"Vice to Vertue: From Carbon Crisis to Carbon Farming"
How does a virtue become a vice? How does a basic building block of life turn into a threat to life? And how do you turn that vice back into a virtue? In this half-hour we visit with two unlikely pathfinders who are helping to revolutionize farming. Calla Rose Ostrander and John Wick of the Marin Carbon Project are taking carbon out of the atmosphere and putting it back where it belongs: in the soil. In so doing, they're also revitalizing the soil, conserving water, and building agricultural resilience. Scaling up these revolutionary regenerative methods can offset the climate destabilization, which that threatens to confound agriculture and endanger our food supply.

WEDNESDAY NIGHT, AUGUST 22
12-1 Dave Emory,"For the Record #1014-Update on Fascism in Ukraine"
As indicated by the title, this broadcast updates and fleshes out a long path of inquiry into the development of fascism in Ukraine, implemented by the OUN/B successor organizations that were empowered by the Maidan Coup of 2014.
In past commentary, we have noted the profound Ukrainian and Gehlen-derived links to the supposed "Russian" hacks leading up to, and during, the 2016 U.S. election campaign.
These high-profile "hacks" have all the earmarks of a "cyber-false flag" operation, which we compared to the "Painting of Oswald Red" in FTR #'s 925 and 926.
Now, we learn that Victoria Nuland, a key player in the EuroMaidan Coup that placed the OUN/B fascist successor organizations in power in Ukraine was informed of the supposed "Russian" hacks months before senior DNC officials were informed.
There was a period, from around May of 2015 to March of 2016, where Victoria Nuland-again, a key EuroMaiden instigator-knew about these hacks, but the DNC effectively didn't. According to the following article, there's another set of people who were informed about the hacks in late 2015: State Department officials, including Victoria Nuland, were informed about the DNC hacks in December of 2015 and tasked with developing a US response.
" . . . . That conclusion was reinforced Wednesday by another witness, Victoria Nuland, who served as assistant secretary of state for Europe during the Obama administration. She told the panel that she had been briefed as early as December 2015 about the hacking of the Democratic National Committee - long before senior DNC officials were aware of it - and that the intrusion had all the hallmarks of a Russian operation. . . . As she and other State Department officials became 'more alarmed' about what the Russians were up to in the spring of 2016, they were authorized by then Secretary of State John Kerry to develop proposals for ways to deter the Russians. . . . "
This raises the question of whether the "response" she developed may have involved engaging and mobilizing the OUN/B and Gehlen-derived elements we looked at in FTR #'s 943 and 981.
Next, we note that Ukraine's embrace of neo-Nazi vigilantism continued, with the fourth attack on a Roma camp in six weeks, covered live on Facebook. The attack was launched by members of the new formed Azov National Druzhyna militia, an offshoot of the Azov Battalion formed in January to patrol the streets. Ukrainian police just stood around approvingly watching it happen.
We have noted that the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion runs a youth camp. Ukraine's Youth and Sports Ministry published a video last week showing its officials unanimously voting to fund variously organizations for "national-patriotic education projects". Among the recipients of those funds: Svoboda and C14.
Specifically, the money went to three far right organizations founded by members of C14 and Svoboda. The Educational Assembly, founded by C14 head Yevhen Karas; C14 Sich, founded by Volodymyr Karas, who shares the same patronymic, surname, and address as the C14 head; and Holosiyiv Hideout, whose founders include several members of Svoboda.
The Svoboda group will by about $29,200 for four festival. That alone is profoundly disturbing. But even more disturbing is what The two C14 groups got funds for: The C14 'Educational Assembly' and C14 Sich's children's summer camp will received about $16,900 for three children's events.
There has been yet another attack on a Roma camp in Ukraine, this time on the outskirts Lviv. A 24 year old was stabbed to death and four others were injured, including a 10 year old boy. Seven suspects ages 16 and 17 have been arrested and a 20 year old is accused of planning the attack.
Might these youth be affiliated with, or motivated by, any of the fascist youth groups funded by the Ukrainian government?
In any event, it's clear that it's 'open season' on Roma in Ukraine.
Next, we look at the faked assassination of Arkady Babchenko. The alleged hitman supposedly hired by the Russians was a member of Pravy Sektor and a veteran of the combat in the civil war in Ukraine's East. Another player in the alleged "Russian" plot was an executive with a German-Ukrainian arms manufacturer that manufactured sights for sniper rifles.
Another question in the Babchenko affair concerns the alleged planned purchase of 300 AK-47s and large quantities of explosives. These munitions were supposedly part of a "Russian" terror campaign, linked to the alleged "Russian" plot against the life of Babchenko and the other journalists.
Recall that, back In March, it was learned that far right Ukrainian war hero, Nadia Savchenko, was alleged by Ukrainian authorities a plotting a devastating terror plot on Ukraine's parliament? That was 2-3 months, right around the time the SBU allegedly got its intelligence about about this new alleged Moscow-directed assassination/terror plot. Is this the Savchenko terror plot misrepresented under the guise of a Russian terror plot?
One of the signature features of the Babchenko affair is the list of 47 names of journalists allegedly targeted by Russia was unofficially leaked yesterday. A number of Ukrainian journalists, including those on the list, question its credibility. They note the list is filled with the names of people critical of the Ukrainian authorities.
Anatoliy Matios, Ukraine's chief military prosecutor, gave an extensive interview where he said that Jews are behind all wars and want to "drown ethnic Slavs in blood." He would theoretically be in charge of prosecutor abuses by the Ukrainian military units fighting in the East - like the neo-Nazi 'volunteer battalions.'
In addition, recall the cryptic statement Matios made back in 2016 about the identity of the people involved with the 2014 sniper attacks: "When public learns who is involved in this, people will be very surprised." In FTR #'s 982, 993 and 1004, we examined evidence that Ukrainian fascists may well have executed those sniper attacks. It is not reassuring to learn that the chief military prosecutor who is involved in that investigation is a neo-Nazi.
Before approaching the statements of Mayor Moskal (of the Ukrainian village of Skole), we note that a diplomat working in Ukraine's Hamburg (Germany) consulate expressed openly fascist statements.
We conclude with a look at some of the fruit borne on the vine of Ukrainian revisionist history.
The mayor of Skole cited the work of Volodomyr Viatrovych (English translations from the Ukrainian vary) and his "Ukrainian Institute of National Memory" as documentary justification for an anti-Semitic tirade.

