The Debt Ceiling Agreement is an Attack on the Working Class and on the Planet
Joe Biden and Kevin McCarthy’s deal to raise the debt ceiling is a handout to the military industrial complex and an attack on the working class and the planet.

Pentagon Leak Damages U.S. Power and Exposes Its Role in Ukraine
The leak of secret documents from the Pentagon and other U.S. agencies has revealed the role of the U.S. and NATO in the war in Ukraine. But it also undermines U.S. power by showing the world how the country’s intelligence agencies have failed.
