MICHAEL SMITH—In Teddy Roosevelt’s eyes, socialism is intrinsically evil and the subjugation of workers by corporations entirely legitimate, although it is “incumbent upon the man with whom things have prospered to be in a certain sense the keeper of his brother with whom life has gone hard.”

Trump-obsessed Democrats busily glorifying scumbag John Bolton
10 minutes readPATRICE GREANVILLE—Please watch Rachel Bevins in this delightfully lucid denunciation of the sham represented by the Democrats’ vindication of John Bolton, and how the people should not pick a dog in this fight as both Trump and Bolton remain indistinguishable in their repugnant criminality. BTW, Rachel’s page on Facebook was deleted arbitrarily by FB about two years ago, charging her with “inauthentic behavior” (absurd) and “spam” even more absurd since Rachel basically published her own work.

JOSE GUADALUPE ARGUELLO—“Few imagined that he would become Brazil’s president. But as after Obama came Trump, so did Bolsonaro come after Lula,” the La Octava host continued. “So, it is wrong to underestimate people like Gilberto Lozano, not so much because somewhere he may have hidden grandeur, but rather because if it goes badly for this [AMLO] government, or if they are not able to meet the expectations of certain sectors such as the middle class, eventually an ultra-right, anti-system figure could grow strong, and get a stroke of luck”.

Dutch Government Outright Lies about MH17, to Blame Russia
22 minutes readERIC ZUESSE—The U.S. is a bipartisan dictatorship. Is that opinion? It is all documented, in the links. This (like the U.S. Government’s having been behind Ukraine’s downing of the MH17) is therefore still news instead of history; but it remains news only because it still remains hidden in the U.S. and its allied regimes; it is NOT “opinion.” It will remain news as long as the U.S.-and-allied blackout of the evidence remains in effect. And the U.S. dictatorship has long been not only domestic but international as well, a dictatorship over what it calls its ‘allies’ and even over some countries which claim to to be ‘neutral’.

MoA—Pompeo is suggesting that Iran will spend tens of millions on planes, fly them unopposed through the radar coverage of several countries, to let Iranian Kamikaze pilots crash them into some temple in Nepal. This does not make any sense. No foreign politician will be impressed by this ‘argument’. Pompeo’s tweet is for consumption at home.