2-3 Chris Hedges "Moral Imperatives"
Helena, MT, March 11, 2015
What are individuals to do when faced with a moral imperative? And society at large? Philosophers since ancient times have been wrestling with this question as it involves issues of ethics and conscience. When we see an injustice do we remain passive and silent or do we intervene to try and stop it. Is it our problem or someone else's? Powerful states and institutions like to cloak themselves in morality and virtue. Citizens are propagandized to let the big boys, since they know what's best, handle everything. Do we act on our principles? What are our responsibilities? Racial segregation was an obvious immorality. Why did it take so long for it to be eliminated? Same with voting rights. Today the old poisonous wines are being repackaged in new bottles. Once again we are faced with moral imperatives.
Chris Hedges is an award-winning journalist who has covered wars in the Balkans, the Middle East and Central America. He writes a weekly column for Truthdig.com and is a senior fellow at The Nation Institute. He is the author of many books including /Empire of Illusion,' 'Death of the Liberal Class,' 'The World As It Is,' and 'Wages of Rebellion.'

(POSSIBLE FUND DRIVE SCHEDULE)
12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1013 - Fascism and the Politics of Immigration"
In The Hitler Legacy, Peter Levenda noted anti-immigrant sentiment and xenophobia as part of “The Hitler Legacy.”
“. . . Xenophobia is at an all-time high in Europe and increasingly in America. The Internet has provided new and improved means of communication. As the political life of every country becomes more and more polarized between “right” and “left,” the men
of ODESSA can only laugh at our discomfort. . . .”
Fear of “the other” has been a staple of fascist thought and is dominating much of the political discourse on both sides of the Atlantic.
In FTR #838, Levenda discoursed on how immigration from Europe, both Catholic and Jewish, melded with other events in the post-World War I period to mobilize fascist sentiment and activism.
Reacting to the advent of the Soviet Union, abortive Marxist revolutions in Germany and elsewhere in Europe, large scale immigration of Catholics from Ireland and Italy and Jews from Eastern Europe, powerful elements of the U.S. power elite embraced fascism
and eugenics ideology.
With the onset of the Great Depression, the potential threat of Communism was magnified in the eyes of many powerful American industrialists, financiers and corporate lawyers. Germany’s success in putting down the Marxist revolutions within its own borders,
as well as the business relationships between corporate Germany and its cartel partners in the U.S. business community inclined many influential American reactionaries to support fascism.
By the same token, these same elements came to despise Franklin Delano Roosevelt and his “Jew Deal,” as it was called by his enemies. American Jews were seen as hiring Jewish immigrants and thus denying “real Americans” jobs and economic well-being.
Attacking Roosevelt as a Jew and a Communist, American fascists embraced a cognitive and rhetorical position not unlike the view of Barack Obama as a “Kenyan Muslim,” and, consequently, a “traitor.”
Some key points in Peter’s analysis are explored a section of the book titled the “Origins of 21st Century Conflict.” ...
In The Hitler Legacy, Peter noted anti-immigrant sentiment and xenophobia as part of “The Hitler Legacy.”
Next, we turn to a more recent development.
Melania Trump garnered considerable media attention when she visited a detention center for immigrants, including children, wearing a jacket that said “I Really Don’t Care. Do U?”
Tasteless on its surface, the statement assumes added significance when we factor in the fact that “I don’t care” (“Me Ne Frego” in Italian) was an important fascist slogan.
