Act Out! [93] - Why We Can’t Blame Russia & Who We Should Blame

Act Out! [93] - Why We Can’t Blame Russia & Who We Should Blame
Wed, 12/21/2016 - by Eleanor Goldfield
This article originally appeared on Occupy.com

This week on Act Out!, in a special episode, I've got some questions: What makes a news outlet a Russian propaganda site? Did the Russians actually hack or leak or in any other way tamper with our elections? How safe and fair are our elections and could voting machines be used for something more fun – like playing PacMan? And finally, journalist Mnar Muhawesh joins us to talk real – vs. fake – news.

Donald Trump a Traitor?

Yes, Donald Trump could potentially be impeached and removed from office for being a "traitor." But President Obama was even MORE of a "traitor" because of his highly dishonest and morally depraved TPP/TTIP/TiSA efforts to hand over control (for most practical purposes) of all three levels of our government to a cartel of greedy multinational corporations led by CEO's who "have no god but money" and don't really give a damn how many people they impoverish and/or kill in order to "increase their corporation's bottom line."

Also, for over 100 years now, interfering with other country's electoral processes (to further or protect "US corporate interests") has been a MAJOR FEATURE of US foreign policy (especially Latin America and notably in Iran as well). This has included US sponsorship of coup de tat's, insurgency movements, outright military invasions, and full-scale occupations of foreign countries. Such interference by the Obama Administration alone has already created a perpetual state of anarchy in Honduras, and VERY BLOODY CIVIL WARS in Syria, Libya, and the Ukraine. So it is HIGHLY HYPOCRITICAL for us to complain about other countries interfering in our electoral process.
