We need a working-class party with a socialist and anti-imperialist perspective that is completely independent of the Democrats. 1/2.

Texas is banning abortions after 5 or 6 weeks. Dozens of other anti abortion laws are being passed around the country. This is what it took to legalize abortion in Argentina: a mass movement. This is what we need in the U.S. to fight back. Free, legal abortion on demand.

Shops in Manhattan are boarding up their storefronts. But workers doing the job show their solidarity with the protests, using the planks to echo the chants. The ruling class divides and oppresses us, but we fight back with solidarity. #BlackLivesMatter #WorkersOfTheWorldUnite

At the #HuntsPointStrike, we met Marcos, a striking worker, who's just started reading Farrell Dobbs’ Teamster Rebellion. We asked him why. His response? “It teaches you about how the union started. I wanna learn more. I wanna have more power. I want more people to have a union.”

The Democratic Party establishment put its weight behind ousting Cuomo to save its legitimacy. This is the same party that gave Biden cover when Tara Reade and other survivors shared their stories. It's not one bad apple. The whole bunch is rotten.

Kyle Rittenhouse brought a gun to a protest and murdered 2 people. There is no question about these facts. He will walk free. Julius Jones was eating dinner with his family when a white man was carjacked & he doesn't match the description of the killer. He gets life in prison.

After the racist French police murdered #Nahel M. (a 17-year-old boy of Algerian and Moroccan descent) a paramedic arrived on the scene and berated the cops. Clearly, there are sectors of the French working class ready to struggle against the racism of the French state. 🧵
