The Young Turk’s Cenk Uygur discusses how 90% of the coronavirus bill went to big businesses, and says that Democrats gaslit progressives on provisions to the stimulus bill to keep progressives, like AOC, from blocking votes.
Krystal and Saagar discuss a new pew research poll that shows the majority of voters who have a problem with a white older candidate are white, Warren supporters.
The Democrats are losing the young people and the Republicans are losing the old people. Excellent.
Saagar Enjeti discusses the new coronavirus relief bill that extended the paycheck protection program by $350 billion almost a week after the program, which has loaned money to nearly 1/5th of american small businesses, ran out of funds.
Krystal Ball discusses a new survey from Chegg that shows 22% of college students will not vote in the general election, and what this means for the future of the country.
When Trump was running for office in 2016, I knew that he would mostly govern as a normal Republican or neoliberal centrist, with a rhetorically leftward turn on a few issues (trade, gays, foreign policy, etc.), and that his more rightward rhetoric was mostly a bone thrown to […]
The latter part of this segment has an interesting discussion of the differences between Carlson’s and Hannity’s coverage of COVID-19. Krystal and Saagar look at a Tucker Carlson FOX News clip, where he calls out Trump for not doing enough on illegal immigration, which makes cheap labor easier […]
A great example of the application of the anarchist principle of direct action.
Features, Apr 21st Freedom spoke to Ruth Kinna, author of numerous books on anarchism about the origins and key concepts of anarchism. What do you find most attractive about anarchism? I like the starting point. Anarchists usually start with a critique of injustice and an assumption of social […]
Dr. James Hildreth states exosome and virus is the same thing. 80% false positives with the test! Regardless of that flawed test, that will possibly get you removed to isolation/detention under the new laws being passed worldwide.
By Smriti Mallapaty Nature Antibody tests might be used to help stem the COVID-19 pandemic — but first must overcome several hurdles.Credit: Greg Baker/AFP/Getty British Prime Minister Boris Johnson called them a ‘game changer’. Antibody tests have captured the world’s attention for their potential to help life return […]
What would be the implications of Zeihan’s geopolitical analysis for global anti-imperialist struggle? As American unipolar hegemony recedes and the number of failed and/or weakened states proliferates, how can self-determinationists use these circumstances to our advantage? Zeihan’s analysis of domestic US politics is also consistent with my own, […]
I’m rooting for Lori in this. I think she’s being railroaded. By Maria Pasquini People A federal judge in the ongoing college admissions scandal has responded to Lori Loughlin’s claim that the FBI told Rick Singer to lie about her and husband Mossimo Giannulli‘s knowledge of bribes being […]
Conflict between the Prez and the Govs, and conflict between the Gov and the locals. Excellent. Both horizontal and vertical divisiveness.

Just like 1918. By Lena H. Sun The Washington Post Even as states move ahead with plans to reopen their economies, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned Tuesday that a second wave of the novel coronavirus will be far more dire because it […]
Is the right-wing of the ruling class using the current situation to pick a fight with China? China has very limited naval power and poses no conventional military threat to the US. By Hannah Beech New York Times American warships have sailed into disputed waters in the South […]
The primary problem that social democrats have is that they are not revolutionaries.
An article on the rise of fourth-generation warfare. By Robert Muggah and John P. Sullivan Foreign Policy Wars are on the rebound. There are twice as many civil conflicts today, for example, as there were in 2001. And the number of nonstate armed groups participating in the bloodshed is multiplying. According to […]
This includes a pretty good discussion of domestic politics as well as international relations. I’d like to see Peter Zeihan debate Alexander Dugin on the future of geopolitics.
Politico Facebook is blocking anti-quarantine protesters from using the site to organize in-person gatherings that violate states’ stay-at-home orders — a move that had brought an immediate backlash from conservatives including President Donald Trump’s eldest son. The world’s largest social network has removed protest messages in California, New […]
LOL. One thing that’s interesting to consider is that if Biden gets elected whoever his picks as his VP will be acting President.
Is Fat Boy/Rocket Man on his way out?
Not bad. Although let’s be clear: Alexandria is not radical or revolutionary. She does not call for the abolition of the state, the overthrow of the ruling class, or overthrow of the empire. She’s merely a reformist. Krystal and Saagar discuss AOC’s decision not to vote for […]
Of course. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, NPR, social media, and the majority of the print media are the propaganda arms of the Democratic Party, left-wing of the ruling class, and the Wall Street-Big Tech-suburban-new clerisy (media, academia, ideas industries) coalition. FOX, talk radio, some print media […]
Our nation is going full Monty Python. By Maia Booker Time As small groups of demonstrators gathered in cities nationwide to protest the ongoing COVID-19 lockdowns, one set of images in particular have been widely shared online. Taken by Colorado-based photographer Alyson McClaran in Denver on April 19, […]

