The Security Council just adopted a resolution that pretends to be humanitarian but actually entrenches the Israeli occupation, with Trump set to “oversee” a foreign mandate. Palestinians deserve self-determination, not another colonial project. pic.twitter.com/yGEg3z0dhs

@codepinkalert Mohammed bin Salman is visiting Washington as Trump pushes a defense pact with Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile Cuba and Venezuela face crushing sanctions in the name of “democracy.” So why does an absolute monarchy that tortures dissidents get weapons, deals, and White House photo-ops? We should be freeing political prisoners, not arming monarchies.

@codepinkalert Rep. Randy Fine used to scream that there was “no genocide,” “no starvation,” “no problem.” But when we asked him about Palestinians freezing in tents? Fine wasn’t Fine enough to answer. Did an AIPAC mouse catch his tongue?

@codepinkalert We went to Congress and asked a simple question over and over: “Do you support U.S.-sponsored regime change in Venezuela?” And Congress? Dodging. Evading. Changing the subject. One member even yelled about Hamas instead of answering. Because they know exactly what U.S. regime change looks like: Chaos. Death. Destruction. Iraq. Libya. Afghanistan. Chile. Guatemala. The list goes on. The public doesn’t want another war. Congress doesn’t want to admit what they’re signing up for. So we’ll keep asking the question they’re afraid to answer.
