The hypocrisy of Trump on Protests in Iran vs protests of his inauguration

Submitted by Luke on Mon, 01/01/2018 - 20:00

As 2017 faded into 2018, Donald Trump tweeted messages of support for protesters in Iran, where protests over price increases have escalated into street fighting and broader antigovernment demands. The scenes from Iran being played on US corporate news TV look a bit like footage from the protests of Donald Trump's own Inauguration. Of course, Trump is tweeting support for one group of protesters while trying to have 188 people sent to prison for up to 65 years for protesting him.

DC March for Jeruselem condemns Trump's plans to move US Embassy

Submitted by Luke on Sat, 12/16/2017 - 19:44

On the 16th of December, what may have been the largest march for Palestine in years in DC began at the Ellipse and ended at the US Capitol. The rallies and march condemned both Trump for announcing plans to move the US Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and Congress for submitting the bill treating Jerusalem as the Capitol of Israel to the White House every year since 1996. Trump was the first President to sign this dangerous, warmongering bill.
