It’s all talk. Just withhold foreign aid to Israel for a month and they’ll stop bombing their neighbors – instant peace, the Strait of Hormuz can be opened, and gas drops $2 a gallon. Israel has been, and continues to be, the biggest welfare recipient from American tax payers.

Asked About Stephen Miller, DNC Staffer Happy to Confirm: ‘I Stand by Calling Him an Ugly Fuck’

“I said what I said.”

That was Democratic National Committee (DNC) staffer Paulina Mangubat’s statement Thursday evening after her response to White House adviser Stephen Miller’s smear against Democratic US Senate candidate James Talarico of Texas went viral earlier this week.

After Miller posted a picture on Wednesday of Talarico with the comment that Democrats in Texas had nominated “their first transgender Senate candidate,” Mangubat, who serves as the DNC’s content and creative director and is behind many of the committee’s social media posts, had a concise response.

Trump dragged America into a war—an illegal, costly war without any goals or without any endgame—and has the nerve to call it a “mini-war” The best way to lower costs and end this chaos is to end this illegal war: Democrats are forcing a seventh vote on our War Powers Resolution this week to withdraw U.S. troops from hostilities with Iran

If Republicans vote against our resolution, they will continue to bear the blame for Trump’s war

Hadash Announces Primary Elections and Push for Joint List Consolidation

During the session, political leaders, including the Communist Party of Israel Secretary-General Adel Amer and Hadash Secretary Amjad Shbita, addressed the regional political situation. Discussions centered on the fragile ceasefire, the risk of renewed war on Iran and Lebanon, and the concerning rise of internal fascism and ongoing occupation of Palestinian, Lebanese and Syrian territories.

“The establishment of the Joint List is not merely a tactical maneuver,” Hadash stated in an official communique. “It is a fundamental mission to shift the political balance of power and intensify the struggle against the occupation.” In addition to election preparations, Hadash leadership issued a formal call for public mobilization. Activists and supporters are urged to participate in International Workers’ Day events on Friday, May 1, in Tel Aviv, on Saturday, May 2 in Nazareth and other localities.

China and Cuba’s solar revolution: solidarity in practice

As a result, Cuba’s share of solar in total electricity generation has risen from 5.8 per cent a year ago to over 20 per cent today.

(…)

Battery storage–currently in place at only four of Cuba’s 55 solar parks–will need to be expanded significantly to address the evening peak demand. Wind energy will also make a growing contribution, with 19 wind farms totaling 415 MW currently being built, again with Chinese support. But the pace of the solar buildout, measured against where Cuba was just months ago, is already extraordinary.

CPI and Hadash: The Ceasefire Is a Critical Step that Must Become a Permanent Peace

The Communist Party of Israel and the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality (Hadash) condemned on Wednesday evening, April 8, “the heinous and horrific massacre committed by the far-right Israeli government in Lebanon, only hours after the announcement of a temporary ceasefire in the war. This is a clear sign of the crisis facing war criminals, whose aggressive policies repeatedly fail to establish what they term the New World Order. Furthermore, Netanyahu and his government understand that ending the war signifies the collapse of their legitimacy and the end of their time in power.”

“We view the ceasefire in the war with Iran as a crucial development that must be maintained, defended, and turned into a standing agreement that guarantees peace and rights for the peoples of the region, while standing firm against any Israeli attempt to thwart it. We emphasize that this war has once again exposed the failure of the policies of aggression and the imperialist bullying of the US and Israel. It has proven that the logic of force, destruction, and occupation does not create security or stability, but rather drags the entire region into further ruin and bloodshed. We reaffirm that the only path to security, stability, and a better future for all peoples of the land and the region is not the path of war and aggression, but a political path based on ending the occupation—as it is the heart of the regional conflict—and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state in all territories occupied by Israel in June 1967,” they said in the common communique.

Democratic senators file war powers resolution to check Trump on Cuba

The resolution filed Thursday by Democratic Sens. Tim Kaine, Ruben Gallego and Adam Schiff would require the president to remove the military from any hostilities with Cuba and could potentially receive a vote by the end of the month.

„Only Congress has the power to declare war under the Constitution, but he operates with the belief that the U.S. military is a palace guard, ordering military action in the Caribbean, Venezuela, and Iran without Congress‘ authorization or any explanation for his actions to the American people,“ Kaine said in a statement.

Merzens dreifacher Kotau in Washington

Merz’ Washington-Besuch macht zugleich deutlich, was zum Minimalprogramm der Wiederherstellung demokratischer Souveränität in Deutschland gehört. Ohne eine Kündigung der US-Basen – insbesondere von Ramstein, über die der völkerrechtswidrige Angriffskrieg gegen den Iran mit geführt wird – ist dies nicht zu erreichen. Was die NATO angeht, zeigen Trumps Drohungen im Zusammenhang mit Militärbasen eindeutig, dass allein ein Austritt aus dem Militärpakt der jeweiligen europäischen Regierung die Möglichkeit eröffnet, eigenständig über die Außen- und Sicherheitspolitik ihres Landes zu entscheiden.
