Cuba has an antiviral medication, Interferon Alfa 2B, which is effective against the covid-19 virus.
The US blockade on Cuba limits their ability to produce the drug, and prevents US doctors from importing it to use here.
End the blockade immediately!
#NoMasBloqueo
You can't self-quarantine at home if you're homeless.
There are millions of empty houses kept vacant by speculative investors around the country.
Take them over and use them to house everyone, immediately!
When socialist Cuba houses the homeless, feeds the hungry, cures cancer, and educates the entire population, that's "authoritarian", but when the capitalist US allows millions to suffer or die simply because they're poor, that's "freedom"? Freedom for who?
‼️🇵🇸 Karina joins a huge crowd in Bay Ridge demanding a permanent ceasefire in Gaza!
We won’t turn away. We won’t stop mobilizing and shutting it down until the siege on Gaza ends.
The Supreme Court is an inherently anti-democratic institution; the last line of defense for the ruling class.
The fact that a single lifetime appointment made by Trump threatens gay marriage and abortion rights is proof that we need a whole new system.
We join the world in standing with the people of Palestine in their just and courageous struggle against occupation.
End all U.S. aid to Israel! Without U.S. support this racist, apartheid regime could not stand. Free Palestine!
‼️BREAKING: The UN General Assembly just voted overwhelmingly for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Results were:
FOR: 153
AGAINST: 10 (incl.🇺🇸+🇮🇱)
This just shows how isolated the US and Israel are—the world stands with Gaza! Let's stay in the streets for Palestine!
@POTUS
✅ Broke a railworkers strike
✅ Allowed a minimum wage increase to fail in Congress
✅ Kicked families off SNAP benefits
✅Allows corporate-manufactured inflation to run rampant
Biden is a capitalist precisely BECAUSE he manages the economy at the expense of working families.
NO business as usual! On this National Day of Mourning we reaffirm our commitment to the liberation of Palestine. 🇵🇸🇵🇸
Karina Garcia, VP of the Party for Socialism and Liberation’s 2024 Presidential campaign, joins other activists in showing solidarity for Palestine at the NYC
✊ There is no pause in our movement. Shut it down until Palestine is free.
Claudia De la Cruz, 2024 presidential candidate of the Party for Socialism and Liberation joined thousands in shutting down Black Friday in New York City.
Zionist donors are using their money to force Columbia University to silence its students who are standing up to the genocide against the Palestinian people.
Our message to these students is to keep going. You’re not alone, and you’re on the right side of history.
I'm a socialist running for mayor of NYC in November. I challenge Eric Adams to a debate. No guns, no bullet proof vests.
This race is a fight for housing for all, full employment for all, defunding the NYPD and funding what works in our communities
New York City can't afford four more years of Mayors beholden to police unions and real estate developers.
I'm Cathy Rojas. I'm an NYC native, public school teacher, activist, and a socialist.
I’m running for mayor to fight for a system that puts people over profit. Join me!
A temporary pause is not enough! We need to keep fighting and demanding:
❗️a permanent ceasefire
❗️end the siege on Gaza
❗️lift the blockade on Gaza
❗️end all U.S. aid to Israel
❗️free all Palestinian political prisoners
❗️end the Israeli occupation of Palestine
@CNBC
Meanwhile over 95,000 people have died because we "can't afford" mass testing, PPE, and medical equipment.
The need for socialism has never been more clear!

That’s why we demand to stop funding Israel, stop funding genocide!
While the votes continue to be counted, we are proud to say that we already have gained more votes than any openly socialist NYC mayoral candidate since 1953!

Trump has been voted out. Good riddance. But the fight is not over.
Remember, Joe Biden promised the billionaires that under his administration, "nothing would fundamentally change."
PSL STATEMENT on the defeat of Donald Trump
More than 70 million people voted to oust Donald Trump. This was not a vote for Joe Biden, a truly uninspiring candidate who became the nominee when the Democratic Party ruling class establishment united to stop Bernie Sanders in March
We are in the midst of an uprising against racism. The people are demanding an end to police terror and mass incarceration.
Meanwhile my opponent Joe Biden, author of the crime bill that fuels mass incarceration, chooses "top cop" Kamala Harris as his VP.
Stay in the streets.
OUR CAMPAIGN PLATFORM:
- End all U.S. aid to Israel
- Lock up politicians guilty of genocide, starting with Joe Biden
- Close all +800 US military bases

What Aaron Bushnell did was an ultimate sacrifice, an act of martyrdom by a U.S. service member who was outraged by the U.S. support for Israel's war on Gaza, which has been ablaze for months.
All active duty soldiers must refuse these wars of domination and genocide!
🔴People have come all over the country to DC to show Biden that WE are the red line!
🇵🇸The last 8 months revealed the terroristic nature of US empire and Israel. We'll fight until we achieve total liberation of Palestine—and for everyone in the Global South!
#ThePeoplesRedLine
Every election the Democrats silence opposition by warning about the rise of fascism with the election of Trump or other right-wing figures.
But we see with the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, even the so-called “lesser evil” like Joe Biden can be capable of funding and prolonging
“The only reason Israel has agreed to a four day pause is because they’re losing!”
Claudia De la Cruz joins thousands on the People’s Day for Palestine in New York. The pause won’t pause the movement for Palestinian liberation!

