So we're not gonna talk the same shit about Kirk that you already know and hate. Here's some shit to consider, not least of all yeah, actually this is what the US is. Meanwhile, as people were arguing about aforementioned shit stain, the House just passed a bill punishing "politically motivated" boycotts of Israel, the largest ever single-site immigration raid saw nearly 500 workers arrested, and the Supreme Court made it officially legal to stop and harass anyone who doesn't fit their idea of what an American should look like. Come on in to the shit storm!
US military for home and away games! Readying to invade Venezuela because we don't like how independent they are, sending military to Mexico because the drug cartels that the US helped create are a nice cover story and of course DC! Because there's nothing quite as fun as invading your backyard. Also on the home front, community members in Tuscon have defeated a planned Amazon data center, but more are planned elsewhere, conveniently wrapped in invisibility blankets. Black lung is ravaging coal country again - the fine silica dust a quicker death sentence, and government's response is "just die quickly and quietly." Meanwhile, a new report uncovers Israel's special unit dedicated to painting journalists as "terrorists." leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com projectcensored.org
Eleanor's back! We'll first dive into Trump's DC takeover and why DC home rule and statehood are vital. And before folks outside of DC get all comfortable, this ain't a one-off experiment. Also on the home front, men are impersonating our very own Gestapo in order to kidnap and assault women. Because 'Murica. Meanwhile, as the genocide in Gaza continues, Netanyahu talks plans of "greater Israel" and "occupying Gaza" (the latter plan being heavily redundant). PLUS settler colonialism looks an awful lot alike no matter where you go - Israel or Arkansas. leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
Fun fact: Israel has more nuclear warheads per capita than any nation on the planet. They're also committing a genocide and have just bombed Iran for no reason. So yeah, kinda curious that the world seems to be on Israel's side in all of this, huh? Meanwhile, Gaza is still in a total communications blackout. The March to Gaza is being attacked by the Egyptian government, and Flotilla members are still in Israeli prison, subject to solitary confinement. The LA uprising is yet another moment to remind ourselves and each other not to be tactic police. Let's leave the circular firing squads and focus on protecting each other in the face of overwhelming state violence. AND MORE! leecamp.com artkillingapathy.com
It's been 600 days of genocide. It's impossible to put into words the horrors, and it is actually impossible to count the destruction, with so many still lost beneath the rubble that is now Gaza. Meanwhile, Israel's sadism somehow always finds a way to escalate - this time with supposed "aid" that sees Palestinians kettled and massacred while hoping for food. What can we expect from an aid organization backed by Mossad and the US? Here at home, our fearless leaders like Rubio are standing up for corporate free speech - while squashing human free speech. And it'd be way more funny if it weren't actually true: leaked transcripts from FEMA meetings show that it's not only run by someone interested in shutting it down, but run by someone who doesn't know basic geography. It's a helluva time to be alive, y'all! leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
The math is pretty simple - and I say that as someone who isn't good at math. Trump's bill cuts medicaid, food stamps & the paltry environmental protections we had in order to pay for MASSIVE tax cuts and income raises for the richest of the rich. Meanwhile, Israel shoots at diplomats in the West Bank becasue you know, why not? Corporate media falls over itself to make it seem like no big deal, just like they do with genocide. Israel's plan in Gaza appears to be a concentration camp within a concentration camp where Palestinians will be brought if they want any form of aid before they will likely be ethnically cleansed from the area, a play taken easily from the book of the violent colonizers of what is now known as the United States. PLUS prisoners as mirrors to our inhumanity and when it comes to colonizers, every accusation an admission not least of all when it comes to "white genocide." leecamp.com eleanorgoldfield.substack.com
Despite record medicaid enrollment, members of Congress seek to slash it at the same time they're making it possible for Israel to bomb hospitals. Meanwhile, here at home, corporate media is turning the kidnapping of a toddler into a feel-good story as the domestic Gestapo we know as ICE gets more and more funding - something that has been a bipartisan effort really since its inception. Speaking of domestic issues, Ukraine isn't just dealing with Russia, it's dealing with a shock doctrine style attack on its own basic rights, not least of all in the workplace. leecamp.net eleanorgoldfield.substack.com
Another day in the land of the free! NYPD violently attacks and arrests students at Columbia University. Meanwhile, a new look at the latest budget with more than $1 trillion to the miltary and significantly less to, well, everything else. US boots vis a vis private contractors will likely soon be on the ground in Gaza to help administer Israel's ethnic cleansing and apartheid. PLUS overcrowding ICE concentration camps, remarkable Greenland dumbshittery & more! leecamp.net eleanorgoldfield.substack.com
Oh the land of the freeeeeeeeee! Prosecuting thought crimes because hey, why not? Breaking down and contextualizing our times not to minimize the seriousness but to understand where we are, how we got here, and how we get out. It's a scary time to get loud, but it's also an important time to get loud. Self-censorship and obeying in advance will not stem the tide of fascism. PLUS a look at the empirical absurdity of property, unpacking liberal zionism, AND MORE! leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
So Trump is an idiot. That's not news. But what is news is how remarkably quickly the economy is tanking thanks to his "tariffs for 'Murica" plan. And here at the bottom, you and I will feel the greatest weight of this crash while the world looks on, watching the US just beat the shit out of iteslf for no apparent reason. PLUS some words from Richard Wolff on Econ 101 and thes times, the Panama Canal purchase on hold, and more!
2024 was the deadliest year on record in a lot of ways, but not least of all for migrants. A new report by the UN shows highlights violent anti-immigration policies as a global terror, and one that'll only become more deadly thanks to compounding factors like climate chaos and "war." Speaking of deadly, Israel has targeted and murdered more journalists in a continued rampage not only against all Palestinians but against the truth of their genocide. In other Israel-related news, a shadowy geoengineering company wants to spray shit in our skies to supposedly combat climate change. I'm sure we all feel good in their hands. PLUS Florida wants kids to take over for deported migrants, CNN admits the only two factors that drive our system are fear and greed... leecamp.com artkillingapathy.com
