AIPAC should be required to register as a foreign agent. That would effectively shut down the inordinate influence that @AIPAC has on behalf of the state of Israel. #JoinJill

This.
I’m seeing love for Kamala all over my personal FB feed from longtime Bernie colleagues. It’s turning my stomach
@SabbySabs2
I'm seeing some of the Pro-Palestinian allies get on board with Kamala Harris. If genocide is a red line, why would you support Kamala? She's takes AIPAC money & she's Pro Israel. I'm seeing progressives do the same. This is why the LEFT doesn't win. You don't hold the line.

Kamala Harris is a cop.
A former CA Attorney General and San Francisco DA with a controversial record of giving lip service to progressive reforms, while implementing conservative ideals in the justice system.
The Democrats have replaced Biden with a candidate who polls more poorly than Biden and who will continue to wage genocide on behalf of @AIPAC. They chose to elevate a party insider who is backed by billionaires, lobbyists, and Super PACs.
Since Biden endorsed @KamalaHarris, the anti-Democratic party raised $50 million. While big donors are lining up to support yet another pro-war, corporate candidate, we rely on grassroots donations from people like you: http://jillstein2024.com/donate

Netanyahu has no business in Congress. He belongs in the Hague.
We need to arrest that bastard.

Trump rejected the RFK outreach essentially saying he wasn’t going to do a quid pro quo
RFK supporters… how are you feeling about this today?
He’s just another corrupt player. Why would anyone think his administration would challenge the status quo?

Honestly they should rightfully do this just on principle
And he should stop the genocide on his way out. There will never be any redemption for what he has done but maybe there’s a shred of humanity somewhere

If Joe Biden does not have the cognitive ability to seek reelection, he does not have the cognitive ability to serve the remainder of his term. Tomorrow I will introduce a resolution calling on Kamala Harris to invoke the 25th amendment and assume the duties of acting President.

118TH CONGRESS 2nd Session
H. RES.
Calling on Vice President Kamala Harris to convene and mobilize the principal officers of the executive departments of the Cabinet to activate section 4 of the 25th Amendment to declare President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. incapable of executing the duties of his office and to immediately exercise powers as acting President.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Ms. MACE submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on
RESOLUTION
Calling on Vice President Kamala Harris to convene and mobilize the principal officers of the executive departments of the Cabinet to activate section 4 of the 25th Amendment to declare President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. incapable of executing the duties of his office and to immediately exercise powers as acting President.
Whereas, for years it has been clear to the American people that President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. was experiencing severe cognitive decline and was mentally unable of discharging the powers and duties of his office;
Whereas, on June 27, 2024, the performance of President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. during the televised presidential debate raised new urgency to concerns that President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. is mentally unable of discharging the powers and duties of his office;
p2: 
[image to text p2]
Whereas, following the presidential debate, comments and gaffes made by President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. compounded existing concerns regarding his cognitive ability to discharge the powers and duties of his office;
Whereas, in the weeks following the presidential debate, dozens of members of the House of Representatives and Senate from the President's own party called on President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. not to seek reelection to the office of President of the United States, citing concerns about his cognitive ability to discharge the powers and duties of his office;
Whereas, on July, 21, 2024, President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. announced that he would not seek reelection to the office of President of the United States, indicating he believed it was in the best interest of the country for him to stand down;
Whereas, if President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. does not have the cognitive ability to seek reelection to the office of President of the United States, then he does not have the ability to discharge the powers and duties of his office for the remaining six months of his term: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives calls upon Vice President Kamala Harris -
(1) to immediately use her powers under section 4 of the 25th Amendment to convene and mobilize the principal officers of the executive departments in the Cabinet to declare what is obvious to the Nation: That the President is unable to successfully discharge the duties and powers of his office; and
(2) to transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives notice that she will be immediately assuming the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Joe Biden has been removed from power by the same anti-democratic forces that rigged the field for him in 2020 & skipped the primary to anoint him in 2024.
Don't be fooled. The same @DNC elites that put him in power will replace him with another tool for Wall Street and the war machine.
We will continue to fight oligarchy, empire and genocide like our lives depend on it. Because in fact they do.

July 21, 2024
My Fellow Americans,
Over the past three and a half years, we have made great progress as a Nation.
Today, America has the strongest economy in the world. We've made historic investments in rebuilding our Nation, in lowering prescription drug costs for seniors, and in expanding affordable health care to a record number of Americans. We've provided critically needed care to a million veterans exposed to toxic substances. Passed the first gun safety law in 30 years. Appointed the first African American woman to the Supreme Court. And passed the most significant climate legislation in the history of the world. America has never been better positioned to lead than we are today.
I know none of this could have been done without you, the American people. Together, we overcame a once in a century pandemic and the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression. We've protected and preserved our Democracy. And we've revitalized and strengthened our alliances around the world.
It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President. And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as President for the remainder of my term.
I will speak to the Nation later this week in more detail about my decision.
For now, let me express my deepest gratitude to all those who have worked so hard to see me reelected. I want to thank Vice President Kamala Harris for being an extraordinary partner in all this work. And let me express my heartfelt appreciation to the American people for the faith and trust you have placed in me.
I believe today what I always have: that there is nothing America can't do - when we do it together. We just have to remember we are the United States of America.
Joe Biden [Signature]

