Will We Ever See Systemic Change?
It’s interesting how in this segment, Krystal and Saager essentially admit that the system can’t be fixed, and then fall back on the usual FDR-love and “vote for Bernie” or whatever bullshit. Lame.

Media outlets are the new churches just like universities are the new seminaries. Journalist and author, Matt Taibbi, discusses Americans’ diminishing trust in traditional media.
I can think of few things that more perfectly symbolize what the Democrats are about than Biden’s placing a bust of Cesar Chavez in the Oval Office (supposedly in the place of Winston Churchill) while recognizing Juan Gaido as the legitimate president of Venezuela. Of course, the Ben […]
I’m sure these “100 civil rights groups” will be taken very seriously by Sleepy Joe and Police State Kamala. By Scott Shackford, Reason Civil rights groups across the country are urging President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, as well as Congressional Democrats, not to pass new […]
The most serious domestic issue at present. The modern police state really began with Nixon’s war on drugs in the 1970s, which was expanded by Reagan and Poppy Bush in the 80s. It then became a general war on crime, guns, gangs, etc, in the 1990s, following by […]

By Stansfield Smith, One World With the exit of Trump, we can expect renewed threats against North Korea and increased military action in the Middle East. We will experience not just an end to presidential condemnations of the national security state, but its further unleashing on the US […]
That would render the Republicans permanently irrelevant. Krystal Ball and Saagar Enjeti react to a WSJ report that President Trump is planning to start a third political party.

US politics right now (and to some degree Western politics generally) seems to be kind of repeat of what happened in the 19th century when the rising industrial bourgeois was eclipsing the traditional royal, aristocratic, an clerical elites as the dominant class. Right now we have this rising […]
This guy really needs to be the subject of a comic stip where the main character is some stereotypical anarcho-loser.
This offers an interesting perspective though I tend to disagree on a few points. I prefer for the Internet to be the proverbial “Wild West.” Saagar Enjeti analyzes Trump’s removal from various social media platforms and discusses how conservatives should react.
This commentary is fairly nuance commentary. Krystal strikes me as being similar to Tulsi in the sense of being frequently lame but capable of learning. Krystal Ball reflects on Rising’s coverage of Trump’s presidency and the 2020 election specifically, noting the successful moments and the moments she regrets.
Today NBC News national security analyst Frank Figliuzzi joins Sunday TODAY’s Willie Geist to discuss how officials are able to track down people who stormed the Capitol on Wednesday. “Rest assured, if you were inside that Capitol building, consequences are coming, and it may not be a polite […]
The Princess is crying because someone vandalized the aristocrat’s castle.
In this, Rather actually claims that the riot at the Capitol was worse than the Great Depression, WW2, Watergate, and 9-11. These folks definitely give Trump a run for his money in terms of narcissistic capabilities.
Apparently, General Colon’s fraudulent presentation at the UN in 2003 about Iraq’s non-existent nuclear weapons somehow wasn’t a “national disgrace.” Former Secretary of State Colin Powell says Wednesday was a ‘national disgrace, but we’ll come through it.’ Secy. Powell questions the lack of organized security at the U.S. […]

–Republican Utah Senator Mitt Romney is confronted by an absolute lunatic Trump cultist while waiting to get on a plain in an airport
Rush Limbaugh is a total douchebag but he’s closer to the truth here than Hollywood progresso-nerd Sam Sedar and trust fund commie-girl Emma Vigeland. What exactly was the American Revolution if it wasn’t the violent overthrow of an established government that claimed legitimacy by virtue of its mere […]

For decades, I always thought that in an actual revolutionary situation, it would be the urban lumpenproletariat that was taking down the muncipales and the rural suburban lumpenproletariat that was taking down the federales. Events of the past six months seem to have confirmed that suspicion, with some […]
We are a long way from an actual revolutionary situation. As long as the stock market is doing well, and as long as the military remains loyal to the state, there is no revolution. Those two things are the only two things the power elite care about. When […]
