Nor will they ever admit the Peacemongers were right.
The Warmongers Will Never Admit They Were Wrong And Will Never Learn From Their Mistakes In their eyes the wars are never wrong, they’re only ever executed incorrectly. US military interventionism can never fail, it can only be failed. www.caitlinjohnst.one/p/the-warmon...

U.S. media (liberal and conservative) blackout on massive protests in Venezuela, thousands in the streets opposing the U.S. terror, kidnapping, bombing and murders. Don't look for coverage in NYT, NPR, Fox, CNN. Capitalist legacy media is censoring it. Widely reported in Latin American media.
Venezuela's oil is "among the dirtiest oils in the world to produce when it comes to global warming," says U of CA Prof. Paasha Mahdavi. U.S.ians who cheer Trump's focus on stealing another nation's oil cheer speeding up their own demise on an already burning planet. Could they be any more obtuse?
President Trump wants more U.S. oil companies to "go in" to Venezuela. But there are economic, historical, and climate reasons that may not be easy. Here's what you need to know about oil in Venezuela.

Both parties have been long beholden to AIPAC, both funded genocide. This is why thousands voted for Dr. Jill Stein. Highly principled, she took not one cent from corrupt donors. Trump today being really awful does not mask or negate the Democrats many mistakes. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/01/o...
We need to understand that the constitution never intended to represent the working class, all races, both sexes - the majority. And it still doesn't. open.substack.com/pub/seymourh...
“We can’t give weapons to everybody all around the world,” Mr. Parnell said. “We have to look out for America and defending our homeland and our troops around the world.” Imagine how improved the world would be W/O U.S. weapons and bases around the world. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/02/u...
