Russiagate is already easily refuted, but it seems like the hits (i.e. the truth) keep comin! New evidence shows collusion between social media and the US government to label anything they don't like as Russian bots - which of course turns out were neither Russian nor bots. Discuss.
Following the murder of a forest defender in the Atlanta forest, Dekalb County Police are doing their utmost to paint defenders as terrorists - because apparently sitting in a tree house is absolutely terrifying to our brave lads in blue.
At times, we should just be more like the French. As the fight against Macron's proposed pension "reform" continues, French workers are quite literally siezing power.
PLUS news and context from Israel/Palestine and Memphis.

Well it's MLK day and we just wouldn't know how to celebrate it without racists, capitalists, and imperialists misquoting the Civil Rights leader in some of the most absurd and twisted ways.
Meanwhile, Sweden is desperate to get in on US empire's game, even going so far as to suggest that flying a flag could be an act of terrorism.
A massive arctic drilling project is planned because you know, 'Murica.
PLUS Courts side with Palestinian rights activists & tens of thousands rush to a small German hamlet to stop its destruction.

Here's some good news to start the year off on a high note! Formerly imprisoned Brazilian president Lula is back in office! Bolsonaro snuck off to Florida with his tail between his legs and the never-president-of-Venezuela-but-called-president-by-uncle-sam Guaido has finally been ousted by his own party.
Meanwhile in the bad news department (I mean you knew we were going to), Big Oil is behind some of the most aggressive plastics recycling campaigns, and surprise surprise, they're not making a dent in recycling plastic - not to mention the bigger culprit of new plastics production.
PLUS a killer cop actually brought to justice, capitalism's slavery and Lee dives into the poisoned wells of our fine nation.

Railroad workers were dealt a serious (but unsurprising) blow by Biden and Congress who decided to make a potential rail strike illegal rather than give them the basic human rights they're asking for. So, should they call Biden's bluff?
Matt Taibbi has recently dug into Twitter's history of censoring those the ruling class take issue with - not least of all those sharing provable facts about Biden's son.
DeSantis isn't just a right-wing extremist, he's a veteran torturer and war criminal.
PLUS NYC Mayor Adams wants to force every "mentally ill" person into hospitals against their will.

Imperialism isn't just something the US does 'over there.' It's very much a home game. Like when predominantly black inmates in Philadelphia were used as guinea pigs for chemical experimentation for decades, then told they couldn't file a lawsuit because it was too long ago, then the city 'apologized' for using their bodies as toxic waste sites.
Meanwhile, homicidal extremists clearly linked to torturous murder get protection from the US government - because oil.
We don't often ask folks to call politicians - but this is a time we do. And Lee will tell you why and how calling for clemency for death row prisoners works. Kevin Johnson is scheduled to be executed on November 29th. Call the governor's office at (573) 751-3222 to demand clemency!
Apparently some confused missiles from Ukraine ended up in Poland - and in classic corporate media fashion, they blamed Russia without any evidence, a move that thanks to the NATO alliance could have set off World War 3.
PLUS a BIG win for ecosystems and indigenous tribes, Lee takes on a lopsided UN vote, and MORE!

It's ok if you're not shocked anymore - but never lose your disgust and disdain for the war machine.
For instance, if you've been following the show and know the context of the proxy war in Ukraine, you won't be surprised to learn that the UK built a 'terror army' in order to better poke the Russian bear.
You may also not be shocked by the fact that FOUR weapons contractors got more money from the US government than 300 million+ Americans.
It's not all that shocking anymore. But it needs to always be disgusting.
PLUS calling out war criminals, green capitalism, and digging to our rooted connections to nature without approrpriating indigenous cultures!

These Midterms are the most important EVER! Just like the last time! So it begs the question, do midterms ever matter?
Meanwhile in the UK, the new boss, same as the old boss (but richer if you can believe it) proves to us that it doesn't matter what shade of skin or what gender someone has because people of all stripes can be imperialist, capitalist douche canoes.
PLUS updates on the egregious miscarriage of justice for Mumia abu Jamal, "bee" prepared for some direct action, and MORE!

As Chris Hedges wrote, we are an empire in decline - and nations outside of ours can see the writing on the wall perhaps far more than we oursleves can. In this big move, a recent OPEC meeting tolls a bell for Uncle Sam...
Saying the quiet part loud, EU's top foreign-policy official, Josep Borrell admitted that Europe's prosperity is based on cheap Chinese labor and cheap Russian energy...a golden age now waned.
PLUS what's going on in Haiti, New Jersey stands up to big oil & MORE!

Sometimes the internet is a beautiful place. Like that time just recently when Zelensky tried to hide the N*zi symbols on his guard's uniforms but oh the internets saved that little gem!
Meanwhile, what do John Stewart, Mickey Mouse and a N*zi have in common?
The EU parliament is pushing to divest from deforestation. Is this as good as it sounds or is it yet another false solution? Or maybe both...
A railroad strike has been averted - for now. These workers hold $2bn a DAY in their hands as a looming strike is still very much in the cards.
PLUS Winston Churchill get his due.

Folks in Baltimore found themselves on the "boil your water" advisory list as the disgusting state of US water quality becomes ever more clear...unlike the water.
Meanwhile, as much as we spend on military in one year is what we need to spend to completely overhaul our water system - over the next 25 years.
As people in the US struggle to find water to drink, thousands in Pakistan struggle to stay afloat in the torrential floods. US media has barely reported on this, and has certainly failed to mention the US' role in this catastrophe.
The Queen of England is dead. Here's a short list of why millions around the world would line up just to dance on her grave...
A bit to the east, Zelensky is quite literally selling Ukraine to the highest bidders - no really, he opened up the NYSE as part of a new project to sell off Ukrainian assets to foreign investors.
And finally, Biden is asking for $47 billion in pandemic relief. Totally unrelatedly, Biden has sent about $40 billion to Ukraine.
