So happy to wake up and listen to this over NYT’s both sides coverage of “no kings” and their pro occupation propaganda.

I very much hate the use of ‘whatifery’. “Can you imagine the reaction if Joe Biden had…. “.

It serves no purpose. It’s like saying ‘What if your aunt had balls?” She would be my uncle!

There’s a lot of things Joe Biden wouldn’t do in comparison to Donald Trump. After all Joe is a decent human being. Leave him out of the comparisons. Compare Trump to the evil villains of history who are narcissistic sociopathic pedophiles with homicidal tendencies.

Thank you. I am very glad to be getting some reliable news. Reporting from Gaza is essential, - and perhaps, a few words for Sudan?

Mehdi & the Zeteo Team: I LOVE this layout! This feels like what I wanted so badly, to sort of streamline the faucet of important, silly, crucial, nutty stuff that is constantly going on these days. I like that it's a mix of visual & text to keep me going with things (I feel like it's enough to want to know more but not too much that I want to start skimming). This is so excellent! Thank you so much for doing this, I'm so excited with this going forward. I will be sharing with my ppl.

Alright. Finally a morning newsletter that doesn't make my coffee taste bitter and gets me informed at the same time! I see my future clearly, unsubscribing from morning "news"letters that raise my blood pressure. Thank you Mehdi and Zeteo!

Great speech at No Kings Day in DC, Mehdi! For everyone asking, what's next, mark your calendars to be in the streets again on Nov 5th. Yes, a Wednesday and the first anniversary of Trump's election. It's the launch date of sustained nonviolent protests in the Capitol that don't stop until their one unifying demand is met: Trump Must Go Now. Think "color" revolutions, South Koreans' peaceful removal of not one but two would be dictators. Waiting for future and rigged elections to remove a fascist who's already attempted a coup in 2020 is delusional. Go to Refuse Fascism.org to get involved. The future quite literally depends on what we do now.

Unless the United Nations passes a bill for a sovereign Palestinian state with its original boundaries, and orders payment of losses inflicted on the Palestinians, which should be endorsed by Trump, there can be no peace and no justice. Even this would not make up for the losses --human and material--inflicted by the mass murderer, Israel !!Trump was a party to the genocide so he should also be liable to pay!! No murderers should even dream of Nobel Prizes

or another presidential terms!!

Thanks for this ! I’m a Zeteo supporter. Mainstream media has fallen so far short and ignores, whitewashes or both sides what it does report

It is hard for me to keep track of everything that Zeteo posts, but in one of its posts people were bragging about what GREAT DEBATERS THEY ARE including the Zeteo, Mr. Ben group!!! First of all if you are debating against stupid people, then this does not make you a great debater, that should be obvious. Secondly bragging about your debating skills does not impress me or anyone I know. If you are indeed are a great debater YOU WILL NOT BRAG ABOUT IT!!! Like Abe Lincoln who was a great debater, you will just debate and let the results speak for themselves!!! Lincoln never bragged about his skills and he was one of the best orators/debaters that ever lived. Bragging about making a cake that tastes good is not impressive unless you can actually MAKE A CAKE THAT TASTES GOOD AND LET ME TASTE IT FOR MYSELF!!!!

One thing I would point out about your comments today Mehdi. You mention information released by the "palestinian government office". I am not sure most of us are aware of such an office. If we are, it isn't clear what to make of their information and its veracity. What is this government and do you believe what they say?
