Seattle, WA – On October 2, Seattleites took to the streets in solidarity with the Global Sumud Flotilla, protesting the humanitarian aid fleet’s illegal interception by Israel the previous day. Nearly 100 activists packed into over 40 cars to form a motor caravan and cruised through some of the busiest streets in downtown Seattle during rush hour, disrupting traffic and unloading afterwards at a rally. The action was timed to coincide with other national and global efforts, like that of the Italian Unione Sindicale di Base (UDB), which enacted a general strike across Italy. The caravan, as well as the rally attended by nearly 600 people, ensured that Seattleites could not ignore the events surrounding the Global Sumud Flotilla despite the U.S.’s repressive media doing its best to keep Americans in the dark.

Washington, D.C. — On Friday, September 5, over 30 activists and community members assembled in Washington, D.C. 's Navy Yard neighborhood for a “mass cop watch” organized by the DC Against Trump Agenda (DCAT) coalition. This cop watch is just one of many actions that the coalition has organized in weeks since President Trump declared that he would be federalizing DC’s Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) and deploying the National Guard to the city. “This is an occupation,” said Kristen Bonner, organizer for the DC Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (DCAARPR). “We are seeing heavily armed soldiers on our streets, our buses, and our trains. Sometimes as many as a dozen on a single block.”

Black Lives Matter DC: No Safety Without Self-Determination

Washington, D.C.- Trump’s alleged “takeover” of D.C. is a con. It is not about public safety; it is political theater. It is designed to make people think something new is happening when Black and other marginalized D.C. residents know we already live in the most heavily policed city in the United States. Our city, with a population over 700,000, is patrolled by 32 independent police agencies, eight university departments, and five local agencies that have cooperative agreements with the DC Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) under the Police Coordination Act (PCA). These agencies share the same immunity and powers as MPD when patrolling D.C.

Free DC Models Effective Resistance To Trump’s Takeover

August 14, 2025 Daniel Hunter, Waging Nonviolence. Organize! DC, Martial Law, National Guard, Trump Administration, Washington

On Monday, President Donald Trump ordered 800 National Guard troops to the nation’s capital — a move Princeton University professor Khalil Gibran Muhammad described as “a slide towards fascism” and “textbook” authoritarianism. Claiming emergency powers from the D.C. Home Rule Act, Trump also announced a takeover of the Metropolitan Police. As is typical with authoritarians, the pretense for these orders was an invented crime emergency. But pretense is just that. We should all remember Washington, D.C.’s most violent day in recent years — Jan. 6, 2021 — was sparked by Trump himself. What’s more, D.C.’s safety won’t come from militarization, but rather through decreasing unemployment, ending ICE’s kidnapping of neighbors, and restoring funding to Medicaid, SNAP and schools.

Iran And Its ‘Ring Of Fire’

July 8, 2025 Vanessa Beeley, Orinoco Tribune. Educate! Axis of Resistance, Iran, Middle East, Tel Aviv, US military bases, Washington

Resistance to the Imperialist project in the West Asia (Middle East) region has deep historical and cultural roots for the people of the region. It was never exclusive to any religion; it was linked to an Arab identity and civilisation. The modern-day dominance of an Islamic Resistance is a phenomenon that is relatively recent and should not be seen through a sectarian lens, as it remains inclusive of all sects and ideologies. Religion and culture have historically encouraged a path to justice, defence of territorial integrity, regional identity, and human dignity.

Seattle, WA – In the early morning hours of June 10, activists and community members gathered at the courtyard of the Henry M. Jackson Federal Building in downtown Seattle in solidarity with the rebellion in LA and against deportations. The federal building is the site of the area’s immigration court where ICE has been detaining and disappearing people before they can seek legal counsel or contact their loved ones. The rally was organized by the Pierce County Immigration Alliance, Students for a Democratic Society, Freedom Road Socialist Organization and 50501 Washington.

