Republicans work for the Fortune 500 and brag about it.
Democrats work for the Fortune 500 and lie about it.
The fate of the socialist left is tied
to that of the working class movement—and the last four decades of one-sided class war have had dire consequences for both. The thread linking today’s generation of young workers to U.S. labor’s proud history of class struggle has been effectively broken and must be developed anew. This is a daunting but necessary task for rebuilding the working-class movement. Get the whole story:

Within a matter of months,
the U.S. government seems likely to become the only nation
in the world still rejecting the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights
of the Child. Sometimes called “the most ratified human rights treaty in history,” the Convention has been ratified by 195
nations, leaving the United States and South Sudan as the
only holdouts. South Sudan is expected to move forward
with ratification later this year. But there is no indication
that the United States will approve this children’s defense treaty.
How the US Helped
Much like Al Qaeda, the Islamic State (ISIS) is made-in-the-USA, an instrument of terror designed to divide and conquer the oil-rich Middle
East and to counter Iran’s growing influence in the region.

Create Al Qaeda and ISIS
Much like Al Qaeda, the Islamic State (ISIS) is made-in-the-USA, an instrument of terror designed to divide and conquer the oil-rich MiddleEast and to counter Iran’s growing influence in the region.
The fact that the United States has a long and torrid history of backing terrorist groups will surprise only those who watch the news and ignore history.
...The director of the National Security Agency under Ronald Reagan,
General William Odom recently remarked, “by any measure the U.S. has
long used terrorism. In 1978-79 the Senate was trying to pass a law against international terrorism – in every version they produced, the lawyers said
the U.S. would be in violation.”
