Some people claim that supporting a “pragmatic” two-state solution isn’t Zionism. But let’s be clear: a two-state solution is, by definition, a Zionist position. Even if you justify it for “practicality,” you’re still upholding Zionism. Here’s why: 🧵

That must be swatted off like a pesky porch fly.
Exclusive 🚨
The Mayor announced plans for a new city agency to regulate the delivery industry
But delivery workers fear that the agency could be another way for the city to further criminalize them

Anarchists redecorated a Bank of America & a Chase Private Client (which caters to the rich) this week in Brooklyn in solidarity with movements to #FreePalestine & #StopCopCity. They also chained the doors, stuffed locks with putty, & glued card readers. [pics via a comrade]

The way 311s get handled: They go to the specific agency for a response. The liaison for NYPD to 311 can see the control number (C-xx) and all the customer info. There is record of who touched that complaint at every step. They know who did that shit. #FTP #RecordThePolice

So did the cop beat up a Black woman or nah???.
Two security staff at a Midtown migrant facility got arrested after a melee that started after Tim Pearson, a top advisor of Mayor Eric Adams, demanded entry but refused to ID himself, according to accounts.

This is my response to the many media requests as to what my aim would be as President in regard to the catastrophe in the Middle East: "I would stop the killing of innocent people - be they Palestinians or Israelis - by calling for an end to the vicious U.S.-supported Israeli occupation. This violent resistance to oppression is the desperate language of an occupied people. And as Martin Luther King Jr. reminds us, only a genuine peace with justice can stop the barbarism of war and domination. In this sense, the U.S. government, the Israeli government, and the occupied Hamas forces have blood on their hands. We must fight for the masses of Palestinians and Israelis to live with dignity and security! As I have said for the past fifty years, a precious Palestinian child has the same value as a precious Israeli child!" #TruthJusticeLove

It’s a shame that us Black people have to yell and be belligerent in order for our voices to be heard. @ABC is using Black Lives as ratings and to get paid they guaranteed me that I would be asking the President direct questions about what’s going on. I was lied too.

30 years overdue for NYCHA to be removed as HUDs public housing authority for the five boroughs. Hand it over to tenants.
Many NYCHA tenants are late on rent because of delayed payments from the state's Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP), created for pandemic-related assistance. Tenants have not received a single dollar in ERAP compensation since the program's launch. buff.ly/3vg3LGw

Thread: As press continues to amplify NYPD lies about bail reform know this: The NYPD *orchestrated an attack* on 100s of protestors in June 2020 in the Bronx. Used the curfew to trap, assault & arrest. Mass human rights atrocity. NYPD called it “restraint.hrw.org/news/2020/09/30/us-n…

The City imploded itself by instituting a vaccine mandate that protected no one and pushed veteran City staff to retire, vest out, or worse, be fired. Adams has yet to inform on those numbers. ⬇️
Shadow salary freezes, empty desks, and the whispered-of “Dean Memo” published at last. @HellGateNY talked with a former analyst at the Office of Management and Budget to try to better understand why City agencies are being hollowed out: hellgatenyc.com/a-former-omb…

Adams trying to appeal to elitist white people to sympathize with poor, working class Africans is hilarious. Neither, give a shit about Black people.

Shout out to @swipeitforward for changing the culture of behavior. If you can offer a swipe, do it, mind your business and fuck the police. #endbrokenwindows #swipeitforward #fuckyofare
We asked subway riders if they felt like “suckers” when they see people jumping turnstiles or entering through the emergency exit gates.
Most said it didn’t bother them.

Do not let these DNC tentacle orgs/personalities lure you into labor after #Roe decision. No race-reductionist white commie orgs either. Both bloodsuckers.
