Having lost the election, the opposition immediately began violent attacks to incite terror and confusion. They attacked symbols of the Venezuelan Revolution: schools and health centers in working-class areas, public bus stations and buses, offices of Chavista communes and parties, and statues of figures who had set the Bolivarian Revolution in motion.

Every day since the election, hundreds of thousands of Chavistas have taken to the streets of Caracas and elsewhere. In each of these marches, the chant no volverán – they will not return – reverberated amongst the crowd. The oligarchy, they said, will not return.

"I would like to address the recurring question of those 'ordinary Russians' who 'shouldn’t be sanctioned'.

I hear talk of ordinary Russians’ innocence, but then I see ordinary Russians murdering ordinary Ukrainians.

I see ordinary Russian mothers saying goodbye to their ordinary Russian sons and wishing them good luck with their ordinary Russian war crimes.

I see ordinary Russians celebrating murder. I see ordinary Russian parents dressing up their ordinary Russian children in military uniforms and painting the letter Z on a cardboard tank costume.

I see ordinary Russians coming together to make a huge Z formation in the town square.

Ordinary Russia is sick. Healing will be a long and gruelling process which can only start when Russia, not just Putin, is defeated. Without a defeat in Ukraine, Russia will just keep spreading.

So about those “unfair” sanctions against “ordinary Russians”... Well, anything which slows down Russia’s total war machine will have ordinary Lithuanians’ support. Whatever victory takes. Slava Ukraini."

—Gabrielius Landsbergis, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Member of Parliament of Lithuania

Yesterday, Joe Biden signed off on economic sanctions against the state of Texas disallowing that republic from exporting LNG (liquid natural gas)

The first act in a state of war is always sanctions

I know what you are thinking,

Angie, the Biden admin only put a temporary pause on the pending approvals of LNG exports

The Biden admin's move is designed to act as a sanction against Texas… make no mistake

HERE

The export of LNG from Texas would likely be bound for countries in the EU; Germany, for example. Guess where Germany will get their LNG from… Russia Why would Biden do such of a thingy? Think Hunter… think Burisma Holdings

The Constitution of the United States of America was put in place to protect us from people like Joe Biden, Barrack Hussein Obama, George H W Bush, Paul Ryan, James Comey, and the Clintons; just to name a few

finished this comic (based on that wolf meme that's based on the proverb that's often falsely attributed to a mythic Cherokee elder...) ages ago & forgot about it, but these last weeks changed that...

I guess the "joke" is that it's easy to feel powerless, to feel rage and then burn out, or to act like all is well in order to create a false peace, but none of these things will change the world. we must hold each other close, breathe, and act out of love & not anger, so that we are able to act at all. there was a beautiful statement I came across this week that I can no longer find, something like: "you should not stand up to evil acts because you would hope that if our roles were reversed, I would do the same for you. that is patronage, not solidarity. solidarity is standing up for me, as I would for you, because it is part of the work of us creating a world where evil acts cannot take place." every voice that denounces this absolute global shame, this g3nocid3 unfolding before our eyes, that speaks beyond the alienation, the censorship, and the threats so needed to maintain such atrocities, is a voice that can carry us into a better world. so speak up.

learn from direct sources. and BOYCOTT! because human decency is not the language warmongers speak, it is money.

so why do you support iran the regime that quite literally executes women for not wearing hijab

We don't "support the Iranian regime", we support Iranian sovereignty and the right to choose their own direction, their own path and their own government without the military, economic, political and media interference of the entire Western bloc aligned against it, warping and stunting its development.

Gaza and all of Palestine have been under siege for decades, not only by bullets but also by economic sanctions. Belarus, China, Cuba, Iran, People’s Korea, Nicaragua, the Russian Federation, Venezuela, Yemen, and Zimbabwe have had their economies targeted by U.S. and European banksters for destruction.

In response, the 16-nation Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) designated Oct. 25 as Anti-Sanctions Day. This year, thousands of people marched in Harare, the capital of Zimbabwe, on Oct. 25 to say No! to this economic warfare.

The company that chartered the cargo ship that destroyed the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore was recently sanctioned by regulators for blocking its employees from directly reporting safety concerns to the U.S. Coast Guard — in violation of a seaman whistleblower protection law, according to regulatory filings reviewed by The Lever.

Eight months before a Maersk Line Limited-chartered cargo ship crashed into the Baltimore bridge, likely killing six people and injuring others, the Labor Department sanctioned the shipping conglomerate for retaliating against an employee who reported unsafe working conditions aboard a Maersk-operated boat. In its order, the department found that Maersk had “a policy that requires employees to first report their concerns to [Maersk]... prior to reporting it to the [Coast Guard] or other authorities.”
