Green Party of Canada leader @ElizabethMay has joined with the pro-genocide German Greens in calling for Jill Stein to drop out of the US Presidential race.

Evidently, May believes that a candidate who has helped to perpetrate a genocide, Kamala Harris, is the 'lesser of two evils'.

But what is more evil than genocide?

Even worse, Elizabeth May is contradicting her own position on strategic voting. In Canada's 2015 election, May complained bitterly about Canadians who voted for the Liberals in order to defeat Stephen Harper.

Now, she's urging Jill Stein to deprive US voters of the possibility of voting for the US Green Party candidate so that progressive voters transfer their votes to Killer Kamala.

This is even worse than strategic voting, because by dropping out, Jill Stein would be *forcing* voters to choose between two appallingly bad candidates.

This sorry episode simply affirms how morally bankrupt the Green Party leadership has become. As @AlexTyrrellPVQ argues, the person who should withdraw from politics is Elizabeth May herself.

Under May's interminable 'leadership', the Green Party of Canada is going nowhere. May is simply sucking up progressive votes that should go to a truly transformational, courageous and principled candidate.

And suddenly my phone , our security system , my kids tablets are time bombs that detonate at the whims of one country . You win Israel . Not a single politician or late night show talks about this ? None of that worth the news ? Nothing “funny” can come out of it ? The whole country is truly a hostage. The whole world is.

Thank you @rogerwaters & for everyone’s support for my mother’s arrest, interrogation, injuries and theft of her property by 16 balaclava-clad thugs

[Clare Daly @ClareDalyIRL]

I'd like to thank everyone who voted for me and all of the people I've had the privilege of working with over my time as an MEP, in Ireland, across Europe, and beyond.

I have been honoured to have been able to use this platform as a powerful voice for peace, antimilitarism and neutrality.

This result is not a rejection of those ideas.

It is testament to the success and reach of the work we've done that the establishment came out in such force to harm my chances of reelection.

Electoral politics is always only a platform to organise from. That organisation is going on in communities, workplaces and universities all over Europe.

We continue the fight.

Israeli units dressing up as civilian refugees during their deadly attack on the Nuseirat refugee camp is known as perfidy and is a fundamental breach of the law of war and thus a war crime within the jurisdiction of the ICC.

[Mick Wallace @wallacemick]

What Clare Daly achieved as an MEP in the last 5 years is unprecedented and no one can take that away from her - Her fearlessness in speaking the Truth without fear or favour was a serious problem for the Establishment, be they from the Right or the so called Left...

BREAKING: Canada's brutal national police are again arresting Indigenous peoples trying to protect their own lands - this time the Pacheedaht nation in British Columbia. Brave reporting by Brandi Morin.

The RCMP has to be the most anti-Indigenous police force in the world.⤵️

Banning one social media app while leaving all the others alone is like removing one land mine in a field of land mines and thinking you fixed the problem.

This is a big deal! Bernie Sanders says we can't keep giving unconditional funding to Israel's racist, anti-Palestinian government, & adds that he's considering legislation to that effect. Anyone who claims to be a progressive or cares about human rights must support this effort!
