Death and Displacement: A USAID Export
Victoria McKenzie and Steven Cohen, NACLA
Excerpt: "In April 2013, the northeastern department of La Guajira, Colombia was suffering its worst drought in three decades. The streams that flow down from the Sierra Nevada and Serrania del Perija had reduced to a trickle, and the scattered wells on the already arid Caribbean peninsula were running dry. In the previous three years, thousands of Indigenous Wayuu children had died of thirst, hunger, and disease."

Hiroko Tabuchi, The New York Times

Koch to advance conservative causes, fanned out and began strategically knocking on doors. Their targets: voters most likely to oppose a local plan to build light-rail trains, a traffic-easing tunnel and new bus routes."

NEVER MIND! CHARLIE BAKER IS TOO BUSY FLASHING THAT WHITE TOOTHED SMILE, GLAD-HANDING AND FUND-RAISING TO DO HIS JOB! DON'T BOTHER HIM WITH FACTS!
DATELINE BEACON HILL —
- "Paychecks balloon on Gov. Baker's watch," by Hillary Chabot, Boston Herald: "A Herald review of state comptroller records found dozens of employees at the little-known agencies earned more than $200,000 in 2017, pocketing thousands of dollars in bonuses, while executive directors at some agencies have raked in tens of thousands of dollars in raises since Baker took office — reversing reforms that were pushed through by his Democratic predecessor."
CHARLIE BAKER'S BENEFACTORS:
- "Eric Schultz a steady financial supporter of top officials," by Joe Battenfeld, Boston Herald: "Former Harvard Pilgrim CEO Eric Schultz, who mysteriously quit for undisclosed violations of the company's "code of conduct," has donated nearly $37,000 to Bay State pols — who have been noticeably quiet about Schultz's departure. Among Schultz's biggest benefactors are Gov. Charlie Baker and Lt. Gov. Karyn Polito, who have received a total of $4,800 from the departed health care executive, records show."
