Even more than in the past, Trump and the MAGA movement have brought key elements of fascist politics into the Republican Party, and a second Trump presidency is likely to be significantly more authoritarian than the first one.

To help us understand the dynamics of power and conflict in the Middle East from a radical standpoint, Three Way Fight looks at a website that starkly assesses the Israeli government’s genocidal goals while debunking anti-imperialist illusions about Iran and the so-called Axis of Resistance.

So much has been already said about Donald J. Trump, Trumpism, and the amorphous mass known as his “base” that it hardly seems worth revisiting the topic almost eight years after his fateful descent down Trump Tower’s golden excavator.
