Imagine if four years into our war in Iraq we had only occupied 20 percent of it and lost 1.2 million men. Would anyone say the US is winning?
No? Then how in the hell can you say Russia is winning?!

You never see corporate media go out on a limb unless it's to project the idea that Donald Trump is a totally different man—a better one—than he actually is.
Here's The Atlantic engaging in the typical corporate media game of soft-promising that Trump is going to be a regular president any day now.

In the President's big speech at Davos, he keeps referring to America's need for Iceland. He came here to ask for Greenland.

No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.

Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
