Jill Stein the first victim of the political Witch-hunt that has started by the exposed McCarthyism in America

The neoliberal regime reveals its ugliest face


The neoliberal regime reveals day by day its discusting, ugly face. McCarthyism in America comes to the surface again as the regime starts to lose control over public opinion and feels a real threat after decades. The first victim of the political Witch-hunt is the leader of the Green Party, Jill Stein. The accusations are based again on ridiculous 'facts'.

As reported by the Intercept:

It’s safe to assume the Intelligence Committee is interested in anything pertaining to Stein’s now-infamous attendance of an RT gala in Moscow, at which she was seated and photographed with Russian President Vladimir Putin and President Donald Trump’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn. Stein told The Intercept that as she has routinely appeared on RT and expects to hand over communications related to booking those TV segments and other “administrative” messages between her campaign and the Russian network, as well as “logistical” messages about the Moscow event. Stein also noted that before her Moscow visit, she had “requested to speak with either Putin or [Russian Foreign Minister Sergey] Lavrov, or someone in the Russian government, to be able to discuss our policies, because I was there to advance our agenda for peace and climate action and diplomacy and nuclear weapon abolition.”

Stein says this request was not granted. Stein also maintains that she declined to let RT pay for any portion of her trip to Moscow and further denies requesting or receiving any other assistance, monetary or otherwise, from RT, the Russian government, WikiLeaks, or the Trump campaign, adding that any dialogue or cooperation with Trump “would have been quite contrary to our values.”

When asked why she had attended the gala and sought an audience with Putin, she told The Intercept that “we sought contact with every powerful world leader we had access to,” and that the Russian government was of particular interest because of its involvement in the Syrian civil war.


Stein explained to the Real News why she has been targeted. A first, good reason is to distract the American public from the serious decisions that will really affect the lives of the US citizens. As Stein pointed out, the last several weeks the Democrats have been focused on 'Russiagate' rather on this outrageous tax-plan, or the attack on the FCC.

Stein also said:

We are presumed guilty, largely because of the Democratic Party opposition research, which was essentially what the Trump dossier was all about. This was Democratic DNC sponsored secretly, and sort of using laundered money to avoid reporting in campaign finance laws, but this was essentially Democratic Party opposition research, which declared without a shred of evidence that our campaign was being sponsored by the Kremlin. An outrageous statement presented without one bit of fact or documentation that was then used to begin smearing us and established this presumption of guilty out there.

Democratic Party propaganda opposition research began to target us as a real perceived threat and likewise, to the Republicans we are a perceived threat because we are a politics that is not controlled by predatory banks and fossil fuel giants, war profiteers, pharmaceutical companies and all the rest, which have thrown the American people under the bus.

We actually have the liberty to tell the truth, and to tell it like it is, so there has been a very concerted campaign to lock us out of the discussion. Because we have not disappeared, now, that campaign to silence the political competition is taking its latest form.

Just when the DNC "barons" openly call for a coup against Bernie Sanders, Politico accidentally reveals Bloomberg's real mission: "slow Sanders' delegate march" on Super Tuesday

globinfo freexchange
The sequence of events should not be considered random. It all started with a key question on the recent Democratic-primaries debate stage in Las Vegas.
MSNBC's Chuck Todd (you know, the one who described Bernie Sanders supporters as a "digital brownshirt brigade"), asked the candidates if the person with the most delegates at the end of the primary season should be the nominee even if they don't have a majority of the delegates. Of all the candidates, only Sanders answered positively, without hesitation. Something which, of course, shouldn't surprise us much.
The whole matter circulated around the corporate and the independent media for a while, with the progressives attempting to capitalize Bernie's response, in order to demonstrate his deeply democratic "reflexes" against the rest of the establishment candidates.
But it seems that the question was put in place by the establishment in order to test the "reflexes" of …

Another astroturfing operation against Bernie Sanders fails miserably

... right before the battle in South Carolina
globinfo freexchange
We are about to lose count of the number and different types of smear campaigns and dirty tricks that the DNC establishment has tried against Bernie Sanders so far. 
As the DNC "barons" and their super-wealthy donors understand now that Sanders' big power lies within a continuously growing, progressive movement behind him, they are trying to deal with it through the practice of astroturfing. In short, they are trying to undermine Bernie's authentic, grassroots movement, with a virtual one.

