Still Report #1116 – Julian Assange – TPP Text is Still Top Secret
Still Report ^ | 8/14/2016 | Bill Still

Posted on 08/14/2016 10:40:22 AM PDT by GilGil

Good morning, I’m still reporting on TPP.

According an interview with Julian Assange done by Amy Goodman of Democracy Now, less than 14% of the text of the TPP has been released to the public. Twenty-five of its 29 chapters are still secret.

According to Assange:

“Once we’re in, we’re stuck forever.”

Goodman interviewed Assange at the Ecuadorian Embassy in London on Monday and published the interview yesterday over the Pacifica network on their daily news show, Democracy Now at Democracynow.org.

This is simply outrageous! I just don’t know how to describe this in non-conspiratorial terms. We stand on the verge of becoming a world of slave states required to do exactly as the multi-national corporations want us to do. Humanity’s 2500-year-long quest for freedom will be eclipsed – forever.

This is not an exaggeration. If TPP passes, we will still have democratic-looking arms of government. We will still have elections, but they will be decided by corporate money alone. We have all seen this cloud of corruption that now dominates the halls of Congress. TPP will cast that method of operation in stone in perpetuity. Only Donald Trump gives us – the U.S – any chance of breaking this evil oligarchy. This is our last chance to turn this around.

And, if Hillary Clinton wins the U.S. Presidential election, TPP will surely pass in her first 100 days in office.

I’m still reporting from Washington. Good day.

Basically, what TPP wants to do is give the balance of power to multinational corporations to do what they want without any checks and balance. This seems very dangerous! Fascism at its best.

Don’t anyone forget that the go ahead vote enabling TPP was cast by Ted Cruz (R-Alberta)

there’s a huge difference between a trade deal (whether favorable to USA, favorable to a foreign power, or both or neither)

and

a sell-out of American national sovereignty (to foreign powers, corporate conspirators, UnitedNazis, or whomever)

I believe we can, and should, pursue Mutually Advantageous trade deals....... but NOT yield our sovereignty or governance or judicial powers to foreign or corporate or other private interests

the real issue now....with this SECRET TPP included and EU and other similar situations............is not ‘the terms of trade deals’ ,... the real issue is the Treason of those that try to push us into these sell-outs of our control of those that govern us.......and the sell-out of our control over our economic and civil lives

I will not forget that the Cuba-Canadian Alien should be ousted for lying to Texas and should be prosecuted for pretending to be eligible for the presidency.

I wonder if that is correct. Hasn't the American public been told that the entire agreement was released for public review a few months back?

which means..... traitors who want to render our USA government powerless....so THEY can seize control over us all....
via the new “multilateral arrangements and institutions” contained in TPP and EU and United Nazis

it is the replacement of “representative government” (however well or poorly that may be working nowadays) with new institutions to rule over us and our lives.....
new institutions that are NOT even formally responsive or answerable to us American citizens and voters.....new institutions that these TRAITORS aspire to control....and use to control us all.....

in short, dictatorship ..and on a grand scale, too

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness...

No.

Democracy Now is a hardcore Marxist “news source”.

Remember...this is the most transparent administration ever...that’s why the TPP is secret.

Trump should say he’ll release his tax returns when the TPP text is released.

Mr. Trump is consistent in his opposition to TPP, he repeats it constantly in his speeches. He's spot on!

If only he could FURTHER articulate to the voters a coherent, detailed analysis as to the WHY and the HOW the pact is bad for our country.

I have NO idea about all the bad things detailed in the TPP text, who does ???

We have to depend on Mr. Trump and/or his surrogates to amplify on this treaty NOW.

Why, oh, why do we have to get tiny bits and pieces of this TPP information from FR...or from Julian Assage, for cryin' out loud.

One of our local hosts mentioned it is 6000 pp. 4000 ppl are not about trade but rather governmental controls and essentially forming a governance superseding our constitution. Companies can use the US and our companies but not vice versa.

Make no mistake, this is the biggest sneaky item from Jarrett and he huge commie posse. This is what they worked years to contrive and diminish the US on this planet.The sovereignty is gone if this passes.