The genocide that didn't really end has begun again. Israel may also be planning a ground invasion. Meanwhile, here at home, the cruelty of ICE lays bare the terrorism and foundational white supremacy of the United States. To be clear, Trump's presidency is terrifying and it is also not a new boil on the sick body politic - he's a continuation, a leveling up of a grotesque system that made someone like him possible. And what level of fascism is it to target intellectuals who dare think outside the confines of your political decrees? PLUS trauma is in your DNA, Tesla's crash means more than meets the eye
Dems aren't the opposition, but they want you to think they are, and more importantly they want you to know their "opposition" is the only kind that's acceptable. Meanwhile, DOGE's claims of "saving money" are b.s. And even if they did manage to save some money, you and I aren't seeing it. The ports of the world are being bought up, mostly by one asset management firm. To quote the great movie Network, there are no countries, only corporations. It doesn't seem like there's much Israel could do to piss off Uncle Sam. But what if it started to cut ties to the military industrial complex? Would the US love them without their addiciton to our weapons? PLUS our power isn't in consumerism, It's in our labor, and the ability to withhold it. AND MORE! leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
The so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is off to a helluva start, firing everybody from park rangers to nuclear scientists. Is this bad? Yup. Is it as bad as liberal America would have you believe? Nope. Speaking of not what liberal America would have you think, DEI wasn't the white (or non-white) knight in shining armor we were supposed to take it for. Something that IS as awesome as it seems is how folks are outsmarting ICE by knowing their rights. PLUS latest updates from the West Bank, Gaza, and Lee's new show! leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
US empire has decided not to push for NATO membership for Ukraine, thereby back peddling the proxy war against Russia. Meanwhile, Trump n friends are sending 5,000 troops to the border bc the Gestapo (CBP/ICE) need support in their human rights violations. And private prisons stand to make even more bank as detentions of migrants and refugees are expected to skyrocket. Violence in the West Bank is at levels not seen since the last Intifada in 2000. And there are some striking similarities between the horrific imprisonment of Palestinians and the prison industrial complex here in the land of the free. PLUS death by orgasm? leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
This final season of America is a doozy! But at least we have humor. Some of the most amazing utterances were made in Congress the other day during the RFK, Jr. hearings. Meanwhile, the Laken Riley Act has passed which is yet another reveal of the deep anti-immigrant bipartisan policy of the US. Recent ICE raids include the arrest of Inidgenous peoples, which at first blush might seem ironic but it's really just all part of the same horrific system that violently attacks Indigenous and non-white peoples across all borders. leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
The numbers are an undercount, but at least 40,000 children in Gaza are now orphans. Meanwhile, Biden handed Trump a helluva network of immigrant oppression. Here's what you should know to keep yourself and your community safe. United Health overcharged cancer patients by thousands of dollars - because you know, that's the right thing to do. PLUS hell freezes over in New Orleans, and AI issues in the new world order. leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
So the LA fires continue to rage so it seems like a good time to talk about what's fueling them - and we don't mean just climate chaos but the actual fuel on the ground. It might not be what you think it is. (Hint: it's not shrubs) Meanwhile, up to 30% of the firefighting force is in fact...slave labor. In news from over there, what's the deal with this ceasefire? What can we expect, what do we know, and what should we prepare for? PLUS the land of the free brings you journalists being forcibly removed from press briefings for asking questions the state doesn't like. leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
New United Healthcare CEO promises more of the same, i.e. more deaths for a bigger bottom line. Meanwhile, another murderer Daniel Penny walks free. Lee & Eleanor discuss some disturbing points brought up by his defense as to why he shouldn't be (and ultimately wasn't) blamed for the death of Jordan Neely. In related news, don't call the cops 99.9% of the time we're told we should. Here's who to call instead of the police. PLUS a greenlight for more military spending than ever and more! leecamp.net artkillingapathy.com
We're back! The long silence was due to Lee's trip to Tibet (something you can hear about in his comedy special live on zoom December 14th!) and you know, that holiday celebrating US genocide during another US-backed genocide. On brand. So, in this episode: Sec. Blinken doesn't think enough Ukrainian kids are dying in the US proxy war with Russia. Meanwhile, without the US, Israel could not fight. And that's coming from top officials in Israel. Palestine Action activists in court for standing up against genocide. Surveillance tech used by cops is wrong almost 90% of the time. So why are cities still using it?? *Note: this was recorded on December 6th so before we knew who had shot United Healthcare CEO.

Now that the Democrats have again stolen the election from Bernie Sanders, if Trump wins again the credit belongs to the Democrats! Just like in 2016. And the Democratic Party will continue to demonize the person they are responsible for getting re-elected, in order to manipulate the people that still think they actually want Trump out of the white house!

Correct. We have a long history of exit polls being extremely accurate, until the 2000 election with Bush and Gore. Exit polls were showing the fuckery in that election a little too accurately, so something had to be done to invalidate them for the future. Greg palast has been exposing electoral fraud since then. what an amazing job this man has done. Holy crap time flies ...and so our democracy along with it 😐

the green New Deal doesn't go far enough because, it was co-opted by the corporate captured Democratic party from the Green Party. And now it will die on the altar of fake progressives. ...and the two of you are my faverites 😊