Today, Claudia stopped by Columbia to show her support to student organizers!
🇵🇸Students are currently on day 3 of occupation. They’ve faced fierce backlash from both police and campus administration for exercising
So let us get this straight: the US has the absolute right to support Israel, but no one (including Yemen) has the right to support Palestine?
Full military support to a state conducting a genocide is legitimate but limited military actions (which killed no one) in support of a
It was the Bolshevik Revolution that proved the workers and oppressed peoples could rule. This is why the struggle for socialism is so urgent today! Viva Nov. 7, 1917! Viva Lenin!
The Russian revolution on this day in 1917 marked the beginning of a new period in human history.
It was the first time that the oppressed were able to come to power – to take power and hold onto power. It truly had a transforming effect on the world.
#OnThisDay
Why do we stand with Palestine? It’s simple.
We stand with the Palestinian struggle because it is a struggle for humanity. It is a struggle against death and destruction. It is a struggle against racism and apartheid.
We need our resources to pay for reparations to the
Our campaign doesn’t revolve around Election Day. It revolves around months of outreach like this.
Only a socialist program can meet the scale of the crisis.

We do not fight the rise of the far-right with the center. We fight it with a unified, working class movement of the left.
We do not defeat capitalism with liberalism. We defeat it with socialism.
Today I join many millions of people around the world in celebrating the 94th birthday of Fidel Castro - lifelong revolutionary and historic leader of the Cuban Revolution, and one of my greatest personal heroes. Viva Fidel!
Who loves Fidel Castro? The many millions who see Cuba as proof that socialism works, and who have benefited from Cuba's internationalist solidarity. He's an inspiration to revolutionaries world wide
Also - he's my personal hero. Here's us during one of my visits to Cuba
In socialist Vietnam, rapid tests are accessible to everyone. Vietnam has had 24 covid-19 deaths and 962 total cases.
In the capitalist U.S., they're available only to the wealthy. 172,961 have died and there have been over 5.5 million cases.
Which system do you prefer?
While most of the U.S. waits 7 to 14 days for coronavirus test results, at some parties hosted by the wealthy in the Hamptons, expensive rapid tests that take less than 30 minutes are the price of admission
Tim Walz: a fake progressive sent to rescue the sinking Democratic Party.
After Biden's meltdown, the Democrats are hoping to reenergize people with a supposedly "progressive" pick for Kamala Harris' running mate.
⬇️But what's Walz's real record?
End all U.S. aid to apartheid Israel.
The +$1 trillion that the U.S. taxpayers spend every year on war should instead be spent to address the dire crises facing working people.
We need a world order based on cooperation and peace, not domination and war.

Claudia was at the front line when police brutally attacked the march protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress earlier today
In what kind of so-called democracy do police pepper spray peaceful protesters exercising their free speech rights in defense of a visiting
In the context of occupation and the war imposed on the Palestinian people by the Israeli colonial project and U.S. imperialists, narratives and language have been historically used as instruments of war.
Claudia explains how the U.S and Israel are losing the information war,
In 1970, 200,000 USPS workers (including my dad!) went on strike - the largest wildcat strike in US history.
Nixon swore he would break it, sent the nat'l guard to deliver mail. But the strikers stayed strong and won!
Inspiration for essential workers in this crisis
#SaveUSPS
The people around the world did not pause for seven days, and we will not pause or stop our solidarity now. As the genocidal attacks of the colonial state of Israel resume, we stand firmly with the Palestinian people and demand:
❗️permanent ceasefire
❗️stop to all U.S aid to
🇵🇸"There is only one solution! Intifada, revolution!"
Yesterday, Claudia and Karina joined 300,000 others in Washington DC for the BIGGEST pro-Palestine march in US history to send a powerful message to the Biden administration:
Lift the siege of Gaza!
End ALL US aid to Israel!
Standing tall with Palestine on this morning shutting down Wall Street and major transit arteries around NYC!
No business as usual!

In all the talk about votes, let's remember the undocumented, who can't vote, have no rights despite their vital role in the working class. I met Sergio, farmworker without work for weeks, prohibited from unemployment benefits, walking on Hwy 99 picking up cans for hours.
Millions around the globe are rejoicing at the fact that the world is finally rid of one of the worst monsters to ever live — war criminal Henry Kissinger.
From Vietnam to Indonesia to Chile — Kissinger was responsible for some of the most infamous atrocities of US empire.
🇵🇸A month ago, Biden said the invasion of Rafah was a red line. Now, his red line is nowhere to be seen.
🔴Join us in Washington, D.C. this Saturday, June 8 where we'll surround the White House and let Biden know that WE are the red line! Don't forget to wear red!

