📚 1 week until our State & Revolution discussion! Can working people use the capitalist state for liberation, or must we build new forms of power? This 1917 text speaks directly to today's organizing debates. Oct 29, 6-7:30pm, Holgate Library

We tabled at the No Kings parade to connect with our community. "From the masses, to the masses" means being where people are, listening to their struggles, and organizing together for systemic change. We got newsletter signups and made real connections.
Working-class power FTW!

Israeli Communist MPs Odeh & Cassif were dragged from parliament for holding "Recognize Palestine" signs during Trump's speech 10/14. When anti-war voices are silenced, war profiteers win. Portland stands with all who risk everything for peace https://lnk.bio/s/45be7

A solid letter from the editor. Our only note is to stop saying "authoritarian", it's a word with no meaning. Use "fascist" instead. That word is more specific. Trump and the Trump regime are fascist.

We joined coalition partners to expose the Oregon Air Show as military propaganda & predatory recruitment disguised as family fun. We're told there's "no money" for healthcare, housing, or living wages while billions flow to weapons manufacturers.

Portland Police just launched a drone surveillance program WITHOUT City approval. PPB partnered with Gresham PD to station drones on East Precinct's roof, avoiding the democratic oversight that Portland voters demanded. What will be their next surveillance tool? #PortlandCopwatch

This morning the Trump made true on his threats toward Portland and declared he is going to "provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland. … I am authorizing Full Force, if necessary." These are direct attacks on the people of Portland and completely false. 🧵1

✊ AFT's Target boycott shows organized labor's power Target caved to Trump's anti-DEI agenda, abandoning communities that built their success. Corporate "values" last only as long as they're profitable. Workers organizing collectively gets results. #LaborSolidarity #WorkerPower

🌍 Senators Van Hollen & Merkley just concluded Israel is carrying out ethnic cleansing in Gaza, funded by the U.S.

Trump uses Charlie Kirk killing to declare war on the left with zero evidence about motive.
Classic fascist move: exploit tragedy → justify repression → target democracy.

CPUSA survived McCarthyism through mass unity. We'll defeat this too. ✊

Trump DOJ targeting transgender gun rights using Minneapolis shooting as justification. Classic ruling class tactic: scapegoat marginalized communities for systemic problems while ignoring root causes - economic inequality, alienation under capitalism. We stand with our transgender comrades! ✊
