  1. Court case brought by 'Zionist federation' against respected journalist Mary Kostakidis discontinued..

    "Federal court proceedings brought by the 'Zionist Federation of Australia' (ZFA) against journalist Mary Kostakidis have been discontinued “by consent” with “no order as to costs”.

    Kostakidis said in a statement she had spent “two years doing nothing but preparing my defence in a case aimed at silencing me” and the discontinuation was a “win for every Australian who values our democratic right to freedom of political expression”.

    “I want to thank my fellow Australians who recognised the significance of what we stand to lose, stood with me and stepped up to assist me to launch my defence,” she said.

    “The purpose of journalism is to get to the truth – fearlessly – and to hold power to account. This is a win for press freedom, which has prevailed.

    “Watching a people livestream their own genocide while the international community responsible for creating this mess offers the victims sympathy and the perpetrators bombs, diplomatic cover and impunity, has been disgusting.”"

  2. Israel’s decision to bar British MPs exposes how far it will go to avoid scrutiny over its treatment of Palestinians.

    "Over my lifetime, it’s been my privilege to visit Palestine on several different occasions. I’ve witnessed what Palestinians endure on a daily basis. Endless checkpoints. Manned watchtowers. Arbitrary arrests. Violent settlers. This is the daily reality of apartheid, which dictates who can and cannot move freely. This is how Israel’s occupation operates, denying any vestige of autonomy to the occupied. This is the daily rhythm of Palestinian life.

    In Gaza, the Israeli occupation controls most of what goes in and out. Its illegal blockade has resulted in the mass starvation and displacement of Palestinians. As more and more people have woken up to the genocide in Gaza, Israel has also denied entry to UN investigators and international journalists – a transparent attempt to stop the world from finding out the full extent of the war crimes it has committed. Do not forget the thousands of Palestinian refugees, as well, who are still denied the right to return"

  3. "ICE has sent a documented immigrant from Somalia to the notorious detention camp at the U.S. naval base in Guantánamo Bay, Cuba.

    Adam Abdullah came to the U.S. as an asylum seeker in 2023. He had a valid work permit, Social Security number, no criminal history and was working as an auto mechanic in St. Paul, Minnesota, when federal agents arrested him last December at the start of Operation Metro Surge."

  4. "A state appeals court says Elon Musk’s SpaceX can be sued for discrimination against a female employee in California, where the giant aerospace company was then based ... She said the company later fired her in retaliation for helping to draft and circulate an open letter accusing SpaceX and Musk, its chief executive, of creating a hostile work environment for women that included sexual harassment":

  5. Couchfucker Vance soaked up "48" chants like a prom king with a stopwatch and no shame. Translation from Hillbilly Huckster: hush about the throne till I've got the keys. And if He becomes president, will anyone ever sit on the white house couch again?

  8. The same week, the counter-signals held: Cuba's self-ID law goes live 17 Sep (no court order, no surgery), Bulgaria's top court reopened legal gender recognition, and California's school-funding case stayed dismissed — the $44.3B threat gone.

    The clearest win? The people running the playbook told reporters it's failing to persuade.
