[ad_1] Working for the Man has always sucked, and they even write songs about it. Some people thrive in a structured environment with set expectations and defined rules, while others simply cannot be contained by a 9-to-5 job and daily commute. The entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well inside the anarcho-capitalist community, but sometimes you just need to be inspired to make a change. Scott Armstrong’s new course, “How To Become An Entrepreneur”, walks students through a step-by-step process for transforming their lives and breaking away from paycheck slavery. This program is for those looking to create a side hustle,…

[ad_1] What is a Robertsism? It’s a term I like to use to describe memorable quotes from Chief Justice John Roberts that infuriate the right and leave one wondering whether Roberts really believes what he is saying. For example, during Trump’s first term, Roberts famously rebuked the president for calling out “Obama judges” as political actors.

Barbara in April, he uttered another one: “It’s a new world, but it’s the same Constitution.” Read Full…

[ad_1] From Payne v. State, decided last week, in an opinion by Justice Benjamin Land: Hannah Payne was sentenced to life in prison plus 13 years for the murder and false imprisonment of Kenneth Herring and the possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. In response to Payne’s motion for new trial, the assistant district attorney assigned to the case, Deborah Leslie, filed a brief that contained non-existent cases and cases that do not stand for the proposition asserted in the brief. In an order largely prepared by ADA Leslie, the trial court denied Payne’s motion for…

[ad_1] The ceasefire entered its 38th day on Friday following an interview with Fox News on Thursday evening in which President Donald Trump said that retrieving Iran’s enriched uranium is only necessary for “public relations.” “I don’t think it’s necessary except from a public relations standpoint,” Trump said. “I think it’s important for the fake news that we get it. I’m the one that said we are going to get it. And we’re going to get it.” Aboard Air Force One on Friday morning, Trump said he would make a decision soon on whether to lift sanctions he had imposed…

[ad_1] What would it take for tens of millions of US-Americans to take to the streets on a regular basis, rising in a sustained mass movement to cancel business as usual pending the removal of a virulent fascist regime atop the most lethal superpower in world history, before it’s too late? I’m not talking about a single day national protest of an aspiring “king” or against “billionaire class oligarchy.” I mean a serious, ongoing movement for US-American regime change from the bottom and up, forcing the hand of the nation’s rulers. What would flip that switch? Genocidal Racism and Concentration…

[ad_1] Dark forces seek to colonise the future to ensure it remains subordinate to accumulation, not dignity. Talk of the future is not utopian fantasy but affirmation this order is intolerable and impermanent. Antonio Berni, Argentina. Juanito Laguna (triptych), n.d.
