Progressive = Marxism it always has.
American Speakers at Barcelona Marxist GPM: Clinton, Sanders, Murphy, Walz, Mamdani!
The Global Progressive Mobilisation (GPM) Summit.
Interesting that Hillary Clinton attended remotely... she is involved with Eric Holder regarding election war game exercises ahead of U.S. midterms.
The Global Progressive Mobilisation (GPM) took place on 17–18 April 2026 in Barcelona. It was convened by the Party of European Socialists (PES) with partners including the Socialist International, the Progressive Alliance, the S&D Group in the European Parliament, and FEPS. About 400 delegations from 75 countries took part. More than 3,000 people attended the first day. Close to 7,000 attended the second day, with over 5,000 in the final plenary. Organizers presented the event as a response to authoritarianism, inequality, and far-right advances. Speakers called for international progressive coordination against figures such as Donald Trump.
American participants included in-person speakers and remote video messages. Neera Tanden, president and CEO of the Center for American Progress, spoke early as a co-organizer. She criticized Trump’s policies for burdening working people while benefiting the wealthy. She called for an agenda focused on lowering costs for housing, health care, energy, and childcare.
U.S. Senator Chris Murphy of Connecticut delivered a keynote later in the program. He said the situation in the United States was “the most significant threat to American democracy since the Civil War.” He stated that “Donald Trump in our country is trying to end our democracy… We are not on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. We are in the middle of it.” Murphy accused the administration of seeking control over courts, law enforcement, media, and elections for oligarchic purposes. He urged global progressive unity.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz also spoke in person. He described certain Trump-era actions as fascism. He highlighted Minnesota’s progressive policies, including an expanded child tax credit and paid leave. He asked the audience not to “give up on the American people.” He urged them to “keep the pressure on” and “keep calling it out.”
Remote video messages came from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Senator Bernie Sanders, and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani. Clinton’s message thanked organizers for creating a space to address global issues. She said: “Around the globe, we see citizens demanding dignity, safety, and opportunity… We see communities standing up for truth against disinformation, for their rights against repression and for hope over fear… Let’s keep standing up for freedom, for justice, for equality, for the simple but powerful idea that together we can shape a better future, no matter what the odds may be.”
Sanders’ message warned that leaders including Trump, Netanyahu, and Putin were “plunging this world into international anarchy where might makes right.” He highlighted extreme wealth concentration, noting that the top 1 percent owns more than the bottom 93 percent in the U.S. He called for international working-class solidarity.
Mamdani’s message thanked Pedro Sánchez and progressive leaders. He described everyday cost-of-living struggles in New York as reflective of global inequality. He said the path to combating inequality “is a path that we will have to take together, hand in hand.”
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva also addressed the gathering. He stressed consistency between campaign promises and governing actions. He called for progressive forces to deliver on social justice and democracy without betraying public trust.
The Barcelona gathering is part of an international coalition mobilized against Trump, fascism, and capitalism. It is interesting that Hillary Clinton attended remotely given that she is involved with Eric Holder regarding election war game exercises ahead of U.S. midterms.
The specific election-related involvement with Holder are external to the GPM event itself. They were not part of the Barcelona proceedings or the speakers’ remarks there.
Or, and work with here, he executed a deliberate strategy and the death and destruction was the point.
Say what you will of them, they weren't stupid. I submit as a sort of "proof" not just the slides below, but the Principle of Finality (Final Cause Analysis).
A thing comes first in the "Order of Intention", and last (hence final) in the "Order of Execution".
They knew what they wanted to do before the did it.
The thing about Mao Zedong was that he was not just a dictator. He was actually a f***ing idiot to such an extent that it would make Trump’s ridiculous claims of himself being a “stable genius” almost credible.
Mao forced farmers to make steel out of farm tools and in small village furnaces, which left farmers with no tools to work the fields. He forced farmers to chase away insect-eating sparrows, which led yo locust-infested fields. Millions starved to death as a result.
He thought that turning the population on itself in endless struggle was the path to proletariat prosperity - all it had done was to make more starve to death, loss of Chinese know-how across the board and China left on the brink of bankruptcy.
His views on dental hygiene were so off the planet that he eschewed both “modern” or more traditional Chinese modes of dental care, to the point that his doctors and others all mention the rotting stench that emanated from his mouth.
Not all dictators are idiots - Deng Xiaoping was a dictator but not an idiot. But Mao excelled himself in his idiotmaxxing, more a buffoonish Idi Amin than a dangerously bright Emperor Kangxi.
Gee, the Admin makes a big effort to restart Nuclear power plants and new reactors...and this happens.
probably not related.....nah.

