I do believe that there is no other single organization in the world which has supported the state of Israel more, financially and morally, than the AFL-CIO and its affiliates.

The general strike in Bolivia is growing. Unions in the two most economically important regions (Santa Cruz and Potosí) are now joining the strategy of building barricades to block highways. They hadn't joined until now.

They're the two largest exporters (mining & agroindustry)

New: The NYPD is on track to spend nearly $1B on police overtime this fiscal year — a clear sign the department has made little headway on Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s goal of driving down the entrenched form of spending. https://t.co/7HWREhwcHs

Day 3 of Bolivia's general strike demanding the resignation of neoliberal President Rodrigo Paz.

All major highways blocked by protesters. An indigenous long march is heading to the capital, as it passes through each town and village more people join.

So an austerity budget.

A year later, my cousin still never got his passport returned. He had no luck when he tried later to obtain a new one. Trans people are being locked in a nation calling them terrorists. This situation is not getting coverage and is absolutely terrifying in its implications.

An ex-NOPD detective who investigated child abuse cases — before pleading guilty to child molestation himself — was recently asked under oath about some teens’ unsolved killings.

He invoked his 5th amendment rights against self-incrimination 700+ times.

Mayor Mamdani says there was "no prior coordination or planning between the NYPD & ICE" b4 Wycoff Hospital protest.

"NYPD officers were not dispatched to the hospital to participate or facilitate... Our NYPD will not participate in civil immigrant immigration enforcement."

Jessica Winter has been raising her children to detest A.I. Then her daughter’s public middle school began receiving Google Chromebooks, which came pre-installed with an all-ages version of Gemini, a suite of A.I. tools. “When my daughter, who is in sixth grade, begins writing an essay, she gets a prompt: ‘Help me write,’ ” Winter writes. “If she is starting work on a slide-show presentation, the prompt is ‘Help me visualize.’ She shoos away these interruptions, but they persist: ‘Help me edit.’ ‘Beautify this slide.’ ”

Proponents of generative A.I. in elementary and middle schools argue that such early exposure will foster digital-media literacy, and prepare them for a future in which most professions are steeped in A.I. But the technology also poses significant cognitive and social-emotional risks to young people. Read Winter’s report about A.I.’s infiltration into schools—and what it could mean for young minds: https://t.co/xaIqbeGRnl

Thousands of Cubans marched across Havana and nationwide this Friday to mark May Day, amid an economic crisis and shortages worsened by U.S. economic warfare. “Cuba defends itself” was the slogan of the marches, which expressed rejected U.S. aggression.
