Political cartoonist Ted Rall and CIA whistleblower John Kiriakou deprogram you from mainstream media every weekday at 9 AM EST.
Today we discuss:
• Under a 1951 agreement, the US can “construct, install, maintain, and operate” military bases across Greenland, “house personnel” and “control landings, takeoffs, anchorages, moorings, movements, and operation of ships, aircraft, and waterborne craft.” Will Trump exploit it to seize the island?
• Trump says Venezuela will send 30 to 50 million barrels of oil — about two months’ worth of production — worth between $1.8 and $3 billion to the US. It is unclear if it would receive anything in return. Meanwhile, Russia has deployed a submarine and other vessels to escort an oil tanker — which is also being pursued by US forces — across the Atlantic.
• Aldrich Ames, the counterintelligence officer for the CIA who spied for the Soviet Union and later Russia, has died at age 84. The 31-year veteran is believed to have compromised more than 100 intelligence operations and sent a number of Soviet agents to their deaths or prison, as he traded information for large sums of money that funded his lavish lifestyle.