Workers Strike Back Inaugural National Zoom Meeting
Zoom Link
Featured Speakers:
Jill Stein, Kshama Sawant, Nick Cruse
As the genocidal war on Gaza enters its tenth month, with shocking new revelations of brutality by Israeli forces, a majority of Americans now oppose the war, with just 36% supporting U.S. military aid to Israel. Major unions like UAW, SEIU, and NEA, along with countless smaller unions collectively representing millions of workers, have passed ceasefire resolutions, and students at nearly every major university have organized courageous protests against the war, facing suspension, expulsion, and police repression.
Yet as the US Presidential election draws closer, both Biden and Trump continue to give the war their unflagging support. With two warmongers being put forward by the two parties of the billionaire class, what is the next step for workers and students looking to end the war and occupation? And how can we build a strong enough antiwar movement to stop the flood of U.S. money fueling the Israeli war machine?
Join Left independent antiwar Presidential candidate Jill Stein, socialist and former Seattle City Councilmember Kshama Sawant, and Revolutionary Blackout Network founder Nick Cruse to discuss and vote on a strategy for the movement.
No Biden, No Trump!
How can we end the genocidal war on Gaza?
Speakers:
- Nick Cruse, Revolutionary Blackout Network founder

I honestly hope nobody is buying the laundry list of things Joe Biden says he’s going to get done in a second term
First, one of those things is not stopping genocide
Second, most of it is the progressive agenda that Democrats have never seriously fought for, in fact much of it stymied by the rotating villains in the party. It’s stuff Democrats could have done in Biden’s first term if they were serious
Dems are nothing but bait and switch
@CallForCongress
We can condemn political violence all we want, but as MLK said, “my own government is the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today”
Trump, Biden, and much of Congress has engaged in openly violent and hateful rhetoric and actions as a matter of course
We are shocked at incidents like today’s shooting. But are we surprised? Have we not created a powder keg of war, animosity and poverty, driven by the corruption of the ruling class that seeks to divide us and divert our attention while they steal from us both overtly and covertly
What happened today is to be condemned. But so is all of the violence perpetrated by the imperialists and the war machine. We cannot expect that the violent and hateful actions and rhetoric of our political leaders will not have consequences
Unfortunately, incidents like today will likely result in increasing the power of the authoritarian surveillance state and a diminished capacity to criticize our government

@DrJillStein
Why didn't Biden do any of this when he had a trifecta? Democrats always promise you progressive reforms to get your vote, then govern for the Wall Street bankers and war profiteers who fund them. It's an abusive relationship. Don't let them lie to you again.

Did you know that if the Green Party could get 5% of the popular vote that we could have THREE parties from then on?
That's why we keep voting Green in hopes of breaking the duopoly
"Third parties can't win!"
Winning isn't the point right now, we're just trying to get access

We got notification a few days ago that we qualified for matching funds
That message was immediately followed by another saying “but we’re not giving them to you”
It is unprecedented and unconscionable. We have been counting on this funding - $270,000, rightfully earned and now
@DrJillStein
The empire is pulling out all the stops, with their army of lawyers, infiltrators - and now delaying our @FEC matching funds!
The Dems are quaking in their boots because we are rising up. They think they can stop us, but they ain't seen nothing yet…
@DrJillStein
Every four years, we're regularly told we have to "vote blue no matter who" because of the Supreme Court. But voting for Democrats to fix the Supreme Court is betting on a sure loser. It's not happening. Democrats aren't saving SCOTUS - and they're not saving us from SCOTUS either.
While Republicans have been carefully strategizing a judicial takeover for decades, Democrats have been fumbling away SCOTUS seats and fast-tracking GOP judicial appointees. When it leaked that SCOTUS was planning to overturn Roe, the Democrats did nothing to codify this critical protection for women, just like they'd done nothing for the past 50 years in spite of their repeated promises. All they did was fundraise and tell people to vote blue harder.
When SCOTUS gutted the Voting Rights Act, the Democrats did nothing but fundraise and tell people to vote harder. Now that SCOTUS has gone full mask-off in support of tyranny, what are Biden and the Democrats doing about it? Fundraising and telling people to vote harder.
The Democrats have not only been useless while SCOTUS takes a sledgehammer to our democracy. They have been worse than useless, because they turn every terrible decision into a convenient excuse for not even trying to do the things they promised their voters.
Enough is enough. We're done playing along with this farce.
Voting for Biden to deal with this illegitimate, corrupt, rogue court is like calling Mr. Magoo to stop a fascist coup. We need to call it like it is: this court has sided with tyranny over democracy, and just like King George III in 1776, it's got to go.
But we won't win this fight by voting for the do-nothing Dems. We will win this fight by voting for a president who will lead the charge to impeach, replace, and expand this illegitimate, corrupt court - and create a court that serves the American people, not the billionaire donors that have manipulated the process to produce an extremist court now tearing down what remains of our democratic institutions.
