[Earlier in October or September:] Harris' 'nothing will fundamentally change' moment?
[To a Republican audience before October 18th Harris said something about representing the next generation of the Democratic Party and that she will make her own policies -- but what are her proposed policies that differ from Biden's? I might be forgetting a line, but it seemed like she was saying different things to different audiences. On her website: kamalaharris.com/issues/ ]
A Stein-Ware 2024 campaign email sent out October 13th in the evening:
Kamala is a Dick Cheney Democrat
[ ],
As you know, last week Stein/Ware made history by being the first Green campaign to inspire the DNC and their handpicked candidate, Kamala Harris to release an attack ad against Jill. You probably know that they’re whining about Jill allegedly getting help from Republicans. But for all their lies and fear-mongering, it’s Kamala who can’t stop bragging about her 200+ Republican endorsements, including one of the most diabolical warmongers of the 21st century, Dick Cheney.
On a recent appearance on The View, Kamala was asked what she would have done differently than Joe Biden. Her initial response was that she couldn’t think of a single thing she’d have changed; certainly the fates of hundreds of thousands of innocent men, women and children being slaughtered by U.S. bombs in Gaza for over a year didn’t cross her mind. In fact she makes clear that she played a hands-on role in “most of the decisions that had impact.” But later she stated that there’s one thing she does intend to do differently – she’ll appoint a Republican to her cabinet!
If her embrace of the right-wing Republican Party wasn’t obvious enough for voters to grasp, she doubled down on it on Friday when she posted on X of her intention to “create a bipartisan council of advisors to give feedback on policy and inform (her) administration.” Because, she claims: “Our democracy needs a healthy two-party system.”
Our democracy isn’t healthy, and neither is the two-party system. A healthy democracy would offer robust choices for the people. Instead the anti-Democratic Party has fought us tooth and nail at every turn – from lawfare to overturn ballot access successes, to withholding our matching funds during a critical moment in our ballot access efforts, to siccing their attack dogs on Jill and Butch, and now sinking millions into a slanderous ad to bully people out of exercising their democratic right to vote for who they want. According to Kamala Harris herself, the biggest difference between her and Joe Biden is that she’s promising to govern even further to the right than he has!
[Donate button]
They can lie about Jill and Butch aiding the Republicans, but there’s a reason they never talk about our policies compared to the dirty duopoly candidates. The Green platform for people, planet, and peace exposes just how similar the Democrats and Republicans really are. Jill and Butch will cut off all aid and weapons to Israel on day one until they end the genocide and the apartheid. They will fight for Medicare for All, a real Green New Deal, a $25 minimum wage, and housing as a human right. Stein/Ware are the only real opposition to both sides of the corporate duopoly that, if Kamala has her way, will ultimately morph into just one corrupt party to rule over us.
Thank you for all you do to power up this movement. Together we can turn the White House into a Green House.
In solidarity and gratitude,
Team Stein/Ware 2024
An NC Green Party email sent out October 13th in the afternoon:

Demonstrate to Appreciate and Defend the
Alliance of Sahel States!
The Black Alliance for Peace's U.S. Out of Africa Network is calling on everyone who supports self-determination in Africa to turn out on Thursday October 24th, at noon, to rally outside the embassies of Mali, Niger and Burkina Faso (all within 3 DC blocks) in a show of support and appreciation to those countries for expelling AFRICOM from their territories, and for their roles in forming the Confederation of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES). We are demonstrating also to affirm that we will not allow any of these countries to suffer the fate of Libya in 2011 at the hands of NATO led by the U.S.
The demonstration will begin by assembling at noon outside the Embassy of Mali at 2130 R Street NW, DC where we will hold a 20 minute rally. Then march one block to the Embassy of Niger at 2204 R Street NW, DC for another short rally. Then proceed to end at the Embassy of Burkina Faso at 2340 Massachusetts Ave NW, Washington, DC where we will conclude. In an historical expression of appreciation, each embassy will be presented with a formal letter.
This is a pivotal time for the struggle against imperialism in Africa. The emergence of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) represents an historic breakthrough for Pan-Africanism that the U.S. and NATO are eager to eliminate.
Date: Thursday, October 24, 2024
Time: 12:00 pm ET
Location: 2130 R Street NW, DC

[American civilian pilot Eugene Burton Ely carried out the first takeoff from a ship, the USS Birmingham, November 14, 1910. He also carried out the first landing on a ship, the USS Pennsylvania, January 18, 1911. Ely wanted to join the US Navy, but it didn't have an air corps at the time and then he was killed in a crash October 19, 1911 in Macon, Georgia, just prior to his 25th birthday. This paved the way for naval aviation and aircraft carriers, which had a role in WWI but were more important in WWII. It has been argued that aircraft carriers are much less decisive today, for example China probably has the capability to sink US carriers at a distance, though China is also building aircraft carriers. Aircraft have also been launched from other ship types, such as battleships, including the USS North Carolina, now on display in Wilmington, and even submarines during WWII.]

