Jacob Hornberger: How U.S. Sanctions Work Their Evil

“While killing people with socialist policies might or might not be the aim of rulers in socialist countries, killing people is the aim of the U.S. government with its sanctions. The idea is that as people die from the sanctions, those who are still alive will have the incentive to rise up and oust the socialist regime from power.  But of course, revolutions inevitably mean more death and destruction. U.S. officials don’t care. All they care about is regime change.”

The Great Beer Conspiracy to Overthrow the U.S.

“As suddenly as the Hun threat arose, it disappeared. The armistice that brought peace to the continent went into effect on Nov. 11, 1918, just two weeks after the committee launched its investigation into machinations of German-American brewers.

Ron Paul: Who Killed Martin Luther King…And Why?

“Dr. Martin Luther King’s stance against the Vietnam War led him to be shunned by much of the liberal establishment that applauded his work on civil rights in the US. Was challenging the US warfare state the third rail that cost MLK his life?”

“The DEA’s Special Operations Division is one of several tools the government uses to hide the origins of criminal investigations nationwide, in potential violation of constitutional protections. In a report released today, ‘Dark Side: Secret Origins of Evidence in U.S. Criminal Cases,’ Human Rights Watch documents the use of parallel construction by federal and local police agencies, finding the practice is used in the United States ‘frequently and possibly even daily.'”

Senate Shuts Down Rand Paul Filibuster Against Surveillance Act Renewal

“Today’s vote means reforms to provide stronger Fourth Amendment protections from unwarranted searches will not happen and a filibuster can’t actually stop the scheduled vote. The USA RIGHTS Act is essentially dead, unless the full vote fails. (Spoiler: Since the renewal bill survived a cloture vote, it won’t fail.)”

Alfred McCoy: Tweeting While Rome Burns

“In just one extraordinary year, Trump has destabilized the delicate duality that has long been the foundation for U.S. foreign policy: favoring war over diplomacy, the Pentagon over the State Department, and narrow national interest over international leadership. But in a globalizing world interconnected by trade, the Internet, and the rapid proliferation of nuclear-armed missiles, walls won’t work. There can be no Fortress America.”
