Trump is ready to platform every regional crank and reactionary to try to portray Portland as a war zone. But he already lost this battle. He’s been exposed (again) as a brazen liar who will say anything to get what he wants. Trump doesn’t care about anyone, least of all the people of Portland

We were proud to join comrades across Europe and the world in Paris to demand an end to war and to strengthen international coordination against the genocide in Palestine. We join their call to say: Not a penny, not a weapon, not a human life for war!

2/5 The flotilla does not sail alone. Dockworkers in Italy have pledged: “If we lose contact with our comrades—even for 20 minutes—we will shut down all of Europe.” Across the world, the working class must be ready to defend the flotilla to the extent of our ability.

1/5 Two years into the US-backed Israeli genocide of Gaza, two million Gazans now face famine. The Global Sumud Flotilla is sailing to break the siege & deliver life-saving aid. With 50+ ships from 44 countries, it’s the largest convoy yet. DSA stands in solidarity, ready to act.
