RFK Jr. , the Foe of Covid Lockdowns, Wants to Lock Out “Economic Migrants”

BY ED RAMPELL RJK Jr., Youtube screengrab. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., son/nephew of a political dynasty and current candidate for president running in the Democratic Party primaries, is widely portrayed by the press as a kooky conspiracy theorist. But he has scored as high as 20% in the polls. Is Bobby Jr. being accurately represented or a serious competitor to Joe Biden for the Democrats’ nomination, who is being maligned and misrepresented? To find out for myself, I attended a press conference/campaign rally for the presidential contender on August 3 at the Saban Theatre in Beverly Hills. High Profile Political Journeys The almost two-hour event focused on one topic: The so-called border crisis, which, if he’s elected president, Kennedy Jr. promised “will be one of my highes...

The Paralysis of Modern Politics: A Socialist Perspective

BY MARK HARRIS Image by Patrick Perkins. There’s an old saying, the more things change, the more they stay the same. But perhaps a more apt description of the modern-day United States might be the more things don’t change, the worse it gets. That’s certainly true for wealth inequality. The average net worth of the Forbes 400 list of richest Americans was 15 times greater in 2022 than it was in 1982, according to the Institute for Policy Studies. Indeed, the richest one percent of Americans now owns more than half of all stock and mutual fund investments. Meanwhile, the top five executives at the largest S&P 500 U.S. corporations held $8.9 billion in tax-deferred retirement accounts as of 2021. Hyatt Corporation’s chief executive held ...

US and UK media censor away a president’s criminal activity

By Lawrence Davidson Presidential thuggery The world has gotten little but grief from the post-World War II crop of US presidents. Whatever the nature of their domestic policies, often influenced by selfish and biased special interests, their foreign policies have often been much worse. How many Central and South Americans have been murdered, tortured and raped by military thugs trained and supported by the US government? US presidents, blinded by ideology, pushed NATO to the borders of Russia and thereby bear much responsibility for the destruction of Ukraine. An entire people – the Palestinians – have been condemned to near destruction with the aid of US support for Israel. And then there was Iraq where, on the basis of nothing more than deception, ignorance and an utt...

Burning of the Quran and the Counter-offensive: Why the West is Panicking

BY RAMZY BAROUD Image by Ayesha Firdaus. Desecrating, then burning the Holy Quran in Sweden has, once again, raised a political storm of condemnation, but also of justification, if not outright approval. Such acts are protected by law, top Swedish and EU officials have declared. But why are the rights of those who oppose western agendas, colonialism, imperialism, Zionism and military interventions not equally protected by law? The Palestine boycott movement, BDS, for example, is constantly fighting in western societies and institutions for the right to use certain language or merely challenge, though non-violently, Israeli occupation and apartheid. Iranian media offices were shut down in some western countries, and various western-operated satelli...

Crucifying Jeremy Corbyn: former Chief Rabbi Zionist Sacks joins in

Crucifying Jeremy Corbyn: former Chief Rabbi Jonathan Sacks joins in The anti-Semitism smear-mongering gets more bizarre each day By Stuart Littlewood The nasty slur campaign against Jeremy Corbyn has just plumbed new depths with a hark-back to 1968 and the Rivers of Blood speech by Enoch Powell. It seems to have been prompted by a remark Corbyn made in 2013 that British Zionists had two problems: “One is they don’t want to study history and, secondly, having lived in this country for a very long time, probably all their lives, they don’t understand English irony.” In anti-Semitism terms that’s a flogging offence, even when it might be true. The former chief rabbi, Lord Jonathan Sacks, immediately took umbrage saying that Corbyn’s criticism of British Zionis...

Silk Mill Lockout 2023 – No Communists Allowed

After handing out hundreds of their leaflets to everyone at a Rally in Derby on 17 June to commemorate the 190th anniversary of a strike of Silk Mill workers in the area, members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (Marxist-Leninist) were told they were not welcome by the very same rally organiser, who apparently welcomes “all and sundry”. Previously the CPGB-ML had applied in good time to have a stall at the event but shortly before it took place the party was informed it could not have one as there were none left to be booked. The political decision made by the CPB organisers to refuse the CPGB-ML a stall was petty, sectarian and totally anti working class. What were they afraid of? Would a genuine Marxist Leninist narrative outshine their tired and worn out s...

Anti-Stalin Propaganda

Why Trotsky Believed It Was Moral to Kill the Tsar's Children—But It Was Immoral of Stalin to Kill Trotsky's “A means can be justified only by its end. But the end in its turn needs to be justified,” Trotsky wrote. JON MILTIMORE Few today would disagree that we live in a morally confused age. Most of us have a sense of right and wrong. But if pressed to explain why we believe what we do, I suspect there would be a great many blanks stares and incoherent responses. Justifying Murder Much of this is attributable to the rise of emotivism, a philosophy that claims all evaluative judgments (even this one) are little more than expressions of preference or feeling, particularly with regard to moral judgments. However, even if this is a philosophy many peo...

Tucker Carlson, The Post-Left, and the Dictatorship of the Proletariat

BY NICK PEMBERTO Drawing by Nathaniel St. Clair The left must be promoted. The left is just as important as the proletariat, if not more. I am not against the left. I am against the post-left. Upon Tucker Carlson’s firing the position of the post-left became even more clarifying. Consider these tweets from the Post-Left Watch: “These people went on Tucker Carlson: Glenn Greenwald, Aaron Maté, Max Blumenthal, Michael Tracey, Russell Brand, Dennis Kucinich, Tulsi Gabbard, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Oliver Stone, Matt Taibbi, Roger Waters, Lee Fang, Tara Reade, Jimmy Dore, Cornel West, Ro Khanna, Krystal Ball…. Other people who went on Tucker Carlson: Anya Parampil, Zaid Jilani, Stephen F. Cohen, Andrew Yang, Jill Stein, Matt Stoller, Angela Nagle, Rod Blagojevich.” These folks h...
