Wow! What a cynical,nihilistic summary of Jim’s career! The truth obviously doesn’t feature very high on your list!

What’s the point of just reporting the news anymore when you have a president who lies constantly! The whole purpose of the news is to present people with facts!

Acosts will do well in the niche-resistance. There is no real united resistance to Trump. All that ended with the women's march. The rancor of the march's leadership between "women's issues" and "anti-imperialism" has not abated. The relationship between LGBTQ anti-imperialist activists and the Palestinian resistance movement has divided what could (should) be resistance to Trump's policy. Anti-abortion. Birthright Citizenship. Dreamers. Anti-Union. Anti-Trans. There is no united front because the professional resistors...Crooked media. Maddow. Pakman. Won't acknowledge this divide. I have a side. No surprise. The anti-imperialists are wrong about the Middle East. It's not Africa in the 1950s. There are imperial ambitions but they aren't (just) Western. The Iranians and Saudis are building their empires. People of color ,as it were, what would Franz Fanon do.
