Popular resistance against the Trump administration in Los Angeles and other cities is a very positive development and one that Black people must embrace. The devolution of Black politics has never been so evident and could not happen at a worse moment. While the crisis of legitimacy accelerates, and provides opportunities for movement politics, many Black people have declared themselves to be uninterested in political engagement or even worse, to be in solidarity with state oppression.

With his veto earlier this month of legislation to study reparations for the descendants of enslaved Africans, Maryland Governor Wes Moore, a Democrat, signaled two things: first, he intends to seek his party’s nomination for the White House in 2028; and secondly, he plans to redeploy the discredited strategy of appealing to white voters by distancing his campaign from African Americans.

The Deep State Has Used the NY Times to Announce Its Withdrawal from Washington’s Conflict with RussiaMy guess is that the Deep State has decided to abandon the conflict and is most likely the author of the Times’ article.

Wildfires in California replicate the massive fire storms in the boreal forest in Canada and Siberia, the lungs of the earth. Our addiction to fossil fuel has ignited an age of fire. The apocalyptic wildfires that have erupted in theborealforest inSiberia, the Russian Far East and Canada, climate scientistsrepeatedlywarned, would inevitably move southwards as rising global temperatures created hotter, more fire-prone landscapes.

A world body like the United Nations should have the power to enforce its resolutions and impose sanctions on the offending countries regardless of how powerful they are. No country should be allowed to continue committing crimes against humanity with impunity. The world should unite and act quickly to stop such aggression. The simple majority decision is all that it should take to isolate and punish the criminal country. This ability is woefully lacking in the current United Nations.

This is the last chapter of the genocide. It is the final, blood-soaked push to drive the Palestinians from Gaza. No food. No medicine. No shelter. No clean water. No electricity. Israel is swiftly turning Gaza into a Dantesque cauldron of human misery where Palestinians are being killed in their hundreds and soon, again, in their thousands and tens of thousands, or they will be forced out never to return. The final chapter marks the end of Israeli lies. The lie of the two-state solution.

In early January, Donald Trump Jr.’s private plane landed on a snowy airfield in Greenland. There was little fanfare upon his arrival, but his 14 million social-media fans were certainly tagging along. “Greenland coming in hot…well, actually really really cold!!!” President Trump’s eldest son captioned a video he posted on X.

Answering the Clarion Call for action, protesters across the country on February 17 demonstrated at City Halls and State Capitols in a nationwide “Not My President Day” by calling for people power in stopping the illegal and unconstitutional power grab of the U.S. government that Trump and “second president” Musk have orchestrated.
