  • The US Is Pushing So Many Regime Change Agendas It’s Hard To Keep Up

    It’s just incredible how quickly and aggressively the US is advancing longstanding agendas of global conquest under the Trump administration. Now they’re racing to take out Cuba. The US president has signed an executive order to impose new tariffs on countries that supply oil to Cuba, even indirectly, which is expected to dramatically increase the pressure […]

  • Beyond “We the People”: Rethinking Democracy

    At its best, democracy implies collective self-rule: the idea that people should have real power over the conditions of their lives. Yet democracy has often functioned less as a lived practice and more as a legitimizing language—invoked to authorize states, consolidate authority, or justify exclusion behind claims of popular consent. I am not a historian, […]

  • ‘The Weak Must Suffer’

    The empty UN Security Council Chamber in New York City (Wikipedia) These are exceptional times. The United States has been threatening to take over Greenland, an aggressive move against Europe. Now, and only now, are political leaders and compliant news media publicly acknowledging that the ‘international rules-based order’ is no more. Of course, it was […]

  • U.S. Racist Immigration Policy Toward Haiti Reinforces Imperialism and Weakens Popular Sovereignty

    On November 26th, 2025, the Trump administration terminated Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haiti using nearly identical language to the TPS cancellations earlier this year for displaced Venezuelans and affecting upward of 353,000 Haitian migrants. In both cases, the Department of Homeland Security claimed that continued protections were “not in the national security or foreign […]

  • The Difference Between The US Empire And The British Empire

    The difference between people who supported the British Empire and people who support the US Empire is that those who supported the British Empire knew they were supporting an empire. Someone who supported the British Empire’s acts of mass military slaughter around the world did so because they supported the Crown and wanted His Majesty […]

  • Imperial Double Standards: Warfare for Venezuela and Welfare for Argentina

    Venezuela’s Bolivarian Revolution has been in the vanguard of the Global South. In contrast, President Javiar Milei’s government in Argentina represents the logical, though absurd, consequence of extreme neoliberalism, which he calls “anarcho-capitalism.” Western Hemispheric geopolitics reflect the weakening of US hegemony and an emerging multipolarity, especially with China’s entry as a major regional trading […]
