Media Roots Radio- Cindy Sheehan Interview

In Episode 111 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg explores the legacy of Francis Parker Yockey and other exponents of the now fast-growing current in the Western fascist tradition that has looked to Russia as a patron and ally. Under the leadership of Alexander Dugin, "Putin's Rasputin" and the theorist of a "Eurasian" bloc aganst the Western democratic powers, resurgent far-right Russo-nationalism is building ties to neo-fascist organizations across Europe—as well as to supposed "anti-war" leftists in the United States. The Putin propaganda machine's Nazi-baiting of the Ukrainians is yet another example of the sinister trend of fascist pseudo-anti-fascism. It is imperative that progressives in the West do not take the toxic bait of this "Red-Brown Aliiance." Any genuine anti-war position must begin with repudiating Putin's threats and aggression against Ukraine.

Los Titulares de Hoy - 30 de enero de 2015

The revised deal for US access to Ukraine's mineral wealth (with no security guarantees for Kyiv) collapsed in the unseemly Oval Office donnybrook, and European leaders now convene their own summit—faced with the prospect of supporting Ukraine without the US. But Hungary and Slovakia represent an authoritarian bloc that supports Ukraine's betrayal—and Romania could be next to defect to this Russia-aligned bloc. In Europe and America alike, elements of the "tankie" pseudo-left no longer even bother to hide their convergence with MAGA. In Episode 267 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg calls for a clean break at both the international and grassroots levels. Europe must realize that the Atlantic alliance is effectively dead, and there are no prospects of reviving it while Trump is in the White House; whether or not the rumors are true that he was recruited as a KGB agent in the '80s, he is now on Putin's side. And progressives must repudiate pseudo-left misleaders who shill for Trump and and spread lies for Putin, and seek a new leadership that mobilizes to oppose them.

MAGA-fascism and the future of Europe

Title: They All Deserve Peace
Artist: Act KI Komplott
„They All Deserve Peace“ is a rousing Southern Electro-Pop anthem that tells the stories of Vitaly, a kid in Kharkiv’s ruins, Fatima, a mother in Damascus, and Sergej, a soldier in the trenches. With thumpin’ bass, soaring synths, and gospel-tinged vibes in the style of Kacey Musgraves or The Chainsmokers, this track calls for unity and peace. Peace as a God-given right, the heart of humanity, free from greed, hate, and sorrow – a song that lifts spirits and heals wounds. For everyone dreamin’ of a better world.

DemocracyNow.org - "NRA Killing Our Kids" -- that was the message of CODEPINK activists as they interrupted the first public address by National Rifle Association chief Wayne Lapierre since the Sandy Hook massacre. LaPierre broke the NRA's post-Newtown silence on Friday by calling for armed guards in every school. CODEPINK protesters disrupted him by holding up banners reading "NRA Killing our Kids," and "NRA: Blood On Your Hands." In the days leading up to its call for firearms in schools, the NRA had promised to unveil what it called "meaningful contributions" to the gun control debate.

CODEPINK Disrupts NRA's Wayne LaPierre as He Calls for Guns in U.S. Schools

DemocracyNow.org - Thursday’s confirmation hearing for CIA nominee John Brennan was briefly postponed to clear the room of activists from CODEPINK after they repeatedly disrupted Brennan’s testimony. One woman held a list of Pakistani children killed in U.S. drone strikes. Former U.S. diplomat Col. Ann Wright interrupted Brennan while wearing a sign around her neck with the name of Tariq Aziz, a 16-year-old Pakistani boy who was killed in a U.S. drone strike in 2011. Wright and seven others were arrested. We speak to CODEPINK founder Medea Benjamin who also disrupted the meeting and recently visited Pakistan to speak with victims of drone strikes. “It's not only the killing, it's the terrorizing of entire populations, where they hear the drones buzzing overhead 24 hours a day. Where they're afraid to go to school, afraid to go to the markets, to funerals, to weddings. Where it disrupts entire communities,” Benjamin says. “And we are trying to get this information to our elected officials, to say, 'You are making us unsafe here at home,' to say nothing about illegal, immoral and inhumane these policies are.”
