Award-winning Investigative Journalist Robert Parry (1949-2018)

Award-winning investigative journalist and founder/editor of ConsortiumNews.com, Robert Parry has passed away. His ground-breaking work uncovering Reagan-era dirty wars in Central America and many other illegal and immoral policies conducted by successive administrations and U.S. intelligence agencies, stands as an inspiration to all in journalists working in the public interest.

Robert had been a regular guest on our Between The Lines and Counterpoint radio shows -- and many other progressive outlets across the U.S. over four decades.

His penetrating analysis of U.S. foreign policy and international conflicts will be sorely missed, and not easily replaced. His son Nat Parry writes a tribute to his father: Robert Parry’s Legacy and the Future of Consortiumnews.

"The Supreme Court had found that the 14th Amendment prohibited the jailing of individuals without a consideration of their ability to pay debt. ... It set out very clearly that the courts could not send people to jail for nonpayment of fines and fees unless the courts had first found that that nonpayment was willful."

– Myesha Braden, Criminal Justice Project director with the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, on how Trump's Department of Justice has rolled back 25 guidance letters, some of which restored civil rights protections that were being violated in Ferguson, Missouri and other municipalities.

Trump Justice Department Revokes 25 Guidance Documents Affecting Civil Rights Enforcement

Interview with Myesha Braden, Criminal Justice Project director with the Lawyers Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, conducted by Melinda Tuhus

Toward the end of the Obama administration, the Justice Department issued 25 guidance documents to prosecutors, judges and others involved in the criminal justice system to improve the administration of laws, including civil rights laws. Based on interpretations of the Constitution and legal precedent, the guidelines were put into practice in places like Ferguson, Missouri; New Orleans; Louisiana and the states of Arkansas, Tennessee and Alabama in order to redress injustices such as criminalizing people who owe civil fines.

Trump Justice Department Revokes 25 Guidance Documents Affecting Civil Rights Enforcement

Interview with Josh Hoxie, Opportunity and Taxation Program director with The Institute for Policy Studies, conducted by Scott Harris

America has for many decades witnessed a steady rise in wealth inequality, as incomes of the rich skyrocket – and that of middle class and poor families have stagnated. While the United States is one of the richest countries in the world, it is also one of the most unequal. According to a report published by the World Economic Forum, the U.S. ranks 23 out of 30 developed nations in a measure known as the “inclusive development index,” which factors in data on income, health, poverty, and sustainability.

America’s Top 25 Billionaires Have as Much Wealth as 56 Percent of U.S. Population

Interview with Noliwe Rooks, author and director of American studies at Cornell University, conducted by Scott Harris

Randi Weingarten, who leads the 1.6 million-member American Federation of Teachers union declared in August that President Trump’s Education Secretary, Betsy DeVos, "is the most ideological anti-public education person to ever be nominated or confirmed to that position." DeVos, who never attended public school or worked in one, has devoted her life to allowing parents to choose the schools their children attend, either charter or private schools using public funds – and decreasing the federal government’s role in education.

Compiled by Bob Nixon

By mid-January, President Trump may have an opportunity to impose new sanctions on Iran that would derail the historic nuclear agreement, signed by Iran, the US, European states, Russia and China. Even as key members of Trump’s national security team try to preserve the nuclear deal, Trump may opt to kill it. (" How Trump could kill the Iran nuclear deal in January," Politico, Dec. 28, 2017; "Following up tough talk, Trump administration adds sanctions on Iran," Jackson Observer, Dec. 28, 2017)
United Nations child protection workers have been deployed to the border between Haiti and the Dominican Republic looking for Haitian children who may be abandoned, trafficked or separated from their families. ("They’re abandoned and separated. This is the perilous plight of Haiti’s children," Miami Herald, Dec. 26, 2017)
Investors in private prisons were big winners in the new Republican tax cut legislation that slashed tax rates for the wealthy and big corporations. As the same time, key middle-class benefits such as deductions for state and local taxes were scaled back. ("Private prison investors set for giant windfall from Trump tax bill," The Guardian, Dec. 28, 2017)
