Jailhouse Interview: Denied Asylum, Mexican Reporter Emilio Gutiérrez Faces Death If ICE Deports Him
Published on Dec 21, 2017 by Democracy Now! [ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzuqE7-t13O4NIDYJfakrhw / https://www.youtube.com/user/democracynow , https://www.youtube.com/user/democracynow/videos ]
We look at the danger facing journalists in Mexico and how the U.S. has responded to one of them. This week, Mexican journalist Gumaro Pérez Aguinaldo was assassinated in the southern state of Veracruz, becoming at least the 12th journalist to be killed in Mexico so far this year. Reporters Without Borders says the killing puts Mexico alongside Syria as the most murderous country for journalists. In a broadcast exclusive jailhouse interview, we speak by phone with another Mexican journalist: Emilio Gutiérrez Soto, who is fighting his deportation to Mexico as he is being held in a U.S. detention center in El Paso, Texas. Gutiérrez first sought asylum in the United States in 2008 after receiving death threats for reporting on alleged corruption in the Mexican military. He was detained then and eventually released while his asylum appeal was pending. The Trump administration denied asylum to the award-winning reporter last week. We also speak with his lawyer, Eduardo Beckett.

ACLU Investigation Reveals Texas Troopers Are Turning Traffic Stops of Immigrants into Deportations
Published on Dec 21, 2017 by Democracy Now!
A shocking new investigation by the ACLU of Texas and The Intercept [ https://theintercept.com/2017/12/10/theyre-taking-everybody-videos-show-texas-troopers-ripping-apart-immigrant-families-during-traffic-stops/ ] reveals how state troopers are essentially acting as deportation officers. After poring through public records of traffic stops by the Texas Highway Patrol, the ACLU of Texas uncovered what amounts to a deportation machine operated by the state’s Department of Public Safety. State troopers stop drivers for minor traffic infractions, and if they are unable to produce a driver’s license, they are taken into custody and turned over to Border Patrol. Several DPS dashboard camera videos show immigrants being detained for trivial traffic violations and then carted away by Border Patrol. We speak with Debbie Nathan, investigative reporter for the ACLU of Texas.

I actually knew precious little about this, other than KrautnTea was taking on the race realists.... seemed like a sensible thing to do.
Lets be real the whole reason this subject is so touchy in the first place is because folks took some real science, and WAY overinterpreted it and ended up with eugenics.

How Trump makes extreme things look normal
Published on Dec 21, 2017 by Vox [ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLXo7UDZvByw2ixzpQCufnA / https://www.youtube.com/user/voxdotcom , https://www.youtube.com/user/voxdotcom/videos ]
The scariest part of Trump's first year as president isn't how abnormal he is, it's how normal he makes everything else look by comparison.
“Don’t normalize this” has become a kind of rallying cry during President Trump’s first year in office -- a reminder to not get too acclimated to Trump’s norm-breaking and erratic behavior.
But the real danger of the Trump presidency might have less to do with Trump’s abnormality and more to do with how “normal” he makes other Republicans look by comparison. And the concept of the “Overton Window” helps explain why our politics and media might be warped long after Trump’s presidency comes to an end.

With Christmas right around the corner, President Trump has delivered for the American people huge tax cuts and massive GDP growth. Despite the accomplishments of President Trump, the liberal media continues to push the fake news stories of collusion with Russia. Meanwhile, the double standard of the liberal press has reached new heights.

The EU just took an unprecedented move to punish Poland for undermining democracy
Accusing the Polish government of undermining democracy by weakening the independence of the judiciary, the European Commission has initiated Article 7 against Poland.
The article begins a process by which Poland's voting rights in the EU could be suspended.
Although unlikely, the process could lead in sanctions being placed against the country.
This is the first time Article 7 has been used in the EU's history.

The US reportedly wants a limited strike on North Korea to give Kim Jong Un a 'bloody nose'
The US is considering a limited strike on North Korea to give Kim Jong Un a metaphorical "bloody nose," The Telegraph reported.
The US has plenty of options for delivering a short, sharp strike against North Korea that could deny it the ability to test and perfect intercontinental ballistic missiles.
But a US attack on North Korea would be a gamble that a limited strike won't turn into all-out nuclear war.

Former high-level officials submit 'unusual' Russia brief in lawsuit against Trump and Roger Stone

Sen. Mark Warner criticizes 'irresponsible and reckless' attacks on special counsel Robert Mueller
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., said on Wednesday that he is concerned about a "growing chorus of irresponsible and reckless" voices that are calling for an end to special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation of the president's ties to Russia.
Warner, the vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said "in recent weeks those voices seem to be growing in stridency and volume."
In an interview published Tuesday, Warner told CNBC that firing Mueller could lead to a "constitutional crisis."

"The nature of that contact and what may or may not have been exchanged, I think the jury is still out."

Trump Finally Gets His Wall ... At An Irish Golf Course
He gets two of them, as environmentalists warn the barriers could damage protected wildlife areas.
The Trump Organization won approval on Thursday to build a wall it has sought for more than a year ? not along the U.S.-Mexico border, but on a golf course in the west of Ireland.
The Trump International Golf Links and Hotel Doonbeg, one of several golf courses owned by President Donald Trump’s business empire, was given the go ahead to construct two sea walls along the border of the property to protect the land from coastal erosion. The 2,000-foot and 850-foot barriers are dramatically scaled down from original plans to build a 1.7-mile structure, which was rejected by local county officials a year ago.
Environmentalists and other opponents of the walls have warned they could damage protected wildlife areas.

