Recent state-level elections in India have further consolidated the power of the ruling Hindu nationalist BJP led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “The general public does not think the elections are free and fair in India,” says Arfa Arfa Khanum Sherwani, an Indian journalist.

“Dr. King said that militarism overseas leads to the corrosion of a society and violence at home,” says @rokhanna.bsky.social. “That does not in any way justify the assassination attempt, but what it does suggest is that we have a culture that has embraced violence inconsistent with our ideals.”

"It's harrowing to see the immiseration of the entire population." Independent journalist Ed Augustin reports from Havana and describes the "unfolding humanitarian crisis" gripping Cuba due to the intensified U.S. blockade.

"They're not upholding the law." Activists are boycotting Citizens Bank in protest of its financing of private prison companies GEO Group and CoreCivic, which own and operate ICE jails across the country, including New Jersey's Delaney Hall and Texas's Dilley Center.

The U.S. resettled just over 6,000 refugees between October and April. All except three were from South Africa. President Trump has repeated debunked claims about "white genocide" and is now planning to resettle an additional 10,000 white South Africans as refugees.

Artificial intelligence is "incredibly unpopular technology" that is essentially being forced on people, says writer @astra.bsky.social. New data centers are now facing stiff resistance, providing "local chokepoints where people can come together and push back on the billionaire Big Tech agenda."

Political scientist Robert Pape says Iran's control over the Strait of Hormuz could help the country become a fourth center of global power.

Despite the U.S.' claims that it has fully blocked the Iranian oil trade since Monday, @lalehkhalili.bsky.social says over a dozen ships have sailed through the Strait of Hormuz — a drop in the bucket compared to before the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, when the strait handled over 100 crossings daily.

"We were hearing, every day, the screams of other Palestinians who were being tortured inside this investigation center." Global Sumud Flotilla activist Saif Abukeshek describes the ten days he spent in Israeli detention after he was violently arrested at sea.

Países Bajos ha confirmado un nuevo caso positivo de hantavirus. Se trata de un miembro de la tripulación del crucero que fue repatriado desde Tenerife y que permanece desde entonces en cuarentena.

Vilifying immigrants has been a pillar of Trump’s political platform since the very beginning. So it’s refreshing to see another foreign leader absolutely school him. Prime Minister Martin puts it beautifully: If you want your economy to grow (as Ireland’s has), you HAVE to invest in people.

Cypress Park is ready to vote Independent on June 2! I spoke with a young man who wanted to vote and said he couldn’t because of his felony conviction. In California, anyone not serving time for a felony in prison can vote. He was so excited to hear that that he registered on the spot at the door.

Trump is so obsessed with himself that he’s blind to the needs of the American people. Whether it’s the Trump-Kennedy Center, the Trump passport, or the Trump $250 bill, stop the nonsense.

Where does Trump think his would-be assassins get their guns from?
