THIS JUST IN! GHISLANE CONSIDERS CHARITY!

BULLY BOY PRESS CEDRIC'S BIG MIX & ANN'S MEGA DUB  -- THE KOOL AID TABLE 

GHISLANE MAXWELL IS SAID TO BE STYMIED OVER THE COURT'S DECISION NOT TO RELEASE HER ON BAIL.


"WHEN THEY TOLD ME THAT I COULDN'T MAKE MONEY OFF EXPLOITING UNDERAGE GIRLS," SHE SAYS, "I DIDN'T LISTEN AND LOOK HOW MUCH MONEY I MADE.  WHEN THEY TOLD ME THAT I COULDN'T GET AWAY WITH IT?  WELL FOR DECADES I DID JUST THAT.  BLACKMAIL AND EXTORTION NEVER FAILED ME BEFORE."


TOLD THAT SHE DIDN'T MAKE FOR A SYMPATHETIC PERSON, MAXWELL DEAD-PANNED, "SO I SHOULD WHAT?  TOSS A FEW QUARTERS INTO A JAR FOR CHILDREN'S MIRACLE NETWORK?''


  

FROM THE TCI WIRE:

Somehow this news is not being reported in the west.  A lot isn't.  You've got pretend outrage over pardons by Donald Trump that people try to pass off as Iraq coverage.  It's not.  It's a lot of junk and a lot of garbage.  Nothing will change the pardons.  And at least they served some time.  The people -- US military -- that attacked the REUTERS journalists and the family -- exposed in the WIKILEAKS video -- served no time.  The US military that attacked journalists on April 8, 2003 resulted in no prison sentences.  They fired on the Palestine Hotel in Baghdad, they fired on ALJAZEERA's Baghdad office and they fired on ABU DHABI's Baghdad office.  These are War Crimes.  Three people were killed, four more seriously injured.  


Why the Trump pardons?  Why are they cluttering up the media landscape?  


A) It's Donald Trump.  B) It's easy coverage.  No one has to learn anything to cover a story reported over a decade ago.  C) It's so damn easy.


They call out the mercenaries and they feel good about themselves.  They're too impotent to call out War Crimes.  They hide behind 'patriotism.'  So they go to town on these mercenaries and get to feel good about themselves because they 'support' veterans.  They do grasp that most mercenaries -- in any war -- are veterans, right?  Oh, they didn't think about that, did they?  Aren't they all, the pardoned, former US Marines?  Oh, let's ignore that, right?


Selective outrage.


Blackwater's actions in Iraq are appalling.  Many of us found the actions appalling in real time -- which means long before that Bahgdad drive-by.  Many of us called them out long before that.  Anyone want to explain how standard operating behavior -- which is what that drive-by was -- results in the demonization of the worker drones but not the head of the company Erik Prince?


I'm really tired of all the garbage that wants to pretend that the drive-by was some shocking event when, sadly, it was your average day in Iraq thanks to the US government.  


Not hearing anything about the US arming and egging on death squads but then that might require a backbone and a sense of ethics and those still whining over the Trump pardons lack both.  From March 6, 2013, Mona Mahmood, Maggie O'Kane, Chavala Madlena, Teresa Smith, Ben Ferguson, Patrick Farrelly, Guy Grandjean, Josh Strauss, Roisin Glynn, Irene BaquĆ©, Marcus Morgan, Jake Zervudachi and Joshua Boswell (GUARDIAN) reported:


Retired Colonel Jim Steele, whose military decorations include the Silver Star, the Defence Distinguished Service Medal, four Legions of Merit, three Bronze Stars and the Purple Heart, is not at home. Nor is he at his office headquarters in Geneva, where he is listed as the chief executive officer of Buchanan Renewables, an energy company. Similar efforts to track him down at his company's office in Monrovia are futile. Messages are left. He doesn't call back.

For over a year the Guardian has been trying to contact Steele, 68, to ask him about his role during the Iraq war as US defence secretary Donald Rumsfeld's personal envoy to Iraq's Special Police Commandos: a fearsome paramilitary force that ran a secret network of detention centres across the country – where those suspected of rebelling against the US-led invasion were tortured for information.

On the 10th anniversary of the Iraq invasion the allegations of American links to the units that eventually accelerated Iraq's descent into civil war cast the US occupation in a new and even more controversial light. The investigation was sparked over a year ago by millions of classified US military documents dumped onto the internet and their mysterious references to US soldiers ordered to ignore torture. Private Bradley Manning, 25, is facing a 20-year sentence, accused of leaking military secrets.