We witnessed another operation of this type during the latest Democratic debate, right before the next primaries battle in South Carolina. The operation involved an audience of supposedly authentic, ordinary voters, who, quite strangely enough, booed Sanders and cheered the billionaire Bloomberg!

Yet, one more time, progressive independent media (along with Sanders), exposed the new trick immediately.

We can't just wait for robots and 3D printers to overthrow capitalism

by system failure

During a speech four years ago, Yanis Varoufakis ended with some interesting views about the future of the capitalist system. As he pointed out:
The world we live in, is increasingly rudderless, in a constant slow burning recession, while at the very same time, the increasing concentration in the IT sector is creating the new technologies that will do that which the Left has failed to do: overthrow Capitalism. It is really very simple. The moment machines pass the Turing test properly, and you pick up the phone and you do not know whether the person you are talking to is a human being or a machine˙ the moment we are going to have 3D printers operating as public utilities - you can send any blueprint to it and it can print from one pin to a motorcycle, or to a car - the moment that this happens, we have not just a process of Schumpeterian creative destruction, but we have a process where economies of scale and the whole logic of corporate Capitalism colla…

Bernie's most powerful secret weapon is not Latinos

globinfo freexchange
A lot of discussion circulated around the independent and the corporate media about Sanders campaign ability to approach successfully the Latino community.
Progressive reporters and journalists of The Hill's Rising show went further on the issue, claiming that the Latino vote is Bernie's secret weapon on Super Tuesday, as it has been proven to work so far in the primaries.

While, undoubtedly, the Latino vote will be crucial on the outcome of the Democratic primaries process, it is not Bernie's biggest secret weapon. Bernie has another potential secret weapon - much more powerful - that could make him sweep the primaries and even grab the number of delegates that the DNC demands. And the good news is that he is the only one who could activate it.
Right before the decisive Super Tuesday battle, two DNC agents, Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar, were ordered to withdraw their nominations in order to unify the moderate vote around the "dinosaur" J…

It's official: the oligarchs and the corporate media declare war on Sanders' progressive movement

globinfo freexchange
We can safely now say that Bloomberg's propaganda ad against Bernie Sanders' supporters marks the establishment's official declaration of war on the progressive movement. Previously, corporate media revived the "BernieBro" myth in order to open the road for the war.
As we already mentioned, the anti-movement hysteria reached unprecedented levels when MSNBC anchor Chuck Todd compared Sanders' supporters to Nazi brownshirts! Todd's preposterous comparison wasn't accidental. He was specifically targeting moderate voters of the Democratic party. The aim was to scare them and prevent further popular-vote leakage from the establishment nominees towards Bernie during the next primary battles.
Michael Bloomberg grabbed the chance and tried to amplify further the BernieBro-scare through a blatantly propagandistic sample of negative advertisement. He doesn't have any movement behind him, but he has a lot of money to spend for smear camp…

Social Media and Social Control: how Silicon Valley serves the US State Department

Facebook isn’t the only Silicon Valley firm with partisan oversight of what we see: the bipartisan billionaire class and their security state have partnered with tech firms since the dawn of the internet to control the parameters of users’ thinking.

Part 17 - Pentagon-Google cooperation
Alphabet’s Eric Schmidt, too, is connected to the U.S. security state as well as to the Democratic Party, again proving that a cross-party link is established where the material interests of the billionaire class are shared. A man who joined the Google team early-on in 2001, by 2011 Schmidt was able to step down from Google’s Chief Executive Officer to be the Executive Chairman of its Board of Directors with a $100 million equity award. He maintained that position through the 2015 restructuring of Google into the holding company Alphabet, Inc., stepping down in 2017 only to become chairman of the Pentagon’s Defense Innovation Board, an advisory committee to the Secretary of Defense.…

The Council of Europe drives another nail into the coffin of the case against Julian Assange

