The COVID-19 Pandemic Shows That Capitalism Fails Workers
The past month has seen unimaginable suffering among American workers—suffering caused by the enormous callousness of bosses, a tyrannical White House, and a society designed to fail those who need it the most. At the same time, we have seen the scope of the politically possible dramatically change, securing the potential—slim though it may be—that crisis can, like the Great Depression, lead to a fundamental realignment of American society away from robber barons like Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos and toward American workers. It is up to labor to fight for that future, and it will not... more »
A Russian Firewall For Venezuela Against US Sanctions
An unnamed company owned entirely by the Kremlin will be buying the Rosneft subsidiary and its oil services and trading operations in Venezuela. The deal between Rosneft (headed by Igor Sechin) and the Kremlin (headed by Vladimir Putin) boils down to the latter now directly taking over. Rosneft is disengaging from its trading arm Rosneft Trading SA, the Geneva-based trading subsidiary, in a deliberate ploy to create a firewall against potential US sanctions in future. The Kremlin is having the last laugh. Venezuela accounts for over 18 percent of proven oil reserves all over the ... more »

World Bank: Iraq’s Economy To Contract 9% in 2020
(GH Headline) The World Bank released a report on Iraq’s dire economic future. It was even worse than what the International Monetary Fund (IMF) predicted earlier. Iraq is dealing with the dual crises of the meltdown in the world oil market and the coronavirus outbreak.

The World Bank believes that Iraq’s economy will contract by -9.7% in 2020. That compared to the IMF that predicted a -4.7% growth rate ... more »

COVID-19 Reveals Viral Discrimination, Higher Ed Should Pay Attention

R5519 And The Cosmic Ring Of Fire From 11 Billion BC

That means it is three million times bigger than the diameter of the supermassive black hole in the galaxy Messier 87, which in 2019 became the first ever to be directly imaged. Astronomers have captured an image of this "cosmic ring of fire" as it existed 11 billion years ago. It was roughly the mass of the Milk... more »

Dr. Fauci says we can't stay locked up forever
The intent of the original lockdown was to keep hospitals from overflowing. That objective has been achieved but Democrats want to keep us locked down because they think a tanked economy will help Joe Biden win the Presidency. That's despite studies that have shown that as many as 150,000 Americans could die deaths of despair-- due to suicide, drug use, etc-- if the lock down isn't lifted quickly. Now Dr. Fauci, whom the left views as infallible, is saying that minimizing the overall death toll means we need to end the lockdown. Here's what he said on Friday: *"We can't stay lock... more »

A China-India Clash Would Be Xi Jinping's Grand Mistake

Review: Netflix's 'Space Force' Fails to Achieve Liftoff
*Stephen Silver* *Netflix, * "Space Force," on paper, looked like one of the year's most promising new shows. Its creators have a strong comedy pedigree, it's assembled a talented cast full of TV comedy stars, and the concept has seemingly limitless potential for comedy. Unfortunately, the show goes down as a major disappointment. Back in March of 2018, President Trump formally announced his intention to create the U.S. Space Force, the first new branch of the U.S. Armed Forces in decades. Less than a year later, in January of 2019, Netflix announced that it was planning a "Spac... more »
Tonight We Riot? Nintendo's Latest Video Game Is a Leftist Fantasy
*Dan Musil, Katherine Gibson, Marcelo Vieta, Stephen Healy* *Politics, * The new video game is a seductively simplistic answer for anyone serious about worker liberation in 2020. “In a world where the wealthy elite control the media, elections and lives of working people, we’re faced with two choices – accept it or fight for something better.” That’s the premise of Tonight We Riot, a new video game for touted as a leftist response to the “neocon fantasies” like Call of Duty.

The Pandemic is No Climate Change Panacea
*Larissa Basso* *Climate Change, World* Relatively small and temporary changes should not be mistaken for the COVID-19 pandemic actually helping to fix climate change. The global COVID-19 quarantine has meant less air pollution in cities and clearer skies. Animals are strolling through public spaces, and sound pollution has diminished, allowing us to hear the birds sing. But these relatively small and temporary changes should not be mistaken for the COVID-19 pandemic actually helping to fix climate change. Quite the contrary: the pandemic that made the world stop offers a glimps... more »

Mapping the China Debate
President Trump and Chinese Vice Premier Liu He sign the U.S. China Phase One Trade Agreement, Jan. 15, 2020, in the East Room of the White House. (Official White House Photo by Shealah Craighead) The debate over U.S. foreign policy toward China is often boiled down into the usual hawk-versus-dove metaphor. Hawks see U.S.-China great power competition as requiring a more aggressive posture, while doves worry about the downsides of an adversarial relationship. But this dualist frame glosses over the fact that neither camp has a shared set of views. Rather, both hawks and doves cont... more »
The Deterrent Threat of a Vetoed War Powers Resolution
President Trump signs an Executive Order placing further sanctions on Iran in the Oval Office. (Official White House Photo by Joyce N. Boghosian) On May 6, President Trump vetoed a joint resolution that would have curtailed his ability to use force against the Islamic Republic of Iran. While the measure had significant support in Congress—passing 55 to 45 in the Senate and 227 to 186 in the House—a veto override attempt unsurprisingly failed. From a purely legal perspective, the nearly omnipotent “imperial presidency” would seem to be as strong as ever. Presidential action, howeve... more »

How They Deal With Their Enemies: Liberals and Conservatives
An enmity with the liberals is dangerous in the short-term; an enmity with the conservatives is dangerous in the longterm. The liberals are a close-knit community, led by elites who have a revolutionary mindset—they view every attack as a direct assault on their elitist leadership and when they identify an enemy, they immediately go into the attack mode; they use the power of the government, mainstream media, community groups, public intellectuals, big businesses, and any other tool or institution which they control, to deliver a decisive punishment on their enemy.

*The death of schools?* By Sean Gabb, a British libertarian Since about 1980, schooling of all kinds has been made into a concerted means of indoctrination. The cultural leftists have captured both the classrooms and the curriculum. I will not elaborate on this claim. Some will argue over terminology, some over the merits of the capture, but hardly anyone denies the broad fact. One of the main functions of modern schooling is to bring about and to protect a radical departure from the old intellectual culture of this country. Much of this departure has been achieved by preaching i... more »

Green spending is seen as less threatening than, say, spending on conventional energy, nuclear, coal and gas with carbon capture and sequestration, since those energy sources are perceived as standard, selfish, big business.
