NO KINGS, NYC

7th Ave & Central Park South

As Trump attempts to control us, it is on us, the people, to show that we will fight to protect one another and our country. We are coming together again on March 28 because we know we can overcome this repression when we unite.

AOC: This is about actual crimes happening in front of us. This is about shredding the Constitution and plunging us into war. This is about taking crypto money and money laundering… So if you’re asking me if I’d support impeachment, I do

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

Lured by the promise of a better life. Given hard labor jobs in relentless heat. Your passport taken. Your rights taken. Complaining is against the law.

NEW: There seems to be an extraordinary suppression of videos documenting the damage in Israel. I wonder why.

This is Tel Aviv–Jaffa, in the Kirya area, opposite the Ministry of Defense tonight.

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflictβ€”and 9000
miles from North Americaβ€”makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

Every COVID infection adds risk, not protection. The more times someone is infected, the higher their risk of developing Long COVID.

Reducing infections is one of the most important ways to protect long-term health. The Five Pillars of Protection help lower risk by layering prevention strategies:

The US Has Enough Missiles for This War But Not the Next One The decline of missile stockpiles, which spurred the Department of Defense’s arm-twisting in January for Lockheed Martin Corp. and RTX Corp. to boost production, is worsening by the day.

Trump is burning through missile stockpiles as if the inventories were endless. And they aren’t. And China and Russia are watching.

Israel bombed a drawing on the asphalt and published the footage presenting it as a successful airstrike on an Iranian Mi-17 helicopter.

Iran is using anamorphic paintings on the ground to deceive US and Israeli attacks.

BREAKING: James Talarico wins the Democratic Senate primary in Texas.

Talarico ran on fighting corruption in DC, and winning back power for working people.

In an era of vast inequality Talarico told voters that β€œbillionaires are waging class warfare against the rest of us.”

The approximate cause of death for Anne Frank was the Nazis. The specific cause of death was the outbreak of Typhus at Bergen-Belsen camp, which overtook her (and others) from chronic malnutrition and medical abuse. These conditions are not, in character, unlike our system of immigration camps today

In Cuba, relentless US pressure tells in human suffering Trump’s oil blockade has driven the island’s long-standing humanitarian crisis to a new level. Cubans are running short of coping strategies.

The US blockade on oil shipments to Cuba is collective punishment; creating a full-blown humanitarian collapse. Healthcare, food systems, electricity, and public services are deteriorating rapidly and simultaneously. It’s the elderly and children suffering. www.thenewhumanitarian.org/news-feature...

If every person who has attempted or plans to attend a No Kings March votes Blue in the midterm election Congress can be retaken. Think about what this simple act can accomplish. Be sure you double check that you are registered to vote well in advance. US voting system is cooked

Ilhan Omar: Five steps to take in response to Operation Metro Surge "Nothing about what we witnessed was normal," U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar writes. "Where do we go from here?"

Trump’s β€œOperation Metro Surge” was a militarized campaign of fear that treated immigrants as criminals and weaponized the federal government against U.S. citizens.

We need independent investigations, real accountability, and to abolish ICE.

I've never seen anything like this before.

There are currently at least 14 (fourteen!) KC-135R Stratotankers on their way to the Middle East. Inbound from bases across the United States.

They're used to refuel other aircraft in the air.

U.S. & Israel are ratcheting up tension in this Middle East war. They’ve hit a ton of non-military sites now in Iran, and Iran has struck back hard at Israel, Dubai and Qatar especially. This is just going to get worse and will lead to a much wider conflict.
