  • The Great Election Fraud: Manufactured Choices Make a Mockery of Our Republic

    The Great Election Fraud: Manufactured Choices Make a Mockery of Our Republic

    The U.S. Supreme Court was right to keep President Trump’s name on the ballot. The high court’s decree that the power to remove a federal candidate from the ballot under the Constitution’s “insurrectionist ban” rests with Congress, not the states, underscores the fact that in a representative democracy, the citizenry—not the courts, not the corporations, […]

  • An Approach to Mitigate Poverty and Racism

    Papers advancing critical race theory (CRT) had brought to light the historical intersection of race, society, and law. They also documented the benefits of Whites at the expense, suffering and death of most minorities. However, most conservatives and all right-of-center politicians denied that systemic racism exists. On top of that, the mainstream opinion was that […]

  • Technocensorship: When Corporations Serve As a Front for Government Censors

    Technocensorship: When Corporations Serve As a Front for Government Censors

    Once a government is committed to the principle of silencing the voice of opposition, it has only one way to go, and that is down the path of increasingly repressive measures, until it becomes a source of terror to all its citizens and creates a country where everyone lives in fear. — Harry S. Truman […]

  • Old Problems with the New: Reforming the UN Security Council

    The end of the Second World War was a calamitous catalyst, laying the bricks and mortar for institutions that were always going to look weary, almost comically so, after some decades.  The United Nations was meant to be the umbrella international organisation, covering an eclectic array of bodies that seem, to this day, unfathomably complex.  […]

  • Peace Requires Freedom and Justice

    The mass slaughter of Palestinian civilians by Israel has shaken people throughout the world. It is a brutal, unfathomable expression of hate and violence; systemic genocide, long in the planning, that can only be described as an act of evil. Whilst the Israeli government and their henchmen are the principle perpetrators, they have been supported […]

  • Imperial Venality Defends Itself: Day Two of Julian Assange’s High Court Appeal

    On February 21, the Royal Courts of Justice hosted a second day of carnivalesque mockery regarding the appeal by lawyers representing an ill Julian Assange, whose publishing efforts are being impugned by the United States as having compromised the identities of informants while damaging national security.  Extradition awaits, only being postponed by rearguard actions such […]

  • Identifying Imperial Venality: Day One of Julian Assange’s High Court Appeal

    On February 20, it was clear that things were not going to be made easy for Julian Assange, the WikiLeaks founder who infuriated the US imperium, the national security establishment, and a stable of journalists upset that he had cut their ill-tended lawns.  He was too ill to attend what may well be the final […]

  • COVID-19 Tested Our Commitment to Freedom

    COVID-19 Tested Our Commitment to Freedom

    The remedy is worse than the disease. — Francis Bacon, “Of Seditions and Trouble” in Essayes or Counsels, Civill and Morall The government never cedes power willingly. Neither should we. If the COVID-19 debacle taught us one thing it is that, as Justice Neil Gorsuch acknowledged, “Rule by indefinite emergency edict risks leaving all of […]

  • Delete the Smear Jagmeet, Tell Truth and Help Palestinians

    Jagmeet Singh’s refusal to delete a smear against internationalist, social justice, minded protesters encourages Israel’s genocide. Over 6,000 individuals have requested the NDP leader remove his anti-Palestinian slander, but Singh seems too scared of the fascistic, supremacist, genocide lobby to do what is right. In a bid to deter Israel from slaughtering the 1.5 million Palestinians […]

  • Hostage Nation

    In his Moscow interview, Tucker Carlson also asked the president of the Russian Federation to release a young American citizen convicted of espionage in Russia from imprisonment. Vladimir Putin replied that the man was arrested, tried and convicted by a Russian court of a crime under Russian law, espionage, by secretly receiving classified documents from […]
