In Gaza, families are bailing water out of their tents with pots and pans.

Floods have swept through the displacement camps. The rain makes a crisis that was already unbearable worse.

Humanitarian partners are working through the storm. They need more aid to get in, now.

Ro Khanna: "I believe that Chuck Schumer needs to go. The idea that you're going to have Chuck Schumer lead the party, I mean, come on! The guy was a cheerleader for the war in Iraq. You know, he's part of the system that has been compromised."

We need a full, independent inquiry into Britain’s involvement in Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

What a gross misuse of statistics...

For last 24 hours I’ve seen footage of horrific scenes from Gaza, just absolute human misery. Yet..it’s not there on any news outlet’s home pages, not discussed on our witless political shows. We’re just going to ignore it? Is that the plan?

If Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer end up being the House and Senate majority leaders, they will enter those positions being MASSIVELY UNPOPULAR according to their favorability.

Chuck Schumer:
🟩 Favorable: 15%
🟥 Unfavorable: 68%
⬜️ Net Favorability: 🚨-53%

Hakeem Jeffries
vorable: 56%
⬜️ Net Favorability: 🚨-33%

This is why we need NEW LEADERSHIP!

13% and 18% approval ratings.

⚡️More than 1 million people are calling for House Democrats to choose someone other than Hakeem Jeffries as Speaker

Chuck Schumer, uber warmonger.

Back in early June 2025, when it looked like Trump might not attack Iran, Schumer attacked the prospect of peace. It’s way worse than he hasn’t stopped Trump from war, he’s pushed for aggression:

“When it comes to negotiating with the terrorist mp's all over the lot. One day he sounds tough, the next day he's backing off. And now all of a sudden we find out that Witkoff and Rubio are negotiating a secret side deal with Iran. What kind of bull is this? They're going to sound tough in public and then have a side deal that lets Iran get away with everything? That's outrageous. We need to make that side deal public. Any side deal should be before Congress and, most importantly, the American people. If TACO Trump is already folding on Iran, the American people need to know about it. No side deals.”

‘Anti-Fascist Economics demonstrates that market fundamentalism is a severe threat to democracy.’
