In 1934, Minneapolis workers shut down their city in one of the greatest general strikes in US history. As ICE terrorizes immigrant communities today, workers are carrying on this legacy by fighting back to end ICE raids and demand justice for Renee Good.
Explosions now shaking Caracas.
Trump has launched an illegal bombing campaign. Families, children, people sleeping in their homes across Caracas are under attack. Bombings confirmed in La Guaira, Fuerte Tiuna, La Carlota.
This is a war crime. Stop the bombing of Venezuela!
After a recent report by the Washington Post implicated 'Secretary of War' Pete Hegseth in ordering a double tap strike on survivors of an initial attack on a boat in the Caribbean, even Republican members of Congress are calling for an investigation. It would be an undeniable war crime according to all laws of war. Hegseth has not denied the report and posted a meme this morning celebrating the attacks.
As the U.S. government continues to bomb boats of fishermen in the Caribbean without evidence of their accusations or due process, it is also taking the floor at the U.N to lie about the U.S. blockade on Cuba.
So, let’s be clear: for more than 60 years, Cuba has been punished for choosing sovereignty and independence over living under the boot of U.S. imperialism. The U.S. is strangling the Cuban economy stealing nearly $20 million dollars a day from the Cuban economy, and its actively working to crush the will of the Cuban people by producing conditions that could be met if the U.S. would just let Cuba live.
What the U.S. has done to Cuba is not about democracy or care for the Cuban people. Take a look at what they are doing to working people in the U.S.
It is the same force of evil arrogance that carries horrible acts of violence, not only against Cuba, Venezuela, Haiti, Puerto Rico (as its colony!) and around the world, that is also carrying an overt war against working people all across this country. They are cutting access to food, healthcare, and destroying public education. They are lining up their pockets while laying off federal workers.
When we stand in solidarity with Cuba’s right to sovereignty, for the right of the Venezuelan people to defend their land and resources, we do so with the understanding that those who are dropping bombs abroad, strangling economies of other nation states, creating starvation as a weapon of war… are also dropping bombs, producing starvation and attacking our people in Chicago, New York and LA.

The Israelis are beyond mad.
They murdered 26 journalists in Yemen in a targeted attack on media offices and the world barely cared. It was one of the deadliest attacks on journalists in history.
After bombing Qatar with zero repercussions, they have threatened to make the entire world a battlefield, US war on terror-style.
No one even notices the ongoing slaughterhouse in Gaza anymore. Genocide is background noise as it expands to the West Bank.
Where does it end? Who will stop this insatiable monster?
Last week, I was expelled from @Columbia for protesting the U.S.-backed genocide in Gaza. As president of @SW_Columbia , Columbia’s student workers union, I was also fired from my job. The Trump administration is pushing their narrative. Here’s the real story. 🧵
Over 50K Cubans are protesting in Guantanamo against Trump & Rubio’s brutal policies—tightening the U.S. blockade, cutting remittances & reinstating Cuba on the State Sponsors of Terrorism List. They're also protesting the unjust detention of migrants in illegal U.S. naval base.
Today marks 3 years since the start of the war in Ukraine.
The corporate media says Putin wants to take over the world, and Trump says Zelenskyy somehow managed to trick the US into supporting him — but the reality is that NATO’s long-term strategy of expansion towards Russia’s borders made war inevitable.
The only REAL path towards peace is the abolition of NATO!
Today's meeting between Biden & Venezuela's defeated far-right leader, Edmundo Gonzalez, was a sad spectacle of political losers propping each other up. All empty talk! Wether Washington likes it or not, Nicolas Maduro will be inaugurated as President in Caracas on January 10th
This Friday hundreds of thousands of Cubans attended a huge demonstration in front of the USA Embassy in Havana in support of the Cuban Revolution and demanding the end of the US sanctions and the exclusion of Cuba from the SSOT list. President Miguel Díaz-Canel led the crowd together with Cuban leader Raúl Castro. See by yourself 👇👇
Don’t be fooled: the “rebels” in Syria who the media is cheering on as freedom fighters are literally the al-Qaeda franchise in Syria. Their agenda is to massacre religious minorities, eliminate all rights for women, and abandon the Palestinian cause.
Undoubtedly backed by US and Israeli intelligence, and Turkish-funded groups, they timed their attack to coincide with the ceasefire in Lebanon and the Israeli bombing of Syrian border crossings. Their victory would be a victory for US empire.
Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel led thousands in Havana demonstrating in solidarity with Palestine. The protesters, including 250 Palestinian medical students, gathered in front of the US Embassy to condemn Israel’s US-backed genocide in Gaza.
