This is Nas. They are a born-and-raised South Bronx resident. And they are one of nearly 42 million Americans whose SNAP benefits ran dry today.

Democrats and Republicans point fingers, but the bottom line is our so-called representatives like Ritchie Torres have failed to fight for our access to food.

We need a system where nutritious food is a guaranteed right for all.

[The People's Forum @PeoplesForumNYC]

Today, we received a letter from Congressman Jason Smith and the House Committee on Ways and Means targeting our organization for our work against genocide, defending immigrants, promoting international solidarity, and making political education accessible to tens of thousands of young organizers. This is a desperate attempt to silence our work and crush dissent. We will not be intimidated. This is not just an attack on The People’s Forum, but an assault on the fundamental rights of all people of conscience in the United States: the right to organize, the right to free speech, and the right to protest against injustice.

Defend Free Speech: TPF under attack

Senator Chuck Grassley, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, has made false allegations against The People’s Forum and others. Grassley has called on Trump’s Justice Department to “assess whether The People’s Forum and Code Pink are obligated to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), due to the group’s reported Chinese Communist Party ties.”

This is one more effort to abuse government authority to threaten, punish, and suppress based on viewpoint - to target those who express constitutionally-protected views with which the administration and its far-right allies disagree. The allegations of Chinese government funding are not only false but part of a dangerous escalation to crush dissent, target activists, and silence peace and anti-war movements. 

This latest attack on The People’s Forum, based on unfounded claims, is part of a broader assault by the Trump administration on democratic rights, which includes the arrest of students protesting the Gaza genocide, the revocation of over a thousand student visas, and intimidation of universities. This campaign also targets immigrant families, public sector workers, and media outlets that criticize the administration, all to undermine essential political rights.

The Trump administration and its far-right allies are engaging in a demonization campaign against civil society, designed to caricature and present a false and discredited image of their opponents. The fact that a number of Democratic Party politicians and ‘mainstream’ corporate-owned media outlets have either capitulated to Trump or echoed the Trump talking points has only emboldened right-wing extremist forces who seek to impose a dictatorial hold over American society. 

The People’s Forum will persist in opposing the U.S.-supported genocide in Gaza and promoting peace and understanding with China. We will continue our educational work to reveal the truths of U.S. history, including the impacts of slavery, indigenous genocide, and colonialism.

Like past generations, we will mobilize and resist attempts to roll back hard-won democratic rights. Together, we can win!

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. 🧵

Multiple wildfires are ripping through Los Angeles, fueled by extremely strong winds and drought conditions in Southern California.

LA firefighters are overwhelmed: while LAFD got a $17.6M budget cut, LAPD’s budget jumped by $138M.

South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol was forced to rescind his declaration of martial law, in which he vowed to "crush" the country's main opposition party that he accused of sympathizing with North Korea and of “anti-state” activities. Mass protests are expected calling for the President's resignation.

Over the course of the last year, this campaign has waged a historic socialist challenge to the two-party system. We’ve traveled the country, hearing from working people about how capitalism makes their lives unlivable, and talking about the socialist solutions to these crises.

Thanks to the grassroots efforts of thousands of volunteers, we have overcome undemocratic ballot access laws and spread our message far and wide. But the fight is just beginning. The struggle to end the dictatorship of the billionaire class does not stop after Election Day, no matter who is in the White House.

After Israel bombed the Iranian Embassy in Damascus, Iran has responded to this act of war. This should not be used as a pretext for further escalation by Israel or Biden.

The US-Israeli genocide in Gaza must come to an end — only this can remove the threat of a regional war!

📣 Our emergency campaign — Let Cuba Live: Bread for Our Neighbors is actively raising money to fund the shipment of 800 tons of wheat flour to Cuba as legal humanitarian aid, so that millions of people have bread for a month.

➡️ Can you join with thousands of others to make a donation, as you would for your neighbor next door? Your generosity will make a huge impact. A $100 donation buys enough wheat flour to produce 70,000 bread rolls.

🇨🇺 The Cuban people have taught us true generosity—to not simply give what is left over, but to give everything possible for the benefit of all people. When Hurricane Katrina hit the United States, Cuba was immediately ready to provide all the support it could for the people most affected. Around the world, Cuba, who has been in a precarious stranglehold by the United States for over 60 years, never holds back from providing the most generous of support to those in need.

❗️NOW IS THE TIME FOR US TO SUPPORT THE CUBAN PEOPLE! Our neighbors in Cuba are being starved by the United States government and are experiencing a food shortage crisis due to the brutal blockade.
