Sign the pledge
I am ready to support an AOC campaign for President of the United States, and I encourage her to run. I commit myself to:
I commit myself to:
– Vote for AOC in a Presidential election
– Volunteer for an AOC campaign for President, including canvassing and phone banking
– Talk to the people in my life about why I want AOC to run for President, and ask them to sign this pledge
“The goal is to build the infrastructure of a grassroots movement in the case that she decides to run, but also to demonstrate to her that, ‘Look, there is a movement behind you ready to power you to victory should you choose to run for president,’” Ravi Sahai, a spokesperson for the group, told The New York Times.
Ready for AOC has already recruited more than 500 local political leaders and labor organizers in 35 states to begin gathering signatures.
Ocasio-Cortez has said she would consider whether to run for president or Senate, if she will launch a bid for another public office at all, after the midterm elections.
The agreements include committee chairmanships and ministerial positions.
Eisenkot managed to secure the position of Knesset speaker for Yashar, with Elazar Stern, Matan Kahana, and Eisenkot himself in the running.
Eisenkot is expected to meet with Democrats leader Yair Golan to advance negotiations on a coalition agreement, following his meeting with Lieberman.
The House of Representatives is barreling toward a vote on impeaching Secretary of War Pete Hegseth this week, and several GOP lawmakers think it could very well pass.
The Kentucky Republican‘s resolution accuses Hegseth of high crimes and misdemeanors and lists eight specific charges against him.
The allegations include:
3 charges for illegally waging war against Iran in violation of the War Powers Resolution
1 charge for ignoring laws designed to minimize civilian casualties
1 charge for overseeing „extrajudicial killings“ in the Caribbean Sea and Eastern Pacific Ocean with strikes on alleged drug boats
1 charge for suppressing free speech, brought in connection to the effort to punish Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., for a video telling service members they can refuse illegal orders
1 charge for the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro without congressional authorization
1 charge for illegally waging war against Yemen in violation of the War Powers Resolution

A 2 MW solar park in Wallonia, Belgium, will rely 50 kW of hydrogen-producing solar modules developed by Solhyd, a spin-off from KU Leuven. The installation will be the first demonstration of Solhyd’s technology at a commercially-relevant scale.
A consortium of Belgian companies has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to build an energy system that features hydrogen-producing solar modules in Wallonia, Belgium.
Billed as the world’s first solar hydrogen park, the installation will see 50 kW of hydrogen-producing solar modules developed by Solhyd integrated into a traditional 2 MW solar park that is connected to battery storage.
The site, which will begin operating next year, will be capable of producing both electricity and hydrogen from solar energy. It is set to operate for five years.

For over a decade, Professor Johan Martens and Drs. Tom Bosserez, Jan Rongé and Christos Trompoukis have been developing a ‘solar hydrogen panel’, i.e. a solar panel that can create hydrogen from the water vapour in the air. Using sunlight, moisture taken from the air – i.e. no liquid water – is split into hydrogen on the one hand, and oxygen molecules on the other.
The panel is able to directly convert no less than 15 per cent of sunlight into hydrogen gas, Which is a world record
Als Spin-Off des Karlsruher Instituts für Technologie (KIT) entwickeln wir hochinnovative skalierbare Technologien für die solare Produktion von grünem Wasserstoff – ohne Umwege und Umwandlung von Elektrizität.
Unsere zum Patent angemeldeten Erfindungen bilden die Grundlage für ein Solarpaneel-System, das simpel nachweisbar inhärent grünen Wasserstoff produziert (z. B. für RFNBO-Konformität auf EU-Level).

Photreon, a start-up project at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), aims to boost the hydrogen economy with mass-produced photoreactor panels that require no electrolyzers, consume no electricity, and do not need a grid connection. With the panels, hydrogen can be produced cost-effectively in a scalable manner from sunlight and water – suitable for both distributed applications and large-scale systems in sunny regions. During the Hannover Messe, April 20–24, 2026, photreon will be presenting at the KIT booth (Hall 11, Booth B06).

KIT has filed a patent application for the photoreactor panel implemented by photreon.