For Trump’s Birthday Military Parade, Veterans: ‘Military Off Our Streets’

June 14, 2025 Colonel (Ret) Ann Wright, Popular Resistance. Resist! DC, Donald Trump, US military, Veterans, Washington

Having served 29 years in the U.S. Army and Army Reserves and retiring as a Colonel, I am ashamed that the 250th birthday of the institution I was in for almost 3 decades has been politicized by President Donald Trump for his birthday celebration. The idea of a big military parade was quashed by military leadership in Trump’s first term. But Trump’s appointment of Pete Hegseth, his chief interviewer on FOX News and extremely unqualified person as Secretary of Defense, has insured there are no objections to Trump’s wild decisions on how to use the U.S. military as his personal plaything, his toy, to include now ordering a parade in his honor, no matter how the $3 billion Pentagon public relations team tries to portray it as a celebration of the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States Army.

In a legal first, a Washington state woman has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against some of the world’s largest fossil fuel companies, seeking to hold them accountable for the death of her mother during an unprecedented heatwave that scientists say would have been “virtually impossible” without climate change. Misti Leon filed the lawsuit in King County Superior Court against ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, BP, ConocoPhillips, Phillips 66, and BP subsidiary Olympic Pipeline Company. She alleges the companies are liable for the death of her mother, Juliana Leon, who died of hyperthermia after being exposed to extreme heat in June 2021.

Seattle Protesters Oppose Hate, Clash With Police

Seattle, WA – On Saturday, May 24, Seattle’s LGBTQ community and their allies protested an anti-queer, Christian evangelist rally at the Capitol Hill neighborhood’s Cal Anderson Park. They protested the rally that was called by the group Mayday USA, which aims to classify transgender people as mentally ill and to legally define life as starting at conception. Although the Seattle community outnumbered the reactionaries, the Seattle Police Department (SPD) wasted no time in acting as the reactionaries’ personal armed guard. In total, 16 protesters were arrested by the time the police were walked out of the block by protesters.

Washington Is Worried About Burkina Faso’s Young Revolutionary Leader

May 8, 2025 Alan MacLeod, MintPress News. Educate! Burkina Faso, Ibrahim Traore, Sovereignty, Washington

Burkina Faso’s Ibrahim Traoré is remaking his nation, and in the process, making enemies in the West. Since taking power in 2022, the young military leader has expelled French troops, ejected Western corporations, and aligned his country with Russia, Cuba, and Venezuela. Promoting pan-African unity and national self-reliance while surviving coup attempts, Traoré is positioning himself as a radical anti-imperialist and has drawn fire from Washington and Paris. MintPress News explores the project underway in Ouagadougou and the global forces trying to stop it.

Massive Protest For Palestine Rocks DC As Gaza Genocide Begins Anew

April 6, 2025 Jaisal Noor, The Real News Network. Resistance Report DC, Mass Action, Palestine, State Repression, Washington

I think what we’re hoping to achieve with protests like this is like the abolitionists years ago with the longterm campaigns of petitioning and other forms of pressuring the government, and their own forms of demonstrations and others is to help build a stronger moral conscious movement in this country in solidarity with the Palestinian people and to end this genocide. And we know this country is so undemocratic, it’s so gerrymandered, it’s so difficult to get the voices of the people, even when they’re in the majority, represented inside of Congress.

Building Solidarity Around Survival: A Seattle Example

March 8, 2025 Patrick Mazza, Resilience. Organize! Affordable Housing, Housing, Seattle, Social Housing, Solidarity, Washington

We are in for a long hard time in the U.S. and the world as a whole. The divisions between people have grown too deep. The concentration of power in individuals and institutions that care little about the common good, pursuing their own interests at its expense, is too great. The buildup of problems either unaddressed or insufficiently addressed has mounted to an overwhelming extent. The ascendancy of Trump and Musk has intensified the situation, but the trends were going the wrong way for a long time before. It is enough to make people throw up their hands in despair, wondering what they can do, or retreating entirely into personal life.
