Top 7 Signs Willie Nelson Might not be a Republican (That’s ‘TeaPot Party,’ not Tea Party)
Music legend Willie Nelson is doing a benefit concert for Democratic senator hopeful in Texas, Beto O’Rourke, provoking the anger of some Republicans who had been his fans (but apparently were not very observant people). Here are some signs that might have signaled to those fans that Willie Nelson is not a Republican and does […]
Internet Giants finally Take down Far-Right Conspiracy Theorist Alex Jones
New York (AFP) – Internet giants launched an offensive Monday against far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who is now banned from Apple, Facebook, Spotify and YouTube.

White Nationalist Steve Bannon Moves to Europe to boost Far Right
Washington (AFP) – US President Donald Trump’s controversial former advisor Steve Bannon plans to set up a foundation in Europe called “The Movement” to spark a populist rightwing revolt, according to a report.

A strident populism manifested in President Trump opposes the left extremism of Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren. Oh for the days of Illinois Senator Everett McKinley Dirksen versus Lyndon […]
Progressive Dems Are Celebrating Ocasio-Cortez v. Crowley Win; But where is the Legislation?
Progressives are rightly elated by the surprise win in a New York primary of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. They saw her ten-term opponent as having failed to stand for workers. But it is possible for Ocasio-Cortez never to pass even a single law. My advice to her and to her backers is not just to perfect her […]
Calls grow in Germany to Expel US Ambassador who Aims to Empower Hard Right
Berlin (AFP) – A member of the German government on Tuesday accused the new US ambassador in Berlin of meddling in domestic politics and aggravating already tense ties, as left-wing parties called for the staunch ally of Donald Trump to be expelled. Richard Grenell took up his Berlin posting on May 8 and immediately irked […]
European Fascism plots to change American Culture
By Juliette Legendre | (Foreign Policy in Focus) | – – Far more dangerous than the far-right effort to win elections alone is its concerted campaign to change the culture — a strategy it owes, perversely, to the left. When Marine Le Pen took the reins of her father’s French far-right National Front party, she […]
