Netanyahu and his sidekick Trump are clearly contemplating another murderous assault on Iran, with help from Arab despots in the Persian Gulf. The sudden flood of fake news across Western media and social media about young women being executed in Iran makes that clear.

Fergie Chambers has been unjustly imprisoned for over three months for the sole "crime" of supporting victims of the Zionist genocide in Gaza and defending independent news outlets. This is a clear fascist and imperialist attack meant to enable ongoing genocide while silencing true, free, and independent journalism. Free Fergie!

@lubrio Me parece admirable lo que estáis soportando los venezolanos que aguantáis en Venezuela de parte de gente “revolucionaria” incapaz de dar la batalla en su propio país. Ya está, ya lo he dicho.

Carlos García, Venezuelan right-wing politician, was deported by ICE after 8 months in prison, arriving in Venezuela on Sept 30. García was Mérida's mayor from 2013 to 2017 and escaped Venezuelan justice in 2017 after aiding a violent coup attempt against the Maduro gov't.🧵

Caracas (https://t.co/UpbdJMGRgb)—Bolivia’s Prosecutor’s Office condemned the “kidnapping” of Attorney General Roger Mariaca and Santa Cruz departmental prosecutor Alberto Zeballos following their arrest at Viru Viru International Airport on Wednesday night, September 30. The operation came as prosecutors investigated Fernando Cerimedo, the far-right Argentinian political operative and former adviser to Bolivian President Rodrigo Paz.

Officials from the Prosecutor’s Office condemned violations of institutional independence and human rights. Police subsequently intervened in prosecution offices in several cities and searched Mariaca’s residence in Santa Cruz. Beller’s lawyer, Jerjes Justiniano, said the arrests were carried out without a judicial order.

On Thursday, Government Minister Marco Antonio Oviedo presented the operation as a fight against “narcoterrorism,” alleging that Mariaca headed a criminal protection network. Mariaca has rejected allegations that he facilitated drug trafficking.

The arrests followed Washington’s September 28 announcement of visa restrictions against Bolivian officials, including both prosecutors. Mariaca repudiated the US accusations and defended the independence of Bolivia’s Prosecutor’s Office, insisting that the Cerimedo investigation would continue despite pressure.

Luis Montaño and Mabel Andrade were announced as interim replacements for Mariaca and Zeballos, respectively. However, Oviedo subsequently refused to accept Montaño’s appointment, saying the legislature must choose the new attorney general.

An investigation reaching into the presidential circle

Cerimedo was arrested in August after his former partner, lawyer Nadia Beller, survived a shooting in Santa Cruz. She accuses him of organizing the assassination attempt to silence her over alleged corruption involving figures close to the government.…

Many Chavistas are indignant about Delcy’s meeting with Trump, especially following his disgusting UNGA speech. However, for context, far-right Venezuelan gusanos are crying all over because they wanted María Corina to be there instead. The fist of Delcy Rodríguez in this photo says a lot though!

🚨HORRIBLE: A child walks alone through the rubble, carrying his schoolbag as Israeli tank fire and aircraft strike nearby in Gaza.

He crosses hundreds of meters of destroyed homes, exposed to the immediate danger of being killed, just to reach his classroom.

This is a child’s reality in Gaza‼️

AFRO-HONDURAN GARIFUNA COMMUNITIES UNDER ATTACK

As U.S. imperialism wreaks havoc everywhere, the African diaspora in Honduras is no exception. Backed by the United States and publicly endorsed by Donald Trump, Honduras' right-wing president, Nasry Asfura, is selling off his country to foreign investors, largely at the expense of the Garifuna community and other Indigenous populations.

The Garifuna are no strangers to struggle. As captive Africans brought to the Caribbean island of Saint Vincent, they managed to escape the system of chattel slavery and form maroon communities throughout the Atlantic coast of Central America. Their struggle has been a long intergenerational one, consistently made worse by U.S. imperialism.

They faced severe repression under U.S. installed former president Juan Orlando Hernández, who came to power in 2014 and opened up the country to U.S. and Canadian business interests. Now a convicted drug trafficker, Donald Trump has granted him an official pardon. Under his leadership, the Garifuna people suffered from arbitrary arrests, pervasive detention, kidnapping, and violence. Now, U.S. backed leadership of Nasry Asfura, their struggle continues.

Another protest coming up tomorrow. The Popular Anti-Imperialist Front is calling for a mobilization in La Hoyada, central Caracas, to reject "neocolonization." Given the latest announcements, this is very timely. Stay tuned for more