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange will continue his fight in court against extradition to the US on 24 February. The US case for extradition of the publisher – effectively for the ‘crime’ of exposing government wrongdoing – is littered with flaws and faces widespread opposition from the public.
Now, the Council of Europe’s commissioner for human rights has put another spanner in the works in the case against Assange. The commissioner, Dunja Mijatović, has released a statement insisting that the WikiLeaks founder should not face extradition. She’s not the only senior human rights figure doing so either.
Mijatović released the statement on 20 February, just days before the next round in Assange’s fight against extradition. It reads:
                    Julian Assange’s potential extradition has human rights implications that reach far beyond his individual case. The indictment raises important questions about the protection of those that publish classified information in the public inter…

REVEALED: Chief magistrate in Assange case received financial benefits from secretive partner organisations of UK Foreign Office

The senior judge overseeing the extradition proceedings of WikiLeaks publisher Julian Assange received financial benefits from two partner organisations of the British Foreign Office before her appointment, it can be revealed.

Part 4 - Same addresses
Declassified has discovered that the addresses given by Lord Arbuthnot and other parliamentarians for Tertulias and Tatlidil have been the same — despite no obvious connection between the two organisations other than the UK Foreign Office. All the addresses are residential with no clear reason why they would be official addresses of high-level Foreign Office-linked fora.
In 2012, Arbuthnot recorded in his parliamentary register of interests that the address of both organisations was a Grade II listed house in the village of Cowlinge, Suffolk, which has a population of just over 600 people. From 2013-16, the address changed to a house in Higham, a small village with 140 people, also in Suffolk.

It's actually the liberal elites that are now on the ropes, not Bernie Sanders

globinfo freexchange

Bernie Sanders' latest defeat in another round of the Democratic presidential primaries was received by most of the liberal corporate media almost as his political ending. Just take a quick look at the headlines. You will immediately recognize a bizarre anxiety by most of them to portray Joe Biden as the ultimate winner in the mother of all battles.
One more time, the liberal apparatus has been exposed, giving one more evidence that the liberal elites are considering Sanders as a biggest threat than even Donald Trump. One more time, the liberal establishment completely justified the perception circulated among many progressives: corporate Democrats would rather lose to Trump again than give Sanders the leadership of the party.

So, why all this anxiety?

First of all, the primaries are not over yet. Sanders may have suffered another defeat, but he won't give up easily. And the fact that he is still there, ready to crush Biden in a debate with just the two of…

Το Μητσοτακικό καθεστώς βυθίζει τη χώρα στο χάος

globinfo freexchange
Αμέσως μόλις η κυβέρνηση Μητσοτάκη ανέλαβε τα ηνία της χώρας, είχαμε προειδοποιήσει ότι, είτε με την ψήφο του, είτε με την αποχή του, ο "σοφός λαός" έδωσε το ελεύθερο στη χειρότερη δεξιά της μεταπολίτευσης να σαρώσει σαν 'οδοστρωτήρας' τα πάντα στο πέρασμά της. Μετά από τέσσερα χρόνια νεοφιλελεύθερης λαίλαπας, το τοπίο καταστροφής θα έχει κάνει τη χώρα κυριολεκτικά αγνώριστη.
Δεν μπορούσαμε όμως να φανταστούμε ότι η Μητσοτακική δεξιά θα παρήγαγε τέτοιο χάος σε τόσο μικρό διάστημα. Κι όμως, θα έπρεπε να το είχαμε προβλέψει.  
Διότι ένα τέτοιο καθεστώς, που ουσιαστικά επιβλήθηκε με τη βοήθεια της μιντιακής χούντας μέσα από μια εικονική πραγματικότητα αδιάκοπης επικοινωνιακής προπαγάνδας, ήταν θέμα χρόνου να τα βρει σκούρα όταν θα προσγειώνονταν απότομα στον πραγματικό κόσμο. 
Και το προσφυγικό ζήτημα ήταν αυτό που κυρίως επίσπευσε την αποκάλυψη της απόλυτης ένδειας του καθεστώτος και την πλήρη ανικανότητά του να χειριστεί σχεδόν οποιοδήποτε πρόβ…
