Ukraine has ignored the far right for too long. As have the US/NATO/Israeli thugs

Bill Moyers: Zephyr Teachout And Larry Lessig Have Only Begun To Fight

She won Ulster County with 70%, Schoharie County with 71.7%, Columbia County with 77.9% and Albany County, where they know Cuomo best, with 61.9%. Cuomo spent $60.62 per vote.

Why an Assassinated Psychologist – Ignored by US Psychologists – Is Being Honored
On November 16, 1989 in El Salvador, liberation psychologist Ignacio Martin-Baró was murdered by a Salvadoran government’s “counter-insurgency unit” created at the U.S. Army’s School of the Americas. This year, 25 years after his assassination, peace and justice activists around the world will honor Martin-Baró. Embarrassingly, the vast majority of U.S. psychologists and psychiatrists know nothing about Martin-Baró and liberation psychology. Why would mainstream mental health institutions keep U.S.

Idiot Canadian Prime Minister Opens His Big Mouth At G20 Summit In Australia And Has The Gall To Tell Putin To "Get Out Of Ukraine"
Today, I am truly ashamed to be a Canadian… I never voted for the criminals that are now occupying the Federal government in Ottawa, and I especially dislike that clown, Stephen Harper, that somehow has the gall to call himself the Canadian "Prime Minister"… The man basically is an idiot and a Jew butt kisser to an extreme….But something happened today at the G20 "summit" in Australia that really ticks me off….
