Manipulated Anti-Trump Protests

Manipulated Anti-Trump Protests by Stephen Lendman Americans need shoving to take to the streets and protest for or against anything or anyone. It doesn’t happen spontaneously. With few exceptions at most, various groups from activists to anarchists aren’t behind anti-Trump protests. Nor were women turning out in large numbers nationwide and abroad. Dark forces in Washington, corporate boardrooms and other centers of power manipulated Americans to turn out in large numbers, before, during and after Trump’s inauguration - part of a plot to delegitimize and undermine him. It began to prevent his nomination, later based on the phony pretext of Russian US election hacking, ...
Relentless Media War on Trump

Relentless Media War on Trump by Stephen Lendman Throughout his campaign and post-election triumph, media scoundrels bashed him relentlessly - an unprecedented war, aimed at delegitimizing and undermining him, continuing post-inauguration. Earlier The New York Times claimed his candidacy caused “serious damage…to the country (and) its reputation overseas” - ignoring 24 horrific Clinton co-presidency, Bush/Cheney and Obama years, their relentless war on humanity at home and abroad harming millions. Trump antagonists aren’t about to go quietly and gently into the good night. Rage against him is unrelenting, uncompromising, hugely emotional, furious over Hillary’s ...
Israel Intends Large-Scale Palestinian Land Theft

Israel Intends Large-Scale Palestinian Land Theft by Stephen Lendman Israeli settlements flagrantly violate international law. Over 600,000 settlers occupy stolen Palestinian land. Fourth Geneva prohibits an occupying power from transferring its citizens to the territory it occupies, as well as displacing people from their land to permit it. Israel wants historic Palestine exclusively for Jews, Palestinians denied their fundamental rights - terrorized for decades with no international support. Ma’aleh Adumim is Israel’s third largest settlement, home to over 37,500 residents. Extremist settlers and Knesset hardliners want it annexed. On January 22, Knesset Ministerial ...
WaPo Rains on Trump's Inaugural Parade

WaPo Rains on Trump’s Inaugural Parade by Stephen Lendman The neocon, CIA house organ Washington Post called Trump’s inaugural address “a sharp disappointment” - no surprise from a broadsheet maliciously denigrating him throughout the political season and post-election period. Instead of praising an admirable straight talk address, omitting phony rosy scenario hyperbole, WaPo lied, claiming he “painted a false picture of an impoverished, crime-ridden country that has been cheated and victimized by Washington elites and grasping interests abroad.” Fact: In his 16-minute address, Trump only touched on how bad things really are for most Americans, punished by ...

NYT Editors Bash Trump’s Inaugural Address by Stephen Lendman In contrast to Obama’s consistent demagogic doubletalk, painful to hear, Trump delivered an admirable inaugural address, abstaining from rosy scenario hyperbole, historic if able to follow through on pledges made - no easy task given enormous obstacles he’ll face. He repudiated America’s interventionist agenda, while vowing to put the nation’s interests first. His tone was polar opposite longstanding policies pursued by bipartisan neocons infesting Washington. Confrontation between the executive and congressional branches seems likely if he tries fulfilling pledges made. After 24 deplorable Clinton ...
Russia's Premier Blasts Obama

Russia’s Premier Blasts Obama by Stephen Lendman Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev used Facebook to blast Obama’s duplicity, braking his promise like virtually all others of importance. Russia’s then president was assured of US nuclear missile defense flexibility in bilateral talks. It wasn’t to be, or phony reset in US/Russia relations. They’ve been more adversarial under Obama than perhaps any time during the Cold War years - one of numerous despicable acts on his watch. His agenda reflected pure evil, including making it hard for Trump to repair things - his top geopolitical priority if he’s up to the challenge, a key test of whether he’ll ...

Changing of the Guard in Washington by Stephen Lendman It happens every four or eight years. America’s 22nd Amendment states: “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.” “But this article shall not apply to any person holding the office of President when this article was proposed by the Congress, and shall not prevent any person who may be holding the office of President, or acting as President, during the term ...

CNN Sinks to New Low by Stephen Lendman Trump accurately called it “fake news,” a label describing all media scoundrels - substituting managed news misinformation and Big Lies for hard truths and full disclosure, especially on issues mattering most. Laughably calling itself “the most trusted name in news,” CNN president Jeff Zucker shamelessly said its “credibility is higher than ever.” It didn’t earn the nickname Clinton News Network for fair and balanced political reporting. Its consistent fake news is a national disgrace. On Wednesday, it sunk to a new low, provocatively imagining inaugural day disaster - Trump’s assassination along with the ...

