How today’s elites manipulate the working class in America
In the past, Russia would send communist agitators to provoke the wrath of the working class. Nowadays, they don’t have to. The ruling class in the West is happy to carry out agitation. Traditionally, communist agitators (preferring the term “organizers”) were trying to build class consciousness among workers. They emphasized the idea of the working class as a separate entity, distinct from the affluent managers, capitalists and aristocrats who occupied the higher rungs of the social ladder. They then nurture the idea of class grievances – the ways in which…
Read MoreJohn Kerry just reminded us how not serious he is to be a statesman
To make the obvious, John Kerry is not a serious person. This is not a reference to surfing, flip-flops, or his other classic campaign slip from the past days. With Ukraine suffering death and destruction at the hands of Vladimir Putin’s army, Kerry shared his real concern about the conflict: the climate. “War is the last thing you need in terms of a united effort to try to deal with the climate challenge,” Kerry told a Reuters reporter. He then denounced the “emissions” consequences of the Russian invasion, adding: “You…
Read MoreMisery on the border as Ukrainians flee Russian invasion
in Ukraine. I slept late after writing all night and woke up this morning to the sound of a woman nervously knocking on the hotel door. I had slept during the missile strikes which were located five miles from the hotel. In the middle of the night, the Russian Air Force blew up the runway of the old Soviet airport outside the city. A veteran of the Soviet war in Afghanistan who was staying at the same hotel explained to me that the base had been decommissioned. However, if he…
Read MoreRussia’s invasion exposes US weakness, China’s green lights red
As Russia rolls over Ukraine with the only Western response of increased sanctions, the question arises: Is this the beginning of a new world order, where nations might invade with impunity? More specifically: Would Washington and its allies react differently if the next aggressor was China, and the next target was Taiwan? Like Ukraine, Taiwan is a security partner of the United States not protected by any formal treaty. The Taiwan Relations Act requires the Pentagon to support Taiwan’s efforts to protect itself but does not authorize the US military…
Read MoreSleepy Joe should stop dreaming and face the facts
Most days, President Biden does not appear to be a resident of this planet, let alone this country. But on the eve of Tuesday’s State of the Union address, if he really wants to try to save his administration, if he really wants to help America, if he really wants to raise our country’s standing in the world against rising threats – he needs to stop chasing fantasies and focus on reality. Stop spinning threads about the Green New Deal and tell your party the truth. Without energy independence, the…
Read MoreWith Biden appeased, it’s no wonder Putin thinks now is the time to strike
“One small thing to be thankful for is that DJT is not in the White House while the Ukraine crisis unfolds. He was standing by Russia,” Francis Fukuyama tweeted, author of The End of History and the Last Man. Headline on Eugene Robinson He reads the Washington Post columnWith Biden standing firm, Putin should be wondering: Where is Trump when I need him? You can find similar sentiments from foreign policy experts spread across social media. Sure, even former President Donald Trump’s most ardent opponents should be a little curious…
Read Moreignorant narcissistic celebrities need to be silent about Ukraine
Vladimir Putin’s bloody attack on Ukraine threatens the lives of huge numbers of innocent civilians and troops, and creates a massive humanitarian crisis. But for a diverse group of celebrity narcissists, a redundant phrase if they ever existed, the Russian invasion is hijacked as a brand opportunity, a surefire way to draw attention to themselves and their all-too-vital entertainment ventures. Every day comes another boring ad from a celebrity that overestimates their intelligence or their critical importance to the planet. How dare humans draw attention to their own suffering when…
Read MoreAndrew, be less pathetic and fade away
Rude and pathetic: disgrace the former ruler. Andrew Cuomo makes a comeback by buying a TV ad claiming he was acquitted after he was fired. No doubt it will also demand him to get his Emmy back. “Political attacks won and New York lost a proven leader,” claims the 30-second ad seen by The Post. It highlights the decisions of five local prosecutors not to press charges against Cuomo for sexual harassment – ignoring the fact that these prosecutors (and the association’s Judicial Committee report) confirmed the credibility of Cuomo’s…
Read MoreHow to block Putin’s long-term plan and other comments
From right: Vlad’s plan – and how to stop him For all his caution, Vladimir Putin is somewhat predictable. Victor Davis Hanson argues for American Greatness. his goal? In order to “restore the prestige and power of the former Soviet Union.” How does this work? First, Putin moves toward neighboring former Soviet republics when the world oil price is high, and his coffers are full. So he went to Georgia in 2008 and then to eastern Ukraine and Crimea in 2014. “Second, when we appear weak and eager to appease,…
