The Trump administration is attempting to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey for what it calls disclosing classified information, employing the unusual maneuver of bypassing a grand jury — a move Comey's lawyers say makes the case legally invalid. https://to.pbs.org/47J21Jj

"This weaponization of law enforcement to harass a sitting member of Congress 22 days before an election is unprecedented and unacceptable," 175 House Democrats wrote to Trump's attorney general and DHS chief about the raid on Rep. Ilhan Omar's home.

Brown and RISD students have taken the streets, joined by Providence community members, to demand justice for Nolan Wells and Kohen Wiley! Nolan Wells didn't drown, police executing 1 year old Kohen could never possibly be justified, and we are fed up with the racist capitalist system.

🇷🇸 SERBIA. Wow! A student-led coalition spent 2 yrs protesting corruption. They created a diverse list of parliamentary candidates who ousted the far-right autocratic party of 14 yrs. The Student List won 53% of the vote. 140 of 250 seats. Pollsters say 67% turnout was the highest since 1992! 🧵

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

Mark Carney on what Elon Musk's throttling of Starlink means for Canada: "We do not want to be caught in a situation where we are reliant on one provider that puts Canadians at risk or compromises our sovereignty, our ability to express our values and live our values."

As @thejuicemedia.com illustrates coherently, the protests around the world are echoing each other because multinational plutocrats have screwed us over in almost the same ways, and tried to crush our ability to protest it. Watch & share. #Auspol Me glaring at the “neoliberal thought collective”

The Government™ has made an ad about all these protests happening around the world, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

Brazil will get more attention either way it goes, but this is truly an incredible victory for the student protesters. We ran this in March 2025, which explained the movement's strengths but seemed overly optimist in the months that followed. 18 months later, they succeeded. Gen Z strikes again.

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

It's funny.... The West's greatest moral failure of the 20th Century was not stopping the Holocaust killing 6 million Jews perpetrated by Germany. The West's greatest moral failure of the 21st Century was not stopping the GENOCIDE in Gaza perpetrated by Jews.

The West’s greatest moral failure this century? Its support for and complicity with the racist sadistic fascist genocidal ethnic cleansing apartheid Israeli government. We give them $ & bombs to murder children. BDS! Take action NOW! WWW.USCPR.org
