Demonizing Antifa: Federal Prosecutions Target Radical Organizers

Matthew N Lyons

With the court cases against the Prairieland ICE protesters and the Minnesota 15, the Trump administration has ratcheted up its authoritarian power drive. The regime is trying to criminalize radical politics and grassroots organizing, as a cornerstone of its campaign to suppress all political dissent.

Who’s Afraid of Luigi Mangione? A Response to Alexander Reid Ross

Luigi Mangione’s recent alleged killing of an insurance CEO touched a wedge issue that cuts across class and across the political spectrum—the massive corruption of the health insurance industry—and created an opening for the left. A recent article by ex-leftist Alexander Reid Ross, which dismisses Mangione as expressing an American proclivity for violence, represents a counterinsurgency action in defense of the state.
