The Democratic Party was incredibly effective when it attacked and destroyed Bernie Sanders but it can’t seem to figure out basic election campaign strategy (again). That’s because its top priority is to defeat the left, not win the presidency. https://twitter.com/freedomrideblog/status/1306390827728470016

This is actually the attitude of virtually the entire US media establishment towards a dissident journalist being tortured and persecuted by the US-UK security state https://twitter.com/fiorella_im/status/1306398043990716416

@WaywardWinifred As vice president under Obama, Biden helped oversee one of the largest campaigns of extrajudicial executions ever orchestrated.
There were *10 times more* strikes under Obama-Biden presidency than under George W. Bush.
Stop erasing Biden's war crimes

.@MaxBlumenthal discusses how the attack on Julian Assange is part of the US government's war on free speech.
They are making "an example of him, in medieval
fashion," as a threat to all of us: "You could be next."

Each day Julian is woken at 5am, handcuffed, put in holding cells, stripped naked and x-rayed. He's transported 1.5h each way in what feels like a vertical coffin in a claustrophobic van. He's in a glass box at the back of court from where he can't consult his lawyers properly. https://twitter.com/StellaMoris1/status/1296367084700565506

When the UK regime rants about human rights, don't simply think of their war crimes in Iraq, their complicity in the genocide in Yemen, their supports for murderous terrorists in Syria, their theft of Venezuelan wealth or the destruction of Libya
Remember what they did to Julian https://twitter.com/StellaMoris1/status/1306205472521891840

Bolivia's civilian neoliberal forces are so weak that they're still getting crushed, even now that they control the state, the media and after jailing & killing many of their opponents.
They're too weak to rig the elections, only full military intervention can save them. https://twitter.com/KawsachunNews/status/1306296679004549121

The Washington Post casually acknowledges, in passing, that US-backed Venezuelan opposition factions have mulled launching terrorist attacks to "sabotage" key infrastructure. WP says it could "severely damage Maduro" -- maybe also Venezuela's population? https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/the_americas/venezuela-maduro-american-mercenary-captured/2020/09/14/1a92bfdc-f5de-11ea-89e3-4b9efa36dc64_story.html

@seize_the_means Biden would not play "El pueblo unido jamás será vencido" in a million years. In fact he has devoted his entire political career to killing, torturing, and disappearing people who sing that song in Latin America
While it's funny Biden played a song with lyrics like "Quiero desnudarte a besos despacito / Hasta provocar tus gritos / Y que olvides tu apellido" what isn't funny is his years of terrorizing Latin America.
On Latin America, Trump and Biden are identical

After decades of terrorizing Latin America with imperialist war crimes and coups, deporting millions of immigrants, and then ignoring Latinos in his campaign, Biden played "Despacito" on his phone to try to seem hip.
Someone should probably tell him what the lyrics are about 😂

@SecPompeo The US empire overthrew Brazil's democracy and installed a fascist puppet regime.
Colombia has for decades been terrorized by a far-right US client regime that trafficks drugs and uses fascist death squads to massacre leftists.
Neither is a "democracy"

Hahaha "demonstrate US support for the region's democracies"
There is no "journalism" here; it is pure US regime propaganda
Brazil has a fascist regime and Colombia has had 50 massacres of human rights activists in 2020
