We need to continue the momentum of the student protests and not funnel the energy into the Democratic Party. Workers and students alike need a party of their own as a vehicle for all struggle!!
Spoke with @DrJillStein yesterday at the UMKC liberation zone for Palestine and she confirmed she will be a speaker at the @wrkrsstrikeback rally at the DNC in August!
MY THEORY ABOUT WHY STUDENTS ARE PROTESTING: they are upset about israeli military activity in gaza, and the role the united states government has in it
bloody press vests laid outside the white house correspondents’ dinner for all the palestinian journalists killed
The support coming out of the Middle East for American students literally destroys the argument that they hate us regardless if we support them or not. It was never true, it was always just a means of getting us to blindly agree with the mass murdering Arab civilians.

While dems scream that third parties are ruining democracy, both @CornelWest and @DrJillStein are at these student encampments and are standing for what people in the streets are angry about. We have the opportunity to build a mass movement for working people.

Bit personal, but I managed to get my blood pressure down from 132/88 (high-normal, not good tbh) to 103/70 (very solidly in the optimal range, which is anything below 120/80). Did it with no blood pressure meds, just diet and exercise. Very proud!

She's helped break a strike, consistently endorsed biden's abysmal climate and immigration policies to name only a few. She's not building anything except the democratic party. We need real worker representatives who actually build an independent movement for working people.

This is why I can't stand her. She endorses Biden and then pretends to be outraged by the war crimes which wouldn't happen without Biden's support.

Shit like this is why this interview @OnStrikeShow did with @ShawnFainUAW is so important. He does express an important openess to build a party that’s not bought by big business, but leaves it off in the future. Instead @UAW members should fight to #UnendorseBiden for #ceasefire

Watch! The labor movement needs to REFUSE to support Biden in solidarity with the antiwar movement, and needs to begin building a new party for the working class. But such a new party cannot be built if we succumb to lesser evilism every presidential election.

Columbus Police exactly one year ago when dealing with armed neo nazis vs today when dealing with college protesters.
Think about how fast this country sent hordes of riot police with tear gas, batons, and tasers to arrest anti-war students & their teachers. Now think about every medical bill you've paid, every homeless person you've seen, every school that relies on bake sales to buy supplies.
The deadline is less than 8 hours away, the Negotiator for UAW Daimler Trucks have been working hard for the last month to win a record contract that brings workers the dignity they’ve EARNED! Tic Toc!!
