#Trump criticised #ABC and #NBC for not airing his speech live, claiming they were part of a plot to protect the #radicalleft. He threatened to revoke their #broadcastlicence|s, despite the networks offering live streaming and CBS News providing context and fact-checking. The FCC is investigating ABC and NBC’s parent companies for diversity, equity, and inclusion practises, a move criticised as an attempt to bully broadcasters. https://deadline.com/2026/07/trump-threatens-abc-nbc-licenses-election-speech-1236988065/?eicker.news #tech #media #news

I often listen to Donald Trump and his friends speak of "radical leftists". Who are these people? Am I one of them? I am a proud socialist. I don't get what is radical about my views. For example, why is it radical to think that the rich have too big a share or that innocent people shouldn't be bombed?

Når @klassekampen på lederplass omfavner Anne Appelbaums forestilling om det "illiberale", ment som et forsøk på å slå venstreradikale i hardtkorn med fascister, og i sine anmeldelser Montesquieus maktfordelingsprinsipp, er vi da vitne til den endelige demonteringen av demokratisk sosialisme på norsk venstreside?
Spør for en venn.

«The ICE crackdown isn’t just about immigration; it’s about gathering intelligence in support of Trump’s war on cartels — as well as on Antifa, on the radical left, and those who are “anti-American,” and anyone else they consider terrorists. And since the administration has been so quick to label everyone, including Renee Good, terrorists, it’s no wonder they think they’re at war.»

The only faction to ever mount an efficient resistance to the Nazis in Germany were the radical left.
You think about that long and hard.

2.Dh5 Festival 2026
BAK/Moira/ACU, Utrecht, zaterdag 28 februari om 09:30 CET
Alles wat het vieren waard is, is bevochten, en elke bevrijding is ooit gewonnen.
We leven in dystopische tijden. Extreemrechts is aangemoedigd en gaat de straat op. Queers en migranten worden steeds meer gemarginaliseerd en bedreigd. Liberale politieke partijen houden zich op oneerlijke wijze bezig met antifascistische retoriek, louter om een verkiezing nipt te winnen. We weten dat dit niet zal leiden tot een duurzaam alternatief; het is aan ons om dat op te bouwen, en we willen dat samen met jullie doen. Jullie zijn uitgenodigd als onze mede-samenzweerders, als onze kameraden, voor de komende editie van 2.Dh5, met als thema “Building the Collective(s) – Tools for an Antifascist Future” (Het collectief (de collectieven) opbouwen – Instrumenten voor een antifascistische toekomst).
Het 2.Dh5 Festival voor wereldveranderaars is een plek om grassroots-campagnes, tactieken en methoden te bespreken die ons dichter bij ons ideaal van een samenleving gebaseerd op vrijheid en solidariteit brengen. We doen dit door analyses te maken van de huidige en historische context, door te kijken naar echte alternatieven en door strategieën te (her)ontdekken.
We brengen verschillende groepen, campagnes en individuen samen die actief zijn in strijd rond feminisme, queer, antiracisme, antifascisme, dekolonialisme, antimilitarisme, internationale solidariteit, klimaat/ecologie, arbeid, migratie/geen grenzen, internetvrijheid/privacy, recht op de stad/gentrificatie en alle raakvlakken daartussen. We willen van elkaar leren, onze strijd versterken en werken aan een betere wereld.
Kom dus langs, neem een vriend of twee mee naar het festival van dit jaar op 28 februari en 1 maart op drie verschillende locaties in Utrecht: ACU, BAK, Moira
Het verleden hebben we geërfd, de toekomst bouwen we samen! No Pasarán!

Why why why why why does a film like this not get a hybrid release, meaning a parallel release in theaters and online?
Theater-only releases are one method with which the normalisation of the pandemic was done.
This is an ableist practice.
Many still do not feel comfortable to visit indoor settings because of the ongoing pandemic.
This is how the so called radical left abandons us.
I am fuming.

Hmm.
An overweight white guy "with a history of mental illness" managed to get his hands on an #AR15 and 27 rounds of ammunition, and apparently intended to open fire inside #Atlanta International Airport.
He wasn't #black, #gay, #trans, a #DragQueen or an #Illegal.
Unlikely a #Democrat or #Liberal.
And his name was "Billy Joe".He was caught before he could commit his crime b/c his family called the police who issued a #BOLO.
At this time, there is no known motive.

#WarFromWithin pledge taken from Prez #Drumpf amidst unhinged rant at hundreds of #Pentagon's top brass who were forced to sit listening in dead silence lasterday as he allowed US Govt to be forced into shutdown:
“You know, the #Democrats run most of the cities that are in bad shape. We have many cities in great shape too, by the way. I want you to know that. But it seems that the ones that are run by the #RadicalLeft Democrats, what they’ve done to #SanFrancisco, #Chicago, #NewYork, #LosAngeles, they’re very unsafe places and we’re going to straighten them out one by one,” he said. “And this is going to be a major part for some of the people in this room. That’s a war too. It’s a war from within.”

In #America one side of the #political spectrum commits vastly more incidents of #DomesticTerrorism ... and #Trump doesn't want you to know that, because it disproves his fantasy of some kind of dangerous #RadicalLeft when there is no such thing in the #USA.

This is close to what I envisioned as an illustration of who is doing politically motivated killings.

