  • Washington Projects Its Drug Problem onto Latin America: Narco-State Myth Used to Attack Venezuela

    A big Cadillac limo with Jersey plates was parked down the block. Few locals in East Harlem even owned cars, let alone new ones. Curious, I asked the street kids what’s up. They casually explained that the mafioso comes weekly to collect their drug money. Later, I found a playground, which served as a veritable […]

    There Was a Boat. That Was the Only True Part.

    This was what the President of the United States initially lied: “Earlier this morning, on my Orders, U.S. Military Forces conducted a kinetic strike against positively identified Tren de Aragua Narcoterrorists in the SOUTHCOM area of responsibility.

  • From Manufactured Scandals to AI Misinformation

    FAKE NEWS This section chronicles some of the most pressing examples of disinformation and fake news from the previous two weeks. I define fake news as information that appears to be real news but is baseless, inaccurate, misleading, or false. Fake news isn’t just a headline problem — it’s a cultural crisis.

  • Refugee Dunghills: Australia Makes Another Nauru Deal

    Over the last two decades, Australia has made a name for itself by pursuing barbaric policies towards refugees and asylum seekers arriving by sea. Priding these moves as noble and humanitarian, cruelty born of kindness, these have entailed attacking the right to seek asylum guaranteed under the United Nations Refugee Convention of 1951 and the […]

  • Trump’s Assault Upon the United Nations is at Odds with U.S. Public Opinion

    If one examines Donald Trump’s approach to world affairs since his entry into American politics, it should come as no surprise that he has worked to undermine the United Nations. The United Nation is based on international cooperation, as well as on what the UN Charter calls “the equal rights … of nations large and […]

  • Violence in Costa Rica and the Rush to Blame Nicaragua

    Traditionally regarded as safe for visitors, Costa Rica has recently become Central America’s second most dangerous country, with 400 homicides recorded so far this year. The violence is attributed to an epidemic of drug-related crime, as the country has become a major staging post for narcotics smuggled to Europe. Costa Rica just detained a former […]

  • The Spectacle of a Police State: This Is Martial Law Without a Formal Declaration of War

    In Trump’s America, the bar for martial law is no longer constitutional—it’s personal. What is unfolding right now in California—with hundreds of Marines deployed domestically; thousands of National Guard troops federalized; and military weapons, tactics and equipment on full display—is intended to intimidate, distract and discourage us from pulling back the curtain on the reality of […]

  • Trump’s Palantir-Powered Surveillance Is Turning America Into a Digital Prison

    Call it what it is: a panopticon presidency. President Trump’s plan to fuse government power with private surveillance tech to build a centralized, national citizen database is the final step in transforming America from a constitutional republic into a digital dictatorship armed with algorithms and powered by unaccountable, all-seeing artificial intelligence. This isn’t about national security. It’s about control. […]

    Scary Thoughts from Selidov

    The war in Ukraine will be over, and those who died will not be remembered as heroes or liberators. “Our own children will curse us,” said one of the participants in the Ukrainian army’s escape from the town of Selidov in the DNR. He witnessed extrajudicial executions and torture of civilians – old men, women, […]

  • Trump Targets Migrants amid Human Trafficking Allegation

    Donald Trump has launched an aggressive campaign that targets Latino migrants – particularly Venezuelans – as scapegoats in a broader geopolitical agenda. Bolstered through a controversial alliance with the Salvadoran president, Trump has overseen mass deportations, detentions in Guantánamo Bay and El Salvador’s notorious CECOT prison, and invoked 18th-century war powers to justify these actions.
