Jamal’s family of 13 has enough to evacuate when the border opens but are going to have to dip into it just to survive and need help

"The tariffs themselves...have served to drive oil prices lower...The government’s $37 billion budget for 2025 — with its $8 billion deficit — was benchmarked against an international oil price of $75 a barrel." this is as bad as it sounds. worse, even www.semafor.com/article/04/0...

54% total tariff on China? Jesus.

Any idea that claims that Jews can gain our liberation at the expense of Palestinians, investigate its structure. You will find structural antisemitism in it, and sometimes explicit anti-Jewish bigotry also.

Further, all nationalism is structurally antisemitic, anti-Palestinian, pro-capital. The more Zionist ur ideas are, the more you're filled with loathing for actual IRL Jews - finding us unmanly, rootless, brainy, greedy, neurotic.

Left antisemitism is real, and (contrary to what Zionists say) follows definite lines: - Soros, "Israel controls US," & "Jews run the world" theories - Defending "real" capitalism against finance capital - Conflating Jews w/ Israel - Defending killing Jewish civilians Pretty straightforward.

Radical liberalism isn't dead yet! 😂 Here's a billboard selling you on some hiring app by saying that unskilled labor is a myth:

In a move mimicking US actions, Germany is moving to deport 4 foreign residents -- one of whom is a US citizen -- on allegations of participating in pro-Palestinian protests. None of the 4 are alleged to have committed a crime www.972mag.com/germany-depo...

New Photo of the Week: The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) is organizing a one-day general strike each week until President Yoon Suk Yeol is removed from office. A far-right politician, Yoon faces impeachment for having attempted to impose martial law on South Korea. (Photo: KCTU)

SCOOP: The Trump admin appears to be going into a visa database to quietly change students' immigration status. It's coming entirely by surprise — setting students up to be detained without warning. It's Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk — on a wider scale.

The ruling-class Jews who promote Israel - they've bought into the system and the Holocaust is in the *past* for them. I fight genocide/colonialism because I'm working class, transgender. My friends are vulnerable. What capital is doing to Gazans, it could do to US. The fight is ALWAYS global.

The first medical transitions were carried out at the Institute for Sexual Science, which had links with the German Social Democracy and spread its influence and practices into Russia. Yet Dan Healey shows that there was anti-trans conversion therapy in the USSR as early as 1924.

SPENDING TOO MUCH TIME ON SELF-IMPROVEMENT IS ANTISOCIAL

Andrea Long Chu got a Pulitzer in 2023? Huh.

👀 look out - this is sure to be one of the best books of the decade! There are few people in the English-speaking world who write as well as Phil, and even fewer people with such a deep understanding of the permanent restructuring of global production.

People trying to make struggles into therapy is bullshit, yes. But we do have to face traumatic stress when we do communist work. It's in the room sabotaging us, and we'll never solve the problem by denying it.
