Daniela Klette: It’s a Settling of Accounts with This Particular History of Resistance

Trial statement at the Verden Regional Court, March 25, 2025. I agree with the defense motion to dismiss. I would, however, like to add a few things. After the RAF [Red Army Faction] ended its urban guerrilla project in April, twenty-seven years ago, Burkhard Garweg, Volker Staub, and I were confronted with the BKA’s ongoing public manhunt for the alleged “last former RAF militants.”[1] In fact, Burkhard Garweg was only dragged into this public manhunt after the RAF had disbanded. The state’s response to the RAF’s self-dissolution was consistent with Bad Kleinen—the shooting of Wolfgang Grams—and the continued heavy sentences...

Hostile Takeover - Tech Capital & the Coup of the US Government, pt. 2: Endgames & Ideologies, with Matthew N. Lyons & Becca Lewis

Youtube video description: CPE is hosting a three-part series on tech capital and the administrative coup of the US government. Hostile Takeover: Tech Capital and the Coup of the US Government will feature a series of conversations among subject matter experts, strategists, and organizers trying to make sense of how and why the forces of capital—led by billionaire tech barons—are so determined to seize the administrative state and what its evisceration means for working-class communities in the near and long-term.

The DOGE and the Neoreactionaries [ThreeWayFight.org]

[This article is mirrored from ThreeWayFight.org, where it was posted on March 2, 2025.] By Matthew N. Lyons I anticipated a drive toward dictatorship, but I didn’t anticipate DOGE. When Donald Trump was reelected president, I (like many other people) knew he would make a grab for power beyond anything in his first term. I’ve traced Trump’s increasingly intimate relationship with far right politics, from his mutually beneficial arrangement with the alt-right in 2016 to his efforts in 2024 to remake the Republican Party itself as his personal vehicle. Like many other critics, I noted that the erosion of structural...
