Trump does nothing himself. Sham justice carries the support of the entire political establishment.

It was never much more than a tool to repress the poor and marginalized.

You should expect that a kangeroo court has already been arranged.

The relationship of Latin states with the US has never been of negotiation between equal peers. South and Central America are subjugated under the colonialism of the US. They are kept poor because their economies are structured to be dependent on trade with the US.

The true effect will be to affirm the urgency for such states to develop deeper integration with the Russia-China power axis.

Strikes require unity across a workforce.

If some workers in a local context work instead of participating in a strike, then the business is not pressured to acquiesce, and the sacrifice is in vain.

Striking in any case results in lost pay, which promotes fear and threatens survival. Solidarity improves morale and saves lives.

Fostering unity and solidarity is among the essential functions of a union.

Do you know of any strong central leaders?

They rarely speak for everyone.

A general strike is not for negotiations, but for pressuring the political establishment to acquiesce to particular demands.

All we can do is rebuild.

Strikes are organized through unions not hashtags.

I simply will repeat that your representation of the ruling is not accurate.

You are free to insist on your own definition, but yours will not take precedence, in any future proceedings, over the one from the ruling.

Why are you not understanding?

I am simply noting the plain fact, that the reason for the invasion occurring is its being ordered by the president. Hence, the order is an “official act” as defined. Why are you shouting, instead of reading and thinking?

“Official acts” was defined as any that were connected to his holding office. His brushing his teeth is not an official act as the president. We all brush our teeth. Only one individual orders the US military to ambush foreign states. He is president and everyone else is not.

Taiwan is a colony.

The overall dynamics are fundamentally comparable.

Framing Iraq and Saddam as stockpiling weapons and being linked to Al Queda is exactly analogous to framing Venezuela and Maduro as linked to Americans struggling with drug addiction. Further, both invasions are blood for oil. The mechanics of imperialism remains broadly consistent.

Truman oversaw the establishment of the postwar order, through which vanquished and depleted nations became loci for investment of capital, and for containment of China and the Soviet Union.

Impunity and nonaccountability for presidents is deeply embedded in the framework of American society. Unless they target corporations and the wealthy, they are securely protected despite their evildoing.

Understanding the past developments with clarity opens a chance to achieve effective solutions for the most serious problems.

Society will not return to the past.

The consensus of uneasy contentment with the status quo has been shattered, and the pressures toward change are immense.

The way forward, whether it develops favorably or unfavorably, will be new and different.

At minimum, it would be necessary to dismantle settler-colonialism in Palestine, meaning an end to the “Jewish state”.

Many seem to believe that if Trump died in office, the situation would return to a normalcy from before his first administration. It’s tiresome, lazy thinking.
