The Covid-19 pandemic has revealed that, while we’re all interconnected — through the air we breathe, our public health systems, the economy — the government is largely absent in American life, leaving us to fend for ourselves as individuals in the so-called “free market.” The crisis has wreaked economic havoc on working Americans. But U.S. billionaires have gotten 62 percent richer during the pandemic, while over 86 million Americans lost jobs, some 3 million households now report concerns of imminent eviction, and essential workers — particularly Latino, Indigenous and Black workers — continue to die […]
Above Photo: Caracas has demanded the release of businessman Alex Saab. (Ariana Cubillos/Associated Press) The Maduro administration blasted the contractor’s “kidnapping” and suspended dialogue with the US-backed opposition. Venezuelan government envoy Alex Saab has been extradited to the United States from Cape Verde, where he had been imprisoned since 2020. The extradition was first reported by local Cape Verde outlets and later confirmed by US officials. The contractor will face trial in Florida where he was charged with money laundering. The Nicolás Maduro government immediately reacted, denouncing the “kidnapping” of Saab by the US government. An official statement blasted the move for violating […]
Above photo: El 19 Digital. The Excuse Since the house arrest of former president Violeta Barrios de Chamorro’s daughter Cristiana Chamorro for money laundering and other crimes, the US and international assault against the Sandinista government has grown. This is the continuation of an ongoing attack against Sandinismo that began long before the US and its regime change agents took advantage of Chamorro’s arrest. Precisely because the coup d’état against the Sandinista government failed in 2018 we see a continued offensive against Nicaragua. To achieve their goals, the US and its agents are throwing the kitchen sink of dirty tricks against the Sandinista […]
Above Photo: Biden addressing the U.N. General Assembly on Tuesday. U.N. TV. Contrary to the evidence, the president said the U.S. was not at war. Joe Biden, in his first address to the United Nations General Assembly, told world leaders Tuesday: “I stand here today, for the first time in 20 years, with the United States not at war.” According to the latest available White House war report, the U.S. was involved in seven wars in 2018: Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Somalia, Libya, and Niger. The U.S. withdrew last month from Afghanistan, so the number of current U.S. wars is likely six. […]

The Global South Response against Israel’s apartheid and annexation plan was launched in July 2020, endorsing the Palestinian civil society demands of UN investigation into Israel’s apartheid, ending business ties, supporting the ICC probe and imposing a military embargo on it. Challenging Israel’s de jure annexation plans, this call located itself in the shared history and commitment to anti-colonialism between Palestinians and the Global South. It was received widely, and endorsed by 10 ex-Presidents including Thabo Mvuyelwa Mbeki, Dilma Rousseff, Lula da […]
Above photo: Eduardo Munoz/Reuters. China’s commitment to enhancing social cohesion is an example of what a society should strive to do. But racism endemic to the U.S. prevents it from taking the same steps. Mainstream U.S. media frequently depicts China as a “closed off” country that treats ethnic minorities with contempt and oppression. The New York Times took this baseless accusation further in an op-ed published on September 9 that claimed China was closing itself off from the world and rejecting the English language. No verifiable proof was offered beyond reforms to the education system that seek to address economic and social […]

For Biden, backing a candidate for the November elections in Honduras is a choice between protecting U.S. business interests and condemning the corruption, drug trafficking, and violence that increase migration. Of the countries in Central America’s “northern triangle,” Honduras is the one that sends the most migrants to the United States. Already this year over 32,000 Honduran migrants have been deported from the United States, including more than 2,600 children.

US airlines are preparing to lay off tens of thousands of employees unless they get additional federal aid. The industry has been struggling to stay afloat amid an unprecedented collapse in air travel due to the Covid pandemic. American Airlines CEO Doug Parker said late Wednesday that the carrier has no choice but to cut 19,000 jobs after attempts to get more federal money failed. The CEO of United Airlines, Scott Kirby, said the decision to cut 13,000 jobs marked “a very sad day for all of us here at United.” Earlier in the day, Parker told CNN he still hoped that the job cuts might […]

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused neighboring Russia of trying to divide the world into “spheres of influence” in a speech, delivered remotely from Kiev, to the 75th session of the UN General Assembly. According to Zelensky, the United Nations (UN) was built on the fact that “humankind should have learned the tragic lessons of World War II,” but Russia’s “occupation of Crimea” and “aggression in the Donbass” are proof that the world has not learned from the past. “I would like to remind you that it is not only, and not just, war in Ukraine. It’s war in Europe,” Zelensky […]

Birds need to refuel occasionally during their long migrations and if food along the way is in short supply some don’t make it. However, mass deaths caused by starvation during the flight have generally been pretty rare. That is, until this year.

TEL AVIV—Assuming last-minute disputes about mask-wearing and social distancing can be ironed out in time, the South Lawn of the White House will once more be the site of a historic Middle East peace deal signing. Two deals, in fact, as both Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates normalize ties with Israel.

In early January the United States killed General Qassim Soleimani, a top commander of Iran’s al-Quds Force, in an airstrike at Baghdad’s International Airport.

The number lives claimed by Covid-19 in the United States surpassed 110,000 on Sunday afternoon, according to the Center for Systems Science and Engineering (CSSE) at Johns Hopkins University. The unprecedented milestone is clearly a somber one, yet the full scope of 110,000 lives lost remains hard to imagine. In an effort to try and visualize the loss, we compared the death toll to populations of states’ capitals below the 110,000 person threshold. The result, presented below, are 19 states whose entire populations of their capital city pale in comparison to our country’s coronavirus mortalities over the past five months. Source […]

That is, to judge by the reaction of global public health specialists. In the days that followed, the four-page, prosecutorial-sounding letter to Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus created shockwaves. The […]
