Central America Forward

With Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign underway, the GOP is accelerating its lies about her work as Vice President. Though responsibility for the southern border rests with the Departments of Homeland Security and Health and Human Services, they call Harris a failed “Border Czar,” deliberately mischaracterizing her early presidential assignment – to address the root causes of migration – while obscuring her accomplishments. As the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported on 6/12/24, VP Harris’ 2021 “Call to Action” has triggered major commitments from ...

They were raised on thrones so that they were literally higher then the supplicants approaching them. Any violation of these protocols suggested that an individual harbored disloyal ideas and had to be dealt with in a severe way. Law is what the authoritarian says it is. ...

This is over 50 times more deaths than America suffered with the loss of 420,000. Few were the Russian families that did not grieve. It is also rarely mentioned in US history or media that Russia was far more instrumental in defeating the Nazis than America. Quoting Irish journalist Finnian Cunningham: “Still, let’s not forget that the Soviet Union had been battling the Third Reich for three years before the British ...
