This week on CounterSpin: You and I may know that the 2020 election was not stolen from Donald Trump through various mysterious sorts of skullduggery. That does not mean that we can whistle past the fact that many people who vote do believe that. Many of those people are activated in a way that goes beyond easily ignorable segments on OAN, and has meaning for November.

Dr. Adam Hamawy, a US Army combat surgeon who is one of three American doctors choosing to stay behind in the Gazan city of Rafah, called on President Joe Biden to help protect him and other aid workers in a new statement Saturday.

I have never in my career witnessed the level of atrocities and targeting of my medical colleagues as I have in Gaza,” Hamawy wrote.

He was among a group of 20 American doctors that arrived in Gaza on May 1 to serve patients at the European Hospital. Their planned May 13 departure was denied after Israel’s military offensive in Rafah shuttered a critical border crossing.

Governor Greg Abbott of Texas issued a full pardon on Thursday to a former US army sergeant convicted of murder for fatally shooting an armed demonstrator in 2020 during nationwide protests against police violence and racial injustice.

Abbott announced the pardon just minutes after the Texas board of pardons and paroles disclosed it had made a unanimous recommendation that Daniel Perry be pardoned and have his firearms rights restored. Perry has been held in state prison on a 25-year sentence since his conviction in 2023.

Era impensado que San Lorenzo dependiera de sí mismo. Hace un mes cuando Ruben Insua fue despedido y también a los 17 minutos del segundo tiempo, cuando Liverpool marcó el gol del empate. Un golpe que por un rato lo dejó groggy, aunque no lo noqueó. Por caso, una alegoría del rendimiento de este nuevo equipo de Leandro Romagnoli que aún está asentándose e intentando consolidarse. Pero que sin dudas cambió la cabeza: pese a los vaivenes siempre se siente capaz del milagro. Volvió a demostrarlo.
