The judicial proceedings against Julian Assange give a faux legality to the state persecution of the most important and courageous journalist of our generation.
I feel like a ping-pong ball with Chris's stuff. Today it is a ping... making my head swim in such succinct and welcome recognition of the real problems and the people behind them. But then I will get ponged by Chris... making the arguments that Jan-6 was an insurrection and that Trump supporters are the vile scourge of the earth that must be neutralized.
And so I have to ask... what is this model of leader we expect to combat the WEF oligarchs and their political establishment corporatist power? Where is this person? Where are these people? Joe Biden and Kamala Harris? John Fetterman and Stacey Abrams? We know you Republican anti-Trumpers voted for these types in a fit of TDS. But they are the weak puppets of the very cabal being exercised in this ping piece.
Help me and others understand how you can complain about these big problems in the deep end of the pool while you hold onto the edge and throw poo at those actually swimming in the deep end trying clear up the muck. Because I really don't get it.
Wonderful speech, I still hope that in someones head a light bulb will go on and they will let Julian Assange go ...
For the rest of our terrible problems: I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY MILLIONS ARE NOT DEMONSTRATING FOR REAL CHANGE (or are we like sheep just glaring into space until the bombs fall or the next climate catastrophe hits us ... I guess this is what we are ...)
Who is this "we" who are here to overthrow anything? That's an aspiration but it doesn't exist as an entity. We are gadflies. How about we work on that? I'd call it the Human Survival Party and just get signatures - to create a force.
R2P, which propagandistcally calls itself "Responsibility to Protect", has after Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, and now Ukraine --- and no doubt, in the near future, Russia and China --- will need to pick a new and more honest acronym --- such as R2SW (Right to Sell Weapons), or more generally R2GE (Right to Global Empire).
Noam Chomsky and Vijay Prashad's exposure on "Democracy Now" this morning (and 'mourning') in their book "The Withdrawal" provides IMHO, the proof that the "We're #1", "We're #1", "We're #1" insanity cheer for "The Quiet American EMPIRE" is clear proof of this:
Disguised Global Crony Capitalist Racist Propagandist Criminal Ecocidal Child-Killing & War-Starting EMPIRE, controlled by the ‘Ruling-Elite’, UHNWI, <0.003%ers, TCCers, arrogantly self-appointed "Masters of the Universe", and "Evil (not-so) Geniuses" [Kurt Andersen] — which hides Empire behind their totally corrupted dual-party duopoly Vichy-facade of faux-democracy.
The only hopeful thoughts that I have are reflected in these double-sided demonstration signs which have evolved over many years of tortured, but insightful, social political-economic thinking — which I have hopefully done Justice to:
LOVE
OVER
VIOLENT
EMPIRE
and on the other side:
LOVE OVER
POWER, MONEY
HATE & EMPIRE
I continually do ad-hoc focus-group testing in Maine and New Hampshire (with 90%+ favorability), and have just had my Portland, Maine, Union Print Shop, run a batch of these newest double-sided Campaign-signs for your November Mid-Term Election WIN:
SOCIALIZING
CREATES
LOVE
and on the other side:
CAPITALISM
ENFORCES
EMPIRE
All of which leads me to one simple confidence —that the first Party to 'Choose' violence, will 'Lose’.
Excellent speech Chris.........and frightening. But perhaps an inevitable development, considering how real climate change is now, and how much devastation it is going to cause going forward. The ruling elites have less and less to offer the working gullible, and for them, gated castles for the few are the only climate mitigation they can imagine.
For the rest of us......perhaps we've earned what's coming. The fate of real journalism doesn't seem to mean much to the many glued to the 'smart phones'....sending one liners that fail to build anything resembling solidarity.
Bravo. Exactly stated. The CIA is a criminal organization that is answerable to no one.
Bear in mind though that the folks that are in power - the WEF billionaire class - are the ones that really pull the strings. Mumbly Joe is a product of this class, as is the entirety of the corrupt Democratic leadership. The non MAGA leadership on the Republican side is equally corrupt.
