"Seit über 600 Tagen wird die ganze Zeit bombardiert, Hilfslieferungen werden verhindert, Menschen sterben, Menschen verhungern. Es ist für uns sehr schwer zu verstehen, warum das zugelassen wird." Interview mit einem Arzt des medico-Partners PMRS in Gaza

It should be embarrassing for Democratic politicians not to have been arrested by ICE.

NYC Comptroller Brad Lander was just arrested by Trump’s ICE agents because he asked to see a judicial warrant. This is fascism and all New Yorkers must speak in one voice. Release him now.

This is a hero, and all democratic politicians should be doing this, and Fuck ICE.

The new Dispatch is here. @gambettiz.bsky.social discusses the current situation in Turkey and the origins of neoliberalism in authoritarianism.

Trump posted this deranged message ordering every federal agency, including the pentagon, to do mass deportations in major cities because of trans people. I wish I was joking.

Hi everyone I was denied entry, detained, and deported from the USA over the last 48 hours because of my reporting on the Columbia student protests I arrived back in Melbourne hours ago and had my phone handed back to me upon landing

God, this is so good. Shattering. Please read it. “The US is filled with “pretty nice guys” who are ready to inflict, who have already inflicted, senseless and life-shattering violence on innocent, impoverished people.“

Breaking News: A Minnesota lawmaker and her husband were fatally shot in what Gov. Tim Walz called a “politically motivated assassination.” A separate attack targeted a state senator, he said, and officials warned that the gunman was at large. Follow live updates.

Bisher regt sich nur verhaltener Protest gegen den Trump-Faschismus. Aber wer könnte Träger einer Gegenbewegung sein, fragt Daniel Loick.

She is saying, in effect: "We are going to liberate the city from its democratically elected leadership using the military"

The regime has arrested senators, judges, mayors, journalists and protesters, and the leader of the opposition party still doesn't know "what the hell is going on"

A sitting senator of the opposition party was handcuffed and forcibly removed from a government press conference

Die «Bastille» steht noch immer: Einmal mehr werden die grossen Konflikte der USA in Los Angeles ausgetragen. Es ist der Präsident, der hier in Chaos und Gewalt eine Chance sieht. Von @lukashermsmeier.bsky.social www.woz.ch/2524/prot...

What we're seeing in LA is just the start. This is going to be a long hot summer. Prepare accordingly.

Tom Homan: We are making Los Angeles safer. Mayor Bass should be thanking us. She says they are going to mobilize—guess what? We are already mobilizing. We are going to bring the National Guard in tonight

Resistance begins when conditions become intolerable: when there is no other pathway to improvement than radical social change. This is that moment.

Our discussion on Authoritarian Times is now online, in an English and a Spanish version.

Das Problem ist nicht die "Meinungsfreiheit". Das Problem ist dass die Dehumanisierung von Palästinsenser*innen so weit fortgeschritten ist, dass allein ihre Erwähnung Empörung erzeugt und nicht etwa die 500 Millionen Waffenexporte für einen genozidalen Krieg. #Palestine (+ ceterum censeo #ACAB).

Das ist das neue Normal. 20 Prozent Rechtsextreme im Saal, und die Person of Colour mit dem Palästina-Pulli aus dem Parlament verbannen.