The best evidence I could prepare for expert opinions, depositions, and testimony about the fiction that is "gender medicine" is simply to examine their citations and present it to the court. Pretty simple really.
He was a Marxist, to the bone.
Noam Chomsky, the "Father of modern linguistics," looked at evidence of industrial-scale murder and decided the real problem was Western media bias.
By 1977, Pol Pot's Khmer Rouge had already killed roughly 1.7 million Cambodians through execution, forced starvation, and slave labor. Chomsky, writing with Edward Herman in "Distortions at Fourth Hand," treated survivor testimony and refugee accounts as State Department fabrications, preferring the far lower body counts published in sympathetic leftist sources.
The intellectual gymnastics required to reach that conclusion were extraordinary. Chomsky dismissed Father Ponchaud's firsthand reporting, questioned Francois Ponchaud's credibility directly, and leaned on a 1977 State Department document to suggest deaths numbered in the thousands, not hundreds of thousands. He applied maximum skepticism to anti-communist sources and near-zero skepticism to anything that cut against American foreign policy narratives. The methodology was selective to the point of being fraudulent.
Chomsky was not a fringe figure typing in a basement. He held an MIT professorship and commanded enormous intellectual authority among Western leftists. When he cast doubt on Cambodian atrocity reports, journalists and academics listened. Real people died while influential intellectuals debated whether their deaths were sufficiently well-sourced.
Collectivist ideology requires enemies to function. When the Khmer Rouge built their agrarian utopia by emptying Phnom Penh at gunpoint and executing anyone wearing glasses, Chomsky's instinct was to protect the ideological project by attacking the messengers. Ideology over corpses.
Play stupid games.......get arrested. This stuff is just dumb.
NEW: Anti-government activist Ammon Bundy was arrested after refusing to exit his unregistered truck in Utah
Iron County deputies pulled Bundy over on Interstate 15 near Cedar City for a missing rear license plate on his Ford F-250.
He admitted the truck was unregistered and produced an expired Idaho driver’s license.
When asked for his current address, he told the deputy to ask his lawyer.
Bundy was then ordered to exit for impound, he refused stating that it was his “right to travel.”
Deputies physically removed him from the vehicle and then forced him face-down, handcuffed him, and carried him after he dragged his feet.
51-years-old and married with six children btw.
Bundy was booked on interfering with a peace officer, failure to obey a peace officer, driving without registration, and driving with an expired license.

Does anyone think this isn't the playbook in any "democracy"? If a nation doesn't outlaw totalitarians, be they communist or Muslim, it will one day be "voted" out of existence.
אני לא בטוח שהישראלים בכלל מבינים מה קרה בבחירות האלה לערביי הפנים.
זה מרד. זה טבח. וזו סכנה קיומית, אבל לא במובן שאתם חושבים.
קחו את התסריט הבא: נניח שהיהודים מצליחים להקים ממשלה משותפת בלי הערבים. גוש השמאל וגוש הימין ימצאו דרך לשתף פעולה וישאירו את הערבים - שוב - בחוץ.
מה אתם חושבים שהערבים יעשו אחרי שהשיגו 19 מנדטים ועדיין לא קיבלו מקום בשלטון?
השלב הבא שלהם הוא טרור מאורגן ושיטתי ומרד מלא וגלוי בשלטון היהודי. זה השלב הבא.
כל עוד הם מאמינים שהשמאל הוא בן ברית שלהם ויש להם סיכוי לכבוש את השלטון באמצעותו - הם ישתדלו להעמיד פני דמוקרטים. אבל אם השמאל ימטוש אותם השלב הבא שלהם הוא מלחמה מזויינת מלאה עד הסוף. במקום לנהור לקלפיות הם ינהרו לבתים של היהודים כדי לטבוח.
תבינו, לא יהיה להם מה להפסיד.
ואז תהיה נכבה 2. כי הכל כתוב מראש וידוע מראש רק ההנהגה שלנו ממשיכה לעצום עיניים ולהמתין למכה הנוראית במקום ליזום מכה מקדימה!

