Ekrem İmamoğlu, the mayor of Istanbul and Erdogan's rival, was imprisoned in Marsh. He is now appealing to the judiciary and the public: his life and the lives of many other prisoners are in danger! #Turkey

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

How many of the police and soldiers attacking the protests have parents who emigrated to the United States? I'm guessing many. What an oxymoron situation.#LA

In 2010, Israel killed 10 activists in the #MaviMarmara, which was also on its way to #Gaza with supplies! A very nasty story that I hope will not be repeated now. #Greta #Madleen #FreedomFlotilla

This morning, many mayors and employees were arrested in raids on CHP municipalities across Turkey. These operations are seen as part of Erdoğan's intimidation policy and began two months ago with the arrest of Istanbul's mayor @ekremimamoglu.com

The rest of the world no longer trusts the US as a place to visit, trade and, now, study.

Trump has achieved the holy trinity of reputational suicide.

Att Sverige än idag exporterar krigsmateriel till Israel är bortom groteskt.

Australia Election 2025: Why did opposition leader Peter Dutton lose? A Trump effect and a lack of a coherent campaign saw opposition leader Peter Dutton lose the election.

The conservative wannabe-Trump opposition leaders in both Canada and Australia lost both their bids to become prime minister - but also their own seats!

To quote ⁦‪Rick Wilson‬⁩: everything Trump touches dies.

The documentary on the #Oklahomabombing is a story that repeats itself over and over in different forms and volumes. Two things are the same: white racists commit crimes, Middle Eastern men are immediately blamed! The ideas that dominated the far right back then are now in the White House!

Since March 19, more than 300 students/youth arrested during the demonstrations have been beaten by police and in prisons! Many of them have not been able to take their necessary medication! Families have come together to defend their children! The government is silent! #Tortyr #Turkey

Det finns många påståenden om hur han skadade den revolutionära rörelsen på 70-talet och till och med var en angivare - vilket ledde till gripandet av en revolutionär som senare dödades under tortyr!

Perincek är en clown, han har varit en opålitlig figur o hans namn dyker upp bland 68-generationen men mest som "förrädare", älskar konspirationsteorier! Först Kina-vänlig, nu Putin-vänlig. Hans rörelse tas inte på allvar förutom av en liten skara! Inte konstigt att de utnyttjar svenska rasister nu!
