By Glenn Greenwald The overarching ideology of Pentagon officials is larger military budgets and ongoing permanent war posture. Their new war target, explicitly, is domestic “white rage.” For two hundred forty years, American generals have not exactly been defined by adamant public advocacy for left-wing cultural dogma.

Founder of The Daily Poster, David Sirota, discusses the challenges of independent media.
Some of Dave’s interviews have been interesting. I used to like his show. But over time he’s just become a Republican brown noser. He reminds me of a less intelligent version of the Communist intellectuals from the 20th century who would do a “God That Failed” about-face and […]
