An increasing number of politicians have joined the call for an audit of the Federal Reserve, including several presidential contenders Bernie Sanders and Donald Trump.
Spike Lee is slamming the rigged political system in ads and asking South Carolina to support Bernie Sanders who he says will “Do the Right Thing.”
In January 2015, Oxfam, an international nonprofit organization that aims to eliminate poverty, published a report stating that 1 percent of the global population will own more wealth than the rest of the 99 percent combined by 2016. The Oxfam report provided evidence that extreme inequality is not inevitable, but is, in fact, the result of political choices and economic policies established and maintained by the power elite, wealthy individuals whose strong influence keeps the status quo rigged in their own favor. In addition to reporting the latest figures on global economic inequality and its consequences, the Oxfam study outlined a nine-point plan that governments could adopt in creating new policies to address poverty and economic inequality.
There is a consistent contradiction between the stated objectives of the War on Terrorism and the outcomes. Therefore we know the assumptions are wrong. Freedom has never been the goal. Continuous war is directly out of the Orwell dystopian novel: 1984. We are living that now.
Hillary Clinton received 21.7 million dollars for speaking to Wall Street, Corporations , and trade associations, but to date has not revealed the contents of those speeches and is hedging against doing so. All money Bernie Sanders received to speak was donated to a charity for low income families.
Mud slinging is pretty common in political campaigns, and that’s because most humans are hardwired to focus on the negative and try to move away from it.
Superdelegates won’t necessarily rule out a Sanders nomination; but, by design, they could, should the Democratic Party establishment feel the need to protect itself from threats — perceived or actual — to its existence.
Brazilian and Argentinian doctors publish a report on microcephaly stating it is NOT CAUSED BY THE ZIKA virus but by a chemical larvicide added to drinking water in 2014 to kill mosquitoes. The chemical is produced by Sumitomo Chemicals, a “strategic Partner” of Monsanto. NO birth defects have EVER been reported associated with Zika infection even in areas with 75% population exposed. Yet the WHO continues to cry “epidemic” and push for yet another vaccine..
The New York Times published list of big political contributors show Big Oil prominent. Fracking moguls, Farris and Dan Wilks and their families are definitely front runners with huge political contributions. Take this information as an indicator of how objective politicians are about fossil fuels(especially oil) and the environment.
Sanders also raised millions after he called for donations during his New Hampshire victory speech. He has the largest fundraising base of small donors ever seen in primary election.
New Hampshire has eight “superdelegates,” party officials that are free to support any candidate they please – even if that support does not align with the wishes of voters. Six of those superdelegates have committed to Clinton (two are still uncommited).
Unanswered questions remain about why the feds came down so hard on the protesters and occupiers [in Oregon Standoff]. One possible reason is that the federal government needs to seize the Hammond ranch for its precious metals and uranium.
The main message from Sander’s and Trump’s victories in New Hampshire is this: No more of the same old, same old.
Fourteen years ago, after the September 11 attacks on the World Trade Center, the United States government initiated its “war on terror,” with the invasions of Afghanistan in 2001, which expanded into Pakistan, and of Iraq in 2003. While the corporate media has occasionally acknowledged the 6,800 American soldiers, and the 7,000 contractors who died in Iraq and Afghanistan, they consistently ignore Iraqi and Afghani deaths, which exceed one million, giving the western public no context to understand the attacks lead by the Islamic State in Syria and Levant (ISIL).
