Liberal plutocrats win a critical battle with their Biden puppet in the capitalist civil war and Trump keeps helping them


The globalist faction of the US capital (primarily consisted by the liberal plutocracy) had the chance to counterattack against the capitalists around Trump through Biden's recent victory, in the ongoing capitalist civil war.
 
Yet, despite the fact that Trump brought some serious trouble to the liberal capitalists, ironically, he came right on time to rescue them. He helped them escape from the dead end, after eight years of an utterly disappointing Obama administration. 

At the time when the liberal capitalists ran out of tricks (and social movements were pushing for real change in the US), Trump came to their rescue. Suddenly, the Obama fraud was almost forgotten and all the progressives had to align behind the liberal fraudsters in order to defeat the "creepy orange clown". After four years of anti-Trump liberal hysteria and a pandemic nightmare that also came right on time, the liberal capitalists managed to put another puppet in power. And they did it without the slightest retreat against their neoliberal order that almost wiped out the US working class all previous years.
 
Biden's victory was a disaster for the real Left in the United States. The Biden liberal loyalists, aka corporate Dems, will now demand from all wings to comply with their terms. Including "The Squad" and every other single progressive. 

As we wrote right before the election, with a potential Biden victory the corporate Dems will re-establish their position in the party against progressives, as they will be able to play the Trump-scare card for four more years. During that time, they will get all the help they want from the liberal media to bury forever the most popular Socialist policies. Simply by claiming that the Trump nightmare could return in 2024. Therefore, they will demand "unity" from all party members under their own terms, in short, under full restoration of the neoliberal status quo.
 
Well, actually Trump still helps them with his attitude. 

With his persistence to defy the election result, he justifies corporate Dems who continue to project their devotion to stop him as their sole mission. And this situation helps them distract people from policies that will help the working class. Policies which are contrary to the interests of their wealthy donors and the liberal capitalist faction they serve.
 
A first taste from Biden's cabinet clearly shows that the liberal plutocracts want to restore neoliberal order beyond any compromise. Their ultimate political goal is not only to make progressives fully comply with their agenda in order to take full control of the Democratic Party. They also want to take over the Republican Party, using the never-Trump Republicans. 

 
Capitalists around Trump have now very few options. Despite the fact that Trump's attitude helps their liberal opponents in the capitalist war, it seems that it's the only thing they got right now. Considering that Trump managed to build a solid army of fanatically devoted, ultra-conservative followers, the capitalists around him will use them to escalate tension and even provoke a working class civil war. Especially in case of an elevated threat against them from the liberal capitalist faction during Biden's presidency. 

Therefore, it is almost certain that things will not be that easy for the liberal capitalists either. Furthermore, Biden is certainly not the type of politician who could inspire progressives. Not even close. And this means that the corporate Dems may find extremely difficult to keep the party in one piece under their neoliberal terms.
 
As we wrote recently, progressives could take advantage of their popularity and join the effort for a third party that will truly serve the American people. They've already proved that they don't need corporate money to get re-elected, after all.
 
We should expect more chaos during the next four years from the triple conflict between the liberal elites, the far-right and the real Left, inside and outside the US political duopoly. Yet, despite the fact of being in the most disadvantageous position for now, the real Left could also take advantage of the capitalist chaos to beat both neofascism and neoliberalism.

A historical turning point has just occurred ... and it is not the Trump assassination attempt

globinfo freexchange   The biggest crime of our century, that is, the genocide of Palestinians by the Zionists has been almost forgotten. And while everyone is distracted by the war in Ukraine and the assassination attempt against Donald Trump, a development of historic proportions took place. The development either escaped from the corporate media radars in the West, or, deliberately ignored.   The integration of Russia's and India's payment systems marks the definite rejection of the Western SWIFT system, dominated by the US dollar, and the complete detachment of BRICS from this system.   As Kitco News reported recently:   The trend of de-dollarization continues to gain traction despite many analysts saying the threat is overblown as India and Russia have announced a new partnership that will see their respective payment systems – India’s RuPay and Russia’s MIR – integrated to allow for seamless cross-border transactions without the need for U.S. dollars.  The partner

Exposed: How Biden & Ukraine’s Fascists Worked Together to Block Peace with Russia

BreakThrough News   Newly released treaty negotiation documents show that Ukraine and Russia were very close to ending the war—more than two years ago, in April 2022. But U.S. imperialists and NATO have worked with and strengthened the right-wing in Ukraine to achieve their long-term goals in the region, including endless war, no matter how many people die. Brian Becker is joined by Eugene Puryear, co-host of The Freedom Side , to discuss the newly revealed documents showing how the Ukraine war nearly ended two years ago but were sabotaged by the intervention of the White House and the Ukrainian far-right. They discuss how Ukraine’s economy has been totally mortgaged to U.S. and European interests. 

BlackRock & Wall Street banks are profiting from Israel's crimes in Gaza, UN says

Israeli documents show expansive government effort to shape US discourse around Gaza war

As the Gaza war rages, Israeli funds target US college campuses and push to redefine antisemitism in US law   by Lee Fang and Jack Poulson   Part 3 - Substantial Israeli government involvement in American politics   Haaretz and the New York Times recently revealed that Chikli’s ministry had tapped a public relations firm to secretly pressure American lawmakers. The firm used hundreds of fake accounts posting pro-Israel or anti-Muslim content on X (formerly Twitter), Facebook and Instagram. (The diaspora affairs ministry denied involvement in the campaign, which reportedly provided about $2m to an Israeli firm for the social media posts.) But that effort is only one of many such campaigns coordinated by the ministry, which has received limited news coverage. The ministry of diaspora affairs and its partners compile weekly reports based on tips from pro-Israel US student groups, some of which receive funding from Israeli government sources . For example, Hillel International, a co-foun

The time has come for liberal capitalists to test their favorite puppet against Trump

Genocide Joe to be replaced by Kamala Harris   globinfo freexchange   Genocide Joe was originally the convenient pick of the liberal capitalists and his election was just a victorious battle for them in the ongoing capitalist civil war . Yet, everybody knew (and it was more than obvious), that old-Joe has now become a lost case for the corporate Democrats and their liberal wealthy donors.   After four years, the time has come for the liberal capitalists to test Kamala Harris against Trump.  The timing couldn't be more convenient. Especially after the Trump assassination attempt, it was certain that Genocide Joe was finished. The greatest demagogue and popular manipulator wouldn't let the opportunity go wasted. From the first moment, he took advantage of the incident and boosted his image as a political "anti-establishment" hero in the eyes of the conservative Americans. And after Biden's disastrous performances in various debates and public appearances, everyone k

Israeli documents show expansive government effort to shape US discourse around Gaza war

As the Gaza war rages, Israeli funds target US college campuses and push to redefine antisemitism in US law   by Lee Fang and Jack Poulson   Part 1 - Redefining antisemitism   Last November, just weeks into the war in Gaza, Amichai Chikli, a brash, 42-year-old Likud minister in the Israeli government, was called into the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, to brief lawmakers on what could be done about rising anti-war protests from young people across the United States, especially at elite universities. “ I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again now, that I think we should, especially in the United States, be on the offensive,” argued Chikli. Chikli has since led a targeted push to counter critics of Israel. The Guardian has uncovered evidence showing how Israel has relaunched a controversial entity as part of a broader public relations campaign to target US college campuses and redefine antisemitism in US law. Seconds after a smoke alarm subsided during the hearing, Chikli assured the l
