EDITOR—Scott Ritter explains to Judge Napolitano how he was taken off an airplane at JFK bound for Russia by US agents who also confiscated his passport without showing proper credentials and judicial documents. Scott also denounces the complicity of the US State Department with Ukraine’s fascists who have created a special agency to hunt down and punish and even murder people marked by the Kiev regime as an “information terrorist”, in defiance of all Constitutional guarantees to free speech, illegal searches and other US citizen rights. Judge Napolitano offers his professional help so Scott can defend himself and sue the US government for breaking the Constitution and engage in the persecution of people and organisations that oppose US foreign policy around the globe.

BRUCE LERRO—Although Neoliberal Democrats, being upper middle class, have more control over their minds than working class dogmatists they can still reify their emotions, making them “rigid states” rather than processes that can be changed by cognitive changes in interpretations, explanations or assumptions. Neoliberal Democrats, like everyone else has a need for social connection, but as an upper-middle person they are surrounded by most people who are not like them. Yet they must find commonality with them became they want them to join the Democratic Party. Because they are more or less oblivious of the social class distinctions, they find ways to avoid talking about them. They are most emotionally sensitive to race relations, since most African-Americans and Latinos are not upper middle class.

INDRAJIT—America is a Ponzi scheme because, well just do the napkin math yourself (this won’t be exact at all, but good enough). America has promised $35 trillion to creditors and revised GDP down to $28.26 trillion last year. And their GDP is mostly smoke and silk scarves, AKA horseshit. America can’t pay off their debt without spooking the horses, but as long as they don’t have to, it doesn’t matter. As long as some new suckers buy their treasuries (tribute), they can pay off the old suckers. A classic Ponzi.

BRIAN BERLETIC—Long before headline grabbing protests, color revolutions, armed conflicts and even war, the US spends years laying the groundwork to politically capture a targeted nation. Part of this process involved building up cadres of indoctrinated young people through fellowships and scholarships who eventually work their way into a targeted nation’s media, political system, and academia. The US maintains a large number of programs including its various “Young Leaders Initiatives” folding young people into Western personal and professional networks as well as providing funding for starting pro Western political, media, and educational organizations. These cadres eagerly serve Western interests at the expense of their own nation’s sovereignty and best interests as a means of maintaining their place within the personal and professional networks they were included in through such “exchanges.” Nations can combat this interference by creating their own pipelines through sovereign educational systems, producing journalists, political leaders, administrators and professors who work for their own nation’s best interests, culture, and values.

Guest Host RUSSELL DOBULAR and the panel—including Jimmy Dore— examine why most corporate comics sell out, often using the same meme across their platforms. Careerism explains much of their conformity, of course, a label they would probably furiously reject if called out on their behaviour. Others are simply mediocre.