Steele's contribution was pivotal. He was the covert US figure behind the intelligence gathering of the new commando units. The aim: to halt a nascent Sunni insurgency in its tracks by extracting information from detainees.

It was a role made for Steele. The veteran had made his name in El Salvador almost 20 years earlier as head of a US group of special forces advisers who were training and funding the Salvadoran military to fight the FNLM guerrilla insurgency. These government units developed a fearsome international reputation for their death squad activities. Steele's own biography describes his work there as the "training of the best counterinsurgency force" in El Salvador

Of his El Salvador experience in 1986, Steele told Dr Max Manwaring, the author of El Salvador at War: An Oral History: "When I arrived here there was a tendency to focus on technical indicators … but in an insurgency the focus has to be on human aspects. That means getting people to talk to you."

But the arming of one side of the conflict by the US hastened the country's descent into a civil war in which 75,000 people died and 1 million out of a population of 6 million became refugees.

Celerino Castillo, a Senior Drug Enforcement Administration special agent who worked alongside Steele in El Salvador, says: "I first heard about Colonel James Steele going to Iraq and I said they're going to implement what is known as the Salvadoran Option in Iraq and that's exactly what happened. And I was devastated because I knew the atrocities that were going to occur in Iraq which we knew had occurred in El Salvador."

It was in El Salvador that Steele first came in to close contact with the man who would eventually command US operations in Iraq: David Petraeus. Then a young major, Petraeus visited El Salvador in 1986 and reportedly even stayed with Steele at his house.


I'm sorry, COMMON DREAMS, COURAGE TO RESIST and all the rest of you cowards, when are you going to call for Jim Steele to be held accountable?  Oh, that's right, never.





But you know what you accomplish as you cower in fear, you pathetic idiots?  Not a damn thing except to help Jim Steele.  He's terrorized multiple countries and he hasn't gone into hiding.  No, he hasn't gone into hiding.  What he's done instead, thanks to the useless like yourselves, is to set up his own security company -- in the US, no less.  It's called Steele -- that's the company name and it boasts of it's "real world training" with active shooters.  Yeah, he's terrorizing now in the US just like he did overseas but, hey, Gerry Condon, keep pretending your life hasn't been a complete waste.

THIS JUST IN! PELOSI FEEDS SOMEONE!

BULLY BOY PRESS CEDRIC'S BIG MIX   -- THE KOOL AID TABLE 


SPEAKER OF THE RICH HOUSE NANCY PELOSI IS TELLING AMERICANS THAT $600 A PERSON IS THE MOST THE GOVERNMENT CAN DO FOR THE COUNTRY IN THE MIDST OF A GLOBAL PANDEMIC AND MASSIVE UNEMPLOYMENT.


WHEN THESE REPORTERS POINTED OUT THAT OTHER COUNTRIES HAVE DONE SO MUCH MORE FOR THEIR CITIZENS, SPEAKER PELOSI BARKED, "WE FEED THEM!"


WHEN THESE REPORTERS POINTED OUT THAT THE DEAL SHE REFUSED BEFORE THE ELECTION OFFERED $1200 PER PERSON, SPEAKER PELOSI HOLLERED, "WE FEED THEM!"


"LOOK," AN EXASPERATED PELOSI FINALLY SAID, "CRUMBS ARE FOOD.  THEY'RE FOOD CRUMBS.  I GOT FOOD CRUMBS FOR AMERICA.  YOU SHOULD ALL BE KISSING MY ASS! BESIDES 42.4% OF AMERICANS ARE OBESE -- PUT THE BASTARDS ALL ON A DIET ALREADY!  I HATE AMERICANS, I HATE AMERICA!  I AM NANCY DAMN PELOSI!"


FROM THE TCI WIRE:


Rukmini Maria Callimachi -- THE NEW YORK TIMES made her a star 'journalist.'  Not because of serious reporting but because of attention getting stunts.  Long before she broke every ethical rule in the book by smuggling evidence and records of terrorism out of Iraq, her journalism was already problematic.  The Sunnis were the first to complain on social media about her coverage which was reductive and racist.  Then we learned that she was lunching with the militants (militia members) she was covering and this after two journalists contacted us to state that she was not reporting the abuses the militia was carrying out -- even when she witnessed them.


Her fellow reporters at THE TIMES also had problems with the 'star.'  Eric Wemple (WASHINGTON POST) reports:

 

Several Times journalists who had long ago alerted their superiors to problems with Callimachi’s reporting felt that the Times’s mea culpa contained a gap: Where was the pointed acknowledgment that “Caliphate” was a wreck several years in the making? Sure, the editor’s note cited editorial breakdowns in the vetting of the podcast series. But why not admit that editors shunted aside complaints about Callimachi long before assistant managing editor Sam Dolnick approached Callimachi about making a podcast on the Islamic State?

