09:54am (CET) Anarchists from Ljubljana, Slovenia have send a #DisruptJ20 solidarity statement. In the statement they write: “There are countless Slovenians who will never have the option to benefit from all the plunder that vultures like Donald Trump have hoarded in the US—just as countless migrants in Slovenia who have escaped from Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and other places wrecked by US intervention are now at risk to be sent back to those warzones. Trump and his cronies aim to turn the entire world into a patchwork of gated communities arranged in concentric circles of privilege, in which the only people who are permitted to pass from one circle to the next are the ones who are willing to play a role keeping everyone else out.
We stand with everyone who desires a world without borders and oppression, against Donald Trump and the forces that produced him. Like our comrades in Slovenia, we have concluded that the only hope for humanity lies in solidarity and collective struggle against all forms of hierarchy and exclusion.” You can read the full statement at the crimethInk website.

CrimethInk: COMMUNIQUÉ FROM DOWNTOWN DC:
“In 1999, the black bloc that trashed downtown Seattle in protest against the world trade organization and capitalism was comprised of only a hundred people up against only 400 police officers. Today, after 17 years of militarization and the intensification of social conflict, a much larger black bloc wreaked havoc in the heart of the capitol of the most powerful empire in the history of the solar system, on the day when it is to hold its most important celebration of capitalism and the state.
This shows, first, that anarchists were always the opponents of globalization, not billionaire capitalists.
Second, it shows that it is possible to stand up to the state and to the rise of fascism. We have to become capable of rendering government impossible.
Currently, a small fraction of the anti-capitalist bloc is being detained at L and 12, chanting: “We love you! Stay strong! The revolution goes on!””
