"First They Came for Assange Yanis Varoufakis, April 16, 2019: “Pompeo described WikiLeaks as “a non-state hostile intelligence service.” That is exactly right. But it is an equally accurate description of what every self-respecting news outlet ought to be.”
My love for Yanis based on his support of Julian Assange. Lots of his economics is over my head but his ethics are easy to grasp. Assange has spent 3+ years held in a gulag for terrorists in solitary confinement faced with US extradition on Espionage charges for publishing leaks exposing US war crimes. How can an Aussie commit treason against a foreign government unless it assumes the CIA runs the world and we are obliged globally to refrain from any criticism of their war machine?
I'm sure Yanis and I disagree on a number of things, but we also agree on a lot, this being one of the things we agree on, and I am quite willing to find common ground with him on this. Too many people say 'oh, this guy is left wing, or this guy is right wing - I can never talk to him, he's awful!". It's ridiculous, and it's exactly what the Democrats and Republicans want, because it distracts us from career crooks like Pelosi and McConnell.
Nobody question him about David Rockefeller either. You know, the philanthropist, as Ivy Lee has been portraying this type of excuses for a human being to general public.
Sending for a rant yet again for archive purposes:
Perhaps you should offer a prize to any of our award-winning business journalists, to ask Larry Summers a question about his relationship with Epstein, and why it continued after his arrect and conviction, and a couple more.

Is that not what US journalism is all about, not asking the most obvious question, especially when its embarrassing to the interviewee?
This is how they continue to get useless interviews that generate zero of substance.

"David Rockefeller, who has just died, did as much as any private citizen to bring public and private sectors together.
Bilderberg Group, The Trilateral Commission, The Council of the Americas and much more were important legacies.
I wish we had more business leaders today like David Rockefeller who took the long and global view.
David Rockefeller was my friend. I will miss his friendship and wisdom." - Larry Summers, March 2017
Grotesque.
Mr. Rudy,
Perhaps you should offer a prize to any of our award-winning business journalists, to ask Larry Summers a question about his relationship with Epstein, and why it continued after his arrect and conviction, and a couple more.
The prize could be an interview with you.
It's surreal and very, very telling that such an obvious question has NEVER been asked.
