This is Bunny, who got her name because when she was a tiny kitten—and she was a VERY tiny kitten— she resembled a “dust bunny,” one of those lumps of grey dust that you find under a heavy piece of furniture that you can’t easily get under to dust. Bunny matured to a whopping 6.5 pounds as an adult. Because she was so small, she was always at or near the bottom of the “peck order” of my multi-cat household.

ANDRE VLTCHEK—Anti North Korean propaganda is so pervasive, so vicious, and so obsessive that it easily outstrips the anticommunist vitriol dispensed to other nations designated as “enemies” by the perennially sanctimonious “indispensable nation”. Such unrelenting hybrid war by the empire’s minions is designed not only to keep the victimised nation isolated and in penury, but to serve notice to other nations that anyone defying Uncle Sam’s diktats is also liable to find itself in similar sorry circumstances. In any case, here’s perhaps the best and most lucid denunciation and rebuttal of the arch-hypocritical effluvia emanating from the US disinformation machine and that of its vassal states. It was penned by our editor emeritus André Vltchek.

EDWARD CURTIN—Try to look ahead and see if you can see what’s been coming for decades. Try to climb higher and see the beautiful things that Heaven bears, where we came forth, and once more see the stars and raise a banner of resistance to the King of Hell and all his henchmen. For they are here, and working hard as usual, and indifference will only strengthen their resolve. Don’t be deceived by these digital demons. They want to make you think they don’t exist. They wish to get you to suspend your disbelief and get lost in the endless looping movie they have created to conceal their real machinations.

CAITLIN JOHNSTONE—In a recent interview with The Wall Street Journal, Mathias Döpfner, CEO of the German publisher Axel Springer, said that Politico staffers will be required to adhere to a set of principles which include “support for a united Europe, Israel’s right to exist and a free-market economy, among others.”
“These values are like a constitution, they apply to every employee of our company,” Mr. Döpfner told WSJ. People with a fundamental problem with any of these principles “should not work for Axel Springer, very clearly,” he said.
I mean, how refreshing is that? How often does a billionaire corporation buy up a media property and just straightforwardly tell you they’re going to be using it to push propaganda?

PAUL EDWARDS—Under Hitler, Nazis became, as was promised, more repressive, politically punishing, and viciously racist, murdering leadership of the parties that had opposed them, the Communists—who had gotten nearly as many votes—and Social Democrats. With those parties decapitated, organized resistance ceased in a nation divided between a minority supporting Hitler and everyone else.
