Grab ‘n Go – Investigative Thriller Follows Covert Efforts to Control the Source of Life But Comes Up Short on Analysis

…worried about foreign interests capturing scarce US resources, as against domestic greedheads doing their thing and the “normal” workings of capitalism. The film calls our attention to the domestic investment factor, but ever so slightly, when it drops the tidbit that US public pension funds are also involved in the plundering of Arizona water. Perhaps it’s not possible to sort out who is doing what, but getting it straight matters greatly at a t…

Will Dems Find Moxie to Resist Immoral GOP Tax Plan?

…corporate beneficiaries of 2004’s repatriation bonanza actually cut their domestic employment levels. Falsification #3, another completely empty meme, insists that domestic economic growth has been slower than it needs to be because of confiscatory taxation. In fact, U.S. corporations are already absolutely awash in capital (why do you suppose the Dow-Jones index keeps setting records?), in part because of the historically low cost of borrowing (…

A New Book Traces the Influence of Racism and Imperialism on White Christian Feminism

…o reevaluate their aims, and many of them chose to turn their attention to domestic Christianization as their new mission front. During a time of heated schisms among fundamentalist and evangelical groups and amidst the resurgence of the Ku Klux Klan rallying against immigrants, people of color, Catholics, and Jews, mainline Protestant women’s church councils increasingly emphasized interdenominational, interreligious, and interracial cooperation….

Innocent Until Proven Muslim — A Q&A with Dr. Maha Hilal

…it into the understanding because people see it as a smaller problem than domestic mass incarceration. It’s an unfortunate piece of the puzzle motivated by how they [the detainees] are narratively constructed as terrorists. “The level of violence that’s sanctioned towards a group of people depends on the extent to which they’ve been dehumanized.” Humanity has been a big theme in discussions of the current genocide[6] in Gaza and the West Bank, an…

Shameful GOP Tax Plan Taxes Reality

…and historically unprecedented cash holdings—but they barely invest in new domestic jobs despite having these piles of investment-ready gelt lying around. Studies show that some 92% of U.S. publicly-traded corporations that effectively paid a rate of 20% or less between 2008 and 2015 actually cut their domestic employment levels. The record likewise clearly shows that these cash-loaded corporations have firmly declined to share their record profit…

Will House “Freedom” Group’s Core Racism Go Unchallenged?

…o-called “Freedom Caucus” in the lower chamber that is determined to slash domestic lifeline programs, it’s the chamber’s entire GOP majority. Boehner, McCarthy, and Scalise all made this pretty clear at this morning’s press conference. The way the “moderate” leadership intends to manage the chamber’s 36 Freedom Caucusoids appears to consist mainly of accommodating them on core policy, if not on rules. The corporate media chatter on about the cons…

Obama Changes Course on Islam

…doubt it primarily refers to Muslims, the NSS acknowledges other types of domestic terrorism more than Brennan does. Overall, I see this administration as living up to many of points Obama spoke about in Cairo, almost a year ago. But I agree with Marc Lynch, writing at Foreign Policy: the foreign policy may be good, but the domestic policy with respect to our rights and torture leaves much to be desired. We need more engagement as an informed cit…

The Christian Right’s Main Moral Argument Against Abortion Rights Completely Ignores This Critical Issue: It’s Time to Raise It

…certain resonance with “social reproduction feminism,” which advocates for domestic/care labor justice. And that resonance serves to bring a new perspective into the “argument.” Social reproduction feminists take the labor analysis all the way, as epitomized in Sylvia Federici’s Caliban and the Witch. They’ve long realized that devaluation, oppression, and exploitation of domestic/care labor are linked with domination and control of female sexuali…

RDBook: Wifely Submission and Christian Warfare

…simply Hidden Arts—evoking a broader range of artistry in the “feminine,” domestic realm—but in reprinting, the title was restricted to housework, possibly reflecting the movement it inspired and the generation of anti-feminist writers who saw the book as an alternative to the women’s liberation movement blooming across suburbia and the country at large. These women found in Edith Schaeffer the counterpart, the warm heart, of her husband’s call t…

Largely Overshadowed by the Election, ‘Red Pill, Blue Pill’ Transcends Standard Explanations of Conspiracy Culture Which is ‘Killing Us All’

…one constant thread that runs through the backgrounds of every right-wing domestic terrorist of the past half-century,” he writes. Why do so many of the nuts roll to the right? Money is a big part of the story. You can’t understand why Cleta Mitchell is such a vector for election fraud nonsense if you don’t take into account who is paying her. In fact, Mitchell is riding a wave of cash from groups like FreedomWorks and the Lynde & Harry Bradley F…
