It is “ridiculous” to believe that the Russians somehow tipped the November election to Donald Trump. “What was Hillary Clinton offering,” asked Sara Flounders, of UNAC, the United National Anti-War Coalition. “She was promising, ‘You’re going to have more of the same for the next eight years,’ plus all kinds of military threats. And, they also moved farther to the Right. That was rejected.” UNAC is gearing up for its yearly conference, June 16 to 18, in Richmond, Virginia, under the theme: The Need for an Independent Path. “We don’t place a bit of confidence in the Republicans or Democrats,” said Flounders. “They both represent Wall Street and corporate power.”

Trump national security advisor John Bolton “is simply a militarist,” said Phyllis Bennis, director of the New International Project at the Institute for Policy Studies, in Washington. “He has never seen an international challenge, an international crisis, that did not require direct US military intervention to solve it.” Bolton and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo are heading up the administration’s negotiations with North Korea.

A record US war budget was approved last week. Democrats voted 2 to 1 for Trump's military parade, his space force, and the expansion of the US empire of a thousand bases around the world. The resistance is really the assistance.

The recent two-week lockdown of Pennsylvania’s prison system was based on scientifically baseless claims that contraband drugs created a health crisis for prison employees, according to Kris Henderson, of the Amistad Law Project. Most drugs don’t enter prison through mail to inmates, said Henderson, but are smuggled in by prison staff.
