Talking Points Ep. 2: When A Coincidence Isn't One

Well of course this story has gotten weirder. First, sadly the death toll of this attack in New Orleans is now 15 people, with 30 injured. But some things aren’t adding up, and then there are other things that have been added, so you know…I have questions. Like on Wednesday, the media was reporting that the FBI claimed that a black foreign terrorist organization’s flag was found in the truck that Jabbar drove through the crowd. Yesterday I called it an ISIS flag because I did see it described as...

Talking Points Ep. 1: Don’t Look At New Orleans In A Vacuum

What Do The Chickens Bring Back With Them When They Come Home To Roost? Don’t Look At New Orleans In A Vacuum The FBI is investigating the attack as an act of terrorism and said it does not believe the driver acted alone. An Islamic State group flag was found on the vehicle’s trailer hitch, the FBI said. There is much to learn still from the early morning New Year’s Day vehicular attack on a crowded Bourbon Street in New Orleans this first day of 2025. Although details are still being released, ...

We Can Defeat The Anti-Trans Bigots By Out-Organizing Them

We can absolutely defeat the anti-trans bigots who are mad that transgender people drink their crummy beer (there are better beers out there, trans friends, you're better than Bud Light), conservative organizations trying to put trans youth and people back in the closet in public schools, and liberals who are all too willing to compromise with the people who want to take away the human rights of people who are not like them! We have to OUT-ORGANIZE ALL THESE PEOPLE, AND WE CAN DO IT! Because whe...

Biden's Document Scandal Could Be Even Bigger Than Trump's

The discovery of classified White House documents in Joe Biden's civilian post-administration office could cause a stink for him, especially if those documents contain evidence of US imperialistic plans for regime change in Iran, Ukraine, and collusion with the UK to persecute Julian Assange. There is definitely something there here...

The GOP Shows Up Progressives Again

The saga of the empty Speaker's chair is over for the GOP-controlled House of Representatives. But lessons abound for the so-called Progressive Caucus, the Congressional Black Caucus, and every alleged "progressive" in the Democratic Party. The GOP just showed up Progressives on what should be done with power once you have it, if Progressives really wanted to win anything for the people. But of course, they won't listen and learn because they were never in it to give power to the people. They we...

The Legacy Of Wounded Knee Will Not Be Buried

Until the United States does right by Indigenous Peoples, nothing good will come to it. And the continued resistance of those Original People will never allow the legacy of atrocities like Wounded Knee to be buried and forgotten.

The US-Backed Eight Year Fascist War In Ukraine The US Media Ignores

Everyone is appalled at Russia allegedly invading Ukraine without provocation...except the US and NATO did plenty of provoking, and they armed and legitimized neo-nazis to do it. And the eight-year civil war that resulted is completely ignored by US media.

Do Not Erase The Clear Line Between MLK, Nkruma, Lumumba And African Liberation

On the anniversary of Patrice Lumumba's assassination, let us not forget that the great Pan-African leaders who were killed or deposed by western forces have also tried to erase the connection between Martin Luther King, Jr. and these great men and their movements. Never forget that they are all connected in a single garment of struggle and destiny.

Fort Negro, Seminole Nation, Mankato Massacre And How This History Informs The Need For An Uprising Of A Proletariat Nation

In remembering the atrocoties committed against Africans enslaved in this land and the Native peoples the land was stolen from, we have to focus on the victories in that shared struggle against white supremacist settler colonialism in this country that were won. Because it was those victories from that shared struggle that led to more brutal repression - true - but that also informs us how we can defeat this system today. We just have to do it as an enormous Proletariat Nation rising up as one.
