- Replying to @C_Resistancewe're hearing that this protest is causing crew members on board to have doubts about whether they should continue! here's a post from someone on the ship
- Replying to @C_ResistanceBecause of protestors relentless determination, they've retied the lines and redocked the ship!! #CeasfireNOW #EndIsraeliOccupation #FreePalestine
00:00 - HAPPENING NOW: The same US military ship taking weapons to Israel that was in Oakland is now being protested by hundreds at Seattle/Tacoma port. Because of these protests, a worker ON THE SHIP is now wanting OUT, refusing to participate in genocide. Our protests are moving people
00:00 - Replying to @C_ResistanceIt took cops detaining 3 people & violently breaking through lines of steadfast protestors there since dawn multiple times. The genocide ship left, but we delayed it for 9 hours, exposed it & raised the alarm to communities in PNW who are already organizing for when it arrives
- Replying to @C_ResistancePolice are violently trying to break through a peaceful line of protestors @democracynow
00:00 - Many reforms & strategies to fight policing are circulating right now, some are AMAZING like #DefundPolice; others, like #8cantwait, want to improve policing's war on us. When in doubt, ask our chart questions, inspired by @prisonculture. The goal is abolition. We fight to win.
- Replying to @C_Resistance and @democracynowSome protestors are sitting in while others have locked themselves to the ship. @KTVU @sfchronicle @ABC7
- Want to make this very clear: *Because* Biden is fully supporting the most fascist right wing gov in Israel's short history, he is ceding ground to fascist right wing forces in the US. The blame is on Biden's admin & them alone, yet we will all suffer the consequences come 2024.Democrats have a nasty habit of listening to voters of color only a few weeks every 4 years. But if Dems want Biden to win in 2024, they’d better start listening to the anger voters of color feel over Biden’s all-out embrace of Israel’s war. bit.ly/491Sv3f

00:00 - Obama: You're losing people by saying "defund the police." Abolitionists: We've been losing people because of police. Like literally lives being lost.
