Prof. Paul Craig Roberts on the midterm elections: ‘The Democratic Party in the past wanted to join the establishment, now the Democrats want REVOLUTION.’ ‘If the Democrats take control of the Congress, they're going to focus not on the Russians or the Chinese or the Iranians. They're going to focus on the Republicans. The Democratic Party is transitioning from a party of reform to a party of revolution. The new leaders, they're not yet in leadership positions, but they're the leaders in terms of they're on the cutting edge. They're the ones causing the movement, the talk. They're very radical. Afshin Rattansi: ‘But Professor, they always sell out as soon as they get near the head of the DNC, don't they? They sell out those ideas very quickly.’ Prof. Paul Craig Roberts: Well, in the past, the fight was to join the establishment, but now we've got people who've turned their back on the establishment, and they want to overthrow society. It's the way they speak, it's the emphasis they make, and they have discovered that law can be turned into a weapon to be used against your political opponents. They tried it out with all the charges against Trump. They recently described to a conference how these, how prosecutors could abuse law to destroy their political opponents, so I think you're going to see more emphasis on internal fights in the United States than Democrats anxious to go to war with Russia. I don't think they are anxious to go to war with Russia. I think they want to overthrow this existing social institutions.’ Don’t miss the full interview on Saturday’s Going Underground, follow us on X and follow our Rumble channel, link below in the replies 👇

On this day in 1962, the Cuban Missile Crisis began after President JFK announced a blockade on Cuba🇨🇺, following the discovery of Soviet missile sites in the country. The Soviet Union’s positioning of missiles was a direct response to US nuclear weapons being placed in Turkey and Italy, aimed at the USSR… And the US’ failed CIA Bay of Pigs invasion, which was an embarrassing attempt at removing Fidel Castro from power. For 13 days, the Soviet Union and the United States stood at the brink of nuclear Armageddon. Tense negotiations between General Secretary Nikita Khrushchev and President John F. Kennedy averted disaster, with the Soviet Union agreeing to remove its missiles from Cuba, while the US pledged to not invade Cuba and promised to remove its nuclear weapons from Turkey. Arguably, the situation today is far worse than the Cuban Missile Crisis, and is a result of Washington’s and NATO’s hypocrisy. The US took the world to the brink of nuclear war in 1962 over Soviet nuclear weapons being placed in Cuba…over the 21st Century, US and NATO nation troops and strike systems, sit on Russia’s borders. US nuclear weapons are stationed in Europe, aimed at Russia. Not once have NATO leaders acknowledged that if the shoe were on the other foot, with Russia or China attempting to build a military presence in Mexico or Canada, the US would react with a ferocious military attack. NATO weaponry is being fired deep into Russia via Washington’s proxy, Zelensky, a scenario that would have been unthinkable even at the height of the so-called Cold War. One strike causing a mass casualty event could start a NATO-Russia direct conflict.
