Donald Trump shakes Joe Biden's hand before a crackling fire in the White House.

Before the election, the Democrats claimed that Trump was a fascist and the fate of democracy was at stake. Now Biden promises to do all he can to facilitate Trump's success. Is further proof needed of the cowardice, duplicity and political bankruptcy of the Democratic Party?

Ocasio-Cortez and the normalization of genocide as state policy

At the #DNC, #AOC employed a variation of the tired “lesser evil” argument to excuse genocide overseas as a necessary trade-off for supposedly protecting democratic rights domestically.

I saw a reporter try (3 times) during an interview to get him to acknowledge what is happening in Gaza is genocide and he brushed it aside, frustrated at being asked the question on each occasion.

If Fain, is "proud" to vote for #GenocideJoe & throw Palestinian workers & their families under the bus, he will do the same to American workers. Fain, the UAW bureaucracy, & their pseudo-left backers (DSA, LaborNotes) are the enemy of workers everywhere.

A good example of the dead-end of "lesser evilism" politics.

The Democratic & Republican Party are carrying out the same imperialist policy. #Obama had #TerrorTuesdays, #Trump continued the drone war, and #GenocideJoe is overseeing the "final solution" to the "Palestinian question."
