Yesterday's election results must not diminish the urgency of building the grassroots capacity to resist the institutions of the state and bring about the future that we desire.
First, because it is clear that Donald Trump will not leave power voluntarily.
But even more importantly, because the Democrats do not represent a real alternative. The Biden administration drove millions of people to vote for Trump because the Democrats offer no actual solutions to the problems that capitalism is creating.
Real change is up to us.

Результат вчерашних выборов не должен уменьшать необходимость укрепления способности низовых движений сопротивляться институтам государства и приближать будущее, о котором мы мечтаем.
Во-первых, потому что очевидно, — Дональд Трамп не уйдёт от власти добровольно.
Но, что ещё важнее, потому что демократы не представляют собой реальной альтернативы. Администрация Байдена подтолкнула миллионы людей проголосовать за Трампа, потому что демократы не предлагают реальных решений проблем, создаваемых капитализмом.
Настоящие перемены зависят от нас.

We concur with a jury in Washington, DC that tossing a sandwich at a federal agent should not be considered criminal activity.
In completely unrelated news, everyone should know about jury nullification!
A jury has an absolute right to return any verdict it chooses. You can return a verdict of NOT GUILTY if you consider a law, punishment, or prosecutor unjust.
Mind you, if you mention this during selection, you may not end up on a jury.
Pass it on!

Réflexions depuis Cambridge sur la campagne contre Elbit

La résiliation anticipée du bail de l’année dernière pour le bureau de KMC est la première fois que des militant·es aux États-Unis ont contraint Elbit Systems à fermer une de ses installations. C’est aussi un des rares succès que compte le mouvement américain de solidarité avec la Palestine depuis le début du génocide à Gaza, en 2023. Cette analyse anonyme étudie la campagne d’actions directes ciblées menée pendant un an qui a réussi à expulser KMC Systems de la ville de Cambridge.

Essentially, the government shutdown represented a Democratic Party effort to present itself as opposing the Republican agenda despite lacking the political power to halt it through the instruments of the state.
It was always performative.
As Donald Trump consolidates autocratic control, real opposition will require grassroots forms of outright resistance. No one is coming to save us.
So here’s a different proposal for how to address the shutdown of the US government: make it comprehensive and permanent.

On November 11, 1887, in the midst of the fight for the eight-hour workday, four anarchists were executed as scapegoats for the Haymarket riot. This established May Day as a day of labor struggle around the world.

Learning and practicing proper security culture is essential to all kinds of organizing—especially today, when Donald Trump has pledged to focus federal agencies on attacking anti-fascists.

They tell us that dangerous people are on the loose, threatening our communities.
But if anyone is dangerous, it is those who would do harm to their neighbors in return for a bribe—those who sell their capacity to inflict violence to the highest bidder.

Gregory Bovino, the Border Patrol official leading the Trump administration’s anti-immigrant crackdowns, is bringing his forces to attack people in Charlotte, North Carolina next.
Like LA, DC, and Chicago, the previous targets of ICE crackdowns, Charlotte has a Black mayor and is majority non-white. One of the chief purposes of these crackdowns is to normalize using federal forces to terrorize people of color.
What's new is that Charlotte is in a swing state. This has ominous implications.
ICE crackdowns have not been popular with the general public or good for the economy. Kidnapping laborers who work for disproportionately low wages is bad for business. Thus far, Trump has focused the crackdowns on cities controlled by Democrats as a means of exerting economic pressure while avoiding impacting his supporters.

On the heels of Democrats' electoral victories and spineless capitulation ending the government shutdown, the decision to target a city in a swing state suggests that the Trump administration is not concerned about electoral blowback. Whatever elections the Democrats might win, they have shown that they will collapse under pressure.
In other words—targeting a city in a swing state suggests that the Trump administration does not intend to leave power voluntarily.

Twenty years ago, Timur Kacharava, an anti-fascist and hardcore musician, was murdered by neo-Nazis in St. Petersburg, Russia.
In this text, his friends and bandmates revisit Timur's life, embracing "an obligation to interpret our own experience of loss and defeat as a collective promise charged with hope."

20 лет назад, 13 ноября 2005 года, антифашист и хардкор-музыкант Тимур Качарава погиб в результате варварского нападения неонацистов в самом центре Санкт-Петербурга. И хотя его смерть стала для нас не только огромной личной утратой, но и событием, во многом определившим дальнейшие траектории наших жизней, нам меньше всего хотелось бы, чтобы этот текст был похож на некролог, сентиментальное воспоминание или биографическую справку. Цель, которую мы преследуем, превосходит любой личный опыт и любую личную биографию.
Через апелляцию к событиям двадцатилетней давности мы хотим обратиться к современному миру, в первую очередь к нашим друзьям и к тем, кто может ими стать. Сегодня, когда неолиберальный капитализм стремительно трансформируется в откровенный фашизм, мы признаем обязательство прочесть собственный опыт потерь и поражений как заряженное надеждой коллективное обещание.
