Hello /leftypol/, we noticed an under-appreciation for the theory that upholds our political ideologies: As such, we have decided to revive the reading sticky! This thread will be dedicated to the sharing, discussing, and general banter about various leftist thinkers, theories, and political outlooks.

But, other than that, we believe there are other important reads that must be addressed, especially, for beginners and those just now getting into leftism.

Don't forget to check out >>>/edu/ for more reading and discussion!

This thread will detail some of the changes made to the site in the past year, as well as our plans for the future.

New i2p Address
As requested by several users, and in accordance with our general ethos of encouraging online anonymity, leftychan now has an i2p address which can be found here:
http://leftychmxz3wczbd4add4atspbqevzrtwf2sjobm3waqosy2dbua.b32.i2p or http://leftychan.i2p/

Moderation Changes
* New spam filter - Thanks to the hard work of our dev and admin Zer0-, leftychan now has an effective countermeasure against the automatic bot spam that plagues alt-chans. Dubbed as the 'spam noticer', the implementation of this system has led to a dramatic fall in malicious advertisement threads being posted to the site.
* New mods & dev - In order to better cover european and asian timezones, two more mods have been voted onto the team. These are sindikat, who has previous moderation experience, and jon, who is also acting as a dev and has made many valuable contributions in this capacity.
* Removal of Zul - In line with the rule that if a mod is inactive for over 15 weeks their status as a mod is called into question, Zul was voted off the mod team.

Speculation that Lindsey Graham was actually killed in Ukraine

https://www.nakedcapitalism.com/2026/07/lindsey-graham-bites-the-dust.html

<Did Lindsey Die in Kyiv?

>Except Lindsey just happened to be in Kyiv on Saturday and he happened to tour a drone factory that was possibly struck by Russia that evening. I’ve read multiple reports and it’s unclear if the facility Graham toured was indeed hit by Russia. For example, here’s the International Business Times:

<SkyFall, a Ukrainian drone company whose facility was struck, confirmed that the US Republican senator visited the company’s production facilities on 11 July 2026, where he was briefed on the development and production of combat unmanned systems. During the visit, Graham was shown a range of systems, including heavy reconnaissance-strike Vampire drones (known on the front lines as ‘Baba Yaga’), Shrike first-person-view drones in multiple configurations, and P1-SUN interceptor drones designed to counter Shahed-type loitering munitions. He also said he had reached an agreement with the White House on a Russia sanctions bill.

>But:

<…Ukrainian authorities have not publicly identified the SkyFall facility visited by Graham as one of the sites hit in the Russian strike.

>So it’s not yet clear that the facility Lindsey toured was even hit by Russia. According to the Kyiv Post, “SkyFall is a Ukrainian technology-defense company that unites a large R&D center, scalable production lines, and a certified SkyFall Academy for training pilots, instructors, and technicians.”

>One theory being pushed by Russia’s friends is that Graham was killed during a Russian strike on another Ukrainian drone factory that he secretly visited, but Trump confirmed that he spoke to Graham the night before he passed after he already returned to the US. It’s implausible that he of all people, who’s known to be very emotional, would cover up the killing of his close friend by Putin. It’s even more implausible that the anti-Russian deep state would too and thus eschew a chance to further escalate against Russia.
I don't find this argument very convincing - that's not to say that I necessarily believe that he was killed by Russia in a bombing (he could also have snorted bad coke, been poisoned, been assassinated with a "heart attack gun" by someone else who acquired the technology, been killed by Ukrainian oligarchs, died of untreated AIDs, etc.), but I just don't buy the reasoning here.

Trump, even more than "being emotional" is a massive, massive liar, and his relationship with Lindsey Graham was clearly a marriage of convenience, I doubt that Trump had any sincere personal affection for him. I think that Trump would have no difficulty lying about it even if he was aware of a hit being carried out (which he wouldn't necessarily be), and, obviously, a US Senator being taken out would be liable to prey upon Donald Trump's personal insecurities, and he might not want to encourage the idea that doing such a thing is so easy. I also think that what Korybko terms the anti-Russian deep state probably feels similar such insecurities at this point - they worry more about being perceived as weak than they do about developing pretexts (when they want a pretext they just lie), and they're aware, on some level, that Lindsey Graham is broadly reviled by much of the American people and western public who are aware of who he is, and they might well be uncomfortable with throwing a credit for a death people in the west celebrate to Russia.

From AJ:
One ‍person is dead after an ICE officer on a large-scale ⁠immigration operation ​in Minneapolis shot and killed a woman who allegedly “weaponized” ⁠her vehicle.

The Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer shot the woman in her vehicle on Wednesday in a residential neighbourhood in Minneapolis, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement.

…

Mayor Jacob Frey alleged the officer “recklessly” shot her, adding immigration agents are “causing chaos in our city”.