Those journalists had reason to believe such an admission was afoot. On Thursday, top editors at the Times presided over a meeting with staffers who had worked with Callimachi over the years. Multiple sources who attended the meeting described it as a painful affair in which masthead officials acknowledged lapses in management and their subordinates blasted them for not acting on their flares.

Particularly outspoken was C.J. Chivers, a former foreign correspondent and now a staff writer for the New York Times Magazine. Chivers was among the first Times reporters to channel his worries to editors at the paper. For his presentation at the Thursday meeting, Chivers spoke from prepared remarks. He said: “Warnings were not just dead letters. They became a basis to impugn people personally and professionally.”

 [. . .]

Staffers had a great deal to say. One objected that Callimachi’s work had embraced stereotypes of Muslims and that if the newspaper had treated African Americans in the same way, the Times would have much bigger problems. A staffer from the Washington bureau noted that a masthead official had warned journalists in the capital to independently verify Callimachi’s contributions to collaborative stories. Another gripe: Washington reporters were commonly hauled in at the 11th hour to buttress reporting in Callimachi’s stories. Such a scenario occurred in Chapter 6 of “Caliphate,” when three D.C. reporters were drafted to press U.S. officials on the alleged activities of Abu Huzayfah.


THE POST's Liz Sly summarizes Erik Wemple's article in the Tweet below:


New York Times staffers raised red flags about

a little attention


 Isaiah's THE WORLD TODAY JUST NUTS "Hunter Biden Finally Gets A Little Press Attention


FROM THE TCI WIRE:


Over the weekend, Adam Goldman, Katie Benner and Ben Protess (NEW YORK TIMES) reported:


But the disclosure of a criminal inquiry into his son thrust Mr. Biden into a charged position as he prepares to take office. Republican senators called for an independent special counsel to investigate Hunter Biden, and Mr. Trump complained that the Delaware inquiry did not surface before the election.

“I’m proud of my son,” Mr. Biden told reporters on Friday.


Why not?  He bedded his brother's widow.  He had to be hauled into court to pay child support for a child he denied -- denied even after the test concluded he was the father.  He spent millions on drugs and hookers according to his first wife -- that would be the mother of his children (plural) whom he left to bed his brother's widow.  "Hey, kids, say hi to Aunt-Mommy!"  And we didn't even get into his drug addiction.  An African-American with the same drug problems would be in prison -- as a result of the laws Joe championed as a US senator.  But Hunter gets a pass over and over.  He needs something to make his sad resume look impressive?  Daddy Joe -- then the Vice President -- cuts all red tape and gets him instantly in the reserves.  But f**k up Hunter can't even last a month before he fails a drug test and is kicked out.  


"I'm proud of my son."  If that's true, Joe, that might be part of the problem.  


Brian Stelter has long been part of the problem.  When will CNN hire a woman as ugly as Brian?  Never.  It's a visual medium so why did they hire Brian to begin with?  He spent his Sunday show spouting more nonsense.  He thinks attacking FOX NEWS makes him a critic.  No, Brian, a real critic can turn the eye on their own network and, in the case of Hunter Biden, absolutely should.  Mark Hemingway (REAL CLEAR POLITICS) notes:


Hunter Biden announced Wednesday he is under federal investigation for his financial dealings in foreign countries, including China. While the news sent shockwaves through Washington, D.C., it shouldn’t have been surprising. The announcement confirms many of the allegations of corruption that were leveled against Hunter Biden in the months leading up to the November elections – allegations the media steadfastly refused to cover.

The nation’s largest social media companies went further: They made the shocking decision to actively censor the New York Post’s eye-opening scoop revealing evidence of Joe Biden’s son’s influence peddling that was recovered from an abandoned laptop. Twitter locked the newspaper out of its own account for weeks. Facebook prevented the Post’s story from being widely distributed, even though neither Joe Biden nor his campaign disputed the authenticity of the documents published by the paper.

In retrospect, not only do the documents appear to be authentic, but a Daily Beast report Thursday notes evidence that the Hunter Biden investigation was hiding in plain sight. One of the FBI documents from the laptop published by the Post “included a case number that had the code associated with an ongoing federal money laundering investigation in Delaware, according to several law enforcement officials who reviewed the document. Another document — one with a grand jury subpoena number — appeared to show the initials of two assistant U.S. attorneys linked to the Wilmington, Delaware, office.” Hunter Biden claims he only learned of the  investigation this past week, but these documents suggest otherwise.

