I believe it will be a historic blunder if all the third parties don't rally around Kennedy. When will there be a better chance to hand this kind of defeat to the imperial corporate duopoly--and dramatically lower nuclear tensions, etc etc?

All US railroads should have been nationalized more than a century ago. They are among the earliest pillars of the corporate oligarchy that owns this country.

1st, US stages a coup to install a puppet regime, resulting in the loss of Crimea. Then the US turns the puppet regime into an anti-Russian bastion, prompting an invasion. Then US allies scuttle peace talks to "bleed" Russia. Now they wanna make Ukraine the NordStream patsy. 🇺🇸💀

This I hadn't expected. Asked about the Nord Stream 2 sabotage, Fiona Hill tells me that what she is hearing in the security community is that *Ukraine* could have done it — so neither Russia nor the US 🤯 Read/watch the full interview here:

This is overtly fascist. That's not hyperbole. The real name for the World War 2 fascist Nazi-Italian-Japanese "Axis" was the "Anticommintern Pact" - i.e., the Anti-Communist International.

The US Empire is going to go the way of all empires. The big question is: In trying to forestall the inevitable, will the US Empire start a nuclear war and take human civilization down with it?

This captures so perfectly the geopolitics of the US Empire. The US subsumed the Axis and the British Empire in the post-World War 2 US-led capitalist system, making sure decolonization became neocolonialism.

Read Devil's Chessboard and JFK vs. Allen Dulles to understand Wall Street's role in creating the post-WW2 US empire. If you don't have any ideological blinkers, it's easy to understand the corporate avarice that animates the whole enterprise.

I don't comment too much on--or get as invested in--electoral politics these days, but @RobertKennedyJr is much more anti-imperialist than Bernie or MW. Maybe because the US Empire killed his uncle and then his father...

A good write-up. This is the key point--and neither Trump nor Biden would say this: "It is not too late for us to voluntarily let go of empire and serve peace instead, as a strong and healthy nation."

@sahouraxo They got very bad well before. A little after this epic piece from Pilger, they went full McPravda on Ukraine and Russiagate--which to me indicates just how much importance the empire was placing on Project USkraine or whatever we want to call it.
