@DanielLDavis1 There is no justification. Just as there was no justification for the invasion of Venezuela, and the war of choice on Iran. The U.S. has been conducting wars like this for almost 200 years, doesn't make it right, doesn't make it legal, and it's reprehensible war crimes

Is anyone even gonna ask the obvious question: why? Why has it become normal for America to go attacking and destroying and seizing other countries and taking their assets, without any justification? It goes beyond question that Cuba poses no threat to anyone. Why then, is military force on the table? Where is the legality, the justification, the morality… They are all absent, and this is just another naked power grab, of the alleged most powerful nation on the planet, trying to crush one of the smallest and weakest powers in this hemisphere. It is disgraceful and disgusting.

@ProudSocialist The First Amendment no longer exists. No free speech, no real free press, no separation of church and state

A Florida student was arrested and charged with a felony for making a joke about Netanyahu on Whatsapp. Not a single one of us is free when mocking a foreign leader and/or government that is committing genocide can land us in jail.

Know your vote, California!

It's time to call for a boycott of all the World Cup games scheduled to be played in the U.S. FIFA is already having trouble filling the stadiums and hotels, especially with foreign visitors understandably concerned about Trump administration harassment

BREAKING: Police arrest former U.S. service members and military families as they occupy the U.S. Capitol in protest of Trump’s war on Iran on Monday. The protestors are holding red tulips to honor the Iranians killed by the war.

Donald Trump thought he could score cheap political points by calling Bill LeRoy an “insult to Jesus” because the veteran catcher and captain of the Savannah Bananas is “beyond woke” and believes that God does not discriminate on the basis of gender. Standing in front of a roaring, sold-out Banana Ball crowd, LeRoy didn’t just clap back — he delivered a powerful, no-nonsense response that shook the stadium. “The president of the United States just said that I insulted Jesus,” LeRoy began, gripping the mic with calm intensity. “You want to know what’s a real insult to Jesus? Turning your back on people who need help while giving more to those who already have everything.” “You know what insults Jesus?” he continued, gesturing toward the crowd. “Separating families, shutting doors on those in need, and forgetting what ‘love thy neighbor’ actually means. That’s not the message I stand for — and it’s not the message this team stands for.” “You know what insults Jesus? Preaching values while ignoring compassion. Talking about faith while practicing division. That’s not faith — that’s politics dressed up as religion.” “I’m not a perfect Christian,” he said, a small smile crossing his face. “There’s only been one perfect man, and I’m not him. I’m just a catcher who believes in treating people right.” “Jesus told us to love our neighbors as ourselves… So why do we keep choosing hate, division, and fear instead?”

To the nurses at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago who will be voting soon to join NNU: You've got the power of 225,000 nurses fighting behind you! 💪

Que CANETADA ABSURDA do Presidente Lula desmascarando a extrema direita para o mundo. Uma frase mais perfeita que a outra: “Se dizem patriotas, mas põem a soberania à venda e pedem sanções contra o próprio país” “Proclamam defender a família, mas fecham os olhos para a violência contra as mulheres e o abuso sexual de crianças” “Se declaram donos da verdade, mas espalham mentiras e desinformação” “Se consideram homens de Deus, mas não têm amor ao próximo” “Falam em liberdade, mas perseguem quem é diferente” Perfeito 👏🏾

Union nurses showed up to the Frist Family Gala in Nashville to call out @HCAhealthcare, its executives, and the Frist Family for partnering with Palantir, the company behind data mining & surveillance operations for DHS While they party, nurses and our patients suffer. 😡

El Gobernador de Minnesota, @Tim_Walz reivindica en Barcelona la XV Brigada Internacional Abraham Lincoln, que se enfrentó al fascismo de Franco. Un ejemplo de memoria e internacionalismo. Porque la lucha contra el fascismo no entiende de fronteras. #GPM2026 🌹

@Villgecrazylady @DeanBaker13 Time for him to resign

“There’s no peace in the Middle East bc Palestinians refuse to believe in the Torah. The Torah says it’s our [Jews] land. And that’s why America must always stand with Israel.” Wow. He just came right out and said it.

Brazilian President Lula: The invasion of Iraq was a lie. Where are the weapons of mass destruction that Saddam Hussein supposedly had? They were never found. The invasion by France and England in Libya was another lie that caused enormous damage at that moment in our history. The invasion and the genocide carried out by Israel in Gaza is another very big lie. And now the bombing of Israel against Lebanon—on what pretext? And now the invasion by the United States against Iran—on what pretext?

Brazilian President Lula: Cuba has problems, but they are the problems of the Cuban people. It is not a problem for Lula, for Claudia, or for Trump—it is a problem for the Cuban people. Stop this damned blockade on Cuba and let the Cuban people live their lives.

Great place to sound out the world's greatest anti-fascist song!

The EU should absolutely do this - stop the subservience to the horrific genocidal policies of an expansionist, rogue state that has no respect for human life, human decency, or the sovereignty of its neighbors

@EoinHiggins_ Not a Maine resident, but I'm definitely rooting for @grahamformaine - when will the Democratic Party accept that the times they are a'changin' - new blood, new policies more in tune with their base and an electorate that is anti-war, anti-genocide

Janet Mills suggests she would have voted with John Fetterman against a Democratic resolution to restrict weapons aid to Israel pressherald.com/2026/04/17/jan…