Furthermore, the Zara company that made Melania’s jacket has a history of marketing garments with fascist/racist overtones. It marketed a shirt that mimicked a concentration camp inmate’s garb and a swastika-inlaid handbag. It also marketed a Pepe The Frog
skirt.
Recent comments by Trump disparaging Haiti as a “shithole” country and pining for immigration from Norway instead warrant a fresh look at the Crusade For Freedom.
During Trump’s brief tenure as President, the media have consistently lamented his actions as idiosyncrasies. Trump’s policies are not his alone, but follow in a linear path, along which the GOP has traveled for decades.
In this post, we review the Crusade For Freedom–the covert operation that brought Third Reich alumni into the country and also supported their guerrilla warfare in Eastern Europe, conducted up until the early 1950’s. Conceived by Allen Dulles, overseen by
Richard Nixon, publicly represented by Ronald Reagan and realized in considerable measure by William Casey, the CFF ultimately evolved into a Nazi wing of the GOP.
“. . . . Vice President Nixon’s secret political war of Nazis against Jews in American politics was never investigated at the time. The foreign language-speaking Croatians and other Fascist émigré groups had a ready-made network for contacting and mobilizing
the Eastern European ethnic bloc. There is a very high correlation between CIA domestic subsidies to Fascist ‘freedom fighters’ during the 1950’s and the leadership of the Republican Party’s ethnic campaign groups. The motive for the under-the-table financing
was clear: Nixon used Nazis to offset the Jewish vote for the Democrats. . . .
. . . . In 1952, Nixon had formed an Ethnic Division within the Republican National Committee. Displaced fascists, hoping to be returned to power by an Eisenhower-Nixon ‘liberation’ policy signed on with the committee. In 1953, when Republicans were in office,
the immigration laws were changed to admit Nazis, even members of the SS. They flooded into the country. Nixon himself oversaw the new immigration program. . . .”

1-2 The Ralph Nader Radio Hour
Initially heard on KPFK Mondays 2 pm
http://www.ralphnaderradiohour.com
2-3 From the Vault: #581: "Fiftieth Anniversary of 1968
This week on From the Vault, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of 1968, a year in which a radical wave crashed across the globe, changing the world and its people politically, socially, and culturally. Wars, marches, elections, assassinations,
human rights, civil rights, women’s rights, the explosion of consciousness and creativity – no event took place in isolation; the Vietnam War ducked and wove through 1968, depositing destruction and igniting defiance against injustice; students worldwide took
to the streets to not only speak out against social ills in their own land – but also in support of their international brethren; civil rights campaigners spoke in unity about the need for equal rights and respect; and a new battle – the war of words – is
penned amidst the tide of change brought to artists struggling to comprehend and express the social and political upheaval surrounding them. And Pacifica Radio was there to capture it all. We’ll hear voices from 1968 that include H. Rap Brown, Martin Luther
King, Jr., Muhammad Ali, and Ray Bradbury, among others.
From the Vault is presented as part of the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project, funded in part by an award from the GRAMMY Foundation and the National Historical Publications and Records Commission at the National
Archives and Records Administration, and past grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Ford Foundation, and the American Archive funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, along with the generous support of Pacifica Radio Listeners. We
also thank our partners and collaborators at the Pop-Up Archive, Amara, Other Minds Archives, George Blood Audio, and the California Audio Visual Preservation Project.

