Congress

Submitted by Jeffrey Snider via Alhambra Investment Partners,

Barack Obama is illegally rushing through a final set of executive actions in his final two months as President, despite the fact that Congress blocked his ability to pass any new laws or policies. Federal agencies are pushing through new regulations on commodities speculation, air pollution from the oil industry, doctors’ Medicare drug payments and high-skilled immigrant workers, in order to cement Obama’s legacy. This is all despite the fact that Trump will probably reverse all new legislation created by the Obama administration.

On November 15, Congress passed a resolution to impose a no-fly zone over Syria, which experts are warning will result in a U.S. war with Russia.  House Resolution 5732, otherwise known as the “Caesar Syria Civilian Protection Act,” means that America can now shoot down Russian warplanes operating in the region. Thefreehthoughtproject.com reports: Soon after the presidential election, key warmongers in Congress began formulating plans to make increased conflict a near certainty, complete with the kind of propaganda peddled before the Iraq attack.
