After Elon Musk purchased Twitter, journalists pledged to migrate elsewhere on social media. But like a moth to the flame, they found that breaking up, or ignoring, is harder to do than they imagined.

Jacques-Marie BOURGET est un écrivain et journaliste, il a travaillé comme grand reporter pour des journaux comme L’Aurore, Le Canard enchaîné, L’Express, ou Paris Match. Il a couvert de très nombreuses guerres : au Viêt Nam, au Liban, au Salvador, en Irak, en ex-Yougoslavie, en Palestine, etc. Il est à l’origine de révélations de renommées mondiales, comme l’affaire Greenpeace ou l’affaire Robert Maxwell. Il a reçu de Jacques Chirac la médaille de Chevallier de l’Ordre national de la Légion d’Honneur.

Le plan d’annulation de la dette étudiante voulu par le président Joe Biden n’est certes pas une annulation totale, mais il peut tout de même avoir un impact sur la vie de millions de personnes. Ce plan est un pas en avant pour les débiteurs et les militants qui ont passé des décennies à lutter pour abolir la dette étudiante et rendre l’enseignement supérieur, longtemps promis comme la voie pour sortir de la pauvreté, abordable pour tous.

This week’s election may not have turned on the economy. Perhaps it’s because we have moved on from “It’s the economy, stupid,” to a new question, Whose economy? According to our guest on this week’s WhoWhatWhy podcast, economist and investigative journalist Nomi Prins, we actually have two economies — and they have become permanently disconnected.

The agents of the government claim the right to audit you, right? But they're our "public servants," aren't they? So surely we can audit them to make sure they are doing their job, can't we? And if not, why not? Join James for this important edition of #SolutionsWatch as we dive into the wild and wooly world of sousveillance, copwatching and public servant auditing.

With control of Congress still in the balance on the morning after the midterm election and many races decided by thin margins or still too close to call, the coming days will be filled with recounts, legal challenges, and experts (or so-called experts) providing their analysis and legal takes. To help you keep up and understand who knows what they are talking about, we have compiled a list of the most important election-related terms that you need to know.

I’m currently visiting Paris, a celebrated gastronomic paradise, and my favorite restaurant is a Chinese dive on the rue Saint-Jacques frequented by noisy students from the Sorbonne around the corner. There you can get a three-course set menu for under 10 euros. I have relatives who wouldn’t set foot in a place like this, but it’s my kind of place, what my children call a “daddy café.” (“Mommy cafés” tend to be a lot fancier and probably pass more food inspections.)

Selon une récente étude publiée dans Environmental Science and Technology Letters, le méthane qui s’échappe des gazoducs entre les têtes de puits et les installations de traitement du bassin Permien (ouest du Texas et le sud-est du Nouveau-Mexique, NdT] suffirait pour alimenter 2,1 millions de foyers. Les 213 000 tonnes métriques de méthane qui s’échappent de ce que l’on appelle les lignes de collecte sont 14 fois plus élevées que ce qui avait été constaté précédemment par l’EPA.

Do you know a liberal who insists that “both sides” are responsible for what is happening to our country? Who sees little distinction between the two major parties (“both are corporate tools”), who believes both have always “stuffed ballots,” and who identifies a global cabal — rather than Donald Trump or the Trumpified GOP — as the direst threat we face?

I have several such friends, one in particular who floated a strange theory that the Democrats tried, but failed, to rig the 2016 election.

Emily Levy is a veteran advocate for election transparency and founder of the organization Scrutineers. She was kind enough to respond to my questions regarding her work and views of our elections and democracy. This is Part 2 in our three-part series, “Defenders of Democracy.” 

Jonathan Simon: It’s no secret our democracy and its elections are in trouble. Do you see one specific danger or combination of dangers that stands out?

The secret to power and certain victory for the worker revolution lies in the fact that no government on earth can last forever in a battle against a conscious and revolutionary mass of people, if the battle continually spreads and grows in scale.  (“In a Revolutionary Hour, What Next?” 1905)

Throughout our history, there have always been groups of people that posed a threat to other humans or even humanity itself. For example, at some point, the greatest threat to others was probably the Mongol hordes, which were then replaced for a few centuries by European colonists who wreaked havoc across the globe.

Elon Musk has put self-driving cars on the streets of every city in America and has his own personal space program, but what really seems to elicit angst from the media class is his recent purchase of the social media platform Twitter. Could it really be that this is where he presents a grave and present danger?

In the Palazzo Blu, a small museum situated picturesquely along the Arno in Pisa, an exhibit on the ground floor situates Italy in an uncomfortable moment. Panels set up in an elegant room show photographs of the political ruptures that seized the city after the First World War. Called “Images from the twenty years: Pisa and the fascist regime (1922-1943),” the display shows fascist youth groups in matching jerseys performing exercises in playing fields, and older men goose-stepping in uniform with guns.

Americans are afraid of the wrong thing.

When you ask most Americans what authoritarianism looks like, they’ll describe jack-booted thugs goose-stepping up to their house to drag them away to a concentration camp.

It seems everyone is talking about technocracy these days, but what is technocracy. You may think you know the answer to this question, but you probably don't. James answers this question once and for all in today's edition of Questions For Corbett. Along the way, you'll discover that being able to answer this question is imperative if we want to be able to identify the technocratic enemy and, ultimately, derail their plans.

Every time I lost a match in high school, my tennis coach would give me some simple advice: “Change a losing strategy.” It’s what keeps coming back to me as I think about current efforts to increase confidence in our elections.

Election officials, and the media, desperately want to win back the confidence of voters but have not adjusted their game plan to fit the current situation. They do not seem to understand what people need in order to believe that elections are trustworthy. 

What you don't know won't hurt you . . . maybe. But it could change your mind about things you believe to be true. We all know this, of course, but do we really keep it in mind when we think about what we really know? And what does our tendency to exclude the unknown from our calculations say about our reduced capacity for wonder, our growing hubris, and, ultimately, the loss of our humanity? Find out in this seemingly simple but surprisingly deep "lost" episode of The Corbett Report.

My name is Wei, a believer in Marxism. I’m originally from China and currently studying philosophy at CU. I had the honor to hear in person your talk in the Platypus panel a few weeks ago.

Au cours des premières décennies de l’après-guerre, les États-Unis ont considéré l’Iran comme l’un de leurs plus proches alliés géostratégiques, surtout après que la CIA a renversé le gouvernement démocratiquement élu de l’Iran en 1953 et a rétabli Mohammad Reza Pahlavi à la tête du pays. Toutefois, depuis la révolution de 1979, qui a aboli la monarchie et instauré une république islamique, les États-Unis et l’Iran sont des ennemis mortels, en grande partie à cause du rôle qu’Israël occupe dans la région.
