Brazil: Flávio Bolsonaro asked President Lula in their first runoff debate why 73% of prisoners voted for him.
Lula replied that he wants “100% to vote, even your father,” referring to jailed former President Jair Bolsonaro.
“Let me die,” American photojournalist Heidi Levine repeats to journalists Jasper Nathaniel as they try to outrun masked Israeli settlers who attacked her on Friday while she covered the olive harvest in the West Bank village of Abu Falah, near Ramallah.
Around 80 settlers attacked Palestinian olive harvesters in the village, AP reported. The Palestinian Red Crescent said it treated six people injured in two attacks in Abu Falah.
Levine, a freelancer for the Washington Post, told the Committee to Protect Journalists that the settlers knocked her down and kicked her for at least 10 minutes, even after she identified herself as an American journalist. They stole her camera, phone and bag. She was eventually taken to a hospital in Ramallah.
"The IDF provided cover, with tear gas and machine guns, while the settlers beat" Levine "nearly to death," Nathaniel wrote, adding that soldiers then shot a Palestinian bystander and aimed their guns at and shoved paramedics trying to treat him. AP photos and circulating videos show Israeli soldiers standing over a wounded Palestinian man after they shot him.
Andrey X, an activist also at the scene, said a Palestinian man "saved our lives from the settler-terrorists who attacked the olive harvesters and journalists” armed only with a slingshot.
Frente al cerco energético del gobierno de EEUU, que pretende castigar a todo el pueblo de Cuba, nuestro Partido y Gobierno responden con más soberanía y medidas para aliviar el impacto de esa política estadounidense en la población cubana.
Se han instalados 1.418 MW en 144 parques fotovoltaicos; se genera con fuentes renovables de energía el 21,4% de la generación del país; hay 44 solineras y 64 estaciones de carga para servicio a la población.
El 100% de los policlínicos, hogares de ancianos, hogares maternos y funerarias cuentan con capacidades montadas de energía renovable.
#CubaNoEsUnaAmenaza El Bloqueo Sí.
Ese frenético despliegue sobre líderes y funcionarios internacionales, visible en estos días, es la mejor evidencia de lo solos y aislados que están ante el mundo en su política contra #Cuba, de la falta de un respaldo auténtico y de cómo la razón está de nuestra parte.

La crueldad del castigo colectivo que EE. UU. aplica al pueblo de #Cuba es tan injustificable que, a las puertas de una nueva votación en la ONU sobre la resolución contra el #bloqueo, presiona desesperadamente a naciones soberanas para que respalden su actuación genocida.

More evidence that the police do not work for politicians or take orders from them. The police work for the capitalist ruling class. That is why socialism cannot be achieved through elections — elections don’t change who is in power.
Part of the reason some in the left want Mayor Mamdani to fire NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch is her family's ties to the NYPD's partnership with Israeli police.
After 9/11, the NYPD began stationing intelligence officers in cities abroad so it could get “terrorism” information directly instead of relying on federal agencies.
One of those posts, in place since 2007, is in Israel. Since 2012, the officer there, Detective Charlie Benaim, a former IDF officer, has worked out of the Israel National Police's Sharon District headquarters in Kfar Saba, north of Tel Aviv.
Mamdani has not ordered the NYPD to cut ties with Israeli police, City & State reported in August. The program is partly funded by the NYC Police Foundation, a private charity backed by wealthy donors. Tisch's uncle Andrew Tisch chairs its board, and her cousin Alexander Tisch is a trustee.
Tisch family members also donate to the foundation, according to the research and journalism outlet The Polis Project, though the amounts are not public.

🚨🇨🇺 BREAKING — Cuba:
Díaz-Canel denounces 6 Decades of U.S. illegal peacetime blockade and sanctions.
“Under these circumstances, which directly affect agricultural production, food processing, refrigeration, transportation, distribution and logistics, Cuba has chosen to act, treating each challenge as an opportunity to accelerate structural transformations that strengthen our resilience.”
Yielding to U.S. pressure undermines national sovereignty and independent decision-making. Every vote at the @UN affects Cubans enduring collective punishment under the U.S. blockade.
Their suffering must never become political currency in U.S. elections.
#CubaNoEsUnaAmenza
The US Secretary of State is nervous and anxious in the face of a new defeat at the United Nations. He is putting pressure on and blackmailing Heads of State and Government from several countries so that they change their vote against the blockade at the UN General Assembly.
Through his repeated lies and new actions he attempts to silence the act of collective punishment against the Cuban people and turn the rest of the international community into an accomplice of this barbaric act.
#CubaIsNotAThreat The Blockade Is.
Mamdani says he won't fire Tisch because of "her record in uprooting" corruption.
But she used her role as commissioner under Adams to facilitate a deal with the Feds that deepened NYPD-ICE cooperation in direct violation of sanctuary city laws.

⭕️ Mayor Zohran Mamdani: “Jessica Tisch is the police commissioner. I have no plans to change that. The reason that I made the decision… was because of her record of uprooting corruption from the upper echelons of the NYPD while lowering crime across our city. And over the last 10 months that we've worked together, we have delivered the lowest recorded number of murders in our city's history, the lowest recorded number of shootings as well as shooting victims.”
An Israeli real estate ad on Facebook is promoting "Anglo communities" in Ofarim, an illegal settlement built on stolen Palestinian land of Aboud town and al-Lubban al-Gharbi village west of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.
The ad aims to attract English-speaking settlers to double the population of the illegal settlement, which drains water and resources from nearby Palestinian villages and towns.
All three Palestinian-led grassroots organizations in NYC, Within Our Lifetime, Pal-Awda, and the Palestinian Youth Movement, have endorsed the protests against Mamdani, stood behind the student protesters, and uplifted the demands of the broader movement. The Palestinian grassroots movement in NYC has made its position clear.
I’m a journalist from Gaza. I covered the genocide for almost two years.
I support the protesters who protested Mamdani and called him a traitor.
1- Mamdani has appointed Phylisa Wisdom, the Zionist leader of a liberal Jewish community group to lead his Office to Combat Antisemitism.
2- He went to stand in a vigil to mourn Israelis as the genocide drags on.
3- He passed a motion to combat “antisemitism” funneling millions of dollars to pro-Israel groups.
4- He can’t stop excoriating the Gaza armed resistance and blaming the victims and no one is asking him to support them but just to dodge such pernicious questions.
5- He allows Israeli soldiers to run amok in NY after they go to Gaza and commit war crimes.
6- He had no issues with the police protecting the Israeli delegate and indicted war criminals.
7- He didn’t do anything about the Palestinian land auctions run by Jewish groups in the US.
And much more to say as he only shows us performative signs of solidarity. It’s Palestine which won him the elections. And he has practically not fulfilled any of his promises.
If this is not complicity, I don’t know what to call it. But yes, Palestinians should shut up as the genocide continues unabated because the liberals are irritated.
If you genuinely care about Palestinians, listen to them. Mamdani is responsible and needs to be pressed more and more. He is betraying his voters and the cause that won him the elections.
We call on the mayor to:
1. Shut down all illegal sales of stolen Palestinian land in New York City
2. Use every means available to him to prevent military cargo shipments to Israel from JFK airport
3. Dismantle NYPD's Strategic Response Group and fire Jessica Tisch
