Demonstrations erupted in cities across the US on Tuesday demanding justice for Lorenzo Salgado Araujo and Joan Sebastian Guerrero, both shot and killed by ICE agents carrying out traffic stops this week.

More actions are planned for the coming days, as protesters across the country demand an immediate end to Trump’s anti-immigrant terror against working communities.

Jesús Manuel Arenas-Silva, a 45-year-old Venezuelan man, died Monday morning in Georgia while being transferred from the Irwin county detention center to the Folkston ICE processing center. He was found "unresponsive" on a transfer bus and pronounced dead at a local hospital.

ICE arrested Arenas-Silva last Thursday, and according to a press release issued by Georgia immigrant rights groups, only allowed him to take one medication with him. When he called his sister while in detention, he relayed to her that agents did not give him the medication.

“He went without medication during his detention until he tragically died in ICE custody on Monday,” according to a press release.

Arenas-Silva becomes the fourth person to die in an ICE-related incident this week and the 22nd to die in ICE custody this year.

Interesting to reflect on as we engage in another round of conversations about whether progressives should support Hakeem Jefferies as speaker.

This diarrhea parasite reminds me of how Biden/Harris could've reinstated the health regulations that Trump 1.0 killed, but chose to EXPAND his cuts to food testing and let a dairy lobbyist run the USDA instead.

Poisoning us to increase corporate profits is a bipartisan issue.

“Collaborating with ICE is collaborating with Jim Crow and white supremacy.”

Actor and Houston native Kendrick Sampson blasted city councilmembers at Tuesday night’s meeting, the first since ICE killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, the 52-year-old father killed at a traffic stop while driving to work on the morning of July 7.

Sampson asked the council point-blank: “Why aren't you protecting us? Where do you draw the line?”

Over 100 residents signed up to speak at the meeting, demanding an independent investigation into the shooting and accountability for Araujo’s death.

On Tuesday, Cuba's National Electric Power System collapsed for the fifth time this year – and the third time in less than 10 days – plunging it into a nationwide blackout. Ten million residents were left without electricity.

Washington tightened its economic blockade on Cuba in January, targeting oil supplies to the island, which has made blackouts longer and more frequent.

What Ro Khanna knows, but cannot say:

Palestinians have a right - in international law - to armed resistance against Isra*li occupation.

Palestinians have a moral RESPONSIBILITY to resist their occupation- period.

Democrats are imperialists. And yes, that includes DSA.

Marco Rubio has vowed to dismantle the ICC, announcing Monday that international law hamstrings US foreign policy and poses an “intolerable threat to our sovereignty.”

BJG defending Palestinians’ right to armed resistance on Rising on Oct. 17, 2023 (months before a pro-Israel mob drove her off the show).

For all the petty online feuds and left-wing drama, people forget she was making this case when no one else regularly on TV was. Deep respect

For over six weeks massive protests have filled the streets in Albania against a luxury coastal development project led by US President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and his wife Ivanka.

The so-called Flamingo Revolution started as an environmental movement to protect wetland breeding grounds but has since evolved into a full-blown national uprising demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Edi Rama.

Dajana, an activist in Tirana, explains explain how the fight over the Albania's Vjosa-Narta coastline and Sazan Island has become a national reckoning over corruption and sovereignty.

I’m sorry this is beyond disingenuous. You’re not for nonviolence! You’ve repeatedly say you support Israel’s right to “go after Hamas” with bombs and F35s. This is not a principled stance against violence as such, it’s a selective and self serving stance against some violence.

Marco Rubio just declared war on the ICC.

According to human rights lawyer @CraigMokhiber, the push to dismantle "the entire post-WWII system of international law" is all about one thing:

"protecting Netanyahu."

Hakeem Jeffries will become speaker and then the excuse will be “don’t run against the first black speaker of the house.” He’ll be untouchable. If you try to Force A Vote against him as speaker you’ll be shamed and removed. This was the year to get him out!

These arguments often include the claim that "other marginalized groups" have it better than Jews. I wonder which group he'd voluntarily swap socioeconomic positions with.

Scahill isn't Grim but it is also telling that nobody from DropSite ever did/does this kind of questioning of Platner, or AOC. When you have different standards of journalism in interviews based on who your subject you make it clear that you're just in the tank for some people.

"We're being hunted like dogs."

Houston community members confronted City Council on Tuesday to demand they take action to stop ICE operations in their city.

This follows the killing of Lorenzo Salgado Araujo at the hands of ICE last week.
