Hillary
Lied About TPP
By
Crista
Huff
Hillary Clinton called TPP “the gold standard.” The most focused
statement Clinton made about the TPP was as follows: "I’m going to have a
special prosecutor. We’re going to enforce the trade deals we have, and we’re
going to hold people accountable." That statement is absurd. First, trade
deals are generally enforced by taking grievances to the World Trade
Organization and/or the global courts, via the Investor-State Dispute
Settlement (ISDS) mechanism. These contentious situations often take years to
be resolved. And while the aggrieved parties await resolutions, American
industry suffers. For example, the U.S. steel industry's production fell 27% in
2015, largely due to currency manipulation and illegal dumping on the part of
Asian nations, especially China. If Clinton were going to appoint a special
prosecutor - and we're assuming here that such a person would actually have the
power to make a dent in trade problems - why didn't she influence the
appointment of such a person at any point during the last 30 years? [more...]
Beef and Cattle Imports Set Record
Under Ag Secretary Vilsack
Cattle,
beef and beef product imports have nearly doubled (from an average $3.05
billion per year to $6.04 billion per year) under the Vilsack Agriculture
Department in relation to the Clinton years. The imports have increased by 33%
in relation to the George W. Bush years ($4.5 billion per year average). [more...]
New
Employees Are Changing the Workplace
We
all knew the day would come when baby boomers and gen X-ers usher a new
generation into the workplace. The oldest members of Generation Z, a population
born in the mid-to-late-1990s through 2010, have just entered the workforce
with all new perspectives and expectations. They follow in the footsteps of
their older siblings and counterparts, the millennials, who share similar
lifestyles but also remember the days of the VHS and a world without wireless
technology. Millennials are now taking on management positions and it appears
the workplace we are accustomed to is now at the base of a mountain of change. [more...]
FBI
Warns of “Terrorist Diaspora” of Isis Migrants to West
Intelligence
and law enforcement agencies worry that a surge of violent extremists will
eventually move from ISIS-controlled areas in Syria and Iraq into Western
nations with the aim of committing terrorist attacks, FBI Director James Comey
told Congress on Tuesday. "The caliphate will be crushed," but
hundreds of people will remain and become part of a "terrorist
diaspora" in the next two to five years. "When ISIS is reduced to an
insurgency, those people will try to come to Western Europe and here,"
Comey said in testimony before the Senate Homeland Security and Government
Affairs Committee. [more...]
No
Safe Spaces for the ANTI-Safe Spacers
By
Joe
Messina
The
Left always talks a good game of equality but they have yet to prove it. Whether
it has to do with equal pay for women working for the Democrat party (the audit
of salaries in Nancy Pelosi’s office showed she pays her female staff 29% less
than their male counterparts) or fighting against racism (as was evidenced in
the many e-mails released from the DNC dealing with the “Taco Bowl Voters”) or
even religious rights (also evidenced by the DNC e-mail leak planning to use
the fact that Bernie Sanders might be an atheist against him in the south).
These facts and many more show just how the Left deals with social justice. [more...]
