There is no way to interpret this event other than blatant regime change for stronger access to Venezuela's natural wealth. This is the start of a mass plunder of Latin America

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

Remember that the US *does not care* about the people of Venezuela. It is not about "narcotrafficking", or "democracy", or whatever propaganda they have going. It is *explicitly* about US control over oil, capital accumulation, and geopolitical power.

A process of renewed colonialism will happen in Gaza, and Russia and China's refusal to veto this transitional authority resolution will hurt Gaza further. The UN has cracked open the egg of Gaza to suck the yolk from the land.

So happy to see my essay "Ode to Old Cutler Rd." get published today in the inagural issue of Heatwave Visions journal! It's been so exciting to stretch my creative muscles with this piece!

"The narrative that China poses some kind of military threat to the US is wildly overblown.

In fact, the opposite is true. The US has hundreds of military bases and facilities around the world. A significant number of them are stationed near China – in Japan and South Korea. By contrast, China has only one foreign military base, and zero military bases near US borders.

Furthermore, China has not fired a single bullet in international warfare in over 40 years, while during this time the US has invaded, bombed or carried out regime-change operations in over a dozen Global South countries.

If there is any state that poses a known threat to world peace and security, it is the US.

The real reason for Western warmongering is because China is achieving sovereign development and this is undermining the imperial arrangement on which Western capital accumulation depends."

#WolffBites: How sad, ironic that we celebrate US war of independence from colonial Britain in the shadow of Trump seeking to colonize Panama, Greenland, and Canada. How far have we fallen?

One day I'll write about how much Model UN meant to me, but I'm happy to say that my team made #3 in my last year as a part of it! Paws Up FIU MUN!!!

@JeanetteNunezFL invited public radical Cornel West to FIU but fails to bring any light to the fact that she is an arm of the machinery used to censor the academic studies he's helped propel

[Jason Salguero @byjasonsalg]

I never thought I would hear the words "American Empire" said next to Jeanette Nunez but Cornel West wants to surprise me

It's days like these where you're reminded of the lack of shade at so many bus stops in Miami

Of course Palantir is behind the police state crackdown.

Big Tech supplies the tools, the state targets dissent.

This isn’t public safety—it’s algorithmic authoritarianism in real time. #FightOligarchy

From Black Skin, White Masks: Fanon writing on the shared struggle between Jewish people (and obviously we can extend this shared struggle to other racialized bodies)

Our struggles are intertwined.

Just spent an entire day visiting different art institutions in Miami, and all I can say after that is ENGAGE WITH YOUR COMMUNITY ITS GOOD FOR YOU AND THE WORLD

Funnily enough this kid was also a Model UN delegate, but that is realms away from any of the experience you would need in this position

At 22, Thomas Fugate III is going places fast in the Trump administration.⁠

Fugate, who graduated from UTSA in 2024, had no previous experience combating terrorism.⁠ Now he's leading the counter-terrorism office in the Department of Homeland Security. https://t.co/2eAqtmNgIS

I would argue there is genuine healing to be had via walking - pedestrianism is a reclamation of enclosed upon urban space
