Lead Nation

I respect any vote for Hillary Clinton premised on her superior play of a rigged game of thrones. In terms of benefitting from a political economic system, detractors and supporters appear to agree. She's among the best.

When carrying two devices inconvenienced Queen H, she exclusively (NYT) used private mail to conduct the foreign policy of the United States. Finding the revolving door between private and State business too burdensome, she took it off the axis. What revolving door? 

Clinton represents the logical end of the bipartisan elite consensus to privatize gains - and bill losses to the public. Where Cheney laundered State business to friends at Halliburton, Clinton routed State business directly through her family's private foundation. Literally and tangibly. In this last election of The Boomer Generation, Hillary Clinton represents the apex predator immune to rules or change - an anomalous conservationist/conservative of the status quo in a revolutionary era. 

The Clinton Clan's conservatism is so plain that it's evident even to George W Bush:
Given the near certainty of Hillary’s bid, Bush’s logic about his brother Jeb entering the campaign was mathematical: “What difference does it make,” he said at the time, “if the order is Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama/Clinton or it is Bush/Clinton/Bush/Obama/Bush?” (Time)
The dynastic American families of the current political order aren't enemies. They aren't even competitive. They are interchangeable. From all sides, global and American oligarchs - and the bipartisan New World Order - face revolution. From Sanders to Trump to al-Baghdadi to Putin to a shattered influence network (MIT Media Lab). I imagine a sleepless Clinton reading her hero:  
The conservative in a revolutionary period is always somewhat of an anomaly. Were the pattern of obligations still spontaneous, it would occur to no one to be a conservative, for a serious alternative to the existing structure would be inconceivable. But once there exists a significant revolutionary party, even more once a revolution has actually triumphed, two complementary questions have been admitted as valid, more symbolic in their very appearance than any answer that may be given: What is the meaning of authority? (A World Restored)
Election 2016: the year triangulation failed, the center did not hold, and things fell apart.

America Versus America

Before Mexico extradited Joaquin Guzman ( Department of State profile ) to Brooklyn on the final day of the Obama Administration, an assassin murdered the 37 year old Mexican judge assigned to Guzman's case . CCTV captured the point blank assassination: a young judge shot in the back of the head while jogging across the street ( YouTube ). Once in Brooklyn, the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York described Guzman's ability to influence politicians, judges, police, and militaries across the world, presented eleven exhibits, and petitioned New York's Eastern District court to detain Guzman before trial ( pdf ): "In sum, it is difficult to imagine another person with a greater risk of fleeing prosecution than Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera." With good reason. Guzman twice escaped maximum security prison. And the Brooklyn US Attorney wants Guzman to forfeit $14 billion. Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman  escaped authorities and ...

Blue Magic

Southern Command's boss, Marine John Kelly, stepped down Friday, 1/8/2016 ( CSPAN ). He gave his final press conference at the Pentagon. Kelly toured Iraq and lost a son to combat i n  Sangin, Afghanistan,  Nov. 9, 2010.  The man put skin in the game for USA and lost. He bravely and h onorably answered questions about his personal pain as a parent. His support for Gold Star families . By my count, Kelly fielded 16 questions. 6 concerned Guantanamo Bay detainee transfer operations. Prisoner logistics. People movement. To/from Cuba. 3 questions concerned Kelly's POV on Iraq and Afghanistan wars. He discussed women in combat. Fighting in Sangin, Afghanistan. Photo attributed to Marines November 2010 . The same month Kelly's son was killed.  " They had called it “Sangingrad.” American forces rotated in because UK public refused to accept the casualty count. A question about Colombia. Venezuela. UAV. Kelly's opening statement emphasized the "great" 2...

DRAFT : #ChicagoIguala

#ChicagoIguala ( twitter ) refers to the trade corridor connecting two battlefields in the narcotics wars - one in Mexico. One in Chicago. A unique attribute of markets along the corridor is the frequency of violence, shooting, and unsolved murder. From that perspective, #ChicagoIguala is shorthand for a multi-year, transcontinental murder mystery involving 100s of thousands of Americans. It's also a symbol for state complicity and corruption in extrajudicial killing, kidnapping and disappearances. It's code for "a blackout in our history". Document storage at Juarez, MX PD. As see in Narcocultura . A road map or way finding tool (of sorts) to American security. I hypothesize that insecurity and security are decided in these towns . These are selected by two different methodologies right now: US comes from FBI Table 6 2014 and is sorted for homicides per capita per square mile - a density of homicide metric ( source ) pan American data comes from Seguridad ...
