Minions: The Fall of Boris

By:  Michael Shrimpton British Prime Minister Boris Johnson finally resigned on Thursday, although he didn’t actually use the words ‘resign’ or ‘resignation’ in the short speech delivered outside Downing St. The hysterically pro-EU BBC screamed the end of Brexit. In fact Boris’s departure heralds the end of the hated Northern Ireland Protocol and Withdrawal Agreement. Boris will probably stay on as Prime Minister whilst a new leader of the Tory Party is chosen. He has only resigned as Tory leader, not as Prime Minister. There have been moves to prevent him staying on, effectively as a caretaker, but they appear to have failed. The 1922 Committee are cracking on with the election of the new leader as quickly as possible. Boris can do a lot of damage between now and September o...

Gradually. But ever more severely, to the point where most everyone is confused, preferring holding on to his / her comfort zone, also called cognitive dissonance. George Orwell...

Many Nations Have Used COVID to Impose the Tyranny of Transnational Capital

Book cover to Global Civil War: Capitalism Post-Pandemic. BY: William I. Robinson, PM Press Not far from my home in Los Angeles are about a hundred houses that have been boarded up for years. The houses were bought up by the city in the late twentieth century through eminent domain in order to make way for an extension of the 710 freeway that dead ends into my El Sereno neighborhood. But opposition from affluent communities further east eventually killed the project, leaving the houses to lay vacant. Meanwhile, there were on any given night in 2020 some 130,000 homeless people in the city, a thousand of whom died in the streets in the first ten months of that year. One may imagine that this homeless crisis was the result of a shortage of housing. Yet in 2020 there was a surp...

Summit of the Americas Flops While Workers Summit Exposes Cracks in the Imperial Façade

BY ROGER HARRIS Photograph Source: Palácio do Planalto from Brasilia, Brasil – CC BY 2.0 Valentín, the man next to us in line as we made our way across the international border, asked what we had been doing in Tijuana. We had been at the Workers Summit of the Americas, organized as an alternative to Biden’s Summit of the Americas in Los Angeles. Our summit was as a place where countries besieged by and barred from the US could participate and was held in cooperation with a kindred counter-summit in Los Angeles. Valentín, who had been born in Mexico and spent most of his working life in the United States, had seen the border from both perspectives. He commented about Biden’s summit that although the US is rich in resources, industry, and agriculture, “it wants i...

Supreme Court Tortures the Constitution Again

BY JAMES BOVARD Image Source: Waterboarding of Abu Zubaydah by Dmitry Borshch – CC BY 3.0 The Supreme Court ruled in March that Americans have no right to learn the grisly details of CIA torture because the CIA has never formally confessed its crimes. The case symbolizes how the rule of law has become little more than legal mumbo-jumbo to shroud official crimes. And it is another grim reminder that Americans cannot rely on politically approved lawyers wearing bat suits to save their freedoms. In 2002, the CIA captured Abu Zubaydah, a Palestinian radical, in Pakistan and falsely believed he was a kingpin with al Qaeda. The CIA tortured him for years in Thailand and Poland. As Justice Neal Gorsuch noted, the CIA “waterboarded Zubaydah at least 80 times, simulated...

Apartheid South Africa! Apartheid ‘Israel’!: Ticking the Boxes of Occupation and Dispossession

By Brian J. Brown, independently published, 2022, paperback, 250 pp. MEB $25 Reviewed by Steve France South African born, the Rev. Brian J. Brown helped bring down the original apartheid system—goading Christians to keep faith with the teachings of Jesus Christ. Now, Brown says, a similar “moment of truth” has arrived for followers of the Way of Jesus. “The fires of the South African apartheid struggle burn as fiercely in today’s Palestine,” he writes in Apartheid South Africa! Apartheid Israel! And that, he argues, confronts Christians with a “fresh crisis of Gospel integrity.” Of course, few people want to believe there’s apartheid in the Holy Land. That’s why Brown’s book title is as blunt as a man crying “fire!” He builds his case for emergency action b...

Storms at the Summit of the Americas

BY ROSA ELIZALDE Photo of Luis Almagro. Photograph Source: U.S. Department of State from United States – Public Domain June 7 was a bad day for Luis Almagro, secretary-general of the Organization of American States (OAS). During the ninth Summit of the Americas, a young man declared to him what he is: an assassin and puppet of the White House, instigator of the coup in Bolivia. He said that Almagro cannot come to give lessons on democracy when his hands are stained with blood. In another room at the summit in Los Angeles, Secretary of State Antony Blinken seemed to be doing no better: several journalists rebuked him for using freedom of the press to provide cover for the murderers of journalists and for sanctioning and excluding certain countries from this meeting...

Bilderberg Meets in Washington: Bilderberg Does China. An Economic Hurricane Is Coming

By Pepe Escobar,As Bilderberg follows Chatham House Rules, mere mortals won’t have a clue of what they actually “proposed” or approved, and none of the participants will be allowed to talk about it with anyone else. One of my top New York sources, with direct access to most of the Masters of the Universe, loves to quip that Davos and Bilderberg are just for the messenger boys: the guys who really run the show don’t even bother to show up, ensconced in their uber-private meetings in uber-private clubs, where the real decisions are made.

Obituary of Annette Beaumanoir, an anti-fascist, anti-imperialist heroine of our times

Annette Beaumanoir was born in Brittany, France, in 1923.  Her father, Jean, came from a wealthy family but was cut off with a shilling when he insisted on marrying his beloved, Marthe, the daughter of a lowly farm worker.  The family was progressive and anti-fascist, with Jean and Marthe supporting the International Brigades in Spain and participating in a solidarity committee to help people escaping the Franco regime. As a young person she learnt about the horrors being perpetrated against Jewish people in Nazi Germany, although this was information that was largely suppressed in France at the time, as it was in Britain.  This was important in persuading her to join the French resistance at the age of 17,  in order the better to fight the Nazis. In July 19...

How Crypto is Using the Behavioral Dynamics of Bernie Madoff’s Fraud

Posted by: John Phoenix Photograph Source: Ivan Radic – CC BY 2.0 On June 18, 1991 I was having lunch with two of my new investment clients on the outdoor patio of their private country club on Long Island. As their friends stopped by the table, the married couple introduced me as their investment advisor and recommended me to their friends. One friend said to my astonishment: “Can you guarantee me the same 13 percent annual return as Bernie Madoff?” If one is a reputable, licensed broker, guaranteeing a 13 percent return – or any guaranteed return on a stock portfolio – is a flagrant violation of the rules of the investment industry. It can also strip you of your license, your career, and get you perp walked. Stock investing is a volatile endeavor. Stocks can go ...
