Amid impeachment vote, Congress passes record military budget and funds Trump’s border wall Three pieces of legislation passed Tuesday demonstrate the bipartisan support for war, austerity and attacks on democratic rights within the American political establishment.
First, the Senate voted to approve the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) by the lopsided margin of 86–8, sending the record $738 billion military bill to President Trump to sign into law. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2019/12/19/budg-d19.html?fbclid=IwAR1F7plWUbM5lBz_bde8j1sZHf2ZsHzEcgPoDwKWRFG7GO0YnD3wSvUzbfI

If we end wars, shut down wasteful and failing weapons programs, and close unnecessary foreign bases, we could come up with an extra $350 billion to spend on Medicare for All—without sacrificing security. If you’re following the presidential race, you’ve heard plenty of sniping about Medicare for All and whether we can afford it. But when it comes to endless war or endless profits for Pentagon contractors, we’re told we simply must afford it—no questions asked. https://www.commondreams.org/views/2019/11/20/its-our-choice-medicare-all-or-endless-war?utm_campaign=shareaholic&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=facebook&fbclid=IwAR2w4R9mUN3rFC59a9nfzFHdDwiVPs6kTx2pZ9mxm3ObKuUCQdnAEVsSTD8

Boris Johnson pledges 'golden era' with blueprint for Britain
It will be a ‘golden era' for GM crops too | Boris Johnson vows to ditch EU rules on GM crops In his first day in office, new prime minister controversially returns his brother to former brief as science and universities minister, while pledging to liberate UK bioscience and develop UK satnav rival to Galileo
Let’s liberate the UK’s extraordinary bioscience sector from anti-genetic modification rules. Let’s develop the blight-resistant crops that will feed the world,” Johnson said.
Johnson also reiterated a pledge to build a rival satellite navigation system to the EU’s Galileo network and promised to change tax rules to benefit investments in capital and research. https://sciencebusiness.net/news/boris-johnson-vows-ditch-eu-rules-gm-crops?fbclid=IwAR2Zdc3Ran3JziOhQXZMTFD_bbN63hgnLAGWv4HvuIIgl-IT8uo0TcCWwPg

'I Was Wrong': Bernie Sanders Admits Barbara Lee Only Member of Congress in 2001 Who Had it Right on Afghan War “Sanders has voted in favor of 11 wars, it'd be nice to hear his apologies on the other 10 and stop acting like a damn imperialist once and for all!” During the Democratic presidential debate Thursday night, Sen. Bernie Sanders admitted his 2001 vote as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives to authorize the invasion of Afghanistan was a mistake—and credited Democratic Congresswoman Barbara Lee of California for being the only lawmaker in Congress to get that decision right at the time. https://www.commondreams.org/news/2019/12/20/i-was-wrong-bernie-sanders-admits-barbara-lee-only-member-congress-2001-who-had-it?fbclid=IwAR0fUiqx8g9mysBeNtG1Rz8r_NFBxwgu8n5dXInp82ZUwh8aDQApDSfC10s

Unmasking the Secret Landlords Buying Up US Properties
Nearly 3 million U.S. homes and 13 million apartment units are owned by LLC, LLP, LP or shell companies.
America’s cities are being bought up, bit by bit, by anonymous shell companies using piles of cash. Modest single-family homes, owned for generations by families, now are held by corporate vehicles with names that appear to be little more than jumbles of letters and punctuation — such as SC-TUSCA LLC, CNS1975 LLC — registered to law offices and post office boxes miles away. New glittering towers filled with owned but empty condos look down over our cities, as residents below struggle to find any available housing. The lack of transparency not only represents an opportunity for money laundering, but it also has more prosaic implications. First-time homebuyers are denied the opportunity to buy affordable homes with bank loans because those properties already have been scooped up by shell companies. Tenants can’t figure out to whom to complain when something goes wrong. Local officials don’t know whom to hold responsible for code violations and neighbourhood blight. https://truthout.org/articles/unmasking-the-secret-landlords-buying-up-us-properties/

Trump's Real Sin: 'Hijacking' the Establishment's (Failed) Foreign Policy
by Maj. Danny Sjursen, USA (ret.) Posted onDecember 19, 2019
How, exactly, did I get here? My political journey has somehow taken me from canvassing for Obama north of Fort Knox, KY in 2008, to voting for Bernie Sanders in the Democratic Primary outside of West Point, NY in 2016, to – gulp! – "defending" Trump against impeachment in 2019. What a long, strange, trip it has been, as they say. Truth is, I couldn’t sleep last night and have been watching CNN’s wall-to-wall impeachment coverage since 4AM. When the clock struck a reasonable hour on East Coast time, and once I couldn’t contain the frustration any longer, I called my father. https://original.antiwar.com/Danny_Sjursen/2019/12/19/the-united-states-of-impeachment/?fbclid=IwAR1xJoBEf3Zy33T68TKLYTdhZK43PQPL4CZq4Pu5AdEfKOjUrQ4-IVXwC3k