A fascinating look at the history of the present of the mechanistic vs. the organic view of the universe and nature in our culture and science. Sheldrake is author of 'Science of Nature,' 'Presence of the Past,' and Physics of Angels' and more. The journal 'Nature,' about his first book, stated that they were against burning books but if they changed their mind, Sheldrake's publication would be the first to go.
2:30-3 The Bioneers - Revolution from the Heart of Nature
'Equal Rights Amendment: Time's Up'
Ever since women won the right to vote in 1920, women leaders and their allies have sought to pass an Equal Rights Amendment to drive total equality and justice for women into the U.S. Constitution. It did pass in 1972, but fell three states short of ratification. Today's next wave of the women's movement might finally make the ERA a reality. Why is Constitutional protection so crucial? Join leading advocates Joan Blades (MomsRising co-founder), attorney Kimberle Crenshaw and Jessica Neuwirth (ERA Coalition President) to learn the true story of what's at stake and how life would be different and better for women and men.

FUND DRIVE SCHEDULE
12-1 Dave Emory, 'For the Record 1012 - Food for Thought' Part 2
This program supplements and recapitulates both FTR #912 and AFA #39. In turn, several other, overlapping programs should be examined to flesh out one's understanding of the phenomena discussed here, including: FTR #'s 606, 682 and 686, as well as AFA #16.
Central to our analysis is a look at an excerpt from testimony before a House appropriations subcommittee that was drawing up the defense budget for the following year. (The hearings were in 1969.) The testimony discusses the possibility of using genetic engineering to produce a disease that would be "refractory" to the immune system. This is virtually the clinical definition of AIDS. It is worth noting that the project was funded, and just such a disease-AIDS-appeared in just the time frame posited. It is also worth noting that, in the 2002 edition of A Higher Form of Killing, this passage is omitted!!
. . . As long ago as 1962, forty scientists were employed at the U.S. Army biological warfare laboratories on full-time genetics research. 'Many others,' it was said, 'appreciate the implications of genetics for their own work.' The implications were made more specific that genetic engineering could solve one of the major disadvantages of biological warfare, that it is limited to diseases which occur naturally somewhere in the world. 'Within the next 5 to 10 years, it would probably be possible to make a new infective micro-organism which could differ in certain important respects from any known disease-causing organisms. Most important of these is that it might be refractory to the immunological and therapeutic processes upon which we depend to maintain our relative freedom from infectious disease.' The possibility that such a 'super germ' may have been successfully produced in a laboratory somewhere in the world in the years since that assessment was made is one which should not be too readily cast aside. . .
Purebred Northern Europeans possess a hereditary immunity to infection by HIV, a gene (CCR5Delta 32) that conferred immunity to the Black Death, long believed to have been bubonic plague. Bubonic plague was a major focal point of Third Reich biological weapons research, stemming from SS chief Heinrich Himmler's interest in that disease.
Disguised as a cancer research program, Nazi Germany's plague research was presided over by Kurt Blome, the deputy surgeon general of the Third Reich. Blome went to work for the U.S. under Project Paperclip (also known as Operation Paperclip.) We wonder if the Nazi research into bubonic plague and the emergence of an immune-destroying disease to which only pure-bred Northern Europeans-"Aryans"-were immune might have been the outgrowth of Nazi-inspired U.S. biological weapons research stemming from Paperclip?
Another development in that context is noteworthy:
When the U.S. officially "gave up" biological warfare research, Fort Detrick-the military's top bw research facility, was officially turned over to the National Cancer Institute's Viral Cancer Research Project. Featuring veterans of the U.S. biological warfare research program, the NCI's VCP was implemented by Litton Bionetics, a biotechnology subsidiary of Litton Industries, a major defense contractor. The National Cancer Institute's Viral Cancer Research Project was at the epicenter of U.S. research into AIDS. We strongly suspect that this was a recapitulation of the Third Reich's use of "cancer research."
In both FTR #912 and AFA #39, we highlighted Bayer's projected purchase of Monsanto.
We engage in a line of inquiry that is speculative in nature, evaluating the possibility that companies descended from the I.G. Farben German chemical cartel may absorb Monsanto, the firm noted for its development of genetically modified organisms.
Specifically, Bayer and BASF figured in the reported maneuvering for Monsanto. The deal has passed American anti-trust regulators, with BASF purchasing some $9 billion in former Bayer assets to permit the deal to go forward.
Against the background of the remarkable Bormann capital network's effective control of the firms that descended from I.G. Farben, we ruminate about the possibility of genetically engineered binary pathogens being included in the food supply available to much of the world's population.
Available information highlights possible Underground Reich maneuvering to gain control of firms marketing foodstuffs to middle, lower middle and working class people. This speculation, in turn, is set against the background of information strongly suggesting that AIDS was deliberately developed.
In the context of the purchase of food-producing companies, we note J.A.B Holdings and it's associated Reimann family.
They are owned by a secretive group of German billionaires, mostly related to each other. This group owns (outright or majority) a rather shocking number of major American brands, including Peets Coffee, Panera Bread, Jimmy Choo Shoes, Dougwe Eberts Coffee, and Krispy Kreme Donuts! They appear to be making a major move to dominate the U.S., and perhaps global, coffee industry.
They also own part of 3G, the massive Brazilian holding company (with one of the three heads having the last name Lemann, and the other having Hermann as a middle name). (This is a focal point of FTR #912.)
3G owns Inbev (dominant player in the world's liquor industry), Heinz, Kraft, and Burger King, who they quickly moved to Canada and merged with Tim Hortons, a massive Canadian restaurant chain, for tax breaks. They also own the largest logistics/railroad company in South America and its largest retail shopping company. So, between their interests in JAB and 3G, this one family has their tentacles into a ridiculous amount of commerce.
Like many German corporate citizens, they make their headquarters in Luxembourg.
Is this Bormann money "gulping up companies like a giant amoeba?"
Note how secretive the Reimann family and their operation is: " . . . . The lack of involvement is allegedly part of the family policy, which also includes signing a codex on one's 18th birthday pledging to stay out of the public as much as possible, thus making them one of the most private billionaire families. . . ."