We look at the danger facing journalists in Mexico and how the U.S. has responded to one of them. This week, Mexican journalist Gumaro Pérez Aguinaldo was assassinated in the southern state of Veracruz, becoming at least the 12th journalist to be killed in Mexico so far this year. Reporters Without Borders says the killing puts Mexico alongside Syria as the most murderous country for journalists. In a broadcast exclusive jailhouse interview, we speak by phone with another Mexican journalist: Emilio Gutiérrez Soto, who is fighting his deportation to Mexico as he is being held in a U.S. detention center in El Paso, Texas. Gutiérrez first sought asylum in the United States in 2008 after receiving death threats for reporting on alleged corruption in the Mexican military. He was detained then and eventually released while his asylum appeal was pending. The Trump administration denied asylum to the award-winning reporter last week. We also speak with his lawyer, Eduardo Beckett.

ACLU Investigation Reveals Texas Troopers Are Turning Traffic Stops of Immigrants into Deportations
Published on Dec 21, 2017 by Democracy Now!
A shocking new investigation by the ACLU of Texas and The Intercept [ https://theintercept.com/2017/12/10/theyre-taking-everybody-videos-show-texas-troopers-ripping-apart-immigrant-families-during-traffic-stops/ ] reveals how state troopers are essentially acting as deportation officers. After poring through public records of traffic stops by the Texas Highway Patrol, the ACLU of Texas uncovered what amounts to a deportation machine operated by the state’s Department of Public Safety. State troopers stop drivers for minor traffic infractions, and if they are unable to produce a driver’s license, they are taken into custody and turned over to Border Patrol. Several DPS dashboard camera videos show immigrants being detained for trivial traffic violations and then carted away by Border Patrol. We speak with Debbie Nathan, investigative reporter for the ACLU of Texas.

I actually knew precious little about this, other than KrautnTea was taking on the race realists.... seemed like a sensible thing to do.

How Trump makes extreme things look normal
Published on Dec 21, 2017 by Vox [ https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLXo7UDZvByw2ixzpQCufnA / https://www.youtube.com/user/voxdotcom , https://www.youtube.com/user/voxdotcom/videos ]
The scariest part of Trump's first year as president isn't how abnormal he is, it's how normal he makes everything else look by comparison.
“Don’t normalize this” has become a kind of rallying cry during President Trump’s first year in office -- a reminder to not get too acclimated to Trump’s norm-breaking and erratic behavior.
But the real danger of the Trump presidency might have less to do with Trump’s abnormality and more to do with how “normal” he makes other Republicans look by comparison. And the concept of the “Overton Window” helps explain why our politics and media might be warped long after Trump’s presidency comes to an end.

With Christmas right around the corner, President Trump has delivered for the American people huge tax cuts and massive GDP growth. Despite the accomplishments of President Trump, the liberal media continues to push the fake news stories of collusion with Russia. Meanwhile, the double standard of the liberal press has reached new heights.

The EU just took an unprecedented move to punish Poland for undermining democracy
Accusing the Polish government of undermining democracy by weakening the independence of the judiciary, the European Commission has initiated Article 7 against Poland.
The article begins a process by which Poland's voting rights in the EU could be suspended.
Although unlikely, the process could lead in sanctions being placed against the country.
This is the first time Article 7 has been used in the EU's history.

The US reportedly wants a limited strike on North Korea to give Kim Jong Un a 'bloody nose'
The US is considering a limited strike on North Korea to give Kim Jong Un a metaphorical "bloody nose," The Telegraph reported.
The US has plenty of options for delivering a short, sharp strike against North Korea that could deny it the ability to test and perfect intercontinental ballistic missiles.
But a US attack on North Korea would be a gamble that a limited strike won't turn into all-out nuclear war.

Former high-level officials submit 'unusual' Russia brief in lawsuit against Trump and Roger Stone
Fourteen former national security, intelligence, and foreign policy officials recently wrote an amicus brief as part of a lawsuit brought against President Donald Trump's campaign and Roger Stone, his longtime adviser.
Among the former officials are John Brennan, a CIA director; James Clapper, a director of national intelligence; and Michael Hayden, a director of the National Security Agency.

Sen. Mark Warner criticizes 'irresponsible and reckless' attacks on special counsel Robert Mueller
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., said on Wednesday that he is concerned about a "growing chorus of irresponsible and reckless" voices that are calling for an end to special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation of the president's ties to Russia.
Warner, the vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said "in recent weeks those voices seem to be growing in stridency and volume."
In an interview published Tuesday, Warner told CNBC that firing Mueller could lead to a "constitutional crisis."

Sen. Mark Warner on the Russia probe: 'More of this picture's coming into view'
"There's pressure on me from a number of Democrats who presume the president is guilty and, you know, 'Let's just get to that,'" Warner told CNBC.
"I think [Senate Intelligence Committee members will] also agree that there was a huge amount of contact between the Russians and officials from the Trump organization and campaign."
"The nature of that contact and what may or may not have been exchanged, I think the jury is still out."

Trump Finally Gets His Wall ... At An Irish Golf Course
He gets two of them, as environmentalists warn the barriers could damage protected wildlife areas.
The Trump Organization won approval on Thursday to build a wall it has sought for more than a year ? not along the U.S.-Mexico border, but on a golf course in the west of Ireland.
The Trump International Golf Links and Hotel Doonbeg, one of several golf courses owned by President Donald Trump’s business empire, was given the go ahead to construct two sea walls along the border of the property to protect the land from coastal erosion. The 2,000-foot and 850-foot barriers are dramatically scaled down from original plans to build a 1.7-mile structure, which was rejected by local county officials a year ago.
Environmentalists and other opponents of the walls have warned they could damage protected wildlife areas.
