12:15-2:00 Danny Sheehan, Continuing Course on ‘Trajectory of Justice’




(5-14-2015): ‘’14th Amendment – Equal Protection of Law’’

This class focuses on the Equal Protection of Law provision in the first clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.

Five years after the ratification of the Fourteenth Amendment, the Slaughterhouse Cases determined that United States citizenship, and not state citizenship, would be affected by the Fourteenth Amendment, therefore, it would not restrict policing powers of the state. It was also determined that the Fourteenth Amendment was specifically intended to protect the rights of former slaves, therefore, undermining the broad intention of due process and equal protection of law. Because of this, progressives were forced to use selective inclusion of specific instances of protection under the due process of law provision of the Fourteenth Amendment.

Furthermore, because of the ruling of the Slaughterhouse Cases, the Equal Protection of Law provision could only be applied to former slaves so that the moderates had to, once again, determine conceptual devices to decide the parameters that would allow a group or individual equal protection of law. Such parameters are discussed at length.

Why did the court choose such a narrow definition of the Fourteenth Amendment with the ruling of the Slaughterhouse Cases? There is a discussion of the shift of consciousness that occurred with the presidential election of 1876 to explain this reactionary shift.

Professor Sheehan gives two examples of cases he litigated that were based on provisions of the Fourteenth Amendment: Silkwood v. Kerr-McGee and Morton v. Mancari.

This concludes the second part of the lecture series. Phase three will discuss how we apply the Constitution to create tools to confront upcoming issues: climate change, the rise of the national security state, and military conflict between the Northern Industrial Alliance and Asia.

3-4. John Mearsheimer: ‘’Great Power Politics in the 21st Century’’

Program #MEAJ002. Recorded in Budapest, Hungary on November 8, 2022.




Empires rise and fall from Greek and Roman times down to the British and the French to the present-day U.S. Some lasted for centuries others mere decades. There are always new powers that want to rule the roost. For many, military power is closely linked to economic well-being. But once the cash register starts emptying overall decline is not far behind. It’s clear that in the 21st-century global dominance is a contest between the U.S. and China. Russia is dangerous but is relatively weak, witness its ineptitude in Ukraine. The National Intelligence Council is a top-level U.S. government agency that produces reports projecting global trends. Not surprisingly, it identifies Beijing as a “potential rival” to Washington that “will

probably have the largest economy, surpassing that of the U.S. a few years before 2030.”




John Mearsheimer is the R. Wendell Harrison Distinguished Service Professor in the Political Science Department at the University of Chicago. He is the author of numerous books including Why Leaders Lie, The Great Delusion, and co-author of The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy.

12-1 Dave Emory, “For the Record #1271 - Interview #10 with Jim DiEugenio about ‘JFK Revisited’

POSTED BY DAVE EMORY ⋅ NOVEMBER 16, 2022 ⋅ POST A COMMENT




This broadcast continues our visits with Jim DiEugenio–author of Destiny Betrayed and JFK Revisited–selected by Oliver Stone to write the screenplay for his latest documentary.

Jim begins by relating Oliver Stone’s address to the Cannes Film Festival, following the screening of JFK Revisited.

Noting the evidentiary archives assembled and credentialed by the ARRB, he noted that “conspiracy theory” has become “conspiracy fact.”

Recorded on Veterans’ Day of 2022, we noted Oliver Stone’s own service as a decorated combat infantryman in Vietnam, and recapped how JFK was withdrawing the U.S. from Vietnam when he was killed.

As we transition into analysis of the ballistic and medical/forensic evidence, a telling quote frames the discussion of CE399 (the “Magic Bullet”) and the situation in Parkland Hospital on 11/22/1963:

JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass by Jim DiEugenio; Skyhorse Publishing [HC]; Copyright 2022 by Jim DiEugenio; Introduction Copyright 2022 by Oliver Stone; ISBN 978–1‑5107–7287‑8; p. 225.;

. . . . [Josiah] Thompson gave an important speech at the 2003 Duquesne University JFK Assassination Conference. He revealed that, in a 1993 interview, O.P. Wright’s widow—who also worked at Parkland Hospital—said that more than one nurse had approached her I the twenty-four hours after the assassination because they had found bullets on gurneys. . . .’’

