New York City: No to Trump's illegal kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro Protest at Federal Court Monday, Jan. 5 - 11:30 a.m. Foley Square, Manhattan

🚨 HAPPENING NOW! 📆 Jan 3, 2025 Protesters have gathered in Times Square, NYC, joining 75+ cities around the country in protest to say NO WAR ON VENEZUELA! “Money for jobs & education, not for war & occupation!”

And there ya have it… Officials from top Wall Street firms will be traveling to Venezuela to investigate “investment prospects” of the country. “The trip will feature about 20 officials from the finance, energy and defense sectors.”

VP Delcy Rodriguez, whom Trump indicated earlier today was collaborating with the US government, is live on television right now. Earlier reports that she's in Russia are false. She's in Caracas with the rest of the cabinet. Rodriguez: "We will never again be a colony for any empire"

Pete Hegseth is a prick

“We are going to run Venezuela” –Donald Trump Somewhere every pos Republican and Democratic pol and ilcapitalist press publisher is thanking him

Donald Trump and Cuban president Miguel Díaz-Canel both addressing their nations right now. Díaz-Canel suggests the vibrance of Latin America’s left and spirit of resistance. Trump suggests the decrepitude of a weekend at bernies fascism in the service of the imperialist political consensus.

If it’s true VP Delcy Rodriguez fled…

The wealthy and white Latines celebrating this, as if US imperialism doesn’t disdain of all Latines including its useful idiots

One of the many tells you can’t trust a corporate press rag is if they start answering the question of why the US abducted Maduro with all those bogus and bad faith charges the US has made, what a load of bullshit to set your framing on

Cubans got acoustic guitars on the stage for the continental revolution, @harikondabolu.bsky.social has no comment

Not to criticize @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social or @aoc.bsky.social at this moment, but this is why moderate socialist politicians in the US should stay mute when their positions are adjacent to the aggression of US imperialism, and one major skepticism leftists should retain of them

Even just continentally, the juxtaposition of bailing out a failing fascist regime in Argentina while invading and abducting the Venezuelan president and first lady, the arbitrary power of imperialism in the hands of neonazis accelerates so much of the barbarity of the imperialism in liberal times.

¡Nuestra America no se vende, nuestra America se defiende! Alerta, alerta, alerta que camina El antiimperialismo por America Latina

If it is only the usual suspects among the left and the indie and movement press that denounce US imperialism in Venezuela, then all talk about how Trump has mobilized vast swathes of the country against US government criminality was wrong. The liberals & fascists have isolated too much of the left.

The Atlantic is trash.

Simply heartbreaking. Both in imperialism’s brutality, its apparent initial success, and the lack of a significant anti-war movement against this imperial villainy.

If you’ve ever capped for or never exposed the US’ quarter century of every kind of aggression short of military against Venezuela, you really have no excuse criticizing Venezuela internally. It is absolutely the work of bolstering the current warring against Venezuela and its people

Keep the tree up at least through the twelve days, or you might get a nasty visit from three wise guys

After @mandophotos.bsky.social photographed federal agents pointing rifles at 26th/Lawndale yesterday, I inquired with DHS about what threat had prompted them to pull weapons on a busy commercial strip (pictured). This is the response I got from a representative of the United States government.

Don’t think ppl understand the terror the Feds are unleashing on the streets of LA right now. Roving patrols targeting vulnerable individuals. It’s horrible. There’s no one coming to save us except ourselves.

I feel like join a socialist group, organize with workers, run for state office, then run for mayor and *play a dhoom song* after your acceptance speech only for all of this to be a long con to do a massive heist in plain sight is the kind of thing hrithik roshan’s character might do in dhoom 2

The Left really gotta learn how to defend pols without giving them a break on their worst lapses.

As much as unions deserve an important seat in the new Mamadani administration, those that refused to endorse or barely lifted a finger should take get behind the nonprofit member-based organizations that actually fought like hell for his victory.

Fascism as the brutality of empire brought home, except we already had the domestic brutality and the empire is still waging genocidal or colonial wars across continents.

I used to always suggest people watch the Costa-Gavras movie Z as perhaps the best depiction of the rise of fascism in a narrative film, and everyday I wake up thinking about how far past that stage we are.

🚨 New directive NSPM-7 targets "anti-capitalism," “anti-Christian,” and “anti-American" opinions as indicators of extremist violence, authorizing an army of 4,000 counter-terrorism officers to prevent crimes that haven't happened: www.kenklippenstein.com/p/trumps-nsp...

Only good nazi’s a dead one.

Hundreds of anti-racist protesters surrounded and drove out a far-Right rally in #Toronto. Christie Pits is the site of the infamous showdown in "1933...that broke out between Nazi sympathizers and Jewish and Italian locals after gang members displayed a swastika flag during a softball game."

The way everyone made and then canceled tattoo appoinments today…

Grateful to have spoken w brilliant colleagues on the immediate weaponization of Kirk's killing. 1. My excellent colleague @akelalacy.bsky.social hosted @alibreland.bsky.social and me on @theintercept.com podcast. including dangers of hagiographies like Ezra Klein's theintercept.com/2025/09/12/b...

Jury is still out if the suspect is far left or far right. We just really know he’s extremely online, and his pig family hated his politics.

Mayhe the real false flags are the friends we made along the way

They put Inspector Clouseau in charge of the investigation, huh?

Y'all even the fucking literal Weimar liberals weren't mourning Horst Wessel. This is pathetic.

Charlie Kirk boosted doxxes of so many of us, posted the incitements against us in his own publications, hurled our names in his ugly mouth. He led an incitement machine for mass violence and targeted violence both. If you’re not glad he’s dead, you’re a good german and you should check yourself.

Deeply fascist country to its bones

I'm telling all of you that they are going to do what they ALWAYS do. What you do or do not say has no impact on what THEY WILL DO AND SAY. [just going to leave that here]

If you're arrested in Illinois protesting the planned ICE HQ in North Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected]. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.

Here's an old, unmasked photo of 7880. He's worked for the Chicago ICE field office since at least 2018 (when these photos were posted). If you believe you know his name, please reach out.

💔 Heartbreaking: ICE is snatching workers in Mount Pleasant, D.C. Neighbors shout back: “Get the fuck out of our city!”

and this happened