“They’re ripping families apart. They’re sowing chaos on our streets and in this case quite literally killing people,” Frey said at a news conference.

“They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defence. Having seen the video myself, I wanna tell everybody directly, that is bulls**t,” the mayor said.

The shooting marks a dramatic escalation of the latest in a series of immigration enforcement operations in major American cities under the Trump administration.

There's a 0% chance that all the employers hiring illegal migrants to skirt labor law are GOP, and the DNC has done everything it can to accommodate ICE and its rampages. The only thing which has impeded it at all (and it's still totally inadequate) is public outrage, and the first thing the DNC did in response was offer sympathetic words while simultaneously threatening to send in the national guard against peaceful protesters. Don't fall for the framing.

ICE Agents Shoot Dead Another Unarmed Person In The Streets Of Biddeford, Maine

The ICE agents claimed that the 26-yr-old man had attempted to ram his car into them.

Right wingers immediately took to social media to point out the man’s identity is Colombian & allege illegal status, yet it has been confirmed that he was legally working in the U.S.

Protests have been sparked with calls to kick ICE out of Maine, following what has been broadly described as an unnecessary incident to begin with, creating a hostile environment & adding to a long list of other ICE shootings against unarmed civilians.

The footage released does not provide proof that the wounded man had put ICE officers in a life threatening situation.

US citizen guilty of violating sanctions on Iran
An American citizen has been found guilty of violating US sanctions on Iran by a federal jury in Boston.

Mahdi Mohammad Sadeghi was charged with conspiring to unlawfully export electronic components to Iran and was also accused by prosecutors of helping an Iranian business associate get around US export control laws two years ago.

The Massachusetts resident had worked at Analog Devices prior to his arrest in December 2024.

Prosecutors alleged the scheme involved the creation of a front company in Switzerland. Sadeghi was found guilty on three of the five charges.

Updates and current status since the start of the last thread:
(largely civilian) Palestinian death toll has now passed 72,700. Excess deaths have been estimated by The Lancet to plausibly be upwards of 186,000.

Italian workers' unions launched a massive general strike in October over the shipping of weapons through Italian ports which are being used in Israel's genocide, and launched another strike in November.

In early January 2025, Israel agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza and a prisoner exchange. Israel unilaterally broke the ceasefire. In October 2025, another ceasefire and prisoner exchange was agreed upon in Gaza, and Israel has proceeded to kill over 900 Palestinians in Gaza since agreeing. Israel has also refused to allow the agreed-upon amount of aid into Gaza.

Israel attacked Iran utilizing a large number of assets embedded in Iran, killing multiple scientists and high ranking Iranian military officials, as well as targeting schools, hospitals, oil assets, and a TV station. Around one thousand Iranians were killed in Israel's strikes on civilian targets like residential buildings. Iran retaliated with a series of waves of missile and drone attacks which hit multiple Israeli military targets including IDF HQ, Mossad HQ, as well as an Israeli oil field. After an Iranian strike on Unit 8200, the number of online Zionist apologists conspicuously reduced for a while. The Israeli government, embarrassed by the damage to Tel Aviv, heavily censored footage and reporting of Iranian strikes on Israel, resulting in the Israeli police arresting journalists and citizens for filming sites of impact, while rich Israelis fled by boat due to the closure of Ben-Gurion airport. Iran began a crackdown on Israeli terror cells, finding and closing multiple Mossad-linked covert drone factories, as well as reportedly arresting groups involved in sabotage, and multiple individuals reportedly linked to German & Indian spy agencies.

Renewed US/Israeli attacks on Iran led to the destruction of multiple US bases in west Asia and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

The US mercenary front called the GHF has reportedly disbanded.

Exclusive: Fergie Chambers facing US extradition over dubious ‘terrorism financing’ charges
The Grayzone has reviewed a sealed indictment for pro-Palestine donor Fergie Chambers, who was arrested in Spain on dubious money laundering charges concocted by the Trump DOJ. His partner accuses the US government of “political persecution.”

Fergie Chambers, a communist philanthropist and heir to the Cox family fortune, has been jailed in Ibiza, Spain, on the orders of the US Department of Justice. According to a sealed indictment seen by The Grayzone, Chambers now awaits extradition to Washington on dubious federal charges of “international money laundering… with the intent to provide material support to and resources to foreign terrorist organizations.” If deported to the US, he faces up to 30 years in prison.

On July 10, six Spanish police vehicles surrounded Chambers’ car while he drove through Ibiza with his family, before detaining him. Since his arrest, he has been denied bail and contact with the outside world. Chambers’ detention marks the first time an individual has faced extradition to the US from Spain for supporting the Palestinian cause.

