Look at their equipment. This is an occupying army prepared to injure or even kill whoever stands in their way as they kidnap and brutalize our friends and neighbors. They are everything that they pretend to be protecting us from. Thank you to those who stood up to them in Minneapolis today.

The people, united, will never be defeated. When we get together in sufficient numbers, the mercenaries of the state cannot stop us. This is the only reason we are no longer ruled by kings—the reason slavery was abolished—the reason the current regime will fall. crimethinc.com/antipolice2025

The only way to make sense of the actions of the Israeli military is that they are intentionally and systematically carrying out genocide against the people of Gaza right up to the limit imposed by the Israeli government's dependence on international support. crimethinc.com/GazaGenocide

We honor the life of Colin Jerwood, singer of the anarcho-punk band Conflict, who contributed to the resurgence of combative anarchism in the 1980s. "The more you oppress the more we'll resist We will win because we have to, we've got nothing to lose no more" -Conflict, "The Ungovernable Force"

"The Dred Scott decision should make an anarchist out of any person of good conscience: for either one is bound to abide by the decisions of the Supreme Court, the highest law in the land, or one is bound to abide by one’s own conscience regardless of what any court rules." cwc.im/Fergusontime...

The primary target of ICE is the undocumented—anyone they can get their hands on to satisfy the bloodlust and bigotry of their supporters. But the secondary target is your ability to empathize with other human beings. Once they wear that away, they will expand their repression to target more of us.

Elon Musk is leaving Washington, DC with a black eye but by no means beaten. His misfortunes show that we can shape history—and illustrate the fault lines within Trump's administration. Let's keep up the pressure. But remember, the real problem is the system that concentrated power in his hands.

Today is the birthday of the Russian anarchist Mikhail Bakunin. A Russian comrade of ours prepared this photoessay and virtual tour of his birthplace and family home, including the museum documenting his life and the lives of his relatives and friends—since it's not easy to visit Russia nowadays.

Louise Michel was a 40-year-old schoolteacher when the Paris Commune broke out. She fought in the front lines, was sentenced to life in exile, supported an anti-colonial uprising in New Caledonia, and dedicated her life to anarchist resistance. Today is her birthday. crimethinc.com/MichelCaledo...

Five years ago today, after Minneapolis police murdered George Floyd, demonstrators forced them to abandon the Third Precinct and set it on fire—a profound act of solidarity and faith in the possibility of social change. This account describes how they did it: crimethinc.com/thirdprecinct

To observe the five-year anniversary of the burning of the Third Precinct at the beginning of the George Floyd Revolt, we've prepared a timeline tracing the trajectory of anarchist contributions to uprisings against the police from the Rodney King riots of 1992 to the 2020 uprising in Minneapolis.

"Private military contractors who operated in Peshawar are now working in Ferguson alongside tanks that rolled through Baghdad. For the time being, this is limited to the poorest, Blackest neighborhoods; but what seems exceptional in Ferguson today will be commonplace around the country tomorrow." 🧵

Donald Trump's plan to waste tens of millions of taxpayer dollars to throw a military parade on his birthday this June isn't just the whim of an aging autocrat. It is intended to send the message that we live in an authoritarian dictatorship. Every mercenary who serves him is an enemy of humanity.

In other words, fears about "defunding the police" are overblown. What actually happens is ... police defund you.

As Donald Trump's tariff plans destabilize the global economy, his henchmen have spun tales about how he wants to bring industry back to the US. The truth is that—like his fake concerns about "antisemitism"—tariffs are simply a tool with which he can exert leverage for his own personal gain.

It's no secret why police continue murdering civilians at ever-increasing rates. They can do this because after the 2020 uprising, Democrats around the country sided with the police against everyone else, preserving police impunity and rendering the arrival of today's police state inevitable. #ACAB

We honor the life of Sebastião Salgado, who passed away yesterday. Our Brazilian comrades introduced us to his photography twenty-five years ago. You may have seen it in some of our efforts. Again and again, in illuminating social struggles around the world, Salgado took the side of the oppressed.

In theory, it would be possible to tabulate how many words a news publication like the New York Times puts towards humanizing casualties of different ethnicities or nationalities—say, for example, Palestinians and Israelis—in order to produce a numerical measure of how biased its coverage is.

In the past 24 hours, Israeli forces have reportedly murdered at least 93 people in Gaza. Israeli soldiers were caught on video shooting at foreign diplomats in the occupied West Bank. Hundreds of thousands in Gaza are on the brink of starving to death. Let's keep things in perspective.

Absurdly, centrist Democrats are finally asking why it took so long to address Joe Biden's senility. This is the wrong question. The question is why—today, right now—are they still trying to conceal the reality of our situation, just as they did under Biden? crimethinc.com/BidenDoomed 🧵⬇️
