Bad Bunny’s slam dunk win for the culture, Pam Blondie’s impeachable performance before House Oversight, and ICE takes its Gestapo act from the streets into the halls Congress. www.charlesbursell.com
The regime’s cruelty isn’t a glitch, it’s the system working as designed. Democratic politicians and corporate media talking heads tell us to “stand up and fight back,” but refuse to dismantle the systems that breed white supremacy and capitalist power. Real democracy can’t coexist with profit and control. Abolitionist social anarchy is the only path to collective liberation. www.charlesbursell.com
A weekly offering of old and new songs for freedom, justice and solidarity with your host Peter Donalds www.charlesbursell.com
The Regime’s brazen new moves to rig elections and the everyday acts you can do to put yourself on the (very obvious) right side of history. www.charlesbursell.com
Rigging the midterms, searching for needles in the Epstein haystack, advocacy journalism challenged, and it’s time for the resistance to broaden our scope – and sharpen our demands. www.charlesbursell.com
The regime is building a techno-fascist surveillance state with you as a consumer cog. Join the dreamers and malcontents while there’s still time to defeat the despots and build a better world. www.charlesbursell.com
American Fascism takes its show on the road with its Hitleresque board of “peace.” Then, terrorizing an entire city, Secret Police Jackboots conduct another brutal public execution. Abolish ICE/CBP. End the Regime. www.charlesbursell.com
Lessons from Martin Luther King Jr., a wild ride over Greenland, and making the best of a broken America. www.charlesbursell.com
We cannot match their violence (nor should we try) but neither can we defeat the Regime with so-called “peaceful” protest. Also, normalizing state thuggery and the Venezuela fiasco. www.charlesbursell.com
The brave and righteous Twin Cities are showing the way! Find resistance training in your town. Also, the Regime triples down on racism and chaos. And, WTF is with the RFK food pyramid? www.charlesbursell.com
America’s unbridled fascism must be stopped. The problem: the only alternative offered is the outdated and exploitative “postwar rules-based order.” There is a third option. www.charlesbursell.com
Old school imperialism, taking the lessons of Jan 6 forward, and a killing cold as ICE. www.charlesbursell.com
Mamdani takes the oath and the reins, Regime racism and Israeli brutality continue unabated, and Venezuela marks a renewed U.S. hegemony. www.charlesbursell.com
Starting Thursday, January 1st 2026, The Log will air daily 10-minute segments exclusively on Substack @charlesbursell. Not to worry, the twice weekly half-hour podcasts will continue as usual on all platforms. Happy New Year! substack.com/@charlesbursell
Looking back at 2025 and ahead to 2026 with a warning: It’s more important than ever to jettison corporate news. www.charlesbursell.com
A look at the many holidays around the globe from ancient traditions to modern takes on the winter party, including mischievous (even dark) characters, and irreverent (even subversive) customs of role-reversal and debt relief. Just what we need. www.charlesbursell.com
Vanity Fair stands out among dismal Regime media. Murder week on the high seas, in Hollywood, an Australian beach, and a college campus. Medicare for all, and good elections news. www.charlesbursell.com
It’s campaign season again and Democrats are going to win big – for all the wrong reasons. Legacy media discovers mutual aid, recommended anarchist reading, and some good news: we’re not dead yet! www.charlesbursell.com
Abandoning Ukraine and Gaza, a looming U.S. State Media, SCOTUS builds a dictator, American democracy deemed “obstructed,” and are YOU a terrorist? www.charlesbursell.com
A monologue of political, cultural, and media criticism from a social-anarchist/abolitionist perspective. This episode: Person of the Year, political violence, The Regime's authoritarian-racist foreign doctrine, and more. www.charlesbursell.com
MAGA has no doubt scored wins, but it’s not particularly smart, it’s not original, it’s not even real. Also, thoughts on the DC shooter aftermath, Hegseth’s debacles, and a tribute to the great Frank Skillman. www.charlesbursell.com
Strikes and boycotts needed to bring down the Regime will require shared pain and sacrifice. Mutual Aid can not only protect us while we fight, but ultimately create a new model for when we win. And we can start right now. www.charlesbursell.com
Don’t give up on impeachment! There are (1) dozens of articles to choose from, (2) recent examples proving that public outcry still matters, and (3) several persuadable Congressional Republicans. www.charlesbursell.com
COP30 fails as the Climate Crisis continues unabated, The Orange Meat Puppet descends into madness, MTG chickens out, MAGA re-calculates, and Musk gets one thing right: the end of money. www.charlesbursell.com
