TRAILER: The Empire Files partners with Gazan journalists for a documentary on the Great March of Return.

Keep Empire Files independent and ad-free.

Abby and Robbie Martin give an update to the ongoing US-backed coup attempt in Venezuela, the ridiculous government shutdown over a wall that already exists, the criminal prosecution of No More Death volunteers who leave lifesaving aid for migrants crossing the desert, Rand Paul’s bromance with Trump and continued attempts to paint him as an anti-interventionist, an update on the neocons who have rebranded themselves as resistance heroes, and Trump’s ever-changing timetable on the Syria troop withdrawal.

Robbie Martin interviews twitter user @likingonline about how “Russian trolls” pale in comparison to Democratic operative David Brock’s massive #Shareblue social media operation to promote centrists.

Abby and Robbie Martin discuss the latest Russiagate news and propaganda, the effect of the Internet Research Agency compared to GCSQ/NSA online disruption programs, YouTube algorithms favoring right wing conspiracies, the shuttering down of Alt Right medium accounts, and how this crackdown is being used to censor anti-war leftists and those who are deemed ‘Russia linked.’

Robbie and Abby Martin talk about the Trump administration’s disturbing escalation of threats and provocations against North Korea, including a new national security document proposal for a “bloody nose attack” to preemptively bomb Kim Jong-Un’s nuclear capabilities, which would put tens of millions of lives on the brink of annihilation.

They also discuss the eerily similar propaganda across the corporate media about North Korea’s preparation of anthrax tipped ICBM missiles, and how reminiscent it is of the buildup to the Iraq war.
