Black Peace Advocate Wonders If Trump Can Reign in CIA President Trump’s cancellation of the CIA’s longstanding mission to train, arm and finance a jihadist overthrow of the Syrian government is recognition that “the Obama war has basically failed,” said Ajamu Baraka , spokesperson for the newly organized Black Alliance for Peace and the Green Party’s 2016 vice presidential candidate. Given that the military and intelligence services rebelled against President Obama’s attempts to cooperate with the Russians in Syria, last year, “it remains to be seen to what extent these elements of the ‘deep state’ are going to obey that directive,” said Baraka, who is also an editor and columnist for Black Agenda Report.
Trump Wants to Be a Caudillo, But He Lacks Allies The Philadelphia-based Duboisian scholar Dr. Anthony Monteiro said President Trump “would like to set up a Latin American-style strongman kind of government. “But, the problem is, Trump doesn’t have many allies, “anywhere – in the ‘deep state,’ in his own party, or among the American people -- to establish such a strongman rule.” If Trump overreaches and attempts to take excessive power in his own hands, said Monteiro, “this will lead to a growing popular demand, which the ‘deep state’ and the Democrats and Republicans will seize upon to move quickly to remove him from office through impeachment.” He said the U.S. is racked by economic and political crises, including a crisis of legitimacy. “We have never seen a crisis of this type.”

Florida prison officials have reportedly labeled the NABPP a “violent street organization.” Tito “Fist” Rivera , of the United Panthers Movement, told Black Agenda Radio producer Kyle Fraser: “Historically, whenever you are more than two people doing something that the system doesn’t want you doing, they consider that a gang.”