12 -1 Pema Chodron, "Coming Closer to Ourselves"
'Making Everything the Path of Awakening'
How to Befriend Your Most Challenging Emotions and Experiences
In challenging times, why do so many of us turn to Pema Chödrön for guidance? Many say that it's her honest and caring way of communicating the core teachings of Buddhism-not just conceptually, but directly from her heart to ours. In these inspiring sessions, she teaches us how to give that compassion to the person we neglect most often-ourselves. With her, you will explore:
What to do when it feels impossible to be kind to ourselves
In challenging relationships and situations, how to let go of our story and see what's really happening
Cultivating inner comfort and greater kindness toward our bodies
Leaning into frustration, sadness, and fear with a spirit of trust and intimacy
Many other insights and recommendations to befriend the difficult places within us
Through gentle and clear guidance, Coming Closer to Ourselves shows us how, even in the tumult of life's uncertainties, we can begin with a glimmer of curiosity, move closer into our experiences, and discover a place of welcome and refuge within.

1-2:30 Ken Wilber, "A Brief History of Everything"
(Read by Steve Grad and Willow Pearson)
'A Brief History of Everything' is Ken Wilber's accessible and entertaining account of men and women's place in a universe of sex, soul, and spirit. Wilber examines the course of evolution as the unfolding manifestation of Spirit, from matter to life to mind, including the higher stages of development where Spirit becomes conscious of itself. In each of these domains, there are recurring patterns and by looking closely a them, we can learn much about the predicament of our world - and the direction we must take if 'global transformation' is to become a reality.
Wilber offers a series of striking and original views on many topics of current interest and controversy, including gender relations, modern liberation movements, environmental ethics, and the conflict between this worldly and other-worldly approaches to spirituality. The result is an extraordinary and exhilarating ride through the Kosmos in the company of one of the great thinkers of our time.
Ken Wilber is one of the most widely read and influential American philosophers of our time. His writings have been translated into over twenty foreign languages.
Part 1 of 6: Tenets of Spirit-in-Action. Agency and Communion. Transcendence and Dissolution. Four Drives of All Holons. Creative Emergence. Holarchy. Higher and Lower. Depth and Span.

2:30-3:30 From the Vault - Aldous Huxley
This week on From the Vault we present a true visionary thinker who wrote and spoke as much about possible futures as he did about present events and those of antiquity: Aldous Huxley. While best known as the author of the dystopian science fiction novel 'Brave New World' (1934), Huxley also explored psychedelic concepts in 'Doors of Perception' (1954) and Utopian concepts in 'Island' (1962). Pacifica Radio was on hand to record Huxley in 1959 at the campus of the University of California - Santa Barbara, as he gave a speech known as The Final Revolution, on how humanity is threatening to destroy the delicate natural balance of its existence.
From the Vault is presented through the Pacifica Radio Archives Preservation and Access Project, funded in part by an award from the National Endowment for the Arts, past grants from the Grammy Foundation, the Ford Foundation, and the American Archive funded by the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, along with the generous support of Pacifica Radio Listeners.

