RMG #SayItAgainSunday: The Propaganda Wolf in Journalism’s Clothing: The American Media Hits Mute Bu
As we have looked on the, current, bloodshed taking place in Gaza, we are being reintroduced to a familiar theme. No, it is not the conflict itself, but rather the Israel-friendly propaganda being forwarded by the American media. At a time where solid journalism and an effective rendering of the facts is sorely needed, we are asked to believe that Israel is merely acting in self-defense and has done nothing to instigate the conflict that is occurring in Gaza. In order to unde

RMG Flashback: Breaking News NDAA & Freedom of Speech 2016-12-27
There's a new Red Scare sweeping the land folks; a neo-McCarthyism that's taken hold of those in government - or rather a desire to scapegoat another country in light of a tremendous Dem loss last November. This RMG broadcast from December of 2016 explains the Countering Foreign Propaganda and Disinformation Act that was part of the 2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) that President Obama signed into law on Christmas Eve of last year.

The American Far Right’s, Racism’s & Neo-Liberalism’s Horrific Monster Bash
Some pretty ghoulish things have been taking place in our society, and in particular, in our nation’s capital. The terror of economic uncertainty – due in large part to the nightmarish games that are being played by the majority in our government’s House of horrors – continually grips us. We find ourselves in a real-life geopolitical H.G. Wellsian War of the Worlds – except in our case, it takes the form of the death-from-above through drone strikes that have devastated the l

On Venezuela’s Regional Elections: Some Elephants in the Room
Here are some observations the corporate media is unlikely to make even though they are key to understanding the opposition’s defeat. Venezuela’s opposition was supposed to receive 3 million more votes than the government in the regional elections of October 15 according to the international media and the main pollster they rely on.

RMG Thought Of The Day: The Trump Kool-Aid
When you really think about it, has this ever worked out in American history? The spray-tanned, thin-skinned, narcissistic malcontent wouldn't have it any other way. Intelligence is alien to him and empathy is his enemy. Why is that when he says he'll make American great again, I hear dueling banjos and have visions of plantations? #DonaldTrump #news #currentevents #politics #the1 #oligarchy #USpolicies
