So Trump is an idiot. That's not news. But what is news is how remarkably quickly the economy is tanking thanks to his "tariffs for 'Murica" plan. And here at the bottom, you and I will feel the greatest weight of this crash while the world looks on, watching the US just beat the shit out of iteslf for no apparent reason. 

PLUS some words from Richard Wolff on Econ 101 and thes times, the Panama Canal purchase on hold, and more!

2024 was the deadliest year on record in a lot of ways, but not least of all for migrants. A new report by the UN shows highlights violent anti-immigration policies as a global terror, and one that'll only become more deadly thanks to compounding factors like climate chaos and "war."

Speaking of deadly, Israel has targeted and murdered more journalists in a continued rampage not only against all Palestinians but against the truth of their genocide. 

In other Israel-related news, a shadowy geoengineering company wants to spray shit in our skies to supposedly combat climate change. I'm sure we all feel good in their hands.

The genocide that didn't really end has begun again. Israel may also be planning a ground invasion. 

Meanwhile, here at home, the cruelty of ICE lays bare the terrorism and foundational white supremacy of the United States. To be clear, Trump's presidency is terrifying and it is also not a new boil on the sick body politic - he's a continuation, a leveling up of a grotesque system that made someone like him possible. 

And what level of fascism is it to target intellectuals who dare think outside the confines of your political decrees?

Dems aren't the opposition, but they want you to think they are, and more importantly they want you to know their "opposition" is the only kind that's acceptable. 

Meanwhile, DOGE's claims of "saving money" are b.s. And even if they did manage to save some money, you and I aren't seeing it. 

The ports of the world are being bought up, mostly by one asset management firm. To quote the great movie Network, there are no countries, only corporations. 

It doesn't seem like there's much Israel could do to piss off Uncle Sam. But what if it started to cut ties to the military industrial complex? Would the US love them without their addiciton to our weapons?

PLUS our power isn't in consumerism, It's in our labor, and the ability to withhold it. AND MORE!

The so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is off to a helluva start, firing everybody from park rangers to nuclear scientists. Is this bad? Yup. Is it as bad as liberal America would have you believe? Nope. 

Speaking of not what liberal America would have you think, DEI wasn't the white (or non-white) knight in shining armor we were supposed to take it for. 

Something that IS as awesome as it seems is how folks are outsmarting ICE by knowing their rights.

US empire has decided not to push for NATO membership for Ukraine, thereby back peddling the proxy war against Russia. 

Meanwhile, Trump n friends are sending 5,000 troops to the border bc the Gestapo (CBP/ICE) need support in their human rights violations. And private prisons stand to make even more bank as detentions of migrants and refugees are expected to skyrocket. 

Violence in the West Bank is at levels not seen since the last Intifada in 2000. And there are some striking similarities between the horrific imprisonment of Palestinians and the prison industrial complex here in the land of the free.

This final season of America is a doozy! But at least we have humor. 

Some of the most amazing utterances were made in Congress the other day during the RFK, Jr. hearings. 

Meanwhile, the Laken Riley Act has passed which is yet another reveal of the deep anti-immigrant bipartisan policy of the US. Recent ICE raids include the arrest of Inidgenous peoples, which at first blush might seem ironic but it's really just all part of the same horrific system that violently attacks Indigenous and non-white peoples across all borders.

So the LA fires continue to rage so it seems like a good time to talk about what's fueling them - and we don't mean just climate chaos but the actual fuel on the ground. It might not be what you think it is. (Hint: it's not shrubs)

Meanwhile, up to 30% of the firefighting force is in fact...slave labor.
