No police were around as the black bloc traveled down the Shattuck Ave today in Berkeley, and a handful used hammers to smash the windows of the Berkeley US Marine Corps Recruiting office. After another was filmed throwing a torch into a dumpster, one of them called a few over to confront Ford Fischer of News2Share, demanding that he leave and go "at least 50 meters back." "Get the fuck back. Cops aren't here. They won't help you." Protesters went on to allegedly start three Dumpster fires, vandalized 20 cars and set one on fire.

When asked by News2share contributor and political commentator Jon-Christopher Bua about the role of Russia in the fight against ISIS, Press secretary Josh Earnest remarks that this is a mutual interest between them and the United States. Specifically, he remarks that there is significant evidence of Russians who have left Russia and could come back to commit acts of terror there. He uses the opportunity as well to observe that The United States and Russia still disagree over some issues such as Ukraine. However, he remarks that their mutual interest in stopping ISIS and their joint efforts at the international space station show the ability of the countries to work together when needed. Jon-Christopher Bua told News2share afterwards: "It has been reported that the Russians made an overture to the Iraqis that they would be supportive in defeating ISIL. Perhaps a good opportunity for President Obama to reach out to President Putin to join the Coalition in this effort. As the coalition grows internationally this might be a way to bridge the growing divide between the US, Europe and Russia- A win win for all. It is clear that both the US and Russia share this common interest. Josh Earnest did not rule out that possibility, and in fact noted that the US and Russia continue to have a good working relationship in regards to international security."

About 45 activists were arrested as the third "FTP" protest against the police marched throughout New York City Friday night. The protesters demand that public transportation be made free and that the NYPD itself be abolished. The protest began in Grand Central Terminal, where police threatened to arrest anyone wearing masks. As hundreds assembled, several dozen were wearing masks. Police periodically stepped in and pulled masked protesters out, arresting them ahead of the march kicking off. In at least one case, activists attempted to physically prevent an arrestee from being taken outside. The ensuring struggle resulted in further arrests. The group eventually left Grand Central Terminal, chanting "How do you spell racist? NYPD!" In the first "FTP" protest, activists had hopped subway turnstiles in the hundreds. The civil disobedience was intended to promote the group's demand that the New York subway be made free to ride. Friday night, police attempted to prevent activists from entering the subway, sometimes pushing them away to erect barriers. "Back the fuck up!" yelled an officer at an activist trying to get into the subway. Dozens made it in through an uncovered entrance, either hopping the turnstiles or going through an emergency gate. The activists spanned as far as Brooklyn, where police deployed mace on at least one occasion.