Even a cursory inquiry by the New York Post’s competitors would have confirmed that Biden was under federal investigation. One journalist did behave like a reporter. In late October, Sinclair Broadcast Group correspondent James Rosen reported that Hunter Biden was under active investigation and a Justice Department official confirmed his scoop. Almost without exception, America’s press corps refused to follow up on Rosen’s revelation — or even report it.


The corporate media has a great deal to answer for.  Trash like Erica Jong's daughter work overtime to enure that no answers ever come.  Ross Barkan (JACOBIN) writes:

In 2017, MSNBC, unable to marshal much of an audience during Obama’s presidency, became a place where every Trumpian outrage and conspiracy could be parroted and expanded to maximalist proportions. Ratings soared. Rachel Maddow became one of the biggest stars in television, rivaling the reach of any Fox host. CNN, too, made a fortune on liberal angst and rage, branding for the Resistance.

For mainstream liberal outlets — both those that openly identify that way, and those that keep up the pretense of neutrality — the future is less clear. For four years, the top media organizations in America universally benefited from Trump. The New York Times and the Washington Post, which received a remarkable surge of subscriptions from beleaguered readers, almost all Democrats who turned to them for news of Trump’s potential downfall, also rebranded for the Resistance. From Russiagate to impeachment to Trump’s unhinged tweets, content was never lacking — the show always went on. The Post even devised a new grandiose motto, “Democracy Dies in Darkness.” Smaller liberal outlets like the New Yorker, New York magazine, Vox, and the Daily Beast trod a similar path.

Many media organizations played a role as an aggressive and necessary watchdog in the Trump years. The bankrupt access-journalism model, in which reporters allow themselves to be co-opted by powerful actors for mostly meaningless scoops, lost favor in the Trump years, as more journalists and readers recognized that it could not function with a White House that offered so little in the way of reliable information. Trump did revive gossip-infused palace intrigue reporting, with so many staffers cycling in and out, but that did not cause mainstream outlets to abandon their adversarial stance, at least toward Trump himself. The Mark Halperin model of reporting was rightfully discredited.

But a new problem arises now: Can these many media organizations, so closely linked to the project of anti-Trump resistance, leave behind their role as Democratic Party activists and Biden apologists? As Branko Marcetic wrote in Jacobin in October, the collective decision to entirely suppress the New York Post’s dubious, though hardly fabricated, reporting on Hunter Biden’s business dealings in Ukraine and cheer on the censorship efforts of Facebook and Twitter — the latter social media giant, in an unprecedented move, locked the Post’s main account and temporarily blocked sharing of the story — could be a harbinger of what’s to come. The Post’s story should not have been promoted uncritically, but most media outlets failed in their first duty to the public: to report and find out what’s true and what’s false. Instead of attempting to verify the facts of the story and then deciding whether to dismiss all of it as bunk, media organizations blacked out the story without making even a perfunctory attempt to explain what it was that had been revealed in the first place and if any of it could be relevant to the public.

Still traumatized by 2016, when Democratic Party operatives attributed Trump’s victory to Wikileaks’ release of hacked emails from the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee, media organizations were determined not to be perceived as aiding and abetting a candidate they regarded as a threat to democracy itself. Once Trump was deemed a fascist — never mind that Trump was a historically weak president who accomplished relatively little beyond judicial appointments, as Corey Robin has convincingly argued — any and all reporting that could be perceived as damaging to his rivals was viewed by the Democratic readership as the greatest of transgressions.

But as long as Trump was president, at least none of this hindered the practice of accountability journalism vis-Ć -vis the executive branch.

What now? There is a real danger of slipping into a new normal, in which liberal-leaning newspapers and websites fail to report as aggressively on the Biden White House as they did on its predecessors. Aaron Rupar, a prominent Vox editor, recently dismissed an investigative report into the lucrative private-sector careers of Biden’s wealthy foreign policy team. “Blinken participated in society. The horror,” Rupar tweeted, referring to Biden’s pick for secretary of state, Antony Blinken.

Apparently, to some journalists, founding a high-dollar consulting firm with clients in the defense industry, Silicon Valley, and various hedge funds while also being a partner in a private equity firm can now be equated to the mere act of “participating in society,” as if this were an unavoidable part of everyday life. Had a Trump cabinet pick boasted a similar background, it’s unlikely Rupar would have been so blasĆ©. The danger is that in the post-Trump era, Democratic corruption will be seen as acceptable because it’s not Republican corruption.