[The German air force bombed the city of Coventry, England, UK multiple times during WWII, but the largest and most damaging air raid was the night of November 14 - 15th in 1940. 515 Luftwaffe bombers, using both explosive and incendiary bombs, virtually destroyed the downtown area and its medieval buildings, destroyed thousands of homes, and damaged 2/3rds of the city's buildings, as well as killing about 568 people and wounding many more. Some have suggested that the UK knew the attack was coming but did not give a warning so that the German military would not find out that its encryption had been broken. Coventry had military value because of its industries, but it also might have been targeted for its cultural value, as revenge for the bombing of Munich a few days earlier. The British used the attack as a pretext to start indiscriminately bombing or firebombing German cities, and later the US Air Force developed these techniques further, culminating in attacks such as the firebombing of Tokyo in March 1945 and the devastation of an entire city with a single nuclear bomb.]

November 24, 1983 (Thanksgiving Day) seven people entered Griffiss Air Force Base in Rome, New York and proceeded to hammer and put blood on a B-52 bomber modified to carry cruise missiles and on some B-52 engines. They left a statement condemning Griffiss and the US government for nuclear war preparation and condemned the violation of constitutional rights and punishment of acts of conscience under what they called the state religion of "nuclearism." No one came to arrest them for hours, so they searched for the guards themselves. This was the first Federal trial of Plowshares activists. A justification defense and expert testimony were barred. The jury found them innocent of sabotage but convicted them of conspiracy and destruction of government property, with prison sentences of two to three years and an appeal was denied. This account and the others in this post come from Swords Into Plowshares: Nonviolent Direct Action for Disarmament, edited by Arthur J Laffin and Anne Montgomery, and published in 1987.

Washington, D.C. | www.adc.org | October 13, 2024 - A short while ago Israeli occupation forces launched multiple air attacks, dropping bombs on and around the Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir al-Baha. The bombings have resulted in an ongoing massacre, as graphic images and pictures show Palestinians being burned alive. Many of the victims are patients at the hospital, and all are displaced Palestinians seeking safety. A few hours prior to this massacre, Israel bombed the Al-Mufti school which was sheltering displaced Palestinians. The school bombing has killed at least 19 people so far, including a baby.
As the genocide and massacres continue, Israel’s unrestrained and calculated brutality against Palestinians and as the besiegement of northern Gaza starts its 10th day of starvation and mass killing, the Israeli regime and its enablers have reached new levels of depravity. Civilians, hospitals, schools, and vital infrastructure are being systematically obliterated, in direct contravention of international laws meant to protect human life. The world is witnessing a humanitarian catastrophe that the Israeli government is perpetrating with clear impunity.
The United States is directly responsible for the unfolding massacre at the Al-Aqsa Hospital, and for all the lives lost during this genocide. By continuing to provide unlimited tactical support, vast military aid to Israel and political and diplomatic cover, the U.S. government is not only enabling, but also coordinating and helping execute these atrocities. The Biden-Harris administration’s refusal to intervene decisively to halt Israel’s genocide in Gaza has exposed a willingness to ignore justice, human rights, and the value of human life itself. This reckless disregard for all Palestinian lives has only fueled further violence and emboldened Israel to continue its genocidal march into Lebanon - where thousands have been killed, many more injured, and millions displaced.
A majority of the country and world collectively demands the U.S. government take immediate and definitive action to halt Israel’s genocide, end its support for this brutal occupation and dismantle the apartheid system. Gaza, the West Bank and all of Palestine is in an existential struggle. It is time for the U.S. to recognize its role in this ongoing tragedy and to use its influence to end the bloodshed and hold Israel accountable.
We will continue to demand an immediate halt to this genocide, and an immediate arms embargo of U.S. aid to Israel that enables Israel's aggression. The world has united in unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian and Lebanese people. We demand accountability, justice, and an end to the this carnage once and for all.
Take a moment now and send a message to your elected official demanding an immediate end to the genocide, and an arms embargo. Your activism is working, we are seeing members of Congress take a principled position after hearing from you. We need to keep pushing, click the link and take action .

[Michael Albert and Co., many from academia, say vote for Harris, it's fine, we are going in eyes wide open, Green 'David Cobbism:' portside.org/2024-10-16/seriously-stein-sawant-suicide But others say that the Democrats 'must' win both the Electoral College and the popular vote, so no third party voting even in the "safe" red and blue states, where a Trump or Harris victory is a foregone conclusion. The Democrats, forever. Around October 18th Harris proclaimed that the stakes are even higher than in 2016 or 2020! Every single election is the most important in our life times, even in the entire history of the country, so no voting for a third parties!
