Tomgram: Mandy Smithberger, Letting the Pentagon Loose With Your Tax Dollars

Tomgram: Mandy Smithberger, Letting the Pentagon Loose With Your Tax Dollars Posted by Mandy Smithberger Who doesn’t remember, as a child, making that Christmas wish list for Santa and his elves? As it happens, in this century -- and in the post-Christmas season, no less -- a Pentagon already sporting the highest budget ever is still making such wish lists, officially known as “unfunded requirements lists,” for the orange-haired Santa in the White House and especially his Mitch McConnellized elves in Congress. (The hope: to up the already sky-high presidentially recommended national security budget by an additional $18 billion). The U.S. Navy, for instance, has a modest $6 billion wish list that includes yet more of the most expensive weapons system...

Coronavirus Crisis Makes Clear Pentagon Should Get No More Money This Year for Its ‘Wasteful War Machine’: 60+ Groups

"We cannot continue spending billions of dollars on weapons of war while people across the country struggle to buy food, pay rent, and survive a pandemic." byAndrea Germanos, A letter sent Wednesday to the congressional leaders urged them to focus on "the national pandemic response and economic relief for people across the United States rather than providing more money for the Pentagon's already overflowing coffers." (Photo: Shutterstock) Not a dime of additional funding should be appropriated this year to the Pentagon's already bloated budget, which has enabled endless war while resources that could have helped the nation better respond to the coronavirus crisis have gone "chronically underfunded." That's the message of a letter (pdf) to congressional lea...

Venezuela accuses U.S., ‘Israel’, in alleged coup plot with assassinations and kidnappings

Anthony Faiola Venezuela’s top government spokesman Wednesday called the country’s former spy chief a “traitor,” a “mercenary” and a “slave” to the United States, and accused him of working with opposition leaders not only to overthrow the government but also to kill President Nicolás Maduro, his wife and other senior government officials. Communications Minister Jorge Rodríguez said authorities had foiled a plot this month that would have involved an invasion by Israeli, Colombian and American agents, the seizure of military bases, a raid on the central bank and the assassination or kidnapping of several senior officials. Rodríguez made the claims less than 48 hours after The Washington Post published an article based on hours of exclusive interviews with Gen. Manuel ...

Along the way, they would raid military bases in the socialist country and ignite a popular rebe...

Henry Kissinger Calls for a New Post-Covid World Order

By Mike Whitney Global Research, Henry Kissinger thinks the Coronavirus is a threat to his precious New World Order, so he wants President Trump to do whatever he can to protect the system. In an opinion piece that was published in the Wall Street Journal on Friday, the former Secretary of State urged Trump to launch a grand project, like the Marshall Plan, to unify the allies and convince them that the Uncle Sam can still rally the troops in a time of crisis. Here’s Kissinger: “Drawing lessons from the development of the Marshall Plan and the Manhattan Project, the U.S. is obliged to undertake a major effort in three domains. First, shore up global resilience to infectious disease…Second, strive to heal the wounds to the world economy….Third, safeguard the principles o...

China Bashing, a Bipartisan US Obsession

By Stephen Lendman Global Research, For bipartisan US hardliners and their establishment media press agents, any pretext will do to bash China and other sovereign independent nations on the US target list for regime change. Blaming China for spreading COVID-19 outbreaks plays out daily in the US, its own gross failings and wrongdoing given short shrift or ignored. The US under both right wings of its war party consistently and repeatedly shifts blame for its war on humanity onto others. China is a prime target, COVID-19 the latest pretext, its authorities falsely blamed for spreading outbreaks — instead of praising how effectively they addressed the issue, far better than any other countries, world’s different from Trump regime bungling and indifference to the problem....

US Blame Game Twist: Suing China for COVID-19 Outbreaks

By Stephen Lendman Global Research, No evidence suggests that COVID-19 originated in a Chinese lab or from bat-eating Chinese people. Writer Allen Yu explained that no Chinese tradition of bat-eating exists. Videos suggesting otherwise weren’t from Wuhan or elsewhere in China. Filming was “in Palau or Indonesia, in locales where bats have traditionally been consumed as food,” said Yu, adding: The bat-eating theory doesn’t hold up. “According to current research, it is not likely that bat (or other) consumption” of wild animals caused COVID-19. Researcher Larry Romanoff explained that “Japanese and Taiwanese epidemiologists and pharmacologists have determined that the new coronavirus (COVID-19) almost certainly originated in the US.” In September 2019, Japanese ci...
