Imagine Hell on Earth Because That’s What’s Coming Unless Americans Start Resisting

Brian-Admin at Health Impact News - 6 hours ago
The destruction of the economy is a necessary aspect of the plan to advance global governance. The more people out of work and dependent on government means that they will be much easier to control. Already mass poverty is evident, and with food supplies dwindling, and so many unable to support their families, starvation among a large part of the population is certainly possible if not probable. These are agendas sought by those in the ruling class that need total compliance in order to restructure the global economic system. This economic collapse coming was imminent, but now is b... more »

Trump sets the Israeli cat among Arab pigeons

barovsky at The New Dark Age - 7 hours ago
The US President Donald Trump’s legacy in the Middle East is going to be that he scattered the region’s Arab unity once and for all. What the successive waves of Cold War, oil, petrodollar, terrorism, political Islam or the Arab Spring couldn’t achieve, Trump managed in less than 3 years. With the artificial insemination of the Arab womb with the Israeli sperm, he has precipitated a catastrophic miscarriage with fatal consequences. Trump lacks the erudition to comprehend the import of what he has triggered.

Did The GOP Convention Lose Trump More Voters? Don't Ask The Facebook Propaganda Machine

On Friday night, Trump hosted another super-spreader event, this one in a crowded airport hanger in New Hampshire. In 2016, New Hampshire was essentially a 47-47% tie, although Hillary had a couple thousand more votes and won the states 4 electoral votes. Trump has always maintained he was ripped off and would win New Hampshire back in 2020. Polling doesn't indicate the race is even close in New Hampshire this year.

The U.S. Navy's Seawolf Submarine: Killer Weapon, Budget Disaster

Kyle Mizokami at The National Interest - 8 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Security, World* [image: Reuters] While unsuccessful as a class, the tiny Seawolf fleet is still a very useful part of the U.S. Navy submarine force. *Here's What You Need To Remember: *The Seawolf submarines were designed with HY-100 steel alloy hulls two inches thick, the better to withstand the pressures of deep diving. HY-100 steel is roughly 20 percent stronger than the HY-80 used in the Los Angeles class.

Cheap Naval Mines Could Bring World Trade to a Halt

US Militarism Toward China Is Part And Parcel Of American Hegemony

Terrace at PopularResistance.Org - 8 hours ago
The COVID-19 pandemic has not made the planet any safer from the threat of U.S. militarism. Nothing encapsulates the inhumanity of the U.S. social order more than the loss of tens of millions of jobs and nearly 200,000 lives occurring alongside the expansion of U.S. aggression around the world.

In the late 60s and 70s, the Black Panther Party (BPP) embodied the vanguard of the revolution and anti-fascist, anti-racist action in the United States. The BPP formed an inclusionary, class-based manifesto, promoted armed self-defense and created an array of community survival programs and services, which included a sophisticated educational platform, free health clinics, breakfast for schoolchildren, teach-ins and more.

Kevin Zeese at PopularResistance.Org - 8 hours ago
Racial disparities have long pervaded every step of the criminal justice process, from police stops, searches, arrests, shootings, and other uses of force to charging decisions, wrongful convictions, and sentences. As a result, many have concluded that a structural or institutional bias against people of color, shaped by long-standing racial, economic, and social inequities, infects the criminal justice system. These systemic inequities can also instill implicit biases — unconscious prejudices that favor in-groups and stigmatize out-groups — among individual law enforcement offic... more »

Silence Is OK

August 30, 2020 By Jeffrey Folks Today’s protesters carry signs claiming that “Silence Is Complicity.” They believe that systemic racism exists in the U.S. and that silence perpetuates it.

Medusa and Memes

Larry-Lambert at Virtual Mirage - 9 hours ago
Medusa (if things had gone differently for Perseus) Medusa carries Perseus’ head low, at her side, and not aloft in triumph. This is not a self-aggrandizing hero lauding her great deed. This is a woman who wanted to be left alone. (Luciano Garbati, 2008) I expect that Perseus commented that Medusa had put on […] The post Medusa and Memes appeared first on Virtual Mirage.

