Hmph. Sounds like Luigi’s trial is already a mistrial. Is that what was? Revealing evidence on tv before trial to get a mistrial so as to keep Luigi locked up indefinitely? I guess cops don’t know the law anymore. What’s going on? www.instagram.com/reel/DGWWSml...

A young Palestinian man has been killed by an Israeli sniper while inspecting his agricultural land on al-Shaaf Street, east of Gaza City in the northern part of the enclave, according to the Wafa news agency. 🔴 LIVE updates ⤵️

#OtD 23 Feb 1932 a riot broke out on Old Market Street in Bristol during a protest against the government's 10% cut to unemployment benefits in the middle of the Great Depression. 3-15,000 people were attacked by police but they fought back stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9...

Are you struggling with poverty, low wages, insecure job? Neoliberals have an answer. They want govt to encourage you to speculate on the stock market, buy/sell shares with illusion of riches. Part of the right wing coup to distract people from reality, produce corporate foot-soldiers.

The economics profession presents an idealised version of the economy, as beautiful as Dorian Gray’s unchanging face. The actual economy is increasingly ugly, like his portrait: marked by oligarchs and the underclass, the looting of poor countries, and the industrial-scale gobbling up of the planet

“After Brexit, the fantasists who promoted withdrawal from EU were lost in a dream that Britain could join an “Anglosphere” dominated by the United States – a delusion the actual United States never showed smallest interest in sharing” @nickcohen.bsky.social nickcohen.substack.com/p/can-europe...

Imagine the movie "Children of Men," but instead of protecting the last fertile woman in the UK, it's the last man without a receeding hairline in America. This still shot should help build the the picture in your minds eye

Augsburg, 15000 people protested the far right

Imagine being a federal worker and asked what you’ve done this week by an unelected billionaire nepo baby whose dad owned a fucking emerald mine and whose only achievement is taking credit for other peoples work, as the dept which used to handle your workers rights is dismantled by him.

UK competition regulator fines Citi, HSBC, Morgan Stanley, Royal Bank of Canada, Deutsche Bank £100m for breaching competition law. All have history of abuses. No one prosecuted, no personal fines. Puny fines don't deter, will be passed to customers.

Rise up and overthrow whatever fascist state you exist under. Prepare, Organize, Strike.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Enjoyed speaking to Warwick’s History Department about my journey into politics & my experiences as a young woman of colour. As I said, from the Chartists & suffragettes to today’s fights for fair pay & renters’ rights, we know that progress is won through collective struggle. Onwards! ✊🏽

Busy week

Just your regular reminder that public ownership is hugely popular. ✅ #PublicOwnership

This idea of the US being the ‘Land of the Free’ has always been ridiculous, especially when you remember their very recent history. Trump and the Gang are just playing up the the same ‘values’ that those who shout the loudest have always had.

Happy #SocialistSunday

Happening now: Israeli tanks have entered the northern West Bank after 40,000 Palestinians were expelled from three refugee camps in the Jenin & Tulkarm areas. There's a real and present danger that these camps will be erased. This genocide must be stopped. By us all. Now!

And I am an ally. If you are too, let the world know.

Trump's attacks on the USPS aren't new. For decades, the GOP has been trying to privatize the Post Office and other crucial public services — all to pad the profits of their wealthy corporate donors.

Boycott American products. Boycott anyone that advertises on GB News. Simple direct action that hits them where it hurts. Financially. Express your disgust with your wallet.

#Hamas

We are arms dealers to terrorists.

83% of Americans disapprove of King Donold’s pardoning his Jan. 6 goon squad, and now his poll numbers are falling faster than a gold-plated toilet in a hurricane. SMITE!

Hamas has accused Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu of sabotaging the Gaza ceasefire agreement, saying the Israeli government is not engaging in negotiations for the second phase of the deal due to end on March 1 ⤵️

Neoliberal plundering increased poverty and reversed 'development' in huge areas of the global south

Don’t be distracted.

Al Jazeera has just been reporting on the release, and deportation to Egypt, of Nael Barghouti, the longest serving Palestinian prisoner who has been locked up for 45 years. However, his wife is not being allowed to leave the West Bank to join him. Cruel beyond belief.

The coup accelerates. Trump administration fires top US general and Navy chief in unprecedented purge of military leadership. A black men and a woman removed, replaced by cronies. Trump and his cronies will have their fingers on the nuclear button. What next?

Firing 7000 IRS agents will make it even easier for the rich to get away with skirting what they owe. But it's also a gift to the multi-billion dollar tax prep industry. Fewer IRS agents to help you file your taxes means more money in the pockets of companies like TurboTax.

What the fuck is going on?

Just sending a massive FUCK YOU to all the pieces of shit who scapegoat immigrants
