U.S. Ruling Class United Against China But Split on How to Counter Empire’s Decline - with Ben Norton

THE CURRENCY WAR - FOLLOW THE MONEY

BreakThrough News - Rania Khalek Dispatches

The United States is escalating a bipartisan Cold War, pumping up the military industrial complex, fueling proxy wars and gutting what’s left of the welfare state. But there is a split in the ruling class on how best to guarantee U.S. hegemony.

On one side is the far-right America First crowd led by Trump, who claim to want out of Ukraine. That’s only because they want to divert the country’s Cold War resources solely toward what they see as the ultimate enemy, China.

On the other side there are the neo-cons and liberals who want to take on Russia and China at the same. Both sides are committed imperialists with the same agenda, but they have a different pathway for how to get there.

Here to discuss how to navigate it all as the U.S. Empire gets desperate to maintain itself in an increasingly multipolar world is Ben Norton, a Latin-America based journalist and founder of the Geopolitical Economy Report.

At BreakThrough News we tell the untold stories of resistance from poor and working-class communities. At present, five corporations dominate the media landscape, including 90% of what we read, watch, listen to, and depend on for information about the world. Nowhere among the headlines do we hear the perspectives of working people and movements for social justice. Our mission is to break through the static, disinformation and fluff.

BreakThrough / BT Media Inc. is a nonprofit media and educational organization dedicated to independent, fact-based reporting and commentary on a diverse range of issues affecting the global movements for social justice.
