U.S. Presidential candidate Mitt Romney recently spoke at a private fundraiser to what has been described as a small group of wealthy contributors gathered in Boca Raton, Florida. The video, authenticated by left leaning political web site Mother Jones and made available by an unnamed source who attended the event, captures the Presidential hopeful in what he believes is a venue outside the view of the general voting public. Whether this [...] Mother Jones In early July, on the sleepy Friday after Independence Day, the USDA quietly signaled its intention to green-light a new genetically engineered soybean seed from Dow AgroSciences. The product is designed to produce soy plants that withstand 2,4-D, a highly toxic herbicide (and, famously, the less toxic component in the notorious Vietnam War-era defoliant Agent Orange).

Since the war on drugs started in 1971, America’s prison populationhas surged 700 percent to 2.4 million.
Prisoners have become part of the economy, manufacturing and assembling products for major corporations, while private prisons have emerged as multi-billion dollar operations. Now that there are more Americans under correctional supervision than were in Stalin’s gulags, it’s officially out of control.

According to Panetta, the president himself approves the decision based on recommendations from top national security officials. “[The] President of the United States obviously reviews these cases, reviews the legal justification, and in the end says, [...] Andy Kroll Like any good presidential candidate, Rick Santorum heaps praise on America’s soldiers and veterans. He’s pledged to “make veterans a high priority” if elected president, adding, “This is not a Republican issue, this is not a Democratic issue, it is an American issue.” But as a US senator, Santorum engineered a controversial land deal that robbed the military’s top veterans’ home of tens of millions of dollars and [...] John Hayward ABC News reports the latest legal development for former Democrat senator, former Democrat governor, Obama Administration economic guru, and top Obama money man Jon Corzine?: Montana farmers have filed a class action suit against former New Jersey governor Jon Corzine, charging that the failed financial firm run by Corzine stole millions from their accounts to pay off its spiraling debts, and that Corzine’s “single-minded obsession” with making MF [...] Nick Turse The drone had been in the air for close to five hours before its mission crew realized that something was wrong.

They’re getting richer. If you feel like you’re working longer and longer hours, you might be on to something.
