People Planet Peace

Thank you to everyone who came out to our April Volunteer Day! We tabled throughout south Seattle talking to working people about how our campaign is fighting to tax the rich to fund free healthcare and against the endless wars of the Democratic and Republican parties. My opponent, pro-war pro-genocide Democratic Congressman Adam Smith, is funded by pro-Trump billionaires and has received over $1.3 million from AIPAC and other pro-genocide Zionist groups during his career. Our next Volunteer Day is on Saturday, May 2nd at 11:00am. Join us for the final push to collect signatures to get on the ballot, and then come out on Monday, May 4th for a press conference to turn them in and launch the next phase of our campaign! Sign up for these and other events on our website: kshamasawant.org/events/

BREAKING: @VanLathan endorses Butch Ware for governor. “I will be endorsing and supporting Butch Ware. If I have to write him in, I will.” Welcome to the movement.

So begins the largest veteran and military family act of civil disobedience since the Iraq war began, occupying the Cannon building Rotunda - protesting yet another forever war with Iran which includes the genocide in Palestine, the ethnic cleansing in southern Lebanon, and the potential ground operation in Cuba. Whatever violence we do overseas always comes back home and every war fought by this government is a war on the working class, which is you… we’re here until arrest or speaker Mike Johnson come out to answer for the dead and meet our demands. If you’re an active duty service member and do not wish to join the 5th US generation fighting in a senseless self-destructive war, immoral war for the rich, we will stand with you, there is a way out.

The Democrats Are Over

When National Nurses United asked me to take the Patients over Profits pledge, it was an easy "yes"! Our campaign is about getting our priorities in order, and no one in their right mind would prioritize profits over better health outcomes. Unfortunately insurance company executives and their bought politicians often do. Today, in addition to signing the pledge, I stopped by the Health Care for All Oregon (HCAO) town hall to hear about all the good work they are doing to bring universal health care to Oregon. Health care is a human right! #peopleplanetpeace

Bernie Sanders Is a Liberal Zionist Scumbag

Mesaage from Michael: Let’s support our community green spaces for they are vital for our well-being. Please go to dublinforcongress.com. Join our movement as we pump up the volume on people over pavement!

It's insane to obsess over nukes Iran *might* build in 15 years, instead of eliminating nukes Israel may well use next week.

Me: “Saikat Chakrabarti, your former Chief of Staff, is running to succeed Nancy Pelosi in Congress. You’ve yet to endorse, but are you monitoring the race?” AOC:

.@AOC is really good at raising money because donors don't perceive her as a threat to the status quo.

AOC doesn't directly take AIPAC money, but she still does Israel's bidding because her party takes it, and that's essentially the same thing.

Enabling Israel to commit war crime after war crime with impunity, we're effectively giving Israel the thumbs up to use nukes.

Saying the quiet part out loud.

As long as Democrats take money from AIPAC they aren't anti-genocide. As long as they take money from the health insurance industry they aren't pro Medicare for All. As long as they take money from oil and coal they aren't anti climate change. This list is endless.

Message from Michael: please don’t let them steal your ability to vote and your voice. Go to dublinforcongress.com to check your status and register to vote. Don’t let them convince you that your vote/voice doesn’t matter. If it didn’t matter, why do they fight against it?

Israel's trademark: destroying schools, health care workers, journalists and kids. If they're not held accountable for this depravity, they'll be using their nukes before long.