Anarchist Group Calls for Inauguration Day Disruption by Stephen Lendman Inauguration day 2017 may resemble a Hollywood thriller or horror film, depending on how things turn out. Nationwide protests are planned, especially in Washington, aiming for more than raining on Trump’s inaugural parade. Crimethinc.com calls itself an “anonymous collective action…everything that evades control… renegade(s) breaking ranks…the spirit of rebellion…a secret society pledged to…producing inflammatory ideas and actions…” Ahead of Trump’s inauguration, it urged mass disruption, a checklist of provocative actions - expressing outrage “at the prospect ...

Bashing Trump on His Day of Days by Stephen Lendman Media scoundrels never quit, or apologize for rubbish they print and air - propaganda and other forms of fake news, not reliable reporting. Given its global reach and influence, The New York Times is especially reprehensible, the self- styled newspaper of record mocks legitimate journalism. Its press agent Hillary reporting and vicious anti-Trumpism throughout the political season and aftermath made it a laughing stock - continuing on Trump’s inaugural day, traditionally a window without criticism for America’s new president. Once in office, he’s fair game, assessing his policies when known. Published on his inaugural ...

New Obama Administration Guidelines on CIA Use of Information on Americans by Stephen Lendman Big Brother watches everyone virtually everywhere. Americans are more spied on than ever before in US history. Obama’s so-called new privacy guidelines, designed to limit the CIA’s use of information on Americans, changed nothing. Dirty business as usual continues. Reporting to the Director of National Intelligence, the agency has multiple missions, including collecting, coordinating, analyzing and disseminating information related to national security, along with conducting other operations as directed by the National Security Council. They include overthrowing democratically ...

Obama’s Painful Long Goodbye by Stephen Lendman In another press briefing after his last hurrah, Obama hyped America’s fantasy democracy, its press agent media serving up fake news for powerful interests while suppressing vital truths, and maybe for last official time bashing Russia - among other issues discussed. Obama: “…(I)t is in America’s interest and the world's interest that we have a constructive relationship with Russia. That’s been my approach throughout my presidency.” Fact: In the post-Cold War era, Obama and his neocon infested administration did more than the Clintons and Bush/Cheney to create and sustain adversarial bilateral ...

WaPo Rains on Trump’s Inauguration Day Parade by Stephen Lendman On the eve of Trump’s inauguration, the neocon, CIA-connected Washington Post called January 20 “the most ominous inauguration day in modern history” - saying he’ll enter office with the lowest approval rating of any previous US incumbent. WaPo failed to explain he and Hillary were the most unpopular presidential aspirants in US history. Respondents in various polls rejected them both, in spite of one-sided media praise for her, rage against him. Nor did WaPo discuss America’s debauched political system - a money controlled one-party state with two right wings, fantasy democracy, not the real ...

Obama Rejects Clemency for Wrongfully Convicted Leonard Peltier by Stephen Lendman Peltier was politically imprisoned in 1976. He was framed for the deaths of two FBI agents, killed during a 1975 Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, South Dakota shoot-out. He's serving two consecutive life terms for activism, not murder or any other crime. He’s one of countless victims of US viciousness, languishing in gulag hell unjustly. Throughout his long ordeal, he’s been denied parole, clemency, a pardon, due process justice on appeal (including by the US Supreme Court), or retrial for serious prosecutorial and FBI irregularities, including fabricated evidence framing him. He was targeted ...

Kellogg Community College is being sued after campus police arrested three conservative activists and college students while they were handing out pocket Constitutions and signing students up for a conservative student organization. As detailed in video footage obtained exclusively by Campus Reform, a KCC student and two fellow conservative activists spent two to three hours handing out Constitutions and recruiting for a Young Americans for Liberty (YAL) chapter on campus in September before they were accosted by administrators and ultimately arrested for trespassing. The three activists in the video are Nathan Berning, a Stanford student and employee of the Leadership Institute; Isaac ...

Bashing Trump’s Justifiable Outrage Over Disgraceful Press Coverage by Stephen Lendman With few exceptions, media scoundrels relentlessly bashed him throughout the political season. Vilification continues daily post-election, inventing reasons to denigrate him, an unprecedented example of political presstitution at its worst. An open letter to him from the US press corp, written by Columbia Journalism Review editor-in- chief and publisher Kyle Pope, warrants a reader response. Trump and his team can speak for themselves. Pope: “You’ve banned news organizations from covering you.” Fact: False! He leveled sharp criticism as justified, including blasting CNN as fake ...