Palmer Luckey says analysts claiming it's too expensive to manufacture in the US are lying to protect megacorps
"I think I have a more realistic view than almost anybody. One of the problems with all these analysts that are telling you that it's going to cost $37,000 to build an American iPhone or $100,000 to buy an American computer."
"They're trying to prop up a status quo that the megacorporations want to keep going. They want to outsource everything. They want to hire cheaper non-American labor."
"They are willing to say and do anything to convince you that it can't be fixed, that it can't come back, that America is this helpless, neutered, post-relevant empire, and it is just not the case."
"How do I know that? Because I have to make stuff in America every day because I work in the defense industry. The stuff that Anduril makes every day is not actually that different from a computer. My drones are basically computers. They have memory, a GPU, a CPU, sensors, batteries, a rugged integration."
"The only difference between an Anduril attack drone and a laptop is a keyboard and a screen. That is not that hard to figure out, especially for a guy like me who started Oculus and comes from the consumer electronics space."
"We're not going to let people lie about what America can and can't do anymore. We're just going to do it."
I don't care about this at all.

The communist instinctively sets out to destroy traditional “stigmas” because the communist is aware that those stigmas are what hold good communities and societies together.

DOJ should investigate whether this scheme to deceive Alaska voters violates 18 USC 241.
If these Democrat operatives acted in concert to put a candidate on the ballot with the same name as the incumbent with the intent to deceive voters who support Sen. Sullivan into wasting their votes, that could be an illegal conspiracy against rights.
BREAKING: NYT reports that operatives with Democratic Alaska U.S. Senate candidate Mary Peltola’s campaign were behind the effort to find & recruit a candidate named Dan Sullivan to run against incumbent GOP Senator Dan S. Sullivan in an effort to confuse voters and peel votes from him.
Specifically, NYT says they have reviewed text messages and documents that reveal in summer 2025, a Peltola staffer received instructions from campaign staffers to find as many people named Dan Sullivan in Alaska as possible.
The staffer complied, going through voter records, and compiled a list. The operation “involved secret trips to far-flung Alaskan communities and the appearance of a mysterious Midwestern operative, who traversed the state using a fake name and made his pitch to would-be candidates over beers at brew pubs.”
Per NYT:
“The plan worked. This spring, a retired teacher from a tiny fishing village along the Alaska Panhandle, reachable only by air and sea, announced his candidacy for Senate. His name was Dan J. Sullivan.”

CROSSING THE LINE: Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, has thrown her support behind Democratic Alaskan gubernatorial candidate Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins as well as his nonpartisan running mate for lieutenant governor Zac Johnson.
While there are multiple Republicans running in the ranked-choice voting contest, President Donald Trump has endorsed Bernadette Wilson.

CS Lewis on why “dumb blue collar people” usually do not fall for the same terrible ideas that the “educated elite class” so often does:
“Why, you fool, it’s the educated readers who can be gulled. All our difficulty comes with the others. When did you meet a workman who believes the papers? He takes it for granted that they’re all propaganda and skips the leading articles. He buys his paper for the football results and the little paragraphs about girls falling out of windows and corpses found in Mayfair flats. He is our problem: we have to recondition him. But the educated public, the people who read the highbrow weeklies, don’t need reconditioning. They’re all right already. They’ll believe anything.”
– CS Lewis, That Hideous Strength
… Or Romans 1: “Claiming to be wise, they became fools.”
I'd like to the obvious had a little something to do with it.....
but those are rookie numbers folks. We need to get that percentage of loss to like 70 or 80 before 2028
Fox News has lost 27% of its viewership. What's pathetic about this fake news article covering it is it doesn't get at the real reason. The article claims it's because of Trump - but that's just spewing the fake news talking points that Trump isn't popular, which isn't true.
The reality is this: 1) Conservatives started leaving Fox in 2020 after they called Arizona for Biden and started showing more signs of shifting left, 2) The older generations that still watch traditional TV are gradually dying off, people are turning toward other ways to get their news, especially on X and following their favorite news personalities. Fox averages 2 million viewers - I get 2 million views on average over 2 weeks on X.