Nguyễn Thị Bình is a granddaughter of the Nationalist leader Phan Chu Trinh. She grew up in a land that had been under French rule since 1858. The country’s resources were plundered, & the people exploited as cheap labour & reduced to grinding poverty. So determined were the French to maintain their colonial hold at any cost, they collaborated in power-sharing with Japanese #fascist #occupiers who brought horror & starvation from 1940-1945.
Despite this, led by the #VietMinh Front, people of Vietnam triumphed in the #AugustRevolution of 1945 & the Democratic Republic of Viet Nam (DRV) was declared on September 2nd. Democratic elections took place in January 1946 but French troops, with the open support of the US & Britain, attacked the new Viet Minh administration in the south of the country & the #WarOfResistance against #France began.
Binh studied French at Lycée Sisowath in Cambodia & worked as a teacher during the #French #colonisation of Vietnam. She joined #VietnamCommunistParty in 1948. Upon joining, she immediately began work as a #grassroots #AntiColonial organiser. From 1945-1951, she took part in intellectual protest movements against French #colonists. She was arrested & jailed between 1951-1953 in #Saigon by the French #colonial authority in Vietnam. She was repeatedly interrogated under torture & sentenced to death but was reprieved & released in very poor health in 1954.
Upon release from prison, Binh went north to work in #Hanoi for the National #WomensUnion. Her job took her to many localities where she witnessed first-hand the impact of #colonialism & the French War on ordinary people & especially women & children.
1954 was a year of victory for the Vietnamese army. The defeated French were forced to sign the #GenevaAccords recognising the independence, sovereignty & unity of Vietnam. The country was temporarily split in two at the 17th parallel, with the French moving to the south from which they would withdraw, while the Viet Minh went to the north. A general election for the government of a united country was to follow within 2 years.
But it never happened. The #USA came centre stage to ensure that the Accords were never implemented. Driven by strategic interests in the region, it made sure that Vietnam stayed divided – preventing an election that would have swept Ho Chi Minh to power with 80% support, while bankrolling & controlling the reactionary #regime of Diem-Nhu south of the 17th parallel. This regime violently suppressed all opposition, executing of thousands of Viet Minh supporters & condemning hundreds of thousands to concentration camps and prisons.
In response, the NLF (for liberation of South Vietnam & unification) was formed in 1960. Nguyen Thi Chau Sa was assigned to the Foreign Affairs Section of its Re-unification Committee & given the name Nguyen Thi Binh (Peace). From 1962 onwards, her high-profile diplomatic work, took her across the world. She represented the aspirations of the people of Vietnam in every country & forum she visited, while the world’s strongest #imperialist power made all-out war on her small country.
During the #VietnamWar, she became a member of the #Vietcong Central Committee and a vice-chairperson of the South Vietnamese #WomensLiberation Association. In 1969 she was appointed foreign minister of the Provisional #Revolutionary Government of the Republic of South Vietnam. A fluent French speaker, Bình played a major role in the #ParisPeaceAccords - an agreement that was supposed to end the war & restore peace in Vietnam.
She was expected to be replaced by a male Vietcong representative after preliminary talks, but became one of the group's most visible international public figures. During this time, she was famous for representing Vietnamese women with her elegant & gracious style, and was referred to by the media as "Madame Bình". She was also referred to as the "Viet Cong Queen" by Western media.
After the war, she was appointed Minister of Education of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam from 1982-1986; the first female minister ever in the history of Vietnam. Binh was a member of the Central Committee of Vietnam's Communist Party from 1987-1992. She was the Deputy Chair of the Party's Central Foreign Affairs Commission & Chair of the National Assembly's Foreign Affairs Committee. The National Assembly elected her twice to position of Vice President of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam for the terms 1992–1997 & 1997–2002.
Bình has authored several op-eds, including a one on the state newspaper Nhân Dân in which she voiced concerns that the current personnel policy of the Communist Party of Vietnam have allowed some "incompetent and opportunistic" individuals to enter the party's apparatus. She also criticized the Party's focus on increasing membership at the expense of "quality."
From March 2009-2014, she served as a member of the support committee of #RussellTribunal on #Palestine.
Madame Bình became a source of inspiration & namesake for Madame Binh Graphics Collective, a #RadicalLeft all-women poster, printmaking, & street art collective based in NYC from 1970s-1980s.
Many Americans in the #AntiWar movement were proud to wear T-shirts printed with the portrait of "Madame Binh". By then, she had become a symbol for female soldiers of the legitimacy of Vietnam's efforts.Madame Bình has been awarded many prestigious awards & honours, including the Order of Ho Chi Minh & Resistance Order (First Class). In 2021, President of Vietnam Nguyễn Xuân Phúc awarded her the 75-year Party Membership Commemorative Medal.
To commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam, the Government of Vietnam commissioned the official portraits for 12 former foreign ministers from 1945-2020. Nguyễn Thị Bình was included among them as the only South Vietnamese foreign minister & the only woman.Ref: Nguyen Thi Binh". Northeastern Dictionary of Women's Biography (3rd ed.).

CW: Suggestion for how authoritarians could own the libs
Imagine if Musk personally (engineers just complicate things, and Elon's a genius!) designed and built a deep-sea #submarine, then took #Trump, #Putin, #Netanyahu, #Thiel, #Vance, and whatever #Koch brother isn't dead down to the bottom of the Atlantic for a meeting of the minds?
It would be totally historic, a first for a US Presidential candidate!
Man, as a member of the #RadicalLeft, I'd be so owned that I'd have to deport *myself*! 🤫