An heir to the vast Cox family fortune, in 2023 he cut ties with his family and sold his stake in Cox Enterprises, receiving an estimated $250 million. Vowing to use this money to fund social activism and international solidarity work, Chambers has since donated over $1 million to humanitarian projects supporting those impacted by the Gaza genocide, and to support pro-Palestine activist groups and news outlets.

The sealed indictment offers no evidence that Chambers has donated any money to “foreign terrorist organizations.” It merely states “Chambers made numerous transfers of funds from banks in the US to banks in Tunisia,” where he relocated in late 2023.

It appears Chambers used those funds for seemingly legal purposes, including investing in local businesses and sponsoring the Club Africain football team, which in May became champion of the Tunisian Ligue Professionnelle. Chambers has bankrolled similar enterprises, along with political and social causes since the early 2000s, including paying the bail and legal fees of imprisoned left-wing activists.

ICC Bureau Changes Rules Midway to Make Removing Khan Easier, MEE Reveals
ICC bureau changes voting rules midway to lower threshold for Khan's removal. Judges found no misconduct but bureau overruled them. Vote set for July 24 in New York.
The executive body of the International Criminal Court has changed the voting process for the potential removal of Chief Prosecutor Karim Khan midway through the proceedings, lowering the threshold required and stripping member states of a separate vote on whether misconduct occurred at all, Middle East Eye revealed exclusively.

The Bureau of the Assembly of States Parties approved the change by majority at a meeting on Monday. Under the original two-stage procedure, member states would first vote on whether serious misconduct had occurred, with a second vote on removal triggered only if that threshold was met. Under the new process, member states will vote once on a single motion approving both the bureau's finding of serious misconduct and Khan's dismissal simultaneously.

Khan's lawyers at Carter-Ruck said they had not been notified of the change. They told MEE that the new arrangement departs from the bureau's own written procedure in two respects: it removes the Assembly's separate and prior determination of whether serious misconduct occurred at all, and it reduces the threshold for a finding of serious misconduct from a two-thirds majority to a bare absolute majority. They stated: "Altering the rules of a named individual's case partway through, to his disadvantage and without notice to him, raises the most serious questions of lawfulness and of basic fairness."

The 125-member Assembly of States Parties is due to vote on Khan's future at the United Nations headquarters in New York on July 24.

The bureau determined by a two-thirds majority last month that Khan had committed serious misconduct, despite a judicial panel of judges appointed by the bureau itself concluding unanimously that the evidence presented in the UN investigation "does not establish misconduct or breach of duty under the relevant framework." A majority of bureau members then voted to disregard the judges' panel report entirely.

The investigation centered on a complaint from a woman in Khan's office regarding unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature and abuse of authority. Khan has strenuously denied all allegations. The bureau's finding, seen by MEE, did not finPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

On March 9, 2025, US permanent resident and Columbia University graduate student was abducted without charge or trial and sent off to a shady Louisiana site on White House orders over his protests for Columbia to divest from Israel's war crimes.

From DropSite:

NEW YORK CITY—On Saturday night, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agents entered a student residential building at Columbia University in uptown New York and detained Mahmoud Khalil, one of the lead negotiators on behalf of pro-Palestine protesters at 2024’s Gaza solidarity encampment. In a sweeping attack on the First Amendment, the Trump administration said this week it would begin revoking visas of “Hamas sympathizers,” specifically citing Columbia University students. The detention followed a two-day targeted online campaign against Khalil by pro-Israel groups and individuals, including Columbia’s high-profile pro-Israel professor, Shai Davidai.

Khalil, an Algerian citizen of Palestinian origin and an American green-card holder, was detained by DHS officials around half past eight as he was entering the Columbia residential building he lives in. He was returning from an iftar, breaking the day-long fast observed by many Muslims during the month of Ramadan.

Khalil’s wife, who is eight months pregnant, was with him at the time. A statement by the pro-Palestine group Writers Against the War on Gaza (WAWOG) stated that he was “abducted and detained without the physical demonstration of a warrant or officially filed charges.”

Khalil was detained at a DHS facility in New Jersey, according to a database for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. But when his wife went to try and visit him she was informed he was not there. "He is not at the ICE facility in New Jersey. I can confirm he is not there,” Khalil’s attorney Amy Greer told Drop Site. "At this time, we have an idea [where he is] but we cannot confirm that 100%.”

According to WAWOG, the DHS agents told Khalil that the U.S. Department of State had revoked his student visa. The group said this was “despite the fact that he has a green card, not a visa, and is a lawful permanent resident.”

In response to a request for comment from Drop Site, the DHS first stated, “You need to reach out to the White House.”

U.S. Begins Denying Green Cards over Anti-Israel Views

The Department of Homeland Security has given guidance to immigration officers instructing them to deny green cards to immigrants who burn the U.S. flag, criticize the state of Israel or participate in pro-Palestinian campus protests, The New York Times reports.