Doctors Prescribe More of a Drug If They Receive Money From Company Tied to It
Doctors who receive money from drug makers related to a specific drug prescribe that drug more heavily than doctors without such financial ties, a new ProPublica analysis found. The pattern is consistent for almost all of the most widely prescribed brand-name drugs in Medicare, including drugs that treat diabetes, asthma and more.
The financial interactions include payments for delivering promotional talks, consulting and receiving sponsored meals and travel. https://truthout.org/articles/doctors-prescribe-more-of-a-drug-if-they-receive-money-from-company-tied-to-it/

A UK tribunal has ruled that British secret agents can lawfully commit grave criminal offenses including murder, kidnap, and torture in the course of intelligence gathering. Representing the British government, Sir James Eadie QC said it would be “impossible” for agents to maintain cover if they were not allowed to do so.
The Investigatory Powers Tribunal (IPT) ruled 3-2 in favor of the government, saying that MI5’s guidelines do not breach human rights and that the agency has an “implied power” under the Security Service Act 1989 to authorise crimes. The case was brought against the Security Service by four human rights organisations – Privacy International, Reprieve, the Committee on the Administration of Justice, and the Pat Finucane Centre.

In October, California Gov. Gavin Newsom greenlit new criminal legal legislation that has drawn considerable attention. Among its provisions, Assembly Bill 32 claims to halt contracts with private prisons, end immigration detention camps, and alleviate some of the burden associated with court, parole and probation fees. While this legislation is a small victory in its own right, the flurry of reports celebrating it deeply mislead us about the nature of incarceration, policing and justice in the United States. https://truthout.org/articles/abolishing-private-prisons-is-a-start-but-it-will-not-end-mass-incarceration/

Turkey’s parliament on Saturday approved a security and military cooperation deal signed with Libya’s internationally recognized government last month, state media reported, an agreement that could pave the way for military help from Ankara. Turkey has been backing the Libyan government led by Fayez al-Serraj as it fights off a months-long offensive by Khalifa Haftar’s forces based in the east of the country. Ankara has already sent military supplies to Libya in violation of a United Nations arms embargo, according to a report by U.N. experts seen by Reuters last month. https://the-levant.com/turkey-solidifies-security-ties-official-libyan-government/

ICC to investigate Israel's war crimes in Palestinian territories
Friday, 20 December 2019 5:18 PM [ Last Update: Friday, 20 December 2019 5:24 PM ]
The International Criminal Court (ICC) says it will launch a full investigation into war crimes in the Palestinian territories, a move welcomed by the Palestinian government.
In a statement on Friday, ICC prosecutor Fatou Bensouda expressed her satisfaction with a "reasonable basis" to probe into the situation in Palestine.
"In brief, I am satisfied that war crimes have been or are being committed in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem (al-Quds), and the Gaza Strip," she added, without specifying the perpetrators of the crimes. https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2019/12/20/614168/ICC-Fatou-Bensouda-investigation-Palestinians-Israel-war-crime?fbclid=IwAR1vSfVvq6lWKoslYN04iQ5z3AhAeqMFySWM8lmp1ygviN0famzPQ3Vz0qc

Given $738 Billion, US War Budget Hits the Motherlode (Again)
The delusions of militarism live on in a nation addicted to violence and bloodshed for profit.
By Robert C. Koehler The annual defense budget, passed recently by both the House (377-48) and Senate (82-8), came in at $738 billion for 2020, up from last year a sweet $22 billion. War hits the motherlode every year. “The money just isn’t there” for virtually anything that matters — you know, healthcare for all, free college tuition, clean water, eco-sustainable energy production — but we’ve sold the national soul to the war god so long ago that the perfunctory, bipartisan passage of the National Defense Authorization Act comes and goes every year with, at most, a few marginal cries of outrage and a big shrug from the media. https://www.commondreams.org/views/2019/12/19/given-738-billion-us-war-budget-hits-motherlode-again?fbclid=IwAR3M5Zw3IaUZd9TxYYfqym5Wr2WOpw0M3kA1FNrGlF3hzO1pRTQ54FD7Avc
