He made the ruling class a ton of money. Here’s just a few things he did…
Kissinger sabotaged peace talks in Vietnam: He leaked information to Nixon’s campaign in 1968 to prevent a deal between Johnson and Hanoi, prolonging the war for four more years and killing millions of people.
Kissinger orchestrated the coup in Chile: He supported the overthrow of the democratically elected socialist president Salvador Allende in 1973, and backed the brutal dictatorship of Augusto Pinochet, who tortured and killed thousands of dissidents and implemented neoliberal policies that harmed the majority of Chileans.
Kissinger enabled genocide and repression: He ignored or encouraged the atrocities committed by U.S. allies in Bangladesh, East Timor, Indonesia, Pakistan, and elsewhere, and participated in Operation Condor, a campaign of assassinations of left-wing activists across Latin America.
Kissinger expanded U.S. bombing and intervention: He secretly bombed Cambodia and Laos, killing hundreds of thousands of civilians and paving the way for the Khmer Rouge genocide. He also set the precedent for U.S. presidents to bomb countries without congressional or public oversight, as seen in the War on Terror.
Kissinger was celebrated by the U.S. elite: He received praise and awards from presidents, politicians, journalists, and academics, who admired his geopolitical strategy and ignored or justified his crimes. He was also an informal adviser to several administrations, including Bush and Obama
The Fed reported a processing issue with the Electronic Payments Network, a private sector operator for Automated Clearing House, or ACH, a network that processes transactions.
“There was a processing error with an ACH file last night; it was a manual error associated with the file,” said Gregory MacSweeney, a vice president and head of communications at The Clearing House, the banking association and payments company that owns the EPN processing system.
Concerned about massive gridlock during the 1984 games, Los Angeles officials asked people to stay off the roads. It worked! The city hoped it wouldn’t have to make a similar request this time around but a major expansion of Los Angeles’ public transit system, which includes 98 miles of new railways, is running behind schedule.
Therefore city officials are once again planning to ask residents to stay home during the games to limit traffic congestion, according to Rodney Johnson, Treasurer of LA Metro, whose comments went relatively unnoticed at a recent conference.
