The Bay Area needs to support these striking ILWU workers.
Arrests, injuries reported at C&H Sugar refinery strike line in Crockett https://t.co/Adfd44CsJt
Horrific, this cop executed an unarmed man, despite having the backup of three officers, with two more arriving as he did it. US police have gone bonkers, juiced by the out of control crime narratives their own unions are planting in media to get them raises.
📣"Let her speak!"
Last night, another packed Grayslake board meeting had residents and allies from across Lake County demanding action be taken to stop the T5 hyperscale data center.
The village board limited comments and had police escort away commenters who went over the two minute limit. After Mayor Elizabeth Davies ended the meeting before all Grayslake residents present could speak, one resident took to the microphone to give her comments anyway. Community members formed a wall around her so she could give it without interruption by police.
Big tech and the billionaires pushing data centers into our communities may have the money, but our communities have the people power. We can organize together to win a society for the workers, not the billionaires.
The cops yell taser, taser, taser then shot him with a gun? 🤔🤨 BTW, it was a black man they shot.

INTERVIEW: We're entering the most dangerous part of the war
There's been a coup and I've taken over George's show, jokes Prof Seyed Marandi. Before laying out how, if the US tries to destroy Iran's infrastructure as Trump has promised, Iran will level that of the neighbouring quisling states supporting the illegal war and housing US bases

KILLER WHALES IN MONTEREY BAY
A whale watching captain from Sanctuary Cruises in Monterey Bay witnessed a pod of killer whales leaping into the air 10 to 15 times while hunting dolphins 🐬 on Sunday.
The dramatic encounter is part of the orcas’ natural hunting behavior, and the same activity was spotted again Monday. @KTVU

🇾🇪🚢🇸🇦After Yemen announced a maritime blockade, online trackers have gradually begun to record a mass turnaround of the Saudi oil fleet approaching the Bab-el-Mandeb Strait
At least five tankers carrying around 3.84 million barrels of crude oil, gasoil, and naphtha from key Saudi terminals Yanbu and Jizan were forced to urgently change their routes: four of them turned around within the Red Sea waters, while one did so outside, in the Gulf of Aden. The fact that a vessel, which was in ballast on a route from China to Canada, turned around in the Gulf of Aden clearly demonstrates that shipowners and insurers consider the entire approach to Bab-el-Mandeb, rather than just the Red Sea itself, as a deadly risk zone.
❗️The variety of cargoes and destinations underscores the systemic nature of risk avoidance, ultimately undermining Riyadh's plan to use the East-West pipeline and Red Sea ports as a safe bypass for the vulnerable Strait of Hormuz. The actions of the Houthis have effectively turned the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea into a zone of complete access denial (A2/AD) for Saudi exports, which inevitably leads to the redirection of raw material flows around Africa via the Cape of Good Hope, an explosive increase in insurance rates, and another round of rising costs in global energy logistics.

On Wednesday afternoon, Madison Police surrounded a Black man while he was on the ground, shooting him three times in the head at point blank range.
The Madison community has mobilized to the site of the killing, demanding justice.
I’m on Willy St in Madison where earlier today police shot and killed a man after receiving a call of someone checking cars in the area. The crowd is chanting, and tempers are running high
🚨BREAKING: Madison, Wisconsin Police Department has murdered a man, shooting him 3 times in the head at point blank range.
A crowd has formed in outrage at the scene, near the location where MPD also murdered unarmed teenager Tony Robinson 11 years ago.
"Your authority doesn't give you the right to murder!"

‼️ Within a few days in early March, Iran eviscerated US air defenses in the Persian Gulf region.
The US reconstituted those air defenses during the ceasefire, and now, within just a few days in July, Iran has again methodically destroyed them.
The world watches in wonder.
Oil prices rapidly heading back to $100 per barrel again as gas is already above $4, due entirely to the ongoing Trump/Netanyahu war with Iran, which he Trump already declared over and victorious a dozen times in the last 4 months.
All this as *even MAGA* is turning against it:
