Nexus X HumectressBy Tucker Higgins CNBC Three former Minneapolis police officers will be criminally charged Wednesday in connection with the death of George Floyd, Sen. Amy Klobuchar wrote in a post on Twitter. In addition, Derek Chauvin, a former officer who had already been charged with third-degree murder in the […]
Bernie is just as weak a leader as Trump. He proved that by allowing the DNC to swindle him out of the nomination not once but twice without raising a peep. Krystal is right when she says there is no “trusted national leader” on the scene. But that’s […]
Zuck is apparently insisting on maintaining his autonomy while claiming a leadership role in the techno-oligarch/new clerisy alliance of which he is a part.
As I have said, the power elite apparently does not yet feel threatened by the insurrection. If there were, Raytheon puppet Esper would most certainly be calling for invoking the Insurrection Act.
The Trump administration is using Antifa as a scapegoat to deflect attention away from the substance of the insurrection. It couldn’t have happened to nicer people. Clearly, the centrist, balanced, nuanced, moderate position on looting is to favor attacking governments, corporations, banks, police stations, courthouses, and the ruling […]
The victories of the gay rights and marijuana legalization movements were not achieved until a slight majority of Americans came to agree with them. I’ve always that pan-anarchism cannot achieve victory until a popular majority at least tacitly agrees with us. It seems like we’re making progress. Although […]
Like I used to say during the Bush years, “We are all Iraqis now.” The race and class disparities among victims of the police state are obvious enough, and should be pointed out, but by no means should it end there. The System is the enemy of all […]
Not bad.
The System is clearly concerned about the possible political fragmentation of the armed forces. Secretary of Defense Mark Esper (a Raytheon puppet) recently urged military personnel to “stay apolitical.” He wouldn’t have said that if he wasn’t worried about it. During the Vietnam War, service members deserted, mutinied, […]
As if they weren’t already? The DEA is as responsible for the creation of the modern American police state as anyone. Wouldn’t it be funny if protestors went to their headquarters across the street from the Pentagon in Arlington and took it out? By Jason Leopold and Anthony […]
Enemy military vehicles taken out in armed struggle with minimal collateral damage. Impressive. Los Angeles: no civilian cars were harmed in the making of this photo.
As one who strives to be a consistent anarchist, I have been in favor of both sets of protests.
This is hardly new. After the melee at the 1968 Democratic National Convention, the office of Attorney General Ramsey Clark’s investigation claimed what happened in Chicago was a police riot. But then the incoming Nixon administration (in collusion with outgoing Johnson administration officials) used the events in Chicago […]
Fragmentation between the educationist and law enforcement wings of the managerial class. Interesting. By Ryan Faircloth Star Tribune Minneapolis Public Schools has severed its decadeslong relationship with the city’s police department in response to the death of George Floyd in police custody. The school board voted unanimously Tuesday […]
If Trump is the Nixon of our time, and Sanders is the McGovern, then Biden is the Hubert Humphrey. By Zachary Evans National Review Joe Biden on Monday suggested that police forces could train officers to shoot attackers in the legs in order to reduce potential fatalities. There […]
You’re not really helping your own cause, dude. By Ryan Grim, Aída Chávez The Intercept In an interview in April, Lt. Bob Kroll, head of Minneapolis’s police union, said that he and a majority of the Minneapolis Police Officers’ Federation’s board have been involved in police shootings. Kroll […]
As I have been saying since Trump was elected, Trump represents the pre-1960s WASP culture’s last stand. Nixon’s “silent majority” is now a fading minority. The Rainbow culture is now moving to the forefront. By Thomas Wright The Atlantic We are in the Götterdämmerung now, the final phase […]
They say that like it’s a bad thing. If only it were true. One of the reasons the Swiss system (which is theoretically similar) has been more successful than ours is because it doesn’t have a presidential system. Their executive branch is merely a council appointed by the […]
Donald Milhous Trump. I’ve always thought Trump resembled nothing quite so much as the Nixon, Nelson Rockefeller, Spiro Agnew, etc. Republicans from the 70s. He’s not the supply-side dogmatist that emerged during the 80s, and his foreign policy approach is more in the vein of Kissinger’s Machiavellian realism […]
The Washington Post has long been known in “foreign policy dissident” circles as the “voice of CIA.” The WaPo is now owned by Bezos which indicates that an alliance has formed between the Deep State and the techno-oligarchs (the rising wing of the ruling class, gradually eclipsing the […]
A far-left vs. alt-right debate. Breakout the popcorn.
Joseph Cotto and I discuss the totalitarian left.
As I said in the previous post, current events are no skin off the ass of the ruling class whatsoever. If the stock market is soaring, they’re happy. My guess is that the power elite probably sees the insurrection as an exaggerated sports riot, as opposed to a […]
From a purely factual perspective, Trump is correct that what is going on now is a class-based insurrection, and not merely a protest movement, a series of riots, or a crime wave. From a purely legal perspective, the 1807 Insurrection Act does indeed give the President the authority […]
The original medical examiner lied to cover up for the Minneapolis pigs. Krystal and Saagar discuss remarks from Dr. Michael Baden, who said George Floyd was dead ‘many minutes’ before he was transferred to hospital.
It’s interesting how en vogue anti-capitalism has now become on both the left and right. On the margins, we see the Antifas carrying a hammer and sickle flag, and the Alt-Right becoming Nazbols. In the mainstream, we see the rise of social democrats like Sanders and AOC on […]
I wonder if this article was written before or after the results of the independent autopsy came out, and essentially revealed that the initial autopsy was part of the coverup. I also wonder if this guy ever thought he would become the most hated man in the world […]
This was recording before the results of the independent autopsy were revealed. Also, at the time I mistakenly thought George Floyd had been accused of forging a check as opposed to passing a $20. The Mindcrime Liberty Show is joined by Keith Preston to discuss the details around […]
As the de facto voice of the MAGAs, Tucker Carlson’s George Wallace-like commentary is predictable. Regrettably, many MAGA-types have too many cultural, psychological, and other barriers to view the insurrection in any context other than “those people are causing trouble.” The lamentable limitations of Carlson’s fans were summarized […]
Patrick Underwood has been identified as the Federal Protective Service officer who was shot and killed Friday night, the family confirms to ABC7 News. Officials say he was watching over the George Floyd protest in Oakland and police say it was most likely a targeted attack.
Hiding in their gated mansions with their private security forces, of course. CNN’s Don Lemon calls celebrities of all races to step up a show public support for protesters demonstrating against the death of George Floyd.
When the troops start defecting, the ruling class is in deep shit. Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson spoke with demonstrators who were met by police officers in riot gear and then joined the protest, according to CNN affiliate WEYI.
Good job, Justin. In the Ottoman Empire, murder was literally legal for someone who held the rank of sultan. “Qualified immunity” serves the same purpose for cops in the US Empire. By David Morgan Reuters WASHINGTON (Reuters) – With cities across America in turmoil over the death of […]
The question is: Why are we simply obligated to take this shit? On August 30, 2010, John T. Williams, a Native American woodcarver, was walking across the street carrying his carving knife and a small piece of wood when he was shot four times by Officer Ian Birk […]
It’s rather ironic that the supposed social democratic utopia of Sweden has adopted the anti-lockdowners’ preferred laissez-faire approach to COVID-19.
I oppose random violence against other individuals, interracial violence, attacks on ordinary journalists, and the destruction of residences, small businesses, places of worship, and historic landmarks or architecture. But as for corporate retail and fast-food chains (modern sweatshops), police precincts (enemy military bases), courthouses (civilian headquarters of the […]
This is an interesting discussion at times, although the Jacobin boys show their statism at times.
It looks like we’re getting all of the above.
I have to agree with Trump that the attack on CNN’s headquarters was fantastic. Fuck the propaganda arm of the neoliberal class.
Of course. It’s one of the oldest tricks in the book.
By Sean Collins Vox The protests that have risen up in many cities in the United States over the past week were sparked by the killing of an unarmed black man, George Floyd, by now-fired police officers in Minneapolis. Even though one former officer, Derek Chauvin, has been […]
The battle between techno-oligarchs and the mouthpieces for the right-wing of the ruling class continues. Matt Gaetz has the look of a probable incel. By Justine Coleman MSN.Com Twitter has restricted a Monday tweet from Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.), saying it glorifies violence, a move that comes after […]
Next up: Antifa poses as “boogaloos”? I am frequently asked by “extremists” of all kinds why I don’t reflexively take “their side” in whatever dumbass cause they’re promoting (“Get off the fence, man!”). The answer is because none of them would create a better society than the one […]
Fragmentation seems to be taking place within the ranks of the state, ruling class, and state security forces. Municipal police forces and municipal governments are turning on each other. The Trump administration and the state governors are having a falling out. Some police are joining the protests. Trump […]
“Don’t give the game away too soon, Donnie. Keep the cards closer to your vest,” said the Pentagon. This is why the Deep State dislikes Trump so much. He’s too much of loose cannon. By Barbara Starr, Ryan Browne and Nicole Gaouette, CNN Washington (CNN)Defense officials tell CNN […]
The eventual overthrow of the state (not that we are anywhere remotely approaching that) will depend, in part, on the defection, acquiescence, or fragmentation of large numbers of the state security forces. That was the only thing that prevented a KGB/Red Army coup in the former USSR in […]
By Hollie Silverman CNN (CNN)Americans have been protesting the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis police for days on end in dozens of cities throughout the United States. While tensions between police and demonstrators have heated up in many places, some officers have shown […]
By Benjamin Wallace-Wells The New Yorker I lived in Baltimore during the Freddie Gray protests in April, 2015. My apartment was in a brownstone next to a small park in a pretty neighborhood called Bolton Hill, which sits on the border between downtown and the West Baltimore neighborhoods […]