US Demagogues Hype Nonexistent Russian Threat by Stephen Lendman Russia bashing is the national pastime, an imperial rage not about to end with Obama’s departure - even if Trump intends working cooperatively with Putin. Bipartisan congressional neocons will challenge any rapprochement steps he takes. Three outgoing administration officials likely had their last say in an official capacity, taking full advantage to bash Russia irresponsibly. In Davos, Switzerland at the billionaire’s ball (aka World Economic Forum), Joe Biden railed against Russia, sidestepping hard truths, blustering Big Lies, disgracefully calling Russia the biggest threat to the international order. ...

Trump Opponents Ignore US Fascism Wrapped in the American Flag by Stephen Lendman Large-scale protests are planned for inauguration day, January 20. Anti-Trumpism ignores what’s most important - a debauched system revolutionary change alone can fix, each wing of America’s one party state as corrupted as the other. Ordinary people have no say whatever. Voting is a waste of time. RefuseFascism.org headlined “IN THE NAME OF HUMANITY WE REFUSE TO ACCEPT A FASCIST AMERICA.” It’s deep-rooted, not something arriving under Trump. Fascist deep state dark forces run things. Presidents, key congressional members and the courts serve their interests. Anti-Trumpists ...

Chelsea Manning to Be Freed by Stephen Lendman Manning was wrongfully arrested, imprisoned, horrifically treated, and sentenced to 35 years of brutalizing confinement for courageously exposing US war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan. Whistleblowers revealing government wrongdoing deserve high praise, not police state prosecution. Manning revealed important information all Americans have a right to know, including: • the Collateral Murder video, exposing the killing of unarmed Iraqi civilians by a US Apache helicopter crew;
• the Afghan War Diary, revealing uninvestigated civilian casualties and private military contractor abuses;
• the Iraq War Logs, ...

Foreign officers who attended top Pentagon schools were later accused of rape, murder, genocide, and coups, according to State Department reports The Defense Department trained at least 17 high-ranking foreigners at some of its top schools who were later convicted or accused of criminal and human rights abuses in their own countries, according to a series of little- noticed, annual State Department reports to Congress. Those singled out in the disclosures included five foreign generals, an admiral, a senior intelligence official, a foreign police inspector, and other military service members from a total of 13 countries, several of which endured war or coups. Several officers committed ...

Will Assange Agree to Extradition Following Manning’s Commutation? by Stephen Lendman On January 12, WikiLeaks tweeted “(i)f Obama grants Manning clemency Assange will agree to US extradition despite clear unconstitutionality of DoJ case.” He’s a political refugee, given asylum in Ecuador’s London embassy since 2012, unable to leave because of fabricated rape charges. A sealed indictment wrongfully charges him with spying under the long ago outdated 1917 Espionage Act, a WW I relic. He’s a conduit, not a spy, involved with others, publishing leaked material they’re given on vital issues. With Manning’s sentence commuted, will he agree to ...

Putin Blasts Anti-Trump Prostitutes by Stephen Lendman Putin diverged from his usual measured diplomatic rhetoric to blast what he called anti-Trump prostitution. Washington’s criminal class and supportive media scoundrels are worse than street whores, without moral scruples, Putin stressed. He spoke candidly and straightforwardly after remaining largely silent during months of groundless accusations of Russian US election hacking - absurd and hugely offensive charges only brainwashed or dim-witted people believe. “I don’t know Mr. Trump personally. I have never met him and don’t know what he will do on the international arena. So I have no grounds to attack him or ...

A Deep State Orchestrated Storm Awaits Trump in Office by Stephen Lendman After the most unprecedented denigration of a presidential candidate in US history, the worst may be yet to come, beginning Friday with Trump’s inauguration as America’s 45th president. Pro-Hillary dark forces call him illegitimate. Media scoundrels beat on him relentlessly. Whatever he does or says or doesn’t do or doesn’t say is criticized. Nothing in memory resembles what’s gone on since mid-2015. The problem isn’t Trump. It’s America’s debauched system - fantasy democracy, not the real thing. Leaders like Obama govern by the script handed them, doing the bidding of ...
