Zohran Mamdani VICTORY | Kshama Sawant RUNNING For Congress | No War But CLASS War | US Capitalism

#usnews #uspolitics #RevolutionaryBlackoutNetwork #geopoliticsinconflict #middleeastnews #usimperialism #Trump #runningindependent #kshamasawant #classwar #zohranmamdani #midtermelection #minimumwage #dsa


Generated Summary:

Main Topic:

The video discusses the implications of Zohran Mamdani's victory, Kshama Sawant's congressional campaign, and the need for a class-based analysis of US politics, particularly concerning war, imperialism, and the role of the Democratic party. It also covers the recent conflict between Iran and Israel and the US's involvement.

Key Points:

  • Zohran Mamdani's Victory: The speakers express concern that Mamdani's victory could be a "tranquilizing drug" for the left, leading to complacency and a focus on primarying Democrats instead of building independent socialist movements and mutual aid. They question whether Mamdani will truly challenge the establishment and if his supporters will support Kshama Sawant, an independent socialist candidate.
  • Kshama Sawant's Congressional Campaign: Sawant is running as an independent socialist against Adam Smith, a pro-war Democrat. The speakers emphasize the importance of supporting her campaign and criticize the DSA and AOC if they fail to endorse her. They highlight Smith's pro-war stance and his connections to the military-industrial complex and the Zionist lobby (APAC).
  • Class War vs. Identity Politics: The speakers stress the importance of analyzing political issues through a class lens, rather than focusing on age or other identity-based divisions. They argue that even young politicians like AOC can be sellouts to the ruling class.
  • Critique of the Democratic Party: The Democratic party is portrayed as beholden to big business interests, Wall Street, weapons manufacturers, and the health insurance industry. They are seen as enforcers for the capitalist class and war-mongers, regardless of occasional disagreements with Republicans.
  • Iran-Israel Conflict and US Imperialism: The speakers discuss the recent conflict between Iran and Israel, arguing that Israel is an outpost of Western capitalism. They criticize the Democrats' "fake opposition" to Trump's actions, pointing out their own history of supporting war and imperialism. They highlight the dangers of escalating conflict and the need for international working-class solidarity against US imperialism.
  • Call for International Working-Class Action: The speakers advocate for international working-class solidarity, mass strike action, and shutting down the capitalist war machine. They emphasize the role of labor movements, particularly dock workers, in refusing to transport weapons. They call for revolution everywhere.

Highlights:

  • The critique of "celebrity worship" around politicians like Mamdani and the call for holding them accountable.
  • The strong condemnation of Adam Smith's pro-war record and his labeling of anti-genocide protesters as "left-wing fascists."
  • The emphasis on the need for independent socialist movements and a rejection of the Democratic party.
  • The call for international working-class action, including mass strikes and shutting down ports to disrupt the capitalist war machine.
  • The analysis of Israel as an outpost of Western capitalism and the US's role in funding its military actions.

Generated Summary:

Main Topic: The video discusses Huawei's strategy of releasing open-source AI models optimized for its Ascend AI chips and how this approach contrasts with the US's AI strategy, potentially giving China an advantage.

Key Points:

  • Huawei's Open Source AI Strategy: Huawei is releasing open-source LLMs (Large Language Models) designed to work optimally with its Ascend AI chips. This aims to drive hardware sales and build a complete AI ecosystem.
  • Targeted Approach: Unlike the US focus on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), Huawei is focusing on specialized AI models for specific sectors like government, finance, and manufacturing.
  • Hardware Optimization: Huawei's strategy involves tightly coupling its AI models with its hardware, allowing for optimized AI solutions.
  • Developing Markets: Huawei's approach is likely to resonate well in developing countries where price sensitivity is a key factor.
  • US Strategy Critique: The video criticizes the US's focus on attracting investors with buzzwords like AGI, arguing that it leads to less practical and useful AI products.
  • Huawei's Hardware Design Philosophy: Huawei designs hardware to function in suboptimal environments, unlike Cisco, which requires clean, cooled server rooms.

Highlights:

  • Huawei's open-source strategy is a key measure for its Ascend ecosystem strategy, which aims to accelerate the adoption of AI across various industries.
  • The video argues that the US is hyper-focused on investors and not on building products that solve people's problems, while China is focused on building and shipping usable products.
  • The speaker believes that Huawei's business proposition of less technically impressive but more focused LLMs tied to their hardware seems more appropriate than what many companies in the United States are doing.

