New York Investigates Banks' Role in Financial Crisis

Gretchen Morgenson, The New York Times: 'The New York attorney general has requested information and documents in recent weeks from three major Wall Street banks about their mortgage securities operations during the credit boom, indicating the existence of a new investigation into practices that contributed to billions in mortgage losses. Officials in Eric T. Schneiderman s, office have also requested meetings with representatives from Bank of America, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, according to people briefed on the matter who were not authorized to speak publicly. The inquiry appears to be quite broad, with the attorney general s requests for information covering many aspects of the banks' loan pooling operations. They bundled thousands of home loans into securities that were then sold to investors such as pension funds, mutual funds and insurance companies.'

Sixty More Days in Libya: Obama Does Bush Lawyers Proud

David Swanson, War Is A Crime: 'Now we know why Obama has gone to such outrageous lengths to keep Bush s lawyers out of prison, claiming powers of secrecy and immunity beyond Cheney s wildest dreams and pressuring foreign nations to clamp down on any outbreaks of law enforcement. If the Bush lawyers who 'legalized' aggressive war, lawless imprisonment, and torture were not consulted on how to keep the war in Libya going in perpetuity, they were certainly the inspiration for the latest White House brainstorming session.'

A declaration of empire

Boston Globe
by James Carroll

05/16/11

Instead of merely authorizing the president to make war against those who 'committed or aided' the 2001 attacks, the proposed National Defense Authorization Act expands the notion of America s enemy to include forces 'associated' with named antagonists like Al Qaeda and the Taliban. According to its critics (including numerous House Democrats who asked last week that such language be dropped), this seemingly innocuous expansion would, in effect, license an open-ended bleeding of the American battle away from Iraq and Afghanistan to any location in which such vaguely defined associates operate...

No end to the 'war on terror,' no end to Guantanamo

Future of Freedom Foundation Future of Freedom Foundation
by Andy Worthington

05/13/11

With the death of Osama bin Laden, there is a perfect opportunity for the Obama administration to bring to an end the decade-long 'war on terror' by withdrawing from Afghanistan and closing the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The justification for both the invasion of Afghanistan (in October 2001) and the detention of prisoners in Guantanamo (which opened in January 2002) is the Authorization for Use of Military Force, passed by Congress on September 14, 2001, just three days after the 9/11 attacks...

The Trouble Is, Our Government Does not Know How To Tell the Truth

The Libertarian Enterprise

05/16/11

It really does not matter if we have a Democratic or Republican administration. Both political parties worry so much about that next election, they are afraid to tell us the truth about anything, until they decide what version of a story will play best with the voters.

State Budget Battles are about More than Cutting Deficits

The Battle Is Squared, and Why We Need Budget Jujitsu

Robert Reich, Robert Reich s Blog: 'Technically, the federal government has now reached the limit of its capacity to borrow money. Raising the debt ceiling used to be a technical adjustment, made almost automatically. Now it s a political football. Democrats should never have agreed to linking it to an agreement on the long-term budget deficit. But now that the debt ceiling is in play, there s no end to what the radical right will demand. John Boehner is already using the classic 'they are making me' move, seemingly helpless in the face of Tea Party storm troopers who refuse to raise the ceiling unless they get their way.'

I Am Bradley Manning

Bradley Manning Support Network

The Bradley Manning Support Network has released a 90-second campaign video! Now we need you to help us share it: on facebook, in blogs, in e-mails to your friends, and more. PBS prepares to do an evening special on Wikileaks, Julian Assange, and the 'idealistic young soldier,' Bradley Manning. The Frontline investigation will air May 24th. Amnesty International has published a report in which they hail Wikileaks, and the newspapers which reported heavily on its contents, as catalysts in the 'Arab spring,' the term for the democratic revolts in the middle east.
