"Yes, he’s done quite a job so far and, in a way, it couldn’t be simpler to describe. Somehow, he’s managed to take the greatest looming threat to humanity and put it (excuse the all-too-appropriate image) on the back burner. I’m thinking, of course, about climate change.

Bullitt (1968 film with Steve McQueen as Lt. Frank Bullitt of the San Fran Police Dept.)

The car chase scene with Lt. Bullitt in a 1968 Ford Mustang chasing 2 hit men in a 1968 Dodge Charger showed the improved handling of a lighter weight vehicle in city driving. But it seemed ridiculous the way it caught back up to the Charger on the open road after the bad guys had caused the Mustang to slide out and stop.

Anonymous member WARNING: Witch Hunt in Pickens, SC An actual witch hunt is being organized by the Stillwater Christian Fellowship in Pickens, South Carolina. Thought we learned from Salem, but here we are. Members of this church group are infiltrating safe spaces for pagans and witches on Facebook, tracking local events, and showing up to harass attendees. So far, they have chased down and cornered people, screaming that they're going to hell. While no one has been physically harmed yet, they are actively quoting Exodus 22:18—"You are not to allow a witch to live"—as justification for their actions. Stay vigilant, protect your spaces, and look out for each other. Be safe out there, everyone.

Face au 14 juillet belliciste, antisocial et fascisant de Macron, notre 14 juillet 2025 sera pacifique, patriotique et antifasciste !


Déclaration du Pôle de Renaissance communiste en France

Le 14 juillet 1935, le grand défilé parisien du Front populaire impulsé par le PCF et par la CGTU sous les plis mêlés des drapeaux rouges et tricolores se concluait au stade Buffalo aux accents de la Marseillaise et de l’Internationale tour à tour entonnées par Jacques Duclos. Allait suivre la victoire du Front populaire aux élections de 36 avec à la clef, la dissolution des ligues fascistes, les grèves accompagnées des occupations d’usine, de grandes avancées sociales et surtout…. la classe ouvrière devenant pour la première fois l’avant-garde reconnue de la Nation à l’initiative du Parti communiste français.

Le 14 juillet 1945, une immense manifestation parisienne célébrait la victoire des peuples sur le nazisme à l’issue. Le rôle déterminant de l’Armée rouge dans la victoire remportée sur Hitler était alors universellement reconnu et, en France même, nul ne se fût risqué à minimiser l’importance de la Résistance communiste intérieure dans la libération de notre pays. Du reste, le « Parti des Fusillés » obtenait alors près de 30% des suffrages tandis que la CGT réunifiée présidée par Frachon comptait cinq millions d’adhérents… Aile marchante du gouvernement d’unité patriotique issu du CNR, les ministres communistes Thorez, Croizat, Billoux, Marcel Paul, Casanova (Duclos étant alors président de l’Assemblée nationale) allaient promptement mettre en place la Sécurité sociale, les retraites par répartition, la généralisation des conventions collectives, le Code du travail, les statuts du fonctionnaire, du mineur et de l’électricien-gazier. Ce volet social était d’ailleurs adossé aux nationalisations de Renault, de l’Énergie, de l’Aéronautique (SNECMA), des Charbonnages et des principales banques. Tout cela fut accompli en deux ans car dès 1947, les ministres communistes furent exclus du gouvernement sur l’ordre des États-Unis désireux d’engager mondialement la croisade antisoviétique qu’on allait bientôt surnommer « guerre froide ».

Eh bien, le 14 juillet 2025 dessiné par Macron se situera aux antipodes de ces deux 14 juillet dignes du grandiose 14 juillet 1789. Sous l’impulsion du pouvoir actuel, la France officielle est en effet devenue le fer de lance de la marche à la guerre continentale que projette l’UE-OTAN arrimée aux dirigeants maladivement anti-russes de Londres. En témoigne le très agressif pacte militaire conclu ce 10 juillet, sans la moindre consultation préalable des deux Parlements nationaux concernés, par MM. Macron et Starmer en vue de la coordination des forces nucléaires anglaise et française. Cette marche de plus en plus précipitée des forces euro-atlantiques vers le « conflit global de haute intensité » tourné contre la Russie, mais aussi contre la Chine populaire (ouvertement ciblée par la cheffe de la « diplomatie » européenne Kaja Kallas), vise à maintenir l’hégémonie planétaire chancelante de l’Axe euro-atlantique (flanqué du régime pronazi de Kiev et des dirigeants génocidaires d’Israël !) sur la « majorité mondiale » que représente notamment le mouvement planétaire des BRICS. Y compris si cette hégémonie devait être préservée au prix d’une troisième guerre mondiale possiblement exterminatrice pour notre pays, si ce n’est pour toute l’humanité, voire pour l’ensemble du vivant ?

Ajoutons que le prétendu « isolationnisme » de Donald Trump et son soi-disant « abandon » de Kiev relèvent en réalité d’une nouvelle division du travail entre les forces euro-atlantiques, Trump préparant avant tout une guerre d’agression contre la Chine sur fond de mainmise israélo-américaine sur le Proche-Orient alors que l’UE, à nouveau dominée par l’impérialisme allemand en plein réarmement, est chargée par Trump de mener la charge contre la Fédération de Russie.

En outre, la marche à la guerre impérialiste s’accompagne comme toujours d’une régression sociale massive que le gouvernement Bayrou-Retailleau est chargé de mener contre ce qui subsiste des conquêtes de la Libération et du produire en France industriel, halieutique et agricole.

Enfin, les processus de fascisation de l’UE, mais aussi de la Ve « République » en voie de dissolution dans l’État fédéral européen en gestation, s’accélèrent sur fond de montée des extrêmes droites et d’euro-criminalisation des mouvements de soutien à Gaza. Du reste, l’euro-banalisation des néonazis kiéviens s’accompagne de persécutions anticommunistes caractérisées (Tchéquie, Ukraine, Pologne…), tout cela dans l’absolu silence de la fausse gauche atlantiste.

Trump cuts to food banks are making providing disaster aid difficult


Near the beginning of Trump’s second term, the Department of Agriculture stopped the flow of some of the money that pays for deliveries of products like meats, eggs, and vegetables known as “bonus commodities” through The Emergency Food Assistance Program, or TEFAP, to charitable organizations like food banks. TEFAP is one of the primary ways that state and federal governments have ensured food reaches communities in need in the aftermath of climate-fueled disasters like a hurricane or heatwave.

In March, the USDA also moved to end future rounds of funding for the Local Food Purchase Assistance Cooperative Agreement Program and the Local Food for Schools Cooperative Agreement Program. These two programs, which are also designed to support emergency food providers such as food banks, were slated to distribute more than a billion dollars this fiscal year to states, tribes, and territories.