Video Description:

The editor of The Grayzone, Max Blumenthal, sat down with J-Speak's Rick Sanchez recently to discuss the recent turmoil in the Middle East. Blumenthal detailed the cooked intel that nearly sparked a war with Iran.


Generated Summary:

Main Topic: The video discusses how allegedly "cooked intel" and the influence of Israel and its allies within the Trump administration nearly led the US to war with Iran. It also touches on the current state of Israel and its internal issues.

Key Points:

  • Cooked Intel: Max Blumenthal reports that during the Trump administration, key figures like CIA Director John Ratcliffe and SenCom chief Michael Kurilla were allegedly feeding Trump disinformation from Israeli sources (Mossad, Netanyahu aids). This included claims about Iran's imminent nuclear breakout capacity and plans to transfer a nuclear warhead to Yemeni Houthis.
  • Susie Wilds' Role: Then-White House Chief of Staff Susie Wilds is accused of isolating Trump, ensuring he only heard this pro-Israel narrative, and excluding dissenting voices like Tulsi Gabbard. Blumenthal claims Wilds previously worked directly for Benjamin Netanyahu, even helping with his election campaigns.
  • APAC's Influence: The CEO of APAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) allegedly cultivated a relationship with John Ratcliffe since he was a freshman member of Congress, ensuring access and influence within the Trump administration.
  • Israeli Coup: Blumenthal describes this situation as an "Israeli coup of US intelligence" aimed at pushing the US into bombing Iran.
  • Trump's Motives: Trump is portrayed as wanting a Nobel Peace Prize and believing he could manage a limited strike without further escalation, but he underestimated Israel's destabilizing agenda.
  • Israel's Objectives: Netanyahu's primary goal was to get the US to bomb Iran.
  • Damage to Israel: Iran inflicted significant economic damage on Israel, targeting its knowledge economy and tech sector, including the Weizmann Institute and Microsoft offices.
  • Internal Issues in Israel: The video highlights internal divisions within Israeli society, particularly between secular and ultra-Orthodox Jews, and the growing trend of negative net migration.
  • Western Elites and Culture: Western elites are frightened by the growing support for Palestine, as demonstrated by the rapper's stance against the IDF.
  • Blinken's Background: Secretary of State Tony Blinken comes from a long line of Israel lobbyists.

Highlights:

  • The claim that the White House Chief of Staff was essentially a Netanyahu employee, controlling access to the President and filtering information.
  • The assertion that APAC cultivated the CIA director to ensure Israeli intelligence had access to the Trump administration.
  • The discussion of the economic and psychological damage inflicted on Israel by Iran.
  • The analysis of the internal divisions within Israeli society and the challenges it faces.
  • The point that Israel is currently experiencing negative net migration.

Generated Summary below:

Main Topic: The video discusses the outrage and media firestorm surrounding Bobby Vylan's chants of "Death to the IDF" and "From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free" at Glastonbury, contrasting it with the comparatively muted response to the alleged atrocities committed by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) against Palestinians.

Key Points:

  • Double Standard: The speaker argues that there's a stark contrast between the condemnation of Vylan's chants and the lack of outrage over alleged IDF actions, including the killing of unarmed civilians seeking humanitarian aid.
  • IDF Actions: The video cites a report from the Israeli newspaper Haaretz detailing alleged orders for IDF soldiers to deliberately shoot at unarmed Palestinians near food distribution sites. It also lists a series of alleged war crimes committed by the IDF.
  • "From the River to the Sea": The speaker defends the chant "From the river to the sea," arguing that for many, it represents a call for equal rights for all Palestinians living between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea, not the eradication of Israel.
  • Criminal Investigations: The speaker criticizes the criminal investigations launched against Bobby Vylan and the Irish band Kneecap for their pro-Palestinian stances, while those who arm the IDF are not investigated.
  • Misrepresentation: The speaker accuses media outlets of misrepresenting Vylan's chants, falsely claiming he called for the death of Israelis, rather than the IDF.
  • Anti-Semitism: The speaker argues that conflating Jewish people with the actions of the IDF is a form of anti-Semitism.
  • Irony: The speaker points out the irony that those condemning Vylan for calling for the death of the IDF are the same ones supporting policies that lead to the deaths of IDF soldiers.