1-1:30 Richard Wolff, "Economic Update”.




The year 2022 produced a daunting, long list of serious problems associated with the economy (inflation, rising interest rates, stock market decline, deterioration of the environment, war, labor uprising, etc.). More than ever, the victims and critics of the problems of 2022 identified them as symptoms of a systemic problem, namely the capitalist system. On the one hand, capitalism is working as it always has, but that is now a problem. At its center capitalism prioritizes profit and profit maximization and we show how they are the core causes of the system's dysfunction now for all but a tiny minority at its top.

1:30-2 The Chris Hedges Report #1

JAN 5 • 31M

The Chris Hedges Report Podcast with Mickey Huff & Nolan Higden about the dangerous bifurcation of the United States into antagonistic tribes that can no longer communicate.

Democratic debate and dialogue have all but vanished in the United States. There is widespread censorship imposed by social media platforms, private corporations about which we know nothing, while they know everything about us. Mainstream news outlets champion censorship and deplatforming in the name of democracy. Brian Seltzer, for example, on CNN justified banning Donald Trump form social media because, he said, “reducing a liar’s reach is not the same as censoring freedom of speech.” Sean Hannity on Fox News spent 40 minutes talking over former New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, the same tactic CNBC host Rick Santelli used to shut down debate about COVID-19. The impulse is to silence opponents rather than engage in dialogue and debate. This extreme polarization, as Steven Levitsky and Daniel Ziblatt write in How Democracies Die, is one of the primary signs of a dying democracy. Nolan Higdon, a lecturer at Merrill College and the Education Department at University of California, Santa Cruz and Mickey Huff, the director of Project Censored and president of the nonprofit Media Freedom Foundation, join me to discuss this dangerous inability to communication among antagonistic groups and their new book Let’s Agree to Disagree: A Critical Thinking Guide to Communication, Conflict Management, and Critical Media Literacy.

2-2:30 The Chris Hedges Report #2.

December 14




The Chris Hedges Report Podcast with Dennis Kucinich on the folly of the proxy war in Ukraine and how the military-industrial-complex has become the enemy from within.




There was once a wing of the Democratic Party that stood up to the war industry. J. William Fulbright. George McGovern. Mike Gravel. William Proxmire. But that was decades ago. The new Democrats, especially with the presidency of Bill Clinton, became shills not only for corporate America but the arms industry. No weapons system is too costly. No war, no matter how disastrous, goes unfunded. The massive military budget, with $858 billion in military spending allocated for Fiscal Year 2023, an increase of $45 billion over the Biden administration’s budget request, and nearly $80 billion over the amount appropriated by Congress for the current fiscal year, keeps growing. When 30 members of the party’s progressive caucus recently issued a call for Joe Biden to negotiate with Vladimir Putin they were forced by the party leadership and a war mongering media to back down and rescind their letter. What happened to the Democratic Party? Why has it become impossible to question war and the massive expenditures on arms? Why is such questioning political suicide? Why can’t a Democrat ask, especially at a time of economic hardship and huge deficits, how much we are going to divert to the war in Ukraine which has already consumed some $ 60 billion – as much as we spend on the State Department and AID -- with no end in sight? Joining me to discuss the extinction of anti-war Democrats in Dennis Kucinich, a former presidential candidate, who served eight terms in the House of Representatives before the Democratic Party gerrymandered his district to ensure his defeat

2:00-3:00 Caroline Casey, "Visionary Activist Show:" Rebroadcast

Political and Catastrophic Climate Chaos, join with

Caroline in welcoming Robert Ovetz, author of

“We the Elites -Why the US Constitution serves the few.”



Ovetz examines the Constitution for what it is – a rulebook for elites to protect capitalism from democracy. Social movements have misplaced faith in the Constitution as a tool for achieving justice when it actually impedes social change through the many roadblocks and obstructions we call ‘checks and balances’. This stymies urgent progress on issues like labor rights, poverty, public health and climate change, propelling the American people and rest of the world towards destruction.



Robert Ovetz’s reading of the Constitution shows that the system isn’t broken. Far from it. It works as it was intended. Robert Ovetz is a Senior Lecturer in Political Science at San Jose State University. He is also author of “When Workers Shot Back” & editor of Workers’ Inquiry and Global Class Struggle.”
