David Brooks: Left-wing populists in the US sound like Trump on trade
0 Have your say The identity politics of ‘us versus them’ are not confined to right-wingers in the US, writes David Brooks. It’s easy to argue that the American left is on the cusp of a great victory. The economic anxieties of the working class have gone unaddressed. The Resistance is passionate and politically engaged. Faith in capitalism is plummeting. Only 42 per cent of millennials embrace capitalism, according to a Harvard University poll, while 51 per cent reject it.The Republicans seem to be turning themselves into an aging minority party. Moderate Democrats are no longer a force. There are only two vibrant political tendencies in America right now: Trumpian populism and Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren-style progressivism.

As Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg prepared for his appearance before Congress this week, he is unlikely to have anticipated facing so many questions about Diamond and Silk. The Silicon Valley giant - quizzed by members of the House Commerce Committee over his company's role in the Cambridge Analytica data scandal and the social network's vulnerability to exploitation - was asked repeatedly about the Republican commentators and accused of banning their videos for political ends. "Why is Facebook censoring conservative bloggers such as Diamond and Silk? Facebook called them 'unsafe' to the community. That is ludicrous. They hold conservative views.

Hillary Clinton slams Donald Trump for ‘racist, ignorant views’ on anniversary of Haiti earthquake
Hillary Clinton has slammed Donald Trump on Twitter branding him an "ignorant racist'. Trump's former political rival was reacting to remarks reportedly made by the President during a briefing session in the Oval Office when he is alleged to have launched into a rant against immigrants. Trump was quoted in the Washington Post as having said: 'Why are we having all these people from s***hole countries come here?' during a discussion regarding plans to overhaul the immigration system in which he is said to have specifically made derogatory remarks in reference to Haiti, El Salvador and African countries. Clinton, who was defeated by Trump in the presidential election, took the opportunity to hit back on social media tweeting: "The anniversary of the devastating earthquake 8 years ago is a day to remember the tragedy, honor the resilient people of Haiti, & affirm America's commitment to helping our neighbors," Clinton said. "Instead, we're subjected to Trump's ignorant, racist views … [Read more...] about Hillary Clinton slams Donald Trump for ‘racist, ignorant views’ on anniversary of Haiti earthquake
