  • How Censorship and Smears Are Chipping Away at Democracy and Freedom

    How Censorship and Smears Are Chipping Away at Democracy and Freedom

    Do Journalists Protect or Harm Democracy? Almost half (45%) of teens in a recent survey by The News Literacy Project said journalists harm democracy. Only 56% believed reporters value fairness and accuracy. 80% concluded that news content is subjective, and nearly 70% thought press outlets intentionally add bias to their coverage. The cynicism illustrated in […]

  • Why Western Hegemony is Over

     The tariff truce between China and the United States is set to end in August. What do you forecast will happen after that? And what will happen to trade relations between China and the US for the rest of US President Donald Trump’s second term? The United States learned that it can’t impose its will on China.

  • The Inevitable Souring: Elon Musk Falls Out with Donald Trump

    Sandpit politics is rarely edifying, and grown toddlers taking their fists to each other is unlikely to interest. But when they feature US President Donald Trump and the world’s wealthiest man, the picture alters. Disputes are bound to be on scale, rippling in their consequences.

    The Gong Show, Jerry Springer, Maury Povitch, Howard Stern, Seinfeld

    And we thought the Borscht Belt had died out. We have it in the corridors of power, in the White Man’s House, in every corner of media and the law. To take this to its silliness level: The name comes from borscht, a soup of Ukrainian origin (made with beets as the main ingredient, giving it a deep reddish-purple […]

  • Meta Shifts Right: Big Tech, Project 2025, and the Assault on DEI

    When Mark Zuckerberg terminated Meta’s diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs for hiring and training employees and procuring suppliers in January 2025, he forged “inroads with the incoming Trump administration,” abandoned Meta’s founding ethos of open innovation, and dramatically realigned how the tech giant will now do business, as critics like Bärí A.

    The Tragic Tale of a Flower that Wilted too Soon (Part 2 of 2)

    Ruttie Jinnah and M.A. Jinnah IMAGE/Dawn Read Part 1. Drugs Ruttie’s rush to dash off to Paris was to get drugs. Mrs. Naidu’s letters from Paris and New York to Padmaja make that clear.

  • Trump Heads for War Against Some Nations, Alienation Against Others

    Trump Heads for War Against Some Nations, Alienation Against Others

    U.S. President-Elect Donald Trump is heading America towards very hot wars against China, Russia, and Iran, and for rather cold wars against Mexico, Canada, Europe, and Japan. The difference from Biden-Harris is unclear with regard to the hot wars — Trump has picked a team who overall are as neoconservative as the existing team — […]

  • The Numbing Election

    Before radio waves vibrated in Calvin Coolidge’s 1924 campaign, voters had scarce knowledge of candidates in presidential elections.

The rapid growth of communications brought the faces and words of candidates into everyone’s living rooms; it […]
