He has been tortured, abused, and starved.
All for refusing to leave his patients during a genocide.

The U.S. wants Latin America to follow the same path Washington has pushed on Europe: higher military spending, closer alignment with U.S. strategic interests, and a new Cold War against China.

But Latin America’s greatest threats are not a lack of weapons or larger military… pic.twitter.com/Ir9qWR4c5K

The U.S. is blocking 7,000 shipping containers bought directly by Cuba.
— CODEPINK (@codepink) August 5, 2026
They are preventing food, medicine, equipment for water and electricity from getting to Cuba.
This is collective punishment.
This is genocidal. pic.twitter.com/79cIJSNIHI
@codepinkalert The Pentagon is asking the troops for ideas for the war on Iran. That’s how the war is going for the country that claimed total “victory” only a few months go. So which is it?

@codepinkalert The State Department has released a 100-page report, Cuba: The Capital of 21st Century Communism, reviving the worst traditions of the Cold War and McCarthyism. The report attempts to blame Cuba for problems created by decades of U.S. intervention and sanctions while smearing journalists, scholars, activists, and solidarity organizations that refuse to support Washington’s policy of economic warfare. So we took the report to the State Department and put it exactly where it belongs: in the trash.

@codepinkalert Today we’re going office to office in the Senate to demand that Congress remove Section 1217 from the NDAA. Section 1217 would further integrate the U.S. and Israeli militaries, bringing the United States even deeper into Israel’s wars and military operations. We’re delivering a simple message to every senator: reject Section 1217, reject another blank check for war, and stop spending more than a trillion dollars on the Pentagon while people across the United States struggle to afford housing, health care, education, and basic necessities. We’ll keep knocking on doors until Congress hears us. Call your senators and tell them: no blank check for war.
