Debates expose Democrat failed policies
Washington Examiner: Tuesday night’s debates were an unmitigated disaster for Democrats across the board. In Michigan, Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer resorted to misrepresenting her COVID record when pressed ever so slightly on the issue of school closures. Over in New York, Democratic Gov. Kathy Hochul floundered when confronted about her state’s rising crime rates. And in Pennsylvania, Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman, who suffered a stroke earlier this year, struggled to put together a coherent thought. Each of these candidates held comfortable leads over their Re... read more

It’s not just you or your kids: Cold-and-flu season is off to a particularly nasty start across the United States.

The Importance Of The Big Lie
Donald Trump has long had a habit of saying the quiet part out loud. And he's done it again. Greg Sargent writes: Donald Trump has long harbored a tendency to confess to his sins in public. Now he’s done it again, revealing a large truth about today’s Republican Party in the process: He declared that his lies about the 2020 election are instrumentally useful in motivating GOP base voters. Trump raised this in a call with Blake Masters, the Republican nominee in the Arizona Senate race, that was captured in a new Fox News documentary. Trump faulted Masters for saying at a debate th... read more
SLOW LEARNER
*New York Times* opinion columnist Katherine Miller almost gets it, about a year late: ... what if we’ve already reached the post-Trump era? Consider the case of Glenn Youngkin, Virginia’s former private equity co-C.E.O. governor with a sunshine demeanor, and Kari Lake, Arizona’s Republican nominee for governor, a wild proponent of Donald Trump’s claims that the election was stolen from him.... Mr. Youngkin campaigned for her last week, across several events.... there was no clash. It wasn’t one of those awkward, painful episodes in which a more traditional Republican makes an exp... read more

How Walker's debate performance moved him to Georgia lead
Conservative Brief: ... Sen. Warnock appeared very caught off guard many times when Walker, his Republican challenger, tore into him during their first and only debate ahead of the midterm elections. Walker, a former Georgia Bulldogs football player, showed up and delivered a solid performance. In particular, Walker held Warnock’s feet to the fire during an exchange about abortion. Warnock, who is a pastor, advocates for no limits on abortion. Walker is pro-life. Walker said, “[Warnock] told me black lives matter, and if you think about it, senator, in Atlanta, Georgia, there ... read more

Iran dealt a crushing blow to the EU
Declaring economic war on Russia, the European Union could not even imagine the number of countries that would want to take the place of European companies that had left the Russian market. Faced with unprecedented Western sanctions on Russia, Moscow began to change the entire structure of further economic cooperation and development. And unfortunately for the collective West, many countries of the world not only refused to join Western sanctions against Russia, but also began active economic cooperation with Moscow. In particular, many countries of the world have provided R... read more

The Global Fragility Act: Washington’s New Tool for Controlling an Unruly Haiti
With Russia and China increasingly assertive and influential worldwide, Washington recently rolled out its gambit to maintain global hegemony and gather former colonies and neo-colonies under its wing: the Global Fragility Act (GFA). The U.S. government has selected Haiti to be the first GFA “partner” in the Western Hemisphere. Also in the GFA’s pilot group are Libya, Mozambique, and Papua New Guinea, along with West Africa’s Benin, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Guinea, and Togo. The GFA has been largely applauded by U.S. policy commentators and think-tanks as something novel and enlight... read more

US Tries To Bend UN Charter To Bless Illegal, Unwanted Invasion Of Haiti
The gloves came off at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) on Monday, October 17, 2022 in one of the best bare-knuckle since the dawn of the new multipolar world on February 24, 2022. And the subject was Haiti. The United States is to justify its fourth major military intervention into Haiti in a century. To do so, Washington is playing fast-and-loose with the UN Charter, trying to deputize one nation or group of nations to intervene on its behalf. Sources say that the candidates for the honor are Canada, Mexico, and Norway. However, veto-wielders China and Russia are push... read more
Viewpoint: It’s Time to Tap into Labor’s Fortress of Finance
Despite the recent upsurge in worker militancy, union membership and density have been declining for decades. But a close look at labor’s finances suggests that unions have the economic resources to potentially reverse this decline. Standard explanations for labor’s decline blame our grossly unfair labor laws, the full-scale corporate attack on organizing and collective bargaining, and economic trends including the decline of manufacturing. But labor is not a passive bystander. Unions have the resources to deploy to new organizing and growth. They have chosen to pursue a defensive... read more

‘I don’t want to work two jobs’: College of William
Dining workers across the US were hit hard by the pandemic. Layoffs, staff shortages that have put immense pressure on workers (increasing workloads and creating long lines), requests by some schools for faculty and staff to volunteer to assist in dining halls—all of this has created nearly impossible working conditions. For all their sacrifices and best efforts, however, as working conditions have continued to deteriorate, pay and benefits have stagnated. As a result, some workers in this industry are attempting to unionize to improve these conditions and push universities to tre... read more
