Excellent.
Yellow line art drawings of Hungarians jubilantly waving their flags are superimposed on a blue-hued background image of a protest. The black and white banner of Nonviolence News is in the bottom left.
From #Hungary's ousting of Orban to the #GazaFlotilla setting sail, we've got a world of Nonviolence News for you. (And a lot of things that will make you cheer, btw.)

Looking to Victory and Beyond.
This week in Nonviolence News.

Yes, but we can remove a president for dementia, whereas we can't remove a sitting president for being a a mean, self-centered, incoherent fool who says stupid and ignorant things.
“Nonviolent movements succeed by strategically pressuring the pillars of support for an injustice to withhold or withdraw things like information, cooperation, funding, labor and more.”

Oh yes! A plot where Paddington is imprisoned in the Bronx Zoo and has to regain his freedom sounds amazing. #Paddington4 #PaddingtonEscapeFromNYC
The effective federal corporate income tax rate:
1950: 50%
1990: 25%
2020: 13%
Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate.
That is how we will pay for it.
How are movements around the world using strategic nonviolence to confront authoritarianism and defend democracy?

A green line art drawing of Pope Leo is superimposed on a red-hued background of Iranian women demonstrating near a power plant in a line. One demonstrator holds a sign that says in English: 'Global Resistance against global oppression of America.' The black and white Nonviolence News banner is in the bottom part of the image.
From Iranians' human chains around power plants to Pope Leo's Holy Week messages on peace and nonviolence, it's been quite a week in Nonviolence News.

By that logic, the UK should be uninhabitable due to roundabout tornadoes.
Hungarians are voting to get rid of their authoritarian president tomorrow. I send them solidarity. (Also, Vance and Trump have been stumping for Orban. It's backfiring and sinking Orban's polling numbers.)
I'm very, very impressed.
On a positive note, he's still thinking about leaving office. That's an improvement on previous statements.
Love this.
It’s always great to see malicious compliance especially from government officials opposing human rights violations
Nice to know that what I stand on stands for what I stand for. Public lands belong to all of us. Stop the looting by the Trump administration. No privatization.
There should be campaign contribution caps. Every person can only donate as much as the poorest person in the US. So, $5 or $20 to a candidate of your choice in any particular race. That's it.
Along with 1 person, 1 vote, this would go a long way to end oligarchy (rule of the rich for the rich).
Good work, people.
And Vance's visit didn't do Orban any favors. Maybe he should visit again. 😉 www.newsweek.com/viktor-orban...
Poliviere might have a few things to say about the value of an endorsement from Trump.
Pope Leo XIV, this week, on the threat to destroy Iran.
This is the moment to act. Contact your political representatives — call, write, show up — and tell them: not in our name.

Undermine his support. Where can you help?
Thanks!
Just because a President announces he’s agreed to a two week ceasefire moments before he threatened to commit war crimes, does not mean he is suddenly fit to serve. #25thAmendment
If there were ever a time to invoke the 25th amendment it would be now. Donald Trump has threatened Iran with genocide. This has to end!
