“She’s Baldly Lying”: Dana Frank Responds to Hillary Clinton

 

As Hillary Clinton seeks to defend her role in the 2009 Honduras coup, we speak with Dana Frank, an expert on human rights and U.S. policy in Honduras. “This is breathtaking that she’d say these things. I think we’re all kind of reeling that she would both defend the coup and defend her own role in supporting its stabilization in the aftermath,” Frank says. “I want to make sure that the listeners understand how chilling it is that a leading presidential candidate in the United States would say this was not a coup. … She’s baldly lying when she says we never called it a coup.”

TRUMP: MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN?!??????

BY: LEON KWASI KUNTUO-ASARE

As a black man I’m still trying to figure out when America was so great, less “crapppy” yes, but great, I’m not so sure. 

I’m like in 1920’s there were  mass lynchings.

In1960’s the Assassination of our civil rights leaders and the sabotaging  of the civil rights movement by the FBI’s counter intelligence program ( cointelpro ). 

The 1980’s Reagan’s war on Drugs, destroyed the black community, by throwing tens of thousands of blacks in prison for the same drugs his buddy Oliver North allowed to be brought into America. 

hmm maybe the 1990’s, oh wait, Bill Clinton’s mass incarceration laws , his welfare reform,  the NAFTA and trade deal with China, that help destroy the middle class and made blacks, even poorer by sending away American jobs to foreign countries .

Crap maybe the 2000’s first black  president Barack Obama ,  oh wait more unarmed blacks were killed by suspected racists on Obama’s presidency,  than during George “Forest Gump ” Bush and yet Mr. Black president,  said almost nothing about the white supremacist attacks on blacks. 

Darn, I have to find out this time America was great for everyone no matter their race, gender, sexual orientation, religion , etc.

BY: LEON KWASI KUNTUO-ASARE

I grew up believing we here in America lived in a true democracy, but now I see that was a fallacy, told to me in school and on tv , because America in actuality is an oligarchy.

Still don’t believe me? Look no further than the super delegates in the Democratic party, that has already selected, not elected, Hillary over Bernie.

The truth is Clinton and Sanders in pledged delegates are neck and neck, but the corporate media or the elitists in the DNC won’t tell you that, because they’re looking out for the 1%, and have zero interest in watching our back.

SIGN THE PETITION BELOW IF YOU BELIEVE OUR AMERICAN DEMOCRACY SHOULD BE DECIDED BY WE THE PEOPLE AND NOT A FEW HUNDRED PARTY ELITES.

IT HAS BEEN SIGNED BY 200,000 PEOPLE, INCLUDING MYSELF, VOTE FOR WHOMEVER YOU WANT, HILLARY OR BERNIE, THAT IS NOT THE ISSUE, DEMOCRACY IS.

This will be delivered to the Democratic  party and their super delegates.
