Federal law designates the secretary of state as “responsible for the continuous supervision and general …
Clinton Cash Goes Missing for a Controversial 2014 NYU Speech By Pam Martens and Russ Martens
New York University, which has been rocked by revelations of providing multi-million dollar residences, forgivable mortgages, and sweet-deal, in-house financing for luxurious vacation homes to an elite group of staff and faculty, is now linked to the Hillary and Bill Clinton cash-by-the-truckload scandal.

TPP Reduces Human Trafficking and Child Labor to Misdemeanors – Stan Sorscher
Last week, President Obama’s credibility on trade policy took another punch in the neck. The President’s best remaining pitch was his promise of strong enforceable standards for labor and the environment. Last week, that collapsed in a breath-taking display of cynicism. On May 8, President Obama went to Nike in Oregon, to insist that TPP would fix the broken promises of past trade …
How NPR Is Doing Right-Wing’s Economic Dirty Work on Debt By Dean Baker
Billionaire Peter Peterson is spending lots of money to get people to worry about the debt and deficits rather than focus on the issues that will affect their lives.

Corrupt FIFA Has Clinton Foundation Ties; World Cup Host Qatar Gave Millions – Jackie Kucinich

BILL CLINTON PAID THROUGH SHELL COMPANY – STEPHEN BRAUN
The newly released financial files on Bill and Hillary Rodham Clinton’s growing fortune omit a company with no apparent employees or assets that the former president has legally used to provide consulting and other services, but which demonstrates the complexity of the family’s finances.

The Trans-Pacific Partnership: A Deeply Flawed Partnership – Mel Gurtov
The American people have become used to government trickery in foreign affairs—wars and interventions based on lies and falsified evidence, “national security” used to justify the whittling away of privacy, classification of documents to hide embarrassing disclosures, massaging of budget figures to mask outrageous spending on arms, and demands for new weapons when already in possession of an unmatched conventional …
Obama’s Ugly Show of Presidential Petulance – Jim Hightower
When the going got tough, Barack got in a huff, and then he got gruff. President Obama has worked himself into such a tizzy over the TPP that he’s lashing out at his progressive friends in Congress. He’s mad because they refuse to be stereotypical lemmings, following him over this political cliff called the Trans-Pacific Partnership. It masquerades as a …
The Crisis of the Left and the Decline of Europe and the United States – Roberto Savio
The victory of the Conservative Party and the debacle of the Labour Party in the recent British general elections is yet another sign of the crisis facing left-wing forces today, leaving aside the question of how, under the British electoral system, the Labour Party actually increased the number of votes it won but saw a reduction in the number of …
