if you want to talk about trauma its muslims and peoples of west asia who are facing the trauma of war directed at their homelands and a barrage of genocidal racism and islamophobia by social and political leaders in western countries- and yet there remains a demand for them to ALWAYS behave calmly and never lash out in anger - to be as @m7mdkurd has described "perfect victims"

this is an unreasonable and dehumanizing demand

[🍓🇵🇸 mirah @snackvampire]

@signed_EZ ah yes on twitter, the rational anger professionalism website

[Alex JER-dun @alexjordanATL]

when Dems attack Trump as "soft on China," they reinforce the idea that the US is in a zero-sum struggle with Beijing

existentializing our problems with China helps justfy the idea that a US-China war is inevitable and necessary

this shit is stupid & dangerous — cut it out!

The Communist Party Marxist – Kenya published a statement on November 10th calling on the Spanish government to grant imprisoned political prisoner and philanthropist Fergie Chambers asylum, and called for his freedom.

The party also supported global call to action to demand Fergie's asylum and release on November 13th and 14th, an effort led by supporters of Chambers.

The statement goes on to say: "We demand his immediate release, the rejection of the American extradition request, and the granting of political asylum in Spain, together with all necessary protection against political persecution. We address ourselves directly to the President of the Government of Spain, Pedro Sánchez, and the Spanish Government: Do not extradite Comrade Fergie Chambers to the United States. Grant him political asylum. End his imprisonment and uphold the principles of justice, human rights and international solidarity.

This is not simply a legal question concerning one individual. It is a political question with international consequences. It concerns the right of people everywhere to oppose imperialist aggression, defend the Palestinian people and provide humanitarian assistance to populations subjected to war, occupation and collective punishment."

The full statement can be read on the Communist Party Marxist – Kenya website.

Ahead of Fergie Chambers' extradition hearing set for November 13th, Chambers' legal team has accused the Trump administration of altering translations of the criminal complaint handed to the Spanish state, making the charges sound violent and deadly.

Chambers' legal team, ILOCAD, published a press release last week stating that the U.S. made “12 substantial alterations” in English-to-Spanish, adding words like “violent”, “detonate” and “fires” that are not in the original text.

The legal team has called these alterations a “translation [that] has fictitiously added incriminating acts, in presumed bad faith”, with a goal to "Lead Spanish authorities to commit errors in evaluating the facts [of the case] and in deciding about the extradition".

Silent complicity from the same western officials who were just bleating about war crimes & humanity and "standing with Saudi Arabia" when an Ansarallah missile hit Riyadh airport terminal, fired in retaliation for the many criminal Saudi attacks on Yemen. https://t.co/KxgYPdXpJ8

Just as @RoKhanna is set to lead a relatively pro-diplomacy China Committee, anti-China hawks on @HouseForeign are working with @RepJeffries to try to kill it.

Yet another attack on progressives in Congress by Dem leadership if this holds

[Arya Yadegaar @AryJeayBackup]

❗️It’s public now: Iran’s top security chief, Mohsen Rezaei, has warned European countries that US military bases in European countries will be targeted on their soil if they facilitate the US in attacks on Iran. Rezaei says he advises all countries that host US military bases on their soil not to cooperate with any US military attacks against Iran.

This specific warning was briefed to Europe about a month ago, but is now public.

He also says if the US make the mistake of attacking Kuh Kolang (Pickaxe mountain), we will not only target nearby bases, we will also target all American bases, even those located far away. Iran may target certain islands that they believe are beyond the range of Iran’s missiles.

He says Iranian armed forces have removed previous limitations, and in the event of a new war, “we will lift these limitations even further.”

We need a serious investigation into why Hakeem Jeffries was unable to get enough Dems to attend the vote on Hegseth yesterday.

If he was busy whipping members for the Speaker vote instead, that is a severe misalignment in priorities and wildly disappointing.

fwiw Van Hollen went to CECOT and visited Kilmar Abrego Garcia and brought him home at a time when people like Matt Yglesias and others were telling Democrats not to engage Trump on immigration issues.

[Stephen Semler @stephensemler]

AIPAC-backed @WhipKClark skipped the vote to impeach an architect of a war AIPAC lobbied for, to fundraise for her AIPAC-linked PAC.

AIPAC-backed @RepJeffries didn’t corral Clark/other Dems at the fundraiser (2 mi from the Capitol)

11 Dems skipped vote; impeachment blocked by 7

Speaking of Jeffries getting his caucus in line, what’s the news on what consequence Haley Stevens will be facing?

[Jake Romm @jake_romm]

better for the ICC to cease to exist entirely than for it to acquiesce to even a single one of these "compromises"

[Andrew Solender @AndrewSolender]

NEW: I caught up w/ Rep-elect Don Leonard on Capitol Hill yesterday

- He told @axios he was told by "folks who have been on the Hill for a really long time" that "the leader is going to pursue his message and agenda as he sees fit, and [said], 'Don't be insane. How could you possibly stand in the way?'"

- He wants Jeffries to commit to supporting a Constitutional amendment to ban super PACs, in addition to ending all U.S. funding to Israel

- He said he is "confused and frustrated" about the Democratic caucus' committee selection rules that largely exclude freshmen from the most coveted panels: "When we're less democratic than the Republican Party ... that raises questions for me."

- He met Jeffries for the first time on Tuesday and "shook his hand and I asked him for six minutes"

"I'm going to hope that I can persuade him in the six minutes that we don't have to cross that bridge, but my constituents aren't bluffing and neither am I."
