TACTICAL BRIEFING #26 | Adbusters Culturejammer Headquarters.

Hey you wild cats, dreamers, redeemers, horizontals, The stage is set for a climactic showdown in Chicago.

The crisis of capitalism is deepening. Youth unemployment has reached 50% in Spain and Greece… 30% in Portugal and Italy… 22% in the UK… almost 20% in the US. Hundreds of millions of people around the world are waking up to the fact that their future does not compute… that their lives will be a never ending series of ecological, financial, political and personal crises… and that if we don’t rise up and start fighting for a different kind of future, we won’t have a future.

That struggle ignites again May 1.

#OCCUPYCHICAGO will be the focal point of this global spiritual insurrection… 50,000 of us will converge on the windy city and confront the G8 and NATO leaders with an ultimatum. We will set up impromptu encampments throughout the city and wage a full-spectrum memewar backed up by new tactics of anarchic swarming. Our militant in-your-face nonviolence will inspire thousands of towns, cities and campuses around the world to rise up in solidarity just like they did last October.

Citizens United showdown in MT

Jeff Milchen, American Independent Business Alliance & Ian Millhiser, Center for American Progress join Thom Hartmann. Montana ignored the Citizens United ruling – and now corporations have asked the Supreme Court to step in. How might this play out – and might we be on the verge of a constitutional crisis?

The Daddy Warbucks Era

“ .. Citizens United swept away those laws and precedents. Under the new ethos, the system is rigged for the rich. Money equals speech. The more money you have, the more speech you can buy. Basically, the John G. Roberts Jr. court has become the judicial arm of the one percenters. . .”

06 FEBRUARY ANNIVERSARY MESSAGE FROM LEONARD PELTIER

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 2012

Greetings to my relations, my friends, and to my many supporters the world over.It is that time again. Another year has passed, and on February 6th I will be marking 36 years since my arrest. During all this time, my family and allies have discovered just how far the government will go to wrongfully convict and imprison someone they know is innocent. They do this as a message—first to Indians, and further to anyone who might stand up to injustice—as if to say, “We will do as we please”.

From the day of my arrest until now, through you my supporters, I have been honored with many activist and humanitarian awards. I thank you for keeping awareness of me and my case alive. Your commitment has really been a special experience for me.

In addition many celebrities, political figures, and organizations have called for my release, including 55 members of Congress. This last November, the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI) passed a permanent resolution calling for my release. Well let’s hope its not that permanent. The NCAI has committed to being directly involved with my case so that the message from Washington to Indian people does not remain, “We will do as we please”.
