[🔻 @atlajala]

ice killed at least 32 ppl last yr & at least 2 in just the 1st week of this one. distinction between "legal observer" & "illegal immigrant" has always been utterly meaningless. this is a fascist execution squad. the law will not protect you, move beyond it & against it.

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

The NYT should probably disclose that this oped writer is funded by Chevron, ExxonMobil, ConocoPhillips, and BP America as they are all major donors to the Atlantic Council. To say nothing of their other major donors: the pentagon, Raytheon, Lockheed Martin etc.

[Boots Riley @BootsRiley]

Mainstream media logic:

Advocating for sanctions against Israel is so dangerous to Israel- as it would cause its economic collapse, that it gets people fired or blacklisted.

BUT ALSO

"Sanctions against Venezuela have little to do with its economic problems".

[Max Blumenthal @MaxBlumenthal]

Trump defends convicted narco-trafficker and right-wing Honduran political ally Juan Orlando Hernandez, claiming he was "persecuted very unfairly"

Hernandez was prosecuted by Emil Bove, a Trump loyalist appointed by the president to the federal bench

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

Curious if they would do this for China or Iran (I’m not curious I know the answer and I think it’s useful they are boasting about being de facto state media)

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

They are not. This is a clever liberal evasion tactic also popular RE: Venezuela (2002) and Bolivia (2019): “This coup is unwise (possibly illegal) but something something we now need fair elections.” This way you distance yourself from an unseemly coup but implicitly endorse it

Chavista woman delivers a goosebump-inducing speech in Caracas against the US invasion and the kidnapping of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, calling to defend the country against imperialism.

[Adam Johnson @adamjohnsonCHI]

Would love for any of these US govt stenographers to explain why they are all using “captured” rather than “abducted.” Maduro isn’t wanted by any international or legitimate legal regime, only 1 out of 193 UN member states views him as a fugitive—the one that kidnapped him.

[COMBATE |🇵🇷 @upholdreality]

MADURO: "Western liberal democracy is in terminal decline. They no longer represent the people. Democracies without people, manipulated, serving billionaires and corporations, subjected to social media manipulation. The citizen has no power when it comes to fundamental issues."

[Div @askforcawmbyok]

Maduro is the democratically elected leader of Venezuela. Every election was carefully monitored by neutral observers. He wasn't super popular but he was more popular than the christo-fascist lunatics who wanted to be lapdogs for the US that he was running against.

[Marlon J. Ettinger @MarlonEttinger]

At a rally in Paris this evening, Jean-Luc Mélenchon called out the "servile press" who are trying to relativise America's invasion of Venezuela.

[الكسندرا ميراي @Lexi3Alexander]

The world is sick of hearing 350 million Americans say they're helpless and nothing is their fault

[Tehran Times @TehranTimes79]

#BREAKING
Venezuelans took to the streets of Caracas to protest against the U.S. aggression.

[Hoppy @Hoppydoesntread]

No American soldier who invades Venezuela deserves an ounce of sympathy. Not today, not 10 years from now when they’re complaining about their depression or disability they got from shooting kids, not 20 years from now when a movie about their trauma wins an Oscar. Never.

[Paul Blest @pblest]

Five hrs ago the US created a permission structure to invade any country and arrest any head of state for the crime of being an obstacle to Trump’s agenda. Can’t emphasize enough how your personal opinion on Maduro should be a thousand yards away from this conversation right now

[Robby @robbo_updates]

@split_the_fire sent this tweet to my deleuzian situationship and this was the response ...

[Nicole Lee Schroeder, PhD @Nicole_Lee_Sch]

When you wear an N95 to an organizing event you are sending a signal to high risk people that:
1. I care about you
2. I understand that public health has been made into a tool of propaganda
3. I will keep you safe, even if Im not worried for myself
4. I am willing to listen 1/3
