The answer to corruption is publicly financed campaigns.
This should be the biggest takeaway from NY’s mayoral race.
Thanks to public financing, corrupt oligarchs are about to lose the mayoral race.

Here’s an idea for a reporter:
Gather some retired cops or MPs together and show them how ICE handles hecklers and protesters.
I guarantee you’ll get some amazing copy. Especially if your outlet lets you reprint profanity.

The United Nations Must Act in Gaza Under the Uniting for Peace Resolution
Failures of the UN Security Council and Western democracies to maintain international humanitarian law has left Palestinians ensnared in genocide, famine, and forced displacement. Despite the clear grounds for intervention, political will remains absent. In this exclusive interview for CounterPunch, international scholar Richard Falk argues that the General Assembly has the precedent and authority under the Uniting for Peace Resolution to bypass the Security Council and act decisively to protect civilians. Gaza offers a crucial test of whether the international system can prioritize people over politics.
