What JFK tried to do before his assassination w/Jeffrey Sachs | The Chris Hedges Report "We will never know the world that could have been had President John F. Kennedy's assassination never taken place, but an inkling of how things could have been different can be found in the final months of his life. In his new book, To Move the World: JFK's Quest for Peace, Jeffrey Sachs unearths JFK's final political campaign—to establish a secure and lasting peace with the Soviet Union." "How far did JFK's efforts go? What sort of progress was made on ending the Cold War, not through the collapse of the Soviet Union, but rather through mutual cooperation and understanding? To answer these questions and more, Jeffrey Sachs joins The Chris Hedges Report." https://lnkd.in/gcecZn3N

His role in orchestrating the logistics of the Holocaust made him a symbol of Nazi atrocities. Eichmann's execution, occurring at 23:58, marked a significant moment in the pursuit of justice and accountability for war crimes committed during one of humanity's darkest chapters. #HistoricalJustice #HolocaustRemembrance HaJunk - Business Development

After the attempted assassination of President Reagan on March 30, 1981, the Lubavitcher Rebbe explained what led to it. It is a huge mistake to believe that we can expel G-d from our society and still have morality. I know. People are going to point to the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, Radical Islam, and so on and say that religion is the route of all evil. People are going to say that you can get a good person to do good things and a bad person to do bad things, but to get a good person to do bad things takes religion. It won't work. Evil people corrupt religion to serve them. That's definitely true. The bottom line is that without deference to a Higher Power, to a morality that is not governed by what I happen to be feeling in the moment, you end up with Hitler and Stalin, two people who created their own morality. G-d Almighty gave all of humankind seven laws to keep, laws that aren't about how I feel today, but about ultimate morality. 1. Don't worship idols. 2. Don't curse G-d. 3. Don't commit murder. 4. Don't steal. 5. Don't commit adultery or incest. 6. Don't eat a part of a live animal. 7. Maintain a justice system. Do these things, and you'll have a functioning society. Don't do these things, and don't be surprised by the outcome. #goodness #rebbe #lubavitcherrebbe #chabad #morality

On September 11, 2001, the United States faced one of the darkest moments in its history. The attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and the heroic stand of those aboard Flight 93 shook the nation to its core. Yet, out of that darkness, the enduring spirit of America shone through with unwavering strength, resilience, and unity. In the face of terror, countless brave souls—firefighters, police officers, and ordinary citizens—answered the call without hesitation, embodying the courage and selflessness that define the American character. Across the nation, flags were raised higher, voices spoke louder in unity, and communities stood together with a shared resolve to rebuild, to remember, and to never forget. September 11 will always remind us of the profound sacrifices made and the undying spirit that unites all Americans. It is a day that underscores the ideals of freedom and democracy that the nation stands for, and the unbreakable will of a people who rise stronger from every challenge. Today, we honor the fallen, salute the heroes, and pledge to carry forward the values that make America a beacon of hope and liberty.

White Supremacy, Terrorism, and the Failure of Reconstruction in the United States - PDF: https://lnkd.in/gPBQ7u5i Reconstruction failed in the United States because white Southerners who were opposed to it effectively used violence to undermine Black political power and force uncommitted white Southerners to their side. Although structural factors made it harder to suppress this violence, a series of policy failures proved most important. The Radical Republican-led U.S. government did not deploy enough troops or use them aggressively. Nor did it pursue alternative paths that might have made success more likely, such as arming the Black community. The violence caused Reconstruction to fail, and the victorious white supremacists embedded structural racism into the post-Reconstruction political and social system in the South. Reconstruction's failure illustrates the dangers of half measures. The United States sought to reshape the American South at low cost, in terms of both troop levels and time. In addition, the failure indicates the importance of ensuring that democratization includes the rule of law, not just elections. Most important, Reconstruction demonstrates that a common policy recommendation—compromise with the losers after a civil war—is often fraught, with the price of peace being generations of injustice. #Reconstruction #Terrorism #WhiteSupremacy #Race #JimCrow #injustice #racism #

PLEASE ignore the MAGA messaging. This is a pathetic attempt to sway the election in Trump's/Putin's favor. Stick to the plan. Ignore the Pro-Trump messaging and vote like your Country depends on it for Kamala Harris and Waltz! #NeverVoteTrump #NeverVoteRepublican #VoteHarrisWaltz2024 #VoteHarris2024
The Harris-Biden White House has largely, through their own actions, made themselves irrelevant to events that are rapidly unfolding in the Middle East. Our allies cannot rely on us and our enemies do not respect or fear us.

While it is true that fascism has arrived, don’t forget that it is a form of socialism, and nothing to do with capitalism or free markets. The notion of left versus right lacks substance when scrutinized. The term “right” can be equated to national socialism, while the so-called “center” aligns with Fabian socialism. On the other hand, the “left” represents international socialism. Remarkably, the entire left-right spectrum is entirely composed of socialist ideologies, devoid of any presence of capitalism or liberty. #TaxationIsTheft #TariffsAreTaxes #InflationIsFraud #CapitalismIsLiberty #AbolishGovernmentSchools #VivaLaLibertadCarajo https://lnkd.in/ewHUzhRU
