  • Fear and Loathing in the City of Westminster

    Fear and Loathing in the City of Westminster

    Our descent into City Airport was like the drop-ship scene in the movie Aliens. The BA CityFlyer Embraer 190, a narrow-body twin-engine airliner, rolled over into a 40-degree bank and started bucking like a mechanical bull. Simulated “chimes” began chiming frantically. Flight attendants bolted for their seats. The German businessman in the seat beside me, […]

  • NYC Drag Marchers: “We’re here, we’re queer, we’re coming for your children!”

    So… participants in NYC’s June 23 “Drag March” chanted: “We’re here, we’re queer, we’re coming for your children!”  (Watch a short clip right here) I get it that, for some of those marchers, this was a tragically failed attempt at “satire” in response to (accurately) being called groomers. For others, it was a legitimate, unabashed […]

  • The Surging Arrogance of Corporatism

    Most heads of giant corporations are drunk with their own power. These corporate CEOs push the envelope in ways that harm defenseless people. They believe they can get away with anything, and they do, with few exceptions. The few corporate crime prosecutions keep declining from Obama to Trump to Biden, due to a settlement-obsessed Department […]

  • Liberal and “Left” Silence on National Security Police State When Used against Trump and His Supporters

    The National Security police state now regards the Democratic Party as a more useful tool to criminalize opposition to US wars and maintain their control over the US government. We see this in the attack on the Uhuru Movement as being in the pay of Russia, in the imprisonment and torture of Julian Assange, in […]

  • Daniel Ellsberg: The Establishment’s Whistleblower

    In 1972 Stanley K. Sheinbaum, chairman of the Pentagon Papers Fund, wrote with a hot pertinence that remains striking (at this time Julian Assange is facing grave prospects of being extradited to the United States) that both Daniel Ellsberg and Anthony Russo had “struck a blow for us all when they gave the Pentagon Papers […]

  • FBI Make-Work Entrapment Schemes: Creating Criminals in Order to Arrest Them

    FBI Make-Work Entrapment Schemes: Creating Criminals in Order to Arrest Them

    Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. — Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil, Aphorism 146 We’re not dealing with a government that exists to serve its people, protect their liberties and ensure their happiness. Rather, we are the unfortunate victims of the diabolical machinations […]

  • The Frankenstein Chatbots are Erupting

    Rick Claypool is a level-headed policy analyst and number-cruncher for Public Citizen, who is known for reporting the decline in corporate crime enforcement with each succeeding Presidency. (Biden less than Trump). His latest report (with Cheyenne Hunt) clearly shows him in an unusually agitated state. Its title is “‘Sorry in Advance!’ Rapid Rush to Deploy Generative […]

  • The Appalling Silence of the Good People

    Time itself is neutral; it can be used either destructively or constructively. More and more I feel that the people of ill will have used time much more effectively than have the people of good will. We have to repent in this generation not merely for the hateful words and actions of bad people, but […]

  • Uneasy Locations: The Russian Embassy Site in Canberra

    They think we are mugs – and it’s insulting. It’s all fine for politicians to be swimming, swerving and tossing about in the goo of paranoia that is surveillance, chatting to the ghost called foreign interference; but to expect the rest of the citizenry to be morons is rather poor form. But the formula has […]

  • Exposing Israel’s Abuse of Palestinian Child Detainees

    Exposing Israel’s Abuse of Palestinian Child Detainees

    CJPME is proud to publish its latest analysis, “Heartbreaking Disparity: Child Detainees in Canada vs. Israel.” The report exposes the cruel and discriminatory treatment that Palestinian child detainees face in Israel’s military court system, and provides a call for action to protect and uphold their rights. The report is unique in how it compares Canada’s […]
