Imploding Empire news: The US/Israeli slaughter resumes
The Israeli regime supported by the US regime just attacked the people of
Gaza strip killing 304 civilians (reported so far last night to this
morning) and injuring hundreds. Men, women, children are being slaughtered
again in large numbers using US weapons and support. This while not
allowing humanitarian aid (2 million people denied food, medicine, water)).
Is there any group that will intervene to stop the genocide? How is it
that the whole global order is subservient to Zionist racism with only
Yemen trying to ddo something. Egypt, Jordan, Europe, the UN, the US...
partners in genocide. No one still believe the Zionist propaganda but
politicians surrender to the Zionist lobbies and blackmail (Jefrey Epstein
was Mossad).
The US regime also just expelled the the South African Ambassador (for his
outspoken rejection of imperialism) and is trying to expell a lawful
permanant resident (Mamoud Kalil) for speaking the truth about an ongoing
genocide. The regime also got rid of Adam Boehler, US envoy who talked to
Hamas (Islamic Resistance Movement). The US an Israel break ceasefires they

Trump’s anti-worker policies and their effects
Trump’s views on workers are not new
Lawrence Wittner, Professor of History Emeritus at SUNY/Albany who has
written extensively on peace movements, foreign policy, and economic inequality,
considers Trump’s record on American workers
(https://commondreams.org/opinion/trump-working-class). The title of his article,
published on May 21, 2024, says it all: “Trump Didn't Lift Up the Working Class.
He Stepped on Its Neck.” Here’s some of what he writes.
“Although Donald Trump, as president, proclaimed in his 2020 State of the Union
address that he had produced a “blue-collar boom” in workers’ wages, the reality
was quite different. Using his control of the executive branch of the U.S.
government, Trump repeatedly undermined the wages of American workers by
blocking raises and imposing wage reductions.
“Only the preceding year, Trump derailed vital wage legislation. In July
2019―with the pathetically low federal minimum wage stuck at $7.25 per hour for
a decade and some 13 million workers holding two or more jobs to support their
American Spring? Uphold Freedom of Speech on American Campuses
Throughout my political career, I have steadfastly defended the First Amendment, particularly the right to free speech. In 2002, I delivered a speech entitled A Prayer for America, where I challenged the rationale of the PATRIOT Act and questioned actions that infringed upon the constitutional guarantees of freedom of speech and protection against unreasonable searches.
My commitment to upholding free speech has been a guiding principle throughout my tenure in public service. While a Member of Congress, I consistently opposed measures that, in my view, threatened civil liberties, including the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007, which I believed was unconstitutional and could potentially criminalize thought. The bill passed. I was one of 6 members who voted against it.

Beyond Western Hegemony: A Call for Middle Eastern Media Autonomy
The website of a certain pan-Arab media organization seems fixated on translating, commenting, or briefing its audience on everything that US and Israeli officials say about the Middle East.
Every threat made by US President Donald Trump, every tweet by an American official, however insignificant or inconsequential, somehow becomes a 'breaking news' story, worthy of follow-up and heated discussions, as if what Americans say, or fail to say, is the only factor that determines outcomes in our region.
