We are disappointed that the U.N. Security Council has approved a slipshod Gaza “peace plan” that ignores the aspirations of people in Gaza — and is all but doomed to collapse.

After sending U.S. troops to occupy U.S. cities and murder people in the Caribbean, Trump now plans to sign them up to fight and die for a despot who waged a brutal war in Yemen and funneled billions to Trump’s friends and family.

New reporting indicates that Trump is once again planning military strikes in Mexico to “combat drug cartels.” The truth is, U.S. strikes on Mexican cartels will only create human suffering and chaos. We know because we ran a tabletop exercise of this exact scenario.
Trump administration is planning new mission in Mexico against cartels, current and former U.S. officials say
The new operation would include U.S. troops on the ground in Mexico striking drug labs and cartel leaders, according to current and former U.S. officials, though a deployment is not imminent.

As I previously said, the Trump Administration’s actions in the Caribbean Sea are illegal and unconstitutional.
Today’s military assault off of the coast of Venezuela is just the next in a series of criminal acts committed by President Trump and Secretary Hegseth.

Though nice to see Jon Finer and Philip Gordon catch up to bare minimum of where activists and the public have been for nearly two years on restricting US arms to the Israeli government, their article erases their own role in abetting the Netanyahu government’s genocide.

President Trump announced another two boat bombings in the Caribbean today. The U.S. military killed at least 3 more people in what amount to extrajudicial executions, done without oversight or approval from anyone but Trump himself. These deadly PR stunts cannot be allowed to continue.
