    Kamala vs corporate gigantism

    Harris says she will reduce inflation by attacking the price controls imposed by oligopolistic megacorporations.

    That is a great thing to do, but not easy. I would like to see what methods she proposes to use.

    Urgent: Billionaires' Republican Fascism

    Many US billionaires are donating millions to elect the insurrectionist because he has promised to help them take even more of America's wealth from the rest of us.

    If you know of an institution (or part of one) named after any of the billionaires mentioned in the video, for instance Steve Schwarzman, how about holding protests against his association with a convicted corrupt official that tried to steal a US election and openly threatens to try again.

    Simply pasting "Trump" or "Trumptool" over the name of his billionaire supporter might be a good start — but do expect to have to put that sign up again frequently.

    Another Gaza aid convoy attacked, ISR

    *Israeli military launches fatal airstrike on humanitarian aid convoy in Gaza.*

    This happened shortly after the attack on a World Food Programme aid convoy which led that organization to suspend operations in Gaza.

    The Israeli army says that unidentified gunmen were trying to hijack the lead vehicle, and that it attacked that vehicle all to protect the convoy. I don't know whether that actually happened, or whether the soldiers involved actually believed it. It could be mere after-the-fact bullshit fabricated as an excuse.

    But even if that really happened, shooting everyone in the lead vehicle was clearly not a sane response.

    Gaza food-aid car attacked, ISR

    *UN food agency [(World Food Programme)] suspends operations in Gaza after car [shot intentionally] at Israeli checkpoint.*