(Originally published July 2016 - Dave wanted to rebroadcast this material to complement the upcoming (next week) FTR #1012, though there is some overlap between the two programs.
For more than three decades, we have examined disturbing evidence that AIDS was deliberately created and disseminated among various population groups considered "undesirable." (Among the broadcasts covering this topic are: AFA #16, FTR #'s 16, 606, and 682.)
Apparently the application of genetic engineering to the discipline of biological warfare, AIDS manifests a highly suspicious epidemiological pattern. Only pure bred Northern Europeans-"Aryans"-featuring the CCR5 delta 32 gene have a hereditary immunity to infection by HIV. People of African extraction have a hereditary susceptibility to HIV infection.
Such an eventuality was directly foreshadowed in a House Appropriations Subcommittee hearing for the Pentagon budget: "Within the next 5 to 10 years, it would probably be possible to make a new infective micro-organism which could differ in certain important respects from any known disease-causing organisms. Most important of these is that it might be refractory to the immunological and therapeutic processes upon which we depend to maintain our relative freedom from infectious disease." That is VERY close to being the clinical definition of AIDS.
In this broadcast, we take a frightening look into the future and ask where such developments might lead. With Bayer and BASF poised to purchase Monsanto-a leading GMO-producing company-we fear that genetically-engineered binary pathogens might be introduced into the food supply. (Since the program was recorded, Bayer has finalized the deal, with Sullivan & Cromwell as the U.S. legal counsel for the deal.)
Much of the program underscores the inextricable link between the remarkable and deadly Bormann capital network and I.G. Farben, during and after World War II. (We note that both Bayer and BASF are some of the I.G.'s successor companies, maintaining their profound connection to the Bormann group and the Underground Reich.) In addition to the prospect of the successor companies to I.G. Farben controlling the manufacture and application of GMO's, we highlight disturbing evidence that other companies and interests that may well be part of the Bormann/Underground Reich nexus are gaining significant market shares of foodstuffs manufacturers that cater to middle, lower-middle and working-class populations.
Will genetically-engineered binary pathogens be introduced into the food supply? Will we be seeing the realization of Hitler's vision of an "Aryan world" through dietary/culinary genocide?
Program Highlights Include: BASF's partnership with Monsanto in the latter's GMO projects; forecasts that BASF may acquire parts of Monsanto and/or Bayer that must be spun-off due to anti-trust considerations; Becker GMBH (a German food company begun by an SS officer with funds purloined during the Holocaust); Becker GMBH's incorporation into ConAgra foods (almost certainly in exchange for significant stock ownership and/or a place on the board of directors); Brazilian-born, Swiss-based Jorge Paolo Lemann's purchase of H.J. Heinz, Burger King and Anheuser-Busch; the development of the CCR5, delta 32 gene for successful stem-cell therapy for AIDS sufferers.

MONDAY NIGHT, July 23
12 -1 Pema Chodron, "Coming Closer to Ourselves"
'Making Everything the Path of Awakening'
How to Befriend Your Most Challenging Emotions and Experiences
In challenging times, why do so many of us turn to Pema Chödrön for guidance? Many say that it's her honest and caring way of communicating the core teachings of Buddhism-not just conceptually, but directly from her heart to ours. In these inspiring sessions, she teaches us how to give that compassion to the person we neglect most often-ourselves. With her, you will explore:
What to do when it feels impossible to be kind to ourselves
In challenging relationships and situations, how to let go of our story and see what's really happening
Cultivating inner comfort and greater kindness toward our bodies
Leaning into frustration, sadness, and fear with a spirit of trust and intimacy
Many other insights and recommendations to befriend the difficult places within us
Through gentle and clear guidance, Coming Closer to Ourselves shows us how, even in the tumult of life's uncertainties, we can begin with a glimmer of curiosity, move closer into our experiences, and discover a place of welcome and refuge within.
Part 2 of 5: 'The Foundation Teachings'
The original teachings of the Buddha. Open space. The three marks of existence. Everything is new in each moment. No cure for up and down. The five skandhas. Just be curious.