According to internal DHS training documents seen by the newspaper, officers are discouraged from granting permanent residency to people with a history of "endorsing, promoting or supporting anti-American views" or "antisemitic terrorism, ideologies or groups." One example of questionable speech provided to officers is social media post that declares, "Stop Israeli Terror in Palestine" and shows the Israeli flag crossed out.

Despite frequent attempts to criminalize flag burning, the Supreme Court has ruled that it is political speech protected by the First Amendment.

Mahmoud Khalil calls out ongoing threats against him
Months after his release from US immigration detention over his involvement in peaceful campus protests against the Gaza genocide, Columbia University graduate Mahmoud Khalil has said he is still facing threats.

In a post on X, Khalil responded to New York City councilwoman Vickie Paladino, a Republican, saying that he should be loaded into a military plane, handed a parachute and pushed “out the back over Syria”.

“A New York City councilwoman is publicly fantasizing about killing me, and somehow I’m the threat,” Khalil said.

A Palestinian who was born a refugee in Syria, Khalil was a graduate student at Columbia’s School of International and Public Affairs in New York when he was detained by US immigration agents on March 8, 2025.

The Trump administration said they intended to deport Khalil despite his having legal residence in the US and having broken no laws.

His case, which the Trump administration continues to contest, attracted international attention before a Judge ruled his detention unconstitutional in June.

Mahmoud Khalil calls for US deportation to be halted in light of new evidence
The lawyers for Mahmoud Khalil, a former Columbia University student targeted for deportation by the US government over his pro-Palestine advocacy, have called on an immigration appeals court to reopen and terminate his case.

The latest legal appeal points to new evidence, some of which was documented in media reports, that Khalil’s lawyers said new evidence “suggests that the Trump Administration secretly engineered the outcome of his immigration case to make an example of him”.

The move comes just over a month after the Board of Immigration Appeals issued a final order of removal for Khalil, who was first detained by immigration enforcement agents in March 2025, one of several student activists targeted for their participation in pro-Palestine and anti-Gaza war campus protests that swept the US the previous year.

Mahmoud Khalil:
Through my lawsuit against the gov, we're getting internal documents about my arrest. Here's one: a State Department-commissioned 'social media review', conducted after the arrest. Their big finding? I talk about 'share' a lot and have an above average number of followers. This is what they spent your taxpayer money on.

Immigration Judge Rules a Man’s Pro-Palestine Views Mean Nothing He Says Can Be Believed

Yaakub Vijandre, a 38-year-old Filipino-American photojournalist and DACA recipient, has been held in ICE detention for nine months over pro-Palestine social media posts and posts opposing U.S. torture of prisoners, according to his attorney Eric Lee. He came to the U.S. in 2001 at age 14 and has no criminal record, but was arrested outside his Texas home in October 2025, a day after he filmed a city council meeting on the ICE detention of a local Palestinian community leader.

In denying him relief today, an immigration judge ruled that his politics rendered his testimony unreliable, writing that “the respondent’s worldview is informed by extremist ideology to such an extent that he no longer has the ability to provide reliable or credible factual statements,” and that he lacks a “meaningful grasp of truth about terrorism and terrorists.”

Iraq has been demanding the US leave for years - Biden said "no," Trump said "no" until now. Speculation is that the US is fleeing its bases in the region because of an imminent US/"Israeli" attack on Iran.

Per Hindustan Times: The U.S. military has fully withdrawn from Iraq’s Ain Al-Asad airbase, handing control to Iraqi forces as Washington accelerates its regional drawdown. Baghdad frames the move as restored sovereignty, while critics see it as another sign of America scaling back its Middle East footprint amid rising security risks and shifting power balances.

Iraqi armed groups denounce PM’s plan to visit Washington, meet Trump
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq (IRI) has issued a statement opposing plans by the Iraqi government to send a delegation to the US.

In a statement distributed by Sabereen News, the umbrella organisation comprised of Iran-backed armed groups condemned the delegation’s visit “at a time when the American-Zionist war machine continues to perpetrate savage massacres and shed the blood of thousands of believers and the innocent in Iraq, Iran, Lebanon, Yemen, and Palestine”.

It also called for “liberating the Iraqi economy from American hegemony” and said that the “presence of American forces on Iraqi soil constitutes an occupation”.

Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi is expected to visit Washington, DC, to meet Trump and sign several oil and gas agreements.

Today's episode attached - Galloway covers Venezuela, Yemeni retaliations hitting "Israeli" airports, speculates that Iran may respond to "Israeli" threats (in light of previous attacks) with a strike, and more!

TRUCE SHREDDED | Day 130 | Iran responds | Trump at Nato | Khamenei funeral | Farage election farce