*Fred Lucas* *Politics, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2017%3Anewsml_RC1CB4274A50&share=true] Although the exact foreign power is redacted, there are three key points we now know. The Senate Judiciary Committee released declassified documents this week that showed a major difference in how the FBI—under the leadership of then-Director James Comey—treated investigations into foreign influence on the presidential campaigns of Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump. The FBI provided a “defensive briefing” to the Clinton campaign when it was c... more »

China's Ballistic Missiles: Why the Navy Fears 'Aircraft-Carrier Killer' Missiles

TNI Staff at The National Interest - 9 hours ago
*TNI Staff* *Security, * Many here in Washington believe that the solution is to increase the range of the carrier air wing, but that is easier said than done. The U.S. Navy’s carrier fleet is increasingly challenged in the Western Pacific as China continues its efforts develop anti-access/area denial ( A2/AD) capabilities. Some of those systems include the infamous DF-21D anti-ship ballistic missile and Xian H-6K bomber armed with advanced air launched cruise missiles. Many here in Washington believe that the solution to the problem is to increase the range of the carrier air wi... more »

*Stephen Silver* *Economics, Americas* [image: https://www.reutersconnect.com/all?id=tag%3Areuters.com%2C2018%3Anewsml_RC176D1B0F40&share=true] The retail apocalypse and the coronavirus shutdowns have claimed another company. In this year of coronavirus and stay-at-home orders, quite a few companies in the retail sector have declared bankruptcy, including Modell’s, J. Crew, Neiman Marcus and the parent company of Men’s Wearhouse. Just because a company declared bankruptcy doesn’t mean it’s going out of business; bankruptcy is often used by companies to reorganize their debts an... more »

Will Donald Trump’s Law and Order Suburb Strategy Win the Election?

*Rachel Bucchino* *Politics, * “I pledge to you, the wave of crime is not going to be the wave of the future in America.” Guess who said that. Here is a hint, it was not Donald Trump. Civil unrest has swarmed America’s major cities — protesters burst stores into flames, gunshots wounded resistors, looting erupted in the streets — and President Donald Trump has made tackling this chaos a centerpiece on his platform going into the 2020 presidential election. At the Republican National Convention that ended last week, speakers focused on restoring law and order, noting that protes... more »

Change or Sink: Why Aircraft Carrier Strategy Must Evolve

LT X at The National Interest - 9 hours ago
*LT X* *Security, World* American naval forces are not a tool for strategic strikes. Instead, they should be used operationally, to provide strategic affects. *Here's What You Need To Remember:* This work is about naval aviation in an era of contested sea control. This era will require airborne forces to re-examine the assumptions of the past six decades of naval aviation, retooling the air wing for maritime strike. This will require radically different magazine selections on the carrier, likely some new weapons, including higher-capability anti-ship weapons, and a total retoolin... more »

5 Worst U.S. Political Conventions of All-Time

*Rachel Bucchino* *Politics, * Fact: During the 1972 Democratic Party Convention, Mao was nominated to be Vice President. At a political convention, the leading party’s candidate delivers a message to voters about why they should back their ticket come election day. Conventions formally select the party’s nominee and feature several prominent political figures who support the candidate, advocating for the party’s ideals, principles and goals for the next four years if elected. Some conventions have been notable enough to unite a party to support a particular candidate. Others,... more »

The Role of Sympathy in Policy

Jon Murphy at Econlib - 10 hours ago
It is no great revelation to say that the policy responses to the COVID pandemic varies considerably between Republicans, liberals, and Democrats. A charitable interpretation of the differences are that Republicans and (classical) liberals are concerned about government overreach, undermining the rule of law, and that the costs of policies far exceed the benefits. Democrats […] The post The Role of Sympathy in Policy appeared first on Econlib.