This study introduces an air-to-H2 system that employs multilayer hygroscopic hydrogen evolution (HHE) nanofiber membranes (NFMs) for efficient green H2 production, with clean water generated as a byproduct (Fig. 1a).
The proposed infrastructure pathway up to 2040 shows the vision of 32 European network operators, based on national analyses of availability of existing natural gas infrastructure, future natural gas market developments, and future hydrogen market developments under an accelerated and ambitious climate scenario.
(April 4, 2023)
According to the EHB’s 2030 hydrogen infrastructure map, a total length of ~28 000 km in 2030 and 53 000 km by 2040 is envisioned in the 28 European countries involved. Currently, dedicated hydrogen pipelines that will be available by 2030 amount to 23 365 km, which is 83% of 2030 target.
„There should be no coronation,“ Van Hollen said during an interview Saturday at the Crooked Con political conference in Washington, D.C. „I said very clearly that we need to have a discussion in the Democratic Caucus. We need to understand what the Democrats are going to do with this new responsibility and these new powers, and that nobody should get a blank check without a full understanding from the caucus as to where we‘re going to go.“
While the large Democratic majority in the House makes it easier for Jeffries to maneuver leading up to the leadership vote, and given that no challenger has stepped forward to take him on directly, the betting money is still safe that Jeffries will be the next Speaker of the House.
The position of the Joint List
These are times that call for a stand to oust Netanyahu and his fascist allies. Therefore, despite the incitement and the racism, the Joint List recommended Eisenkot to the Israeli president for the latter do not have any excuse of calling for a unity government, and as a fulfillment of the will of over 500,000 Arab Palestinian and Jewish voters who wish to see Netanyahu ousted.
According to CPI and Hadash, toppling this government is a historic task. The danger posed by the Netanyahu-Ben-Gvir-Smotrich government goes beyond discrimination, home demolitions and the spread of crime and racism afflicting our communities. It is a government of war, extermination and displacement in Gaza, of deepening occupation and settlement, of unchecked settler terror in the West Bank, and of a drive to liquidate the Palestinian cause. Its continuation threatens the whole region, and the presence of President Trump in the White House raises the danger further by offering cover for war, annexation and displacement. Hence, the results of the midterm elections in the US could hold positive prospectives regarding an alternation in US foreign policy especially in matters of supporting Israel’s continuous violations of international law in the Palestinian Occupied Territories and the region.

Eisenkot, a former military chief, ran as the main challenger to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, leading a bloc of parties seeking to oust Israel‘s longest-serving premier.
„Now is the time to form a national emergency government. I will do everything to ensure we are worthy,“ Eisenkot wrote on X in his first reaction to the announcement of his designation.

France Unbowed is holding a major campaign rally at Le Bourget, near Paris, as its leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon gains momentum ahead of April’s presidential election, currently polling in second place. France 24 reporter Olivia Bizot is standing by.
(November 6, 2026)
„New France“ has now become the central pillar of Jean-Luc Mélenchon‘s political agenda. Barely mentioned in 2022, the political concept gradually developed in recent months now runs throughout L‘Avenir en commun („The Future Together“), the program of radical-left La France Insoumise (LFI). „This program proposes to create an entirely new France,“ writes presidential candidate Mélenchon in the introduction to the policy book published Friday, November 6, ahead of its official presentation at a convention in the northeastern Paris suburb of Le Bourget on Saturday.
The November 7 demonstration comes amid a wider wave of protests across France, with workers, students and unions demanding action over wages, purchasing power and public services.
In Paris, the main union-backed march is scheduled to move from Place de la République to Place de la Nation along Boulevard Voltaire. A separate Yellow Vests gathering has also been called at Place de la Concorde, despite being banned by authorities.
The demonstrations come just days after a major nationwide strike on November 5, highlighting continuing public anger over living costs and government spending priorities.
Die Demonstration am Samstag, dem 7. November 2026, in Paris spielt sich an zwei Orten ab. Zum einen startet der Zug des Gewerkschaftsbündnisses um 14 Uhr an der Place de la République und zieht zur Place de la Nation, durch das 3., 10., 11. und 12. Arrondissement, auf einer Route, die an diesem Freitag von der Polizeipräfektur genehmigt wurde. Zum anderen ruft die Koordination der Gelbwesten zur selben Uhrzeit auf die Place de la Concorde im 8. Arrondissement; diese Versammlung wurde jedoch von der Präfektur verboten.
Diese beiden Aufrufe stammen nicht von denselben Organisatoren, haben aber eine gemeinsame Forderung: die hohen Lebenshaltungskosten. Sie kommen zwei Tage nach dem branchenübergreifenden Streik vom Donnerstag, dem 5. November, dem am stärksten besuchten Streik des Herbstes.
French unions and student groups took to the streets for another day of protests on Saturday, while the Yellow Vests movement planned a separate rally in central Paris despite a ban by authorities. The demonstrations follow weeks of youth-led unrest and nationwide strikes that drew hundreds of thousands of workers protesting over the rising cost of living.
