Trump’s Military Occupations of U.S. Cities Cost $473 Million and Rising Trump’s campaign to quell dissent by deploying the American military to U.S. cities comes at an immense price theintercept.com/2025/11/11/c...

Cancer deaths from environmental devastation and the decimation of healthcare will likely continue long after bombs are dropped in Gaza, writes Joshua Frank, citing our research. tomdispatch.com/gazas-loomin...

A U.S. official says the Biden administration buried his finding that the IDF intentionally shot a journalist, alleging the State Department downplayed it to avoid angering Israel.

Not a word in this entire piece about the Michigan maniac's love for Trump and Charlie Kirk (he shared posts of the latter), or the fact that Kirk's alleged murderer was raised in a Mormon home. Some facts (spurious or not) that would be very inconvenient for MAGA. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/29/u...

The regime is now directly stepping in to influence the media. Companies see what’s happening and they’re paying to play. The classic fascist arrangement — an alliance between corporate and government power to kill democracy and attack the left — is in full swing. www.jphilll.com/p/full-blown...

Gaza's Looming Cancer Epidemic: The Many Ways Bombs Can Kill by @joshuafrank.bsky.social

Israel Kills 113 More Palestinians in Gaza, Including 33 People Seeking Aid

Not just an attack on “experts” or science. It’s an attack on facts, knowledge, education or anything that could support someone questioning their iron rule. The bedrock of totalitarian, authoritarian regimes and dictatorships. That’s what RFK Jr is calling for. Only the dictator knows “the truth.”

The chaos at the CDC is a culmination of anti-science, authoritarian hackery - everything braindead MAGA voted for. With public health guardrails now almost destroyed, the next pandemic that strikes may well catapult us into a Mad Max dystopian future. As if this one wasn't dystopian enough.

Airdrops of aid in Gaza fall on desperate, hungry civilians and crush them to death. The air drops are not a solution to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. They are a publicity stunt so that Western governments can avoid holding Israel accountable for the blockade.

What is the Cancer-Industrial Complex? Great discussion with METASTASIS author @cannafis.bsky.social and @counterpunchmedia.bsky.social! www.counterpunch.org/2025/08/05/t...

This is my friend. His name is Christian Smalls. He founded the Amazon Labor union Not as a professional activist, but as a worker who decided he’d had enough. Recently, he was beaten and detained by the IDF And no one in the MSM is talking about it. paydayreport.com/amazon-union...

The Israeli genocide in Gaza has brought two chilling truths into our focus: first, Israel is deliberately and aggressively undermining the security and stability of the entire Middle East and, second, Israel is utterly incapable of surviving on its own.

Jacobin, always uncritically keen on nuclear power while ignoring every externality but CO2 emissions. Uranium mining on the Navajo Nation? Fine. Accidents? No prob. Links to proliferation? Yeah right. Nuke plants in war zones? Safe! Forever waste? We'll figure it out. jacobin.com/2025/07/hoch...

Ann Coulter wants to kill Native Americans (so do some on the Left) by @joshuafrank.bsky.social

I get this instinct but based on years of evidence it has just reinforced the idea that immigration is about public safety (a lie) rather than about labor and seeking refuge. Instead of arguing on their terms it's much more effective to do what Mamdani did when Trump threatened to denaturalize him..

BREAKING NEWS: Senate Republicans voted to pass Trump’s budget bill. This bill strips Americans of health care and food assistance, just to give the ultra-wealthy a huge tax handout. This is a devastating blow for working people.

"NO SLEEP FOR ICE" - the campaign to keep the Gestapo thugs up at night. A video report. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zKZ...

In an incredible and historic interview, Lakota historian, writer, and scholar Nick Estes sat down with Leonard Peltier for an in-depth conversation— about Leonard’s origins with the Red Power movement and ultimately AIM, about the sinister tactics of the FBI, and about Anna Mae Pictou Aquash.

Cuomo's campaign was not based on a return to leadership, but rather a cynical power grab rooted in his own knowledge of the structural elements of the Democratic Party machine, still designed to dismiss any past transgressions.

NYTs losing their shit. They literally said this was going to be a nail-biter.

Note to New Yorker, Mamdani's rise is not a "surprise." People are sick of liberal establishment politics dominated by billionaire funders. The tenants of socialism are actually pretty damn popular.

The *real* story of Black Lives Matter Based off my interview with Dr. Melina Abdullah, original BLM founding member and co-founder of BLM-LA and @blmgrassroots.bsky.social My first for @counterpunchmedia.bsky.social www.counterpunch.org/2025/06/15/h...

On this episode of CounterPunch Radio, Joshua Frank and Erik Wallenberg talk with Hadley Austin, director of the new documentary, Demon Mineral, which traces the radioactive legacy of uranium mining on the Navajo Nation.

Please, someone, tell the bros at Jacobin that this is precisely why nuclear power will never be safe. Lunatics can bomb facilities at any moment.

Understanding that its existence depended on having a superior military in a hostile region prompted Israel to initiate a nuclear weapons program soon after its founding in 1948.

Our report from the streets of LA. #noice www.counterpunch.org/2025/06/20/c...

Trump is sending 2,000 ADDITIONAL National Guard troops to LA. There haven't been any protest-related arrests since Saturday. Hell - many of the protests have already died down. Trump is using the military as a personal political weapon to inspire fear in people who oppose him.

To be clear, the LAPD just escorted ICE into the parking lot. I do not know where they are going. Probably 100 protestors here at Gate E. It’s possible they are escorting them to another gate to exit to avoid a clash with protestors. The Dodgers are saying ICE is not allowed in their parking lot

“Over 250 million acres of public lands are eligible for sale in the bill, including local recreation areas, wilderness study areas and inventoried roadless areas.” www.wilderness.org/articles/med...

This war is not a preemptive blow against Iran —it is a preemptive strike against diplomacy itself.

LA is no fan of Trump or ICE. Report at 7.

What they aren’t showing on Fox News

If the US District Judge rules against Trump's deployment of the National Guard in CA (and doesn't issue an injunction to give the feds time to appeal), and Trump defies the order (as expected), this shitstorm will catapult from a "Constitutional Crisis" straight to a "Fascism Crisis."

"Why my ancestors would be in the streets" - @joshuafrank.bsky.social

Why I have little doubt that my grandfather, with dirt under his nails, and a cigarette dangling from his sun-chapped lips, would be with us in the streets, fist raised, chanting, “Fuck ICE!”

The budget proposal for HHS has significant cuts to the National Institute of Health & CDC. Trump's admin pretends that slashing funding for these agencies will somehow "Make America Healthy Again." The reality? We'll see irreversible damage to the health & safety of all Americans.