That leaves only the MAGA folks and the true left (yourself, Jimmy Dore, Russell Brand, etc) as forces speaking up against this corrupt establishment. You should try to find some common cause with the MAGA element rather than demonize them.
You want faux legality look no further than Steven Donziger and the atrocity of justice involved with the CORRUPT Judicial system that took him down. But in so doing, it shined the light of truth directly upon its very dark nature and the corruption that goes on behind the scenes with corporate money structuring so-called Justice in a way designed to hurt the average person as always. The entire system is a SHAM and SCAM designed to keep the rich in power and to reward those who play ball with them to a certain level. This is institutionalized insanity. And it is coming to an incendiary ending. With all of the horror exposed for the world to see, especially in the Suez canal and what they have been shipping through there. And the exploitation and slavery of women and children for sick demented practices of the so-called demonic elite. Ignorance breeds this type of insanity. Let the world know it all.... And its ending shall be upon us. Namaste...EWC
I am old halt and almost blind but this ain't political. I don't believe in conspiracy theories we are not nearly intellectually equipped to do conspiracies Certainly not in the USA or Russia where gossip is is worth three times its weight in lucre.
I think I know what is happening in Ukraine and Tehran and maybe Beijing.
Yesterday's news tying organized crime to Mar o Lago and Esterel a tiny tourist community north of Ottawa in Western Quebec is really a job for Holmes and Watson.
If you keep an open mind and want very deep research then look for on utube and read William Cooper behold a pale horse as a start. Mr Cooper was an Intelligent officer in the Navy and Air Force. Just find his old radio show the hour of the times and listen. He was a conservative who feared the country was under attack by Marxist but he also knew the story was much more complex than that. His bogey men are British Royalty that say they are Jews. It gets complicated but his book list is a library by itself. Mystery Schools we’re his specialty and said they are all pyramid schemes. Anyway thanks to Mr Hedges for his grit , perseverance and intelligent honesty.
I'm sure Chris would see this Prophecy of Isaiah from some 2600 years ago, accurately describes what is unfolding in this Material World TODAY!
I commanded My prepared ones; I summoned My heroes to [execute] My wrath, those who rejoice in My pride.
The sound of a multitude in the mountains, the likeness of a numerous people, the sound of the stirring of kingdoms of nations gathering; the Lord of Hosts appoints officers over the warring host.
They come from a distant land, from the end of the heavens; the Lord and the weapons of His fury, to destroy all the land.
Lament, for the day of the Lord is near; like a raid from the Almighty it shall come.
Isaiah 13
Similar ideas and Visions in the Revelation of the New Testament,
And the nations were angry, and your WRATH is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that you should give reward to your servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear your name, small and great; and should destroy them which destroy the earth.
Revelation 11:18
Therefore rejoice, you heavens, and you that dwell in them. (the kingdom of heaven is WITHIN you)
Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great WRATH, because he knows that he has but a short time.
Revelation 12:12
Everyone can see the Nations are angry and Wrath is increasing among the People of the Nations, but who can discern WHICH WRATH IS WHICH?
Living the Love of God and the People through Faith in Christ Jesus saves us from the WRATH of God and the WRATH of the devil.
Chris Hedges is a legend. Roger Waters shouted out Chris Hedges on Joe Rogan.

i agree it is time to over through the corporate state.

Thank you very much. It is never explained WHY such pathological hate of capitalist Russia and total support of Nazi-dominated Ukraine government !!
Stand with Russia – it fights for all of us against bipartisan fascist US/UK clique.

Chris Hedges, John Pilger, Noam Chomsky and others, risk much as they defy those who would censor their message of the right to be informed.
The First Amendment (and the Fourth) is under attack, while belief in 'democracy' is persistent.
Go for it, Chris. That's what needs to happen but, sadly, won't.
