On the show this week, Chris Hedges talks to journalist and author Matt Taibbi about the rapidly disintegrating media landscape and the consequences of that disintegration. Taibbi has been following developments since Twitter and Facebook blocked a New York Post story about a cache of emails reportedly belonging to Democratic nominee Joe Biden's son Hunter, with Twitter blocking the New York Post out of its own account for over a week. The overt censorship is emblematic of the widening and dangerous partisan divide into information that hurts or promotes one political faction over...

Sophia Lukatya is a Chicago Public Schools teacher. She organizes with the Chicago Teachers Union and is a member of Democratic Socialists of America. During the Lift The Ban Coalition’s protests in Daley Plaza this August, Lukatya was one of a dozen housing activists who were arrested in the week-long occupation.

What Trump And Biden Get Wrong About North Korea

But this is a false dichotomy. Meeting or not meeting with the North Korean leader hasn’t been the failure of U.S. policy. And more pressure and sanctions will not convince North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons arsenal. To make any substantial progress, the next administration must take a wholly new approach to achieve a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula. Most urgently, the next administration should officially end the Korean War with a peace agreement. Contrary to the belief held by most Americans, the 70-year-old war never officially ended and was only halted by a fragile ceas...

Charlie Hebdo, Islam, Racism, and Everything Else America Gets Wrong about France
François Valentin, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*François Valentin* *Security, Europe* [image: Reuters] The pundits and politicians who have been calling out an alleged “state-sponsored Islamophobia” should be wary about joining their voices with a chorus of unsavory international actors who have launched brutal attacks against Macron for his alleged Islamophobic policies. Samuel Paty’s horrific death has been a moment of deep reckoning for France. Paty was beheaded by a young Islamist Chechen refugee for having shown Charlie Hebdo cartoons of Mohamed during a class on free speech. These tragic events happened some five years ...
Senkaku Islands: Could the U.S. Military and Japan Really Land Troops?
James Holmes, The National Interest - 10 hours ago
*James Holmes* *Senkaku Islands, Asia* Let’s speculate about what a deployment to the uninhabited islets—which adjoin Japan’s Ryukyu Islands but constitute an archipelago distinct from the Ryukyus—might look like. Start with the extreme case. If troops alighted on the Senkakus, would they build a permanent base? Doubtful—though less doubtful than in the past. U.S. troops landing on the Senkaku Islands? Could be. Last week Lieutenant General Kevin Schneider, the commander of U.S. forces based in Japan, launched the U.S.-Japanese exercise Keen Sword 21 with words to that effect. K...

This week, people are planning protests across the nation beginning the day after the election.

Trump will fail if he tries because the ruling class has clearly shifted its support to Biden. Professor Adrienne Pine explains this in her analysis of the opposition to Trump. Others such as issues-based groups, coalitions and community groups are planning to take the streets no matter what the outcome of the election is. This is good news... The post Coun...

If America is systemically racist why are white people pretending to be Black?
trinko, Conversations about the obvious - 9 hours ago
Democrats keep telling us that American is systemically racist and Blacks in America are going through hell. Yet we don't hear about Black people trying to pass for white like they did in the Democrat run South. The Democrats made the South a racist hell hole with the Jim Crow laws and cops being able to brutalize and kill Blacks with impunity and the KKK running roughshod. To avoid that Blacks who weren't very dark skinned tried to pass as whites. Even in the 1970s I had a friend in college who was a Jew but very dark skinned who was concerned people would think he was Black. S...