By Sarah Pulliam Bailey The Washington Post A megachurch pastor in Louisiana who has defied stay-at-home orders intended to prevent the spread of the coronavirus by holding large worship services is facing criminal charges for driving a church bus […]
Of all the stupid shit to die for. If you’re going to risk your life by not socially distancing or whatever at least do something productive like go to the beach or have a backyard party. Associated Press MILWAUKEE (AP) — Officials have identified seven people who appear […]
The current crisis hasn’t only produced bad things. It has also produced many good things: school cancelations, prisoner releases, reductions in pollution, fewer traffic accidents, the oil industry tanking, rising class consciousness, politicians increasingly exposed as petty tyrants and incompetent morons, pro-civil liberties protests, greater levels of mutual […]
To what degree will the State attempt to make medical martial law permanent? By Hristina Byrnes Most of the United States is in lockdown as people are staying inside, keeping clear of the novel coronavirus that has killed about 41,000 Americans as of April 20. Nonessential businesses are […]
By Peter Kakol Infoshop Anarchism is greatly misunderstood in the English speaking world where, due to a successful and long-standing propaganda campaign by the wealthy and their servants, anarchism is equated with irrational violence, terrorism, lawlessness, and the misdefinition of the word ‘anarchy’ to make it synonymous with […]
This guy’s commentary on the Biden-bootlickers is pretty good. Interestingly, he admits that a Trump presidency is likely strategically preferable.
The actual commentary in this isn’t bad, but Laura predictably mars the presentation with the standard hysteria over “socialism.” No, Laura, so-called “progressives” who line up behind bankster-puppet Joe Biden are not “socialists.”

Bannon spinning the Sinophobia line. It’s interesting how the right-wing of the ruling class is now using a backwater province in the global capitalist empire, whose primary function is to provide cheap labor and cheap loans to Western corporations and governments, as a whipping boy.
Great Depression Two.
It’s good to see some of these more independently-minded progressives like Kyle Kulinski, Jimmy Dore, Krystal Ball, and Kim Iverson questioning the sanctity of voting. The argument that Chomsky presents for Biden is rooted in nothing other pathological right-wingophobia. Trump is a con man, glorified carnival barker, and […]

By Annie Palmer CNBC Amazon warehouse workers are planning a “mass call out” this week to call attention to what they call a lack of protections for employees who continue to come to work amid the coronavirus outbreak. © Provided by CNBC Amazon workers at Amazon’s Staten Island […]
by Anarcho via Anarchist Writers I thought I would discuss the current coronavirus crisis and how an anarchist society would deal with it. This will be speculative but hopefully convincing as far as any discussion of a future society can be – although I do end with a […]
Infoshop.Org via Elle By Jessica Roy In the Kurdish region of northeast Syria, a female-only ecological commune has sprung up as a place for women displaced by the Syrian revolution and the rise of the Islamic State. The cooperative is called Jinwar—Kurdish for “Women’s Land”—and it’s home to […]
Kyle calls out Chomsky and totally nails it in this.