Highlights:

  • The speaker emphasizes the alleged hypocrisy of Western media and politicians in condemning chants against the IDF while downplaying or ignoring alleged IDF atrocities.
  • The video presents a strong defense of the chant "From the river to the sea," arguing that it is not inherently anti-Semitic.
  • The speaker predicts that those complicit in the alleged genocide will eventually be held accountable.

U.K. punk duo Bob Vylan released a statement on Tuesday morning responding to the controversy surrounding their Glastonbury performance over the weekend, in which they led chants of “Death to the IDF” and “Free Palestine.”

“We are not for the death of Jews, Arabs or any other race or group of people,” they said in a post on social media. “We are for the dismantling of a violent military machine. A machine whose own soldiers were told to use ‘unnecessary lethal force’ against innocent civilians waiting for aid. A machine that has destroyed much of Gaza.”

“Video footage and audio from Bob Vylan and Kneecap’s performances at Glastonbury Festival on Saturday has been reviewed,” the Avon and Somerset police revealed in a Monday statement. “Following the completion of that assessment process we have decided further enquiries are required and a criminal investigation is now being undertaken.”^[[1] https://archive.ph/pCKQp]

NOT THE FIRST. NOT THE LAST.

TODAY, A GOOD MANY PEOPLE WOULD HAVE YOU BELIEVE A PUNK BAND IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT TO WORLD PEACE. LAST WEEK IT WAS A PALESTINE PRESSURE GROUP, THE WEEK BEFORE THAT IT WAS ANOTHER BAND.

WE ARE NOT FOR THE DEATH OF JEWS, ARABS OR ANY OTHER RACE OR GRO UP OF PEOPLE. WE ARE FOR THE DISMANTLING OF A VIOLENT MILITARY MACHINE. A MACHINE WHOSE OWN SOLDIERS WERE TOLD TO USE 'UNNECESSARY LETHAL FORCE' AGAINST INNOCENT CIVILIANS WAITING FOR AID. A MACHINE THAT HAS DESTROYED MUCH OF GAZA.

WE, LIKE THOSE IN THE SPOTLIGHT BEFORE US, ARE NOT THE STORY. WE ARE A DISTRACTION FROM THE STORY. AND WHATEVER SANCTIONS WE RECEIVE WILL BE A DISTRACTION.

THE GOVERNMENT DOESN'T WANT US TO ASK WHY THEY REMAIN SILENT IN THE FACE OF THIS ATROCITY? TO ASK WHY THEY AREN'T DOING MORE TO STOP THE KILLING? TO FEED THE STARVING?

THE MORE TIME THEY TALK ABOUT BOB VYLAN, THE LESS TIME THEY SPEND ANSWERING FOR THEIR CRIMINAL INACTION.

WE ARE BEING TARGETED FOR SPEAKING UP. WE ARE NOT THE FIRST. WE WILL NOT BE THE LAST. AND IF YOU CARE FOR THE SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE AND FREEDOM OF SPEECH, WE URGE YOU TO SPEAK UP, TOO.

FREE PALESTINE.

Generated Summary:

Main Topic: The Supreme Court's recent ruling on the power of federal courts to issue nationwide injunctions, specifically in the context of immigration and birthright citizenship.

Key Points:

  • The Issue: The Supreme Court addressed whether federal district court judges have the authority to issue injunctions that apply nationwide, rather than only to the specific parties in the case before them.
  • Background: Federal judges have increasingly issued nationwide injunctions, particularly in response to Trump administration policies. This has become a point of contention.
  • The Ruling: In a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that district court judges generally do not have the power to issue universal nationwide injunctions. Their power is limited to providing relief to the parties directly involved in the case.
  • Case or Controversy Clause: The ruling is rooted in Article 3, Section 2 of the Constitution, which defines judicial power as extending to "cases" and "controversies." Courts are meant to resolve specific disputes brought before them, not to issue broad pronouncements on the legality of government actions in the abstract.
  • Checks and Balances: The discussion emphasizes the importance of checks and balances between the three branches of government (executive, legislative, and judicial). The ruling is seen as a check on the power of the judiciary.
  • Amy Coney Barrett's Opinion: Amy Coney Barrett, who wrote the majority opinion, argued that federal courts should not exceed their power and that concerns about an "imperial presidency" should not lead to an "imperial judiciary."

