    My father (Marines) and his father (Army) come to mind on Veterans Day. More specifically, how poverty and the draft have driven Black and Latinx men over generations to serve a country that has never served them.

    I analyzed Biden's Pentagon transition team and found that one third of its members work for think tanks, organizations, or companies that either directly receive money from the weapons industry—or are part of the arms industry themselves.

    We are still on alert for a stolen election. The news of Trump stacking the DoD with loyalists is a high alert. Other ways dictators keep power is by creating and declaring states of emergencies through warfare.

    The Obama years taught us it's vital to issue bold, left demands from the outset--to not give an inch to forces of war & capitalism that mobilized hard during the Obama admin and are mobilizing swiftly now. We don't owe anyone a honeymoon or breathing space--we need to save lives

    Developing story out of Philly. A group of people with guns drove from VA to Philly to shoot up people/ area counting ballots. I bet they were white. They were arrested, not killed, by the cops.

    NYPD’s violent response to peaceful protestors is extremely disturbing. It reflects the same egregious police brutality inflicted on residents lawfully protesting the needless death of countless Black and brown victims of police violence this summer.

  18. NYPD was trying to clear the street to make an arrest. Aggressively. Officers then appeared to begin setting up for mass arrests— we intervened to try and de-escalate and prevent that. Most importantly, there seems to be a lack of leadership when the City needs it the most.