2:30-3:30 "From The Vault" - "Immigration and Labor - 1982 and 2017"
We begin by looking back at how Immigrants and Undocumented laborers were perceived in 1982 during the Ronald Reagan Presidency. KPFA producer Richard Gonzalez gathered a diverse panel of experts to discuss the many topics of the immigrant work force.
The panel included moderator Armando Valdez, then the Director of The Center for Chicano Research at Stanford University, Joaquin Avila President and lead council Mexican American Legal Defense Fund, Betita Elizabeth Martinez known affectionately to her fans as Betita Martinez to the fans of her book, 400 Years Of Chicano History in Pictures. Ignacio de la Fuente, of the International Molders and Allied Workers Union Local 164.
Together, they survey the history, bust the myths and make sense of the outrage when the subject turns to undocumented workers.
Next we turn to a conversation I had with Marisa Montes and Alejandro Barajas of the Loyola Law Schools Immigrant Justice Clinic. Marisa Montes is the Co Director of the clinic and Alejandro Barajas is one of their staff attorneys. Lets get into this conversation to some current challenges to our immigrant communities.

12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record 1011 - Miscellaneous Articles & Updates"
This broadcast updates and highlights previous topics of discussion, focusing largely on online/Alt-Right/Nazi fascism and some of the malevolent communities that coalesce around various ideological manifestations of that phenomenon.
Program Highlights Include:
1.-Journalist Ronan Farrow's authorship of the New Yorker article that took down Harvey Weinstein. (For more discussion of the #MeToo Movement and weaponized feminism, see FTR #'s 998, 999, 1000, 1001.)
2.-Farrow's State Department work suggestive of involvement with the intelligence community. ". . . . Post-law school: Lands a job at the State Department, as a special advisor focusing on conflict in Afghanistan and Pakistan. . . ."
3.-Farrow's co-authorship of the New Yorker article that took down former New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, a major Trump nemesis, who was also criticizing and investigating other individuals and institutions associated with the Trump/GOP power elite. ". . . . Schneiderman had already been declared 'the man the banks fear most' by the liberal magazine 'The American Prospect.' . . . . In the days since November 9, Schneiderman fired off a letter warning Trump not to drop White House support of Obama's Clean Power Plan, introduced a bill in the state Legislature to give New Yorkers cost-free contraception if the Affordable Care Act is dismantled, threatened to sue after Trump froze EPA funding of clean air and water programs, and joined a lawsuit that argues that Trump's executive order on immigration is not just unconstitutional and un-American, but it brings profound harm to the residents of New York State. . . . He's on the opposite side of the Clean Power Plan fight from Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt, since named head of the EPA, and who Schneiderman labeled a 'dangerous and unqualified choice.' . . . "
4.-Schneiderman was also investigating the powerful, well-connected NXIVM cult, one of whose associates was Roger Stone, the long-time Trump/GOP dirty trickster who signaled the #MeToo takedown of Senator Al Franken.

12 -1 Pema Chodron, "Coming Closer to Ourselves"
'Making Everything the Path of Awakening'
How to Befriend Your Most Challenging Emotions and Experiences
In challenging times, why do so many of us turn to Pema Chödrön for guidance? Many say that it's her honest and caring way of communicating the core teachings of Buddhism-not just conceptually, but directly from her heart to ours. In these inspiring sessions, she teaches us how to give that compassion to the person we neglect most often-ourselves. With her, you will explore:
What to do when it feels impossible to be kind to ourselves
In challenging relationships and situations, how to let go of our story and see what's really happening
Cultivating inner comfort and greater kindness toward our bodies
Leaning into frustration, sadness, and fear with a spirit of trust and intimacy
Many other insights and recommendations to befriend the difficult places within us
Through gentle and clear guidance, Coming Closer to Ourselves shows us how, even in the tumult of life's uncertainties, we can begin with a glimmer of curiosity, move closer into our experiences, and discover a place of welcome and refuge within.
Part 1 of 5 'The Three Vehicles'

2:30-3:30 From the Vault - Bertrand Russell
This week on From the Vault we're listening to archival recordings focusing on the politics and pacifism of Bertrand Russell. This guy's even got his own society .
Bertrand Arthur William Russell was a British philosopher, logician, and mathematician, working mostly in the 20th century. A prolific writer, Bertrand Russell was also a champion of philosophy and a commentator on a large variety of topics, ranging from very serious issues to the mundane. Continuing a family tradition in political affairs, he was a prominent liberal as well as a socialist and anti-war activist for most of his long life. Millions looked up to Russell as a prophet of the creative and rational life; at the same time, his stances on many topics were extremely controversial.
As one of the world's best-known intellectuals, Russell's voice carried great moral authority, even into his early 90s. Among his political activities, Russell was a vigorous proponent of nuclear disarmament and an outspoken critic of the American war in Vietnam.