Highlights:

  • The video explains the difference between injunctions that apply to specific plaintiffs and those that apply nationwide.
  • It clarifies that the Supreme Court did not rule on the merits of birthright citizenship in this particular case, only on the scope of federal court injunction power.
  • The video provides historical context, noting that nationwide injunctions have become more frequent in recent years.
  • The speaker discusses the potential for judicial overreach when individual district court judges can effectively dictate policy for the entire country.
  • The speaker praises Amy Coney Barrett as a judge who follows legal principles rather than partisan lines.

Generated Summary:

Main Topic: The video analyzes the Zionist backlash following Zohran Mamdani's New York primary victory and what it signifies about the changing political landscape and the declining influence of Zionism.

Key Points:

  • Zionist Meltdown: Mamdani's victory triggered a significant negative reaction from Zionist groups, highlighting their fear of losing control and influence through democratic processes.
  • Shifting Political Landscape: The election result indicates a growing repudiation of Zionism and a shift in public sentiment, particularly among young people, making Israel a political liability.
  • Co-option Attempts: Established Democratic figures like Chuck Schumer are attempting to co-opt Mamdani, similar to how they allegedly co-opted AOC, to moderate his positions and integrate him into the existing political structure.
  • Grassroots Movement: Mamdani's success is attributed to a motivated grassroots energy and an understanding that Zionism is toxic, representing a positive development in democratic politics.
  • Zionist Billionaire Influence: The video discusses the influence of Zionist billionaires, their coordinated efforts to control political narratives and actions, and their alarm at the prospect of losing influence with Mamdani's potential victory.
  • DSA Skepticism: One of the speakers expresses skepticism towards the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), viewing them with suspicion and criticizing their ties to the Democratic Party.
  • Comparison to Corbyn: The video draws parallels between the attacks on Mamdani and the smear campaign against Jeremy Corbyn, emphasizing the need to stand firm against such tactics.

Highlights:

  • Mamdani's clever response during a mayoral debate when asked about Israel's right to exist ("with equal rights for all").
  • Discussion of Mamdani's family background, including his father's influential work on colonialism and his mother's career as a filmmaker.
  • Analysis of the tactics used by Zionist groups, including WhatsApp groups of billionaires plotting political strategies and attempts to link Mamdani to anti-Semitism.
  • The observation that many prominent Zionists who advocate for Israel's safety would never choose to live there themselves.

Following that logic, it means you were watching him in 2020, when he first interviewed Sanders? Around this time, Joe said he was voting for Bernie Sanders.

Anyway...

All is well, peace.

Here is a related video on Joe Rogan. I posted it on this community two days ago.

It gives background on Bernie Sanders first appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience.

Yes, Joe Rogan was for Bernie Sanders in 2020.

Again, the video explains it in simple terms.

I do have a community for his show.

I only post viral or interesting interviews that I think people should watch and not be afraid to listen to.

To restate, I am not afraid to listen to and learn from non-status quo sources or dissidents.

And the guy pushed COVID misinformation, among other conspiracy theories, to millions of his followers. Guy is no better than the propaganda machine he claims to be against.

The video went over the 'misinformation' smear by the MSM.

Putting aside conspiracy and conspiracy theories.

Again, it is political tribalism.

Divide and conquer strategies work to continue to divide the working class.

In this case, it was another of the "are you for or against [insert boogeyman]" (Joe Rogan/COVID restrictions).

Makes me wonder if he ever supported “the left.”

Well, the video explains how Rogan was on 'the left' to a degree (when he supported Bernie's populist policies).

The mainstream media propaganda works; that is why they spend so much on media and politics.

Divide and conquer: the working class is always being divided with political tribalism; another example would be the duopoly.

Joe Rogan advocated for working-class issues, nowhere near what Bernie Sanders spiel is, but they were populist issues.

Now, we know the Bernie Sanders experiment failed, or he only wanted to go so far, similar to Justice Democrats.

It seems to be just the start.

Israel and the United States started this conflict; we will see if Iran can finish it.

No one is pretending here.

They are all capitalist and imperialist governments, but the United States has relied on forever wars to enrich our oligarchs and fund mass murder.

Military leaks and listening to independent journalists can help enlighten us all.

Soft versus hard imperialism—there is a difference.

The Western regimes are the aggressors and the cause of escalation, United States foreign policy being the major player.

The United States took over this role after the British Empire declined in WWII.

True, he is in the tech-bro (oligarchy) bubble of admiration and no pushback (or if any, only minor pushbackand criticism).

Living under a rock?

The working class loves him and his podcast.