Thank you to everyone who voted! The votes are still being counted but the Claudia-Karina “Vote Socialist” campaign has a clear and irreversible lead. We are also excited to announce that a significant
The Biden administration is threatening to unleash a regional war, with this retaliation against Yemen’s solidarity with the Palestinians. Anti-war activists are out tonight at the White House to protest this major escalation.
WE SAY: HANDS OFF YEMEN!
We are horrified to learn of the racist shooting of Palestinians Hisham Awartani, Tahseen Ali, and Kenan Abdulhamid in Burlington, Vermont.
We stand with their families in calling for an immediate hate crime investigation and against the racist acts of the shooter.
The Democratic Party wants us to believe that Tim Walz is some incredible, progressive leader — and *this time*, they are really serious about making the changes we need.

Millions of people are drowning in debt, living paycheck to paycheck. Yet what is the top priority of the Biden administration?
To get another $24 billion to Ukraine, after they've already spent $100 billion to further war.
VP Candidate Karina Garcia on US aid to Ukraine:
And we’re socialists.
All income and assets over $10 million must be subject to a 100% tax.
But we don't just want to tax the rich, we want them out of power completely!
Wealth should not go to endless war, but back into our communities as schools, hospitals, and jobs.
Disgusted by what you saw on the debate tonight? You’re not alone. Join our movement to fight for a new system!
While we were unfairly excluded from this sham of a debate, the Vote Socialist campaign is gaining momentum all across the country. Claudia went to the CNN
Call this Israeli attack inside a West Bank hospital what it is: terrorism!
The United States must immediately end all aid to the fascist and terrorist state of Israel.
On day one we would cut off all support that Tel Aviv receives!
🚨BREAKING — Joe Biden has dropped out of the 2024 Presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris.
But let’s be clear — no matter who the Democrats run, they’ll represent the same ruling class political agenda that has left the working class in the dust. And Harris is a full
🇵🇸The movement for Palestinian liberation is rapidly growing by the day. We unequivocally stand with the Palestinian resistance and their struggle against Israeli colonization, apartheid, and land theft!
From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!

Meanwhile, millions of people are facing severe food insecurity and grocery store shelves are empty.
This is the logic of capitalism on full display. We need a socialist system that distributes food and other necessities on the basis of human need, not for profit!
We need your help to be part of a major third party debate! The top six will qualify for Free and Equal’s debate featuring candidates running outside the two-party duopoly
Vote here by Feb. 1, and spread the word!
“The days of Israel’s racist, apartheid Jim Crow system are numbered, because we’ve seen the unbreakable resistance of the Palestinian people.”
We will always stand with Palestine. We will always fight for Palestine.
Today is the International day of solidarity with Palestine and we honor the over 20,000 martyrs taken from us by U.S. financed Israeli bombs over the last 50 days.
We honor the martyrs and stand with the liberation of the Palestinian people.
Insulin must be FREE.

💸It’s not you, it’s capitalism.
Corporate media blames TikTok users for creating “bad vibes” on the economy. But no matter how much they gaslight us, the economy IS worse.
It’s time for a socialist program to benefit working people and get rid of the “bad vibes” for good.
BREAKING: US Senate passes $95B aid package.
What does it aid?
❌Student borrowers in historic loan debt
❌Relief to communities in climate disaster zones
❌Working families amid difficult inflation
✅Bloodshed and occupation globally
The capitalist class only aids war.
CAMPAIGN STATEMENT:
“We stand with Palestine!” – Socialist presidential candidates unequivocally support the struggle against Israeli apartheid.
Claudia De la Cruz and Karina Garcia were both proud to join demonstrations over the weekend in solidarity with Palestine. 🧵
The WHO has declared covid-19 a pandemic.

As the US and Israel are carrying out a genocide against the people of Gaza, western capitalists are already planning on how to line their pockets.
This war is about colonization, land theft, and resource extraction. Free Palestine!

Bolivia's courts have annulled the arrest warrant against Evo Morales. Judge Román Castro threw out the detention order for 'terrorism' that the regime issued after the coup.
Changing the face of the Democratic Party will not bring about a real transformation for working class people, nor will it defeat the far-right.

Biden is a capitalist precisely BECAUSE he manages the economy on the backs of working families.
17 million children have no hi-speed internet at home. And many do not have a computer, or even a home at all. All are crucial to distance learning.
These are crimes of capitalism, and in a pandemic they mean children are denied the fundamental right to education.
“This is a racist genocide that’s happening in Gaza with our taxpayer money.”

While Biden and Trump callously refer to migrants as “illegal,” our campaign believes that no human being can be illegal.
What is illegal are the U.S. wars and U.S.-imposed economic sanctions which drive migration in the first place.
