Chicago Mayor Issues Defiant Call For A General Strike

It was an audacious proposal, given that the U.S. has never held a true, nationwide general strike.

Protestors are asked to wear the colour yellow to increase visibility and uniformity.

If you have extra yellow tape, clothes, or ribbons help distribute it to others. For example, you can cut old shirts and make arm bands or head bands. #3E #NoKings #50501Movement #indivisible #wearetheflood

Saturday, October 18th.
Wear yellow.
Show up.
Show out.

Turn off your Face ID and Touch ID if you are taking your phones to the protests. Keep it in airplane mode and use encrypted apps where possible. Protect yourself.

Sen. Sanders: No, Speaker Johnson, the #NoKings rally on Oct. 18 is not a hate America rally. It’s a Love America Rally. It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in our Constitution, in the American Freedom, and who’s not gonna let you or Trump turn this country into an authoritarian society.

Yes, I do know the meanings.
What interests me more is that you are trying to denounce the left. No comment on a Qatari air base in Idaho? Was this repaying the bribe?

A few steps forward, a few steps back, sometimes no real movement. Syria is slowly but surely unlearning Assad.

Israel promueve la liberación de militantes yihadists y se niega a liberar a los líderes de la resistencia laica. Lo mismo hizo Assad en Siria, favoreciendo la liberación de los fundamentalistas. La táctica de cuanto peor, mejor.

Summary of the Trump admin's comms:

Iran may have nuclear weapons but our intelligence shows they do not but they probably do but we have the best intelligence in the world but our intelligence is probably wrong and we're not going to ask why our intelligence is wrong but it probably is.

“Syrian Christians and Syrians”?? Most Syrians maintain that they are one people and hate this sectarian division.

I’m sure others have said it before: the most powerful man on earth is not Donald Trump. It’s Benjamin Netanyahu, leading the US by the nose.
