Russia just announced it is changing its rules on nuclear war and nuclear weapons. Why? The United States just sent long range missiles to Ukraine and gave Ukraine permission to strike deep inside of Russia with them. It’s a VERY dangerous decision that is already having ripple effects around the world.

You don’t learn nearly as much about people in victory as you do in defeat. And what we are seeing, in defeat, is tens of thousands of Kamala Harris supporters now being so heartless and callous that they are publicly turning on Palestinians and Muslims and saying they no longer care about the genocide. Like WHAT?!?
I call this “transactional activism,” but that’s being generous. Let me unpack and explain it

You have every right to be disappointed that Trump won. It’s ok to be sad. And it’s certainly OK to be concerned. But I see people that have allowed legitimate fears turn into delusional and irrational hysteria. And it’s traumatizing children. Let me unpack and explain it.

Today is one of those days where all I know to do is pray. And to ask you to pray as well. Palestinian leadership has sent in their framework for what the need for a ceasefire and now the nations at the table will HAVE to find a way to make it work. Please pray for their success, OK?
And, as we speak, the Israeli military has surrounded one of the last remaining hospitals in Gaza, and are killing anyone that comes or goes. Some of my closest friends in Gaza are in there right now. Please also pray for them!

Every night is horrible in Gaza. Without fail. But somehow, last night was one of the worst ever as Israel and the United States bombed refugee camps all over Rafah, in Southern Gaza. Over 1.6 million Palestinians have crammed into a community meant for 150,000 people - after they were told it was a safe zone, but now they are being bombed endlessly.
And the fallout is beyond words. What I saw last night took my breath away.
Let me unpack and explain it.

Last week the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel is committing genocide and, in essence, ordered them to stop all genocidal actions, genocidal speech, and to open up ports for humanitarian aid. And gave them 30 days to do so.
We are now within that 30 day period and Israel is in full, open defiance of every one of those orders. The genocide is in full force. The question now is this: what will the ICJ, and the rest of the world, do about it?
Let me unpack and explain it.
