  • The Machinery of Terror

    Chris Hedges - Jan 11th 2026 2:18pm EST

    The Missing Link – by Mr. Fish Subscribe now I have seen the masked goons who terrorize our streets before.

To this day, many […]

  • Grand Illusion

    Chris Hedges - Jan 8th 2026 8:34am EST

    “We live in a world in which you can talk all you want about international niceties and everything else, but we live in a world, in the real world, Jake, that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world that have […]

  • America the Rogue State

    Chris Hedges - Jan 5th 2026 8:39am EST

    Murder Most Foul — by Mr. Fish Subscribe now The ruling class of the United States, severed from a fact-based universe and blinded by idiocy, greed and hubris, has immolated the internal mechanisms that prevent dictatorship, and the external mechanisms designed to protect against a lawless world of colonialism and gunboat diplomacy. Our democratic institutions […]

  • America is a Gangster State

    Chris Hedges - Jan 3rd 2026 12:01pm EST

    The kidnapping of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro and his wife solidifies America’s role as a gangster state. Violence does no generate peace. It generates violence.

    Chris Hedges - Dec 27th 2025 10:24am EST

    Sold Out – by Mr. Fish Subscribe now At the start of the 20th century, the British Empire was, like our own, in terminal decline.

    Chris Hedges - Dec 15th 2025 9:30am EST

    See No Evil Hear No Evil Speak No Evil — by Mr. Fish Subscribe now First, it was Israel’s right to defend itself.
