt to launder Israeli propaganda until you see the sheer scale of it. Here's a compilation of them doing it at 2x speed.
The latest was on Newsnight on 4 November. When Bernie Sanders called Israel’s government extremist, Victoria Derbyshire answered for it: “And the Israeli government would deny that they are extremists.”
As this video shows, BBC presenters repeatedly do this as guests describe Israel’s crimes: “Israel would say.” “Israel would deny.” “They would reject that.”
We counted 70 of these denials and justifications in 52 aired interviews. The BBC calls this impartiality. But in not one of those 52 did a presenter raise any of these words from Israel’s own leaders:
- “We are fighting human animals.” Yoav Gallant, 9 October 2023
- “It is an entire nation out there that is responsible.” Isaac Herzog, 12 October 2023
- “They will not receive a drop of water or a single battery until they leave the world.” Israel Katz, 13 October 2023
- “Remember what Amalek did to you.” Benjamin Netanyahu, 3 November 2023
- Starving two million people in Gaza until the hostages came back might be “justified and moral”. Bezalel Smotrich, 5 August 2024
On 10 October 2023, Tahani Mustafa told the BBC that Israeli forces were not distinguishing civilians from fighters. The presenter replied: “They would reject that.” Mustafa then had to bring up Gallant’s “human animals” herself. The BBC supplied the denial. The guest had to supply Israel’s own words.
That is cherry-picking. The Royal Charter requires the BBC to be impartial, and the public pays for it through the licence fee. In these interviews, it handed its audience Israel’s denials and left out its leaders’ own words, during a genocide streamed live to the world.
We have archived the BBC’s coverage for three years, and we are now counting all of it: 50,000 video clips and many more written excerpts.
We are calling this first part: "BBC: The Would Say Files".
Handing Israel its denials is only one of the ways the BBC launders Israeli propaganda, so we will count every other technique too. Over the next few weeks, we will announce each milestone as we complete the report.
These are the first results, with every clip, quote and source: newscord.org/editorials/bbc-…

Starlink terminals in Myanmar are going dead, and it's getting people killed.
Wrote about the spate of aid workers getting kicked off the Internet, the rumors of a @StateDept "whitelist", and why rebels in Myanmar don't put Starlink terminals on drones like Ukrainians.
Myanmar’s democratic government-in-exile uses Starlink to remotely run schools and hospitals in liberated areas. SpaceX’s motives for removing the terminals in the country are obscure economist.com/asia/2026/11/0…

Thailand is tightening security along its Myanmar border after stray rounds injured one civilian and damaged homes on October 29, while maintaining readiness on the Cambodian frontier.
Thai authorities have stepped up patrols and prepared evacuation plans and temporary reception areas, with the response also including a seven-day restriction on unofficial border trade in parts of Tak.
Army chief General Pana Klaewplodtook has instructed western-border commanders to prevent the Myanmar fighting from adding pressure on the Cambodian frontier, where troops are maintaining readiness through November and December.

The Ye Monster - People Defense Force has arrested a junta soldier alive from the notorious no. 316 artillery unit, which falls under the command of the No. 19 Regional headquarters in Ye Township, Mon State, southern Myanmar.
In a series of assertive confrontations, Ye Monster - PDF has reportedly eliminated multiple junta soldiers during intense clashes. These confrontations erupted as the junta army sought to launch an aggressive offensive against the committed local People Defense Forces, all in a desperate bid to seize control of the vital Dawei - Yangon highway.

If the purpose of engagement with Min Aung Hlaing and his regime of terror is "reduction of violence", neighboring and regional countries should enter those discussions with a clear understanding of who is committing violence against civilian populations (hint: its primarily the Myanmar military & MAL) and have identifiable metrics to measure against so they can hold the regime accountable.

Thai Dep-PM and Foreign Min @SihasakPh will visit Myanmar ahead of next week's ASEAN Leaders' Summit in Manila. He tells me on @ChannelNewsAsia that he expects further progress in the "reduction of violence" between the military rulers and the ethnic armed groups opposing them.

"I don’t want Jared Kushner to be investigated because he’s the president’s son-in-law. I want him investigated because he’s potentially laundered and embezzled $2 billion dollars in funds from the governments of Saudi Arabia and the UAE. I don’t want Stephen Miller investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who’s at the center of the Trump brain trust. I want him investigated because he’s a racist ghoul who has violated the due-process rights of millions of people and, potentially, directly violated court orders. I don’t want Pete Hegseth investigated because he’s a toxic psychopath who is unqualified to lead America’s military forces. I want him investigated because he’s a fucking murderer who needs to spend the rest of his life in jail, either in this country or The Hague." thenation.com/article/politi…

I've been in politics for a quarter century. It's hard to express how staggering it is to see a conversation like this on corporate US media. The Morning Joe panel gobsmacked by the directness of @AbdulElSayed's points.