12-1 Dave Emory, "For the Record #1010 - Summary Analysis of the Habsburg Redux, Russia-Gate Psy-Op Material'
In FTR #'s 1007, 1008 and 1009, we presented a highly complex constellation of political events and entities that are embodied in the "Russia-Gate" psy-op, and that track back to a progression of overlapping intelligence scandals tracking back decades. In this program, we attempt to give greater coherence to analysis of this consummately important phenomenon.
For purposes of clarity, we present synoptic analysis of key points of discussion and analysis in FTR #'s 1007 and related programs.
1.-The Alfa conglomerate maintains the Alfa Fellowship program, a subsidiary of the Carl Duisberg Society's new umbrella the Cultural Vistas organization.
2.-The Carl Duisberg Society was the vehicle that shepherded 9/11 hijacker Mohamed Atta around Germany and the U.S.
3.-Alfa subsidiary Crown Alfa had dealings with commodities Marc Rich, whose pardon was investigated by James Comey. The negotiations between Rich and Crown Alfa were ultimately unsuccessful.
4.-In FTR #930, we noted that another Alfa associate Mikhail Fridman did purchaseMarc Rich assets.
5.-Also in FTR #930, we noted an Alfa Bank server communicating with the Trump organization.
6.-In 2001, Crown Alfa associate Norbert Seeger's Progressive Citizens Party of Liechtenstein gave Prince Hans-Adam II of Liechtenstein unprecedented power, making him, in effect, Europe's only absolute monarch. Hans-Adam's new powers gave him control over the courts and judicial system just as the 9/11 attacks and resulting Operation Green Quest investigations were moving in the direction of the Lichtenstein-based Al-Taqwa nexus.
7.-An Al-Taqwa subsidiary, the Asat Trust had links to the House of Liechtenstein-the ruling family of Liechtenstein.
8.-Robert Mueller helped derail the Operation Green Quest investigation while serving as head of the FBI.
9.-The House of Liechtenstein is a subsidiary of the House of Habsburg.
Again, for purposes of clarity, we review links of the Habsburg family to "European integration," anti-Soviet/Cold War activism and Ukraine: ...

1-2 The Ralph Nader Radio Hour
Initially heard on KPFK Mondays 2 pm
http://www.ralphnaderradiohour.com
2-3 Yanis Varoufakis: 'How Capitalism Works - and How It Fails'
Talking to My Daughter About the Economy Yanis Varoufakis was already an internationally known economist and academic when he was elected to the Greek parliament as a member of the Syriza party. He served as Minister of Finance from January to July 2015. He resigned when Syriza broke its promise to re-negotiate Greece's debt and significantly curtail the austerity measures which had led to the longest recession in post-war history.
Varoufakis led negotiations with Greece's creditors during this government-debt crisis. However, he failed to reach an agreement with them. This led to the 2015 Greek bailout referendum. He criticized the troika of Greece's lenders, the IMF, the ECB, and the European Commission. They insisted on these bailout loans. Varoufakis said that this was a transfer of losses from private banks to Greece's and Europe's taxpayers - another bailout.
Yanis Varoufakis is the author of many books in international distribution. Among them his most recent: 'Talking to My Daughter About the Economy'. (2017) and 'Adults in the Room: My Battle With Europe's Deep Establishment.' (2017) and 'The Global Minotaur: America, the True Causes of the Financial Crisis and the Future of the World Economy'.
He spoke at Town Hall at the University Temple United Methodist Church in Seattle, WA, on May 15, 2018 and was recorded by Mike McCormick of Talking Stick . From TUC Radio, 1 (707) 463-2654, www.tucradio.org
3-3:30 Bioneers - Revolution from the Heart of Nature
'Patriarchy: Thousands of Years Old But Only a Few Days Deep'
What will it take to begin to heal the deep wounds between women and men? What is the role of men in this transformation? Cynthia Brix and Will Keepin from Gender Reconciliation International say that only by bringing these wounds into the light can we heal them. Patriarchy destroys men's souls, too, so a revolution in gender relations can liberate women and men.
