    First they get a black police commissioner, Richard Ross, to justify the arrest of two black men at Starbucks. Now they get a black mayor, AJ Connors, to justify the chokehold of a black teenager at Waffle House. Same predictable playbook. Same injustice.

    Surprising that it's even a news story. Skirting US airspace & measuring time to intercept has been happening for decades. It's another faux-news story with the sole purpose of inciting fear in the masses.

    Why discuss 'free press' when acts on orders of local gov. to disseminate smears on those opposing the official line? 3/4 hour after I'd left mtg. at which I was told 'Media on Trial' cancelled 's article was published. Collusion?
    Theresa May today backed The Yorkshire Post and other newspapers in urging MPs to vote against measures which would “undermine pur free press” tomorrow. A Tory source suggested to me last week Ministers are cautiously optimistic of winning the votes.

    We must stand firm against the assumption by the warmongers of both parties who assume that the people will follow them in a criminal and insane war with Iran. This is why we need a new anti-war movement. Support Black Alliance for Peace today:

    This should not be allowed to be swept under the rug. If we can't speak freely without being beaten up, jailed, abused by our so-called 'civilian police' then stop calling this a Free Country. Has anyone on the Corp Media interviewed Ray McGovern?? I don't watch it so wondering

    For the 4th week in a row, Phily activists protest the Philly Orchestra’s upcoming trip to Israel, which includes a "VIP visit to an IDF military base" - the same IDF that killed 42 and injured over 5,000 Palestinians in the last month.

    On this birthday of Marx, we call on Western radicals to cease all class collaboration with their national bourgeoisie & opposed U.S. & European imperialist adventures in the Global South. Tell your rulers they can no longer rule the world & stand with us or go down with them.
