Oakland Mayor Explains Why Local Police Can't Stop Looting Rioters
Moments ago, Oakland mayor Libby Schaaf sent out the following
letter to local business owners, many of whom were battered during the
latest anti-Trump riots since Trump's presidential victory, which unlike
peaceful protests in other cities, "ended in harm being done to our
business community and the rest of Oakland." As a result "graffiti and
broken windows were left behind by a group of anarchists who continually
invade these otherwise peaceful protests with the intention of doing
nothing but causing destruction."

President Assad: Syria is ready to co-operate with Donald Trump
Embattled Syrian President Bashar al-Assad is “ready” to
cooperate with the US President-elect Donald Trump, one of Mr Assad’s
advisers has said. Speaking to US media group National Public Radio on
Thursday – just after Mr Trump’s seismic victory in the US general
election – Bouthaina Shaaban said any collaboration on Syria’s almost
six-year-long civil war will depend on “whether Mr Trump’s policies meet
expectations.”

Trump Said To Consider Jamie Dimon For Treasury Secretary; Dimon Not Interested
One week ago, when the prospect of a Trump presidency was
"calculated" as being anywhere between 0% and 20% by so-called experts,
we reported that Trump's campaign finance chair, Goldman Sachs partner
and Soros Fund management alum, Steven Mnuchin, was being positioned for
something much larger as Donald Trump reportedly told his aides today
that he wants Mnuchin to serve as his Treasury Secretary.

Celebrities Urge Fans To "Fight Trump", Say They Were Only Joking About Leaving The US
As reported yesterday, among the extensive list of overly
dramatic celebrities who vowed to leave the US if Trump wins the
presidential election, was Amy Schumer, who said in September that Spain
would be her destination of choice. “My act will change because I will
need to learn to speak Spanish,” Schumer said in an appearance on the
BBC’s “Newsnight.” “Because I will move to Spain or somewhere. It’s
beyond my comprehension if Trump won. It’s just too crazy.”

Police facial recognition cameras track our every movement
Soon, just about everywhere you go, police will be using facial
recognition cameras to track your every movement. Police facial
recognition cameras are being used on bridges, tunnels and CCTV cameras
to name a few. Cops use facial recognition cameras on bridges, tunnels,
airports and transit hubs "New York [City] is increasingly a target of
threats to security. In recognition of this threat, the New York
Crossings Project will integrate emerging technologies into the security
design of bridges and tunnels across the state, deploying additional
personnel and equipment. At each crossing, and at structurally sensitive
points on bridges and tunnels, advanced cameras and sensors will be
installed to read license plates and test emerging facial recognition
software and equipment. These technologies will be applied across
airports and transit hubs – including the Penn-Farley Complex – to
ultimately develop one system-wide plan."

Trump Fallout: In The Rush To Blame Facebook, Come The Calls To Suppress Ideas People Disagree With
Yesterday I wrote that people rushing to blame Facebook for the
election results were being ridiculous, and it generated a fair bit of
discussion (much of it on Twitter). And this was before NYMag's Max Read
went out and wrote an article literally titled Donald Trump Won Because
of Facebook.

Cop Smashes Handcuffed Woman’s Face In, on Video — Gets 2 Years Paid Vacation
You’ve heard the old adage, “Justice is swift,” but when it comes
to justice in cases where police are the perpetrators, often times,
it’s “justice delayed.” Oregon’s KATU 4 reported Wednesday the Seattle
Police Department has fired Officer Adley Shepherd over his involvement
in an incident which took place in 2014. He’s been on paid vacation ever
since. On June 22nd, 2014, Officer Shepherd responded to a domestic
disturbance involving Miyekko Durden-Bosley, then 23, and another man.
The decision was made by Shepherd to arrest Durden-Bosley, whom he
placed in handcuffs, and walked to his cruiser. As Shepherd was
attempting to seat Durden-Bosley into the back of his patrol car, she
resisted arrest, and kicked the officer. Shepherd exclaimed, “You kicked
me!” then, in what appeared to be a full-force right hook blow, the
officer punched the defenseless woman in the face.

Trump and Brexit are retaliation for neoliberalism and corruption
Glenn Greenwald frames what I've been trying to articulate: as
neoliberalism and its handmaiden, corruption, have swept the globe,
making the rich richer, the poor poorer, and everyone in the middle more
precarious; as elites demonized and dismissed the left-behinds who said
something was wrong; as the social instability of inequality has been
countered with increasingly invasive domestic "war on terror" policing,
millions of people are ready to revolt, and will support anyone who
promises no more business as usual. As Steven Brust writes, the fact
that Trump supporters vehemently denied that he is a racist (he is a
racist) also means that "even they think racism is a bad thing and
should be denied." The "racist" Pennsylvania voters who supported Obama
in 2008 went Trump in 2016 -- sure, they were bombarded with racist
Facebook disinformation for the intervening eight years, but
"scapegoating dynamics fester [in] a system that excludes and ignores a
large portion of the population." (Greenwald)

Who Lost: A Biased Media, Pundits, Pollsters, Political Parties, Warmongers, the Corporatocracy, Pay-to-Play Grifters, Neoliberals
Fake Progressives are perfectly fine with soaring inequality and

politically correct. Sometimes who lost is more important than who won

End of ‘liberal non-democracy’: Hungarian PM Orban hails Trump victory
Viktor Orban, Hungary’s maverick PM, says Donald Trump’s US
election victory marks an end of a two-decade period of “liberal
non-democracy” in the West. “This is the second day of a historic event,
in which Western civilization appears to successfully break free from
the confines of an ideology,” Orban told a conference organized by the
European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. “We are living in the
days where what we call liberal non-democracy – in which we lived for
the past 20 years – ends, and we can return to real democracy,” said
Orban, without explicitly referring to Trump's election win.

The Source Of Our Rage: The Ruling Elite Is Protected For The Consequences Of Its Dominance
There are many sources of rage: injustice, the destruction of
truth, powerlessness. But if we had to identify the one key source of
non-elite rage that cuts across all age, ethnicity, gender and regional
boundaries, it is this: The Ruling Elite is protected from the
destructive consequences of its predatory dominance. We see this reality
across the entire political, social and economic landscape.
