I just saw the headline, "USS Lincoln wasn't resupplied because Hegseth 'hid' that Iran destroyed critical base: Rohde" Are the requests of Naval ships in distress being suppressed to prevent news of the Secretary of Beer Pong's operational failures reaching the White House?

The Trump administration has quietly reactivated operations at Roosevelt Roads, one of the largest naval bases in the world located in Puerto Rico. The base served as a strategic point of U.S. control over Latin America until it was shuttered in 2004 following anti-base activism on Vieques.

Activists do not want Puerto Rico to be a launching pad for aggression against fellow Latin American nations.

This man is bribed regularly so that more of us will die needlessly and he accepts that bargain for his own benefit. When I say regularly on here that there isn't that much difference between the parties this is what I mean.

“House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries announced his opposition to Medicare for All on the same day a CBS News poll found 90 percent of Democratic voters support the idea—and 72 hours after a Yale University study showed the program would save 114,000 American lives and $1 trillion every year.”

NEW: It took less than two minutes for a judge to close the first-degree murder case against Stephen Pina. But the brief hearing on August 13 at Suffolk County Superior Court in #Boston was the culmination of Pina’s decades-long fight to clear his name. #Massachusetts #mapoli

Last week, this church in Roseburg was preaching that their God is going to genocide all the Muslims and Israel will be all but destroyed as well. No wonder it's so popular with the girlfriend of Proud Boy leader Enrique Tarrio.

I found the Proud Boy church, Serena's (Right Side Rebel, who is dating Enrique Tarrio) church. Roseburg Christian Fellowship, a Calvary Chapel Church, of course. These are the pastors who baptized her recently.

Happy Black August! “Prestige bars any serious attack on power. Do people attack a thing they consider with awe, with a sense of its legitimacy?” George Jackson, “Blood In My Eye”

Photograph of George Jackson’s “Blood In My Eye” standing up opened on a table to page 50. You can see trees in the background. GEORGE JACKSON The prestige of power as the subjective effect of a past deed or reputation, real or fancied, then has a very definite life process. The prestige of the capitalist class inside the U.S. reached its maturity with the close of the 1860-64 civil war. Since that time there have been no serious threats to their power; their excesses have taken on a certain legitimacy through long usage. Prestige bars any serious attack on power. Do people attack a thing they consider with awe, with a sense of its legitimacy? In the process of things, the prestige of power emerges roughly in that period when power does not have to exercise its underlying basis—violence. Having proved and established itself, it drifts, secure from any serious challenge. Its automatic defense-attack instincts remain alert; small threats are either ignored away, laughed away, or in the cases that may build into something dangerous, slapped away. To the masters of capital, the most dreadful omen of all is revolutionary scientific socialism. The gravedigger evokes fear re-sponse. Prestige wanes if the first attacks on its power base find it wanting. Prestige dies when it cannot prevent further attacks upon itself. All intellectual arguments against the necessity of counter-violence, even in the opening stages of a People's War against an industrial establishment such as the one in the U.S.A., are false. We can stop the debate; prestige must be destroyed. People must see the venerated institutions and the "omnipotent administrator" actually under physical at-tack. They must be assured that the heavens will not hurl 50

This is violence. This is not a natural disaster. This is violence. What they are doing to Cuba is violence. Their terrorism in the Caribbean is violence. You fucking people LOVE to imagine Puerto Rico as a savior from having to confront the Slave Power that rules you but as an ally you offer ZERO.

Joe Biden allowed a felon with a long history of proximity to organized crime obtain access to the nuclear launch capability of the United States government. This was not on voters it was on the corrupt Democratic Party who clearly sided with fascists over the people. We must destroy more than ICE.

New: 3 yrs ago I published exposé revealing Richard Hanania used pseudonym to write for Nazi sites Ever since I've watched centrist media rehabilitate him, accepting his ludicrous claim to have left white nationalism behind. My look at what it means, for @marisakabas.bsky.social' The Handbasket

You don’t have to hand it to Richard Hanania

The so-called "former" white supremacist's work doesn't show accountability—or that he's actually moved on from his earlier views, Christopher Mathias writes.

Lagunas was identified on social media by community ICE watchdog Ismael Cordová-Clough one week ago. In both Chicago and Minneapolis, he has threatened people by telling them they won't "like the outcome" if they continue observing. We've watched his behavior escalate over the last year.

I’m learning about how seventh century Japanese elites codified their genealogies into written Shinto sacred texts to justify their rule. As I write about it I’ve realized the sacred duties demanded of some civilizations’ leaders are actually democratic mechanisms for holding elites accountable.
