I will soon be leaving the bridge. I want to give heartfelt thanks for all the outpouring of support. My purpose here has been to fulfill my duty to the truth- to call on the people of this country to recognize and exercise the revolutionary power within us- the power of collective nonviolent action and non-cooperation with evil- by which we can bring an end to these hateful wars and the murders committed in our names. It is only with the passive compliance of millions- our obedience- our willingness to continue to do what's expected of us: to go to work, to school, to pay our rents, our mortgages and our taxes, that the Trump regime can remain in power and these wars continue.

One man on a bridge is relatively powerless, but the collective withdrawal of our obedience and support is capable of bringing a swift end to the regime and its wars. This nonviolent collective action is our greatest power and it is the exercise of this power that those who rule fear more than any weapon. For the sake of the world, its children, and our future let us build this power with each other, together.

Attention American service members:

🚨TAKE ACTION NOW:🚨

Christian Smalls (US) and Hatem Aouini (Tunisia) remain imprisoned in Givon Prison, now on day five of a hunger strike in protest of their violent, degrading detention for attempting the break Israel’s illegal siege on Gaza and stand against the genocide against the Palestinian people.

Five other #Handala volunteers — Braedon Peluso, Frank Romano, Santiago González Vallejo, Sergio Toribio Sanchez, and Vigdis Bjorvand — were transferred to the airport this morning and are expected to be deported today.

Despite international outrage, Israel continues to criminalize solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.

I bought drumsticks for my young daughter from @NestleCare yesterday. When she tasted it last night it was clearly bad - something wrong with it. Now she has a sick stomach. No surprise but #Nestlé clearly doesn't "care" as I called and was redirected to a dead end each time.

Nobody owns my vote. They have to earn it.

I voted for Claudia de la Cruz and Karina Garcia because of their strong, clear platform and values. #VoteSocialist2024 #AntiImperialism #AntiRacism #ProLGBTQrights #NoGenocide

I write in @truthout about the health provisions in the American Rescue Plan and how they move us away from national improved #MedicareForAll.

Once again the medical industrial complex is getting exactly what it asked for.

Thank you @RepDonaldPayne for aspiring for a modern rail infrastructure. Decreasing the carbon footprint, health harms, and impacts of long haul (>500 miles) truck freight requires a massive mode shift to rail that serves the public good, not just Wall St. https://t.co/ownroN5CoN

@AlexZedKawa @_GreatUnwashed @RepJahanaHayes FYI: States can't create single payer systems.

The #COVID19 pandemic is surging and one-third of the US population is either uninsured or underinsured. Nearly half the population is living in poverty.

We need #MedicareForAll NOW. #ForceTheVoteM4A

Say her name! Dr. Susan Moore! Yet ANOTHER loss of Black genius and vibrant humanity due to racism.

As four Black women physicians, @DrAlethaMaybank, @uche_blackstock, @doccrearperry and I know that it could have just as easily been us. We might be next. Anti-racism is the cure.

Vzla has done remarkably well on the Covid-19 front compared to other countries in the region, and that taking into account how sanctions have hurt the healthcare system. What's the secret? This interview with frontline healthcare workers shed some light https://t.co/qzWBXVyOnD

[Dr. Margaret Flowers @DrMFlowers]

Millions of people didn't listen to the CDC warning NOT to travel on #Christmas

I compare #Venezuela'sempowering way to stop the spread of infection that is working to keep #COVID19 cases and deaths low to the absence of a plan in the #UnitedStates.

I welcome @JimmyDore to the club of people who do all they can to advocate for National Improved #MedicareForAll and get marginalized by actually expecting the #Democrats to do something. It's a club full of good people and we will win. Hang in there. https://t.co/1R6XZlvUre
