Sen. Chuck Schumer caused a scene at a Manhattan restaurant when he began yelling at a wealthy and well-connected Donald Trump supporter that the POTUS is "a liar."

Schumer, the top Senate Democrat, lost his cool on Sunday night at Upper East Side restaurant Sette Mezzo, according to witnesses.

He was dining with friends when he encountered Joseph A. Califano Jr. — the former US secretary of health, education and welfare under President Jimmy Carter and domestic policy adviser to President Lyndon B. Johnson — and his wife, Hilary, who were having a quiet dinner.

Onlookers said Schumer was incensed that Hilary — the daughter of William S. Paley, the founder and chairman of CBS — had voted for Trump, even though her husband, Joseph, is a well-known Democrat.

Comment: The Democrats are truly losing it.

Delusional Noam Chomsky: Trump could stage a 'false flag' terror attack and 'change the country instantly'

Noam Chomsky
Author and political philosopher Noam Chomsky sounded a dire warning on Monday in an interview with AlterNet's Jan Frel, saying that President Donald Trump could stage a "false flag" terror attack in an effort to consolidate his power and strip Americans of their constitutional rights.


Comment: Chomsky clearly doesn't have a handle on what Trump is trying to do - and what his parameters likely are. False flag terrorism is the purview of the Deep State - those folks who are right now trying to undermine, subvert and negate any of the goals Trump has to ultimately curtail US wars of aggression; a very difficult undertaking that must be pursued with great caution. Not only does Chomsky not seem to understand this, but he also came out in support of a Clinton presidency - the very pathological personality who would have capitalized on a false flag scenario, and who has a track record of creating chaos on the ground in Libya and Syria. Won't someone please explain this to Chomsky?!


Chomsky warned that eventually the people who voted for Trump will realize that his "promises are built on sand" and begin to lose faith in his presidency, at which point Trump will need someone to scapegoat, so he will say, "'Well, I'm sorry, I can't bring your jobs back because these bad people are preventing it.' And the typical scapegoating goes to vulnerable people: immigrants, terrorists, Muslims and elitists, whoever it may be. And that can turn out to be very ugly."


Comment: Chomsky once again seems to get it all wrong. Trump has already nixed the TTP - a criminal boondoggle for international corporations that would seek to further move jobs out of the US and further rape countries of their economic sovereignty. Clinton would have found a way to push this policy through given her slavish fealty to elitist goals.


"I think that we shouldn't put aside the possibility that there would be some kind of staged or alleged terrorist act, which can change the country instantly," Chomsky said.

United Nations Nikki Haley said, explaining why the US had blocked a former Palestinian prime minister's appointment to lead the UN's Libya mission.

"So when they decided to try and put a Palestinian [former Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad] in one of the highest positions that had ever been given at the UN, we said no and we had him booted out," Haley said at the annual Policy Conference of the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) on Monday.

"That doesn't mean he wasn't a nice man," she continued, adding "that doesn't mean he wasn't good to America."

Trading in local currencies has already started — and lays the groundwork for facilitating BRICS transactions in gold

Recent progress made in streamlining trade in local currencies has brought Moscow and Beijing closer to creating a financial architecture that could facilitate transactions in gold.

As we reported last week, Moscow and Beijing took another step towards de-dollarization with the opening of a yuan clearing bank in Russia. And earlier this month Russia's Central Bank opened its first-ever foreign branch in Beijing to allow for better communication between Russian and Chinese financial authorities.

China's customs administration announced on Tuesday it will punish companies for reporting false business data. The warning comes as Beijing attempts to curb a massive capital flight.

According to the statement, companies considered "discredited" may be subject to more stringent inspections when applying for government tax rebates, or see an impact on their import or export quotas. Company representatives may be restricted from traveling abroad.

The General Administration of Customs said that only when discredited firms pay a high economic price they "won't dare to be dishonest."

Democrats are calling for the House Intelligence Committee chair to step down after he confirmed meeting with a source on the grounds of the White House before announcing new evidence of "incidental" surveillance on the Trump transition team.

On Wednesday, House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-California) announced that the intelligence community "incidentally" intercepted information on President Donald Trump's transition team.

Nunes is leading the House panel's investigation into whether there was Russian interference in the 2016 election, and by extension, any possible collusion with the Trump team during that time.

HRW: Saudi self-investigation not sufficient, UN should probe deadly refugee boat attack

Human Rights Watch has expressed doubts that a Saudi-led investigation into the alleged coalition strike on a refugee boat earlier this month will result in an impartial investigation.

Several dozen people were killed when a boat carrying Somali refugees off the coast of Yemen was fired on from a helicopter on March 16. Women and children were among the victims when the vessel was hit near the Bab al-Mandeb strait, the International Organisation for Migration said earlier of the incident, which was condemned by the Human Rights Watch (HRW) over the weekend.

While all parties to the conflict denied involvement in the attack, HRW pinned the blame for the strike on the Saudi Arabia-led coalition.

"Only the Saudi-led coalition has military aircraft. The Houthi-Saleh forces do not. Somalia, which supports the coalition, called on the coalition to investigate," the HRW statement said, calling on the UN to investigate the deadly boat attack.

The US' ABM sites in Europe and on warships patrolling Russia's borders are creating the potential for America to launch an overwhelming surprise nuclear strike on Russia, the Russian general staff said.

"The presence of American ABM sites in Europe and ABM-capable ships in the seas and oceans close to Russia's territory creates a powerful clandestine potential for delivering a surprise nuclear missile strike against Russia," Viktor Poznikhir, deputy head of operations of the Russian general staff, told a disarmament conference in Geneva.

The Conference on Disarmament being held in Switzerland over five days this week is an international forum focusing on global security and the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction with the participation of 65 member states.

The US' global antiballistic missile system is provoking a new arms race, Russia's top brass has warned, adding that the US system, which includes sites in Alaska, Romania, and Poland, compromises Russia's nuclear deterrence capabilities.

Pentagon: US won't alter rules of engagement in Mosul 'just because of civilian deaths'

The Pentagon said it will not alter the rules of engagement in the war against Islamic State (IS, former ISIS/ISIL) in Iraq as the US-led coalition faces allegations of killing dozens of civilians in one of their airstrikes on Mosul.

US forces are not planning to change the way they conduct airstrikes despite the battle for Mosul entering more densely populated areas in the Western part of the city, the spokesman of the US Central Command, Colonel John Thomas, told reporters.

"General Votel is not looking into changing the way we operate other than to say our processes are good and we want to make sure we live by those processes," Thomas said, referring to the General Joseph Votel who heads US Central Command, as cited by Reuters.

Comment: For more on the atrocity that is the US bombing of Mosul, see: Operation Mosul: A Medieval Massacre
In the battle for Aleppo, Russia and Syria established humanitarian corridors - without aid from the UN or other countries. Great care was taken to avoid civilian casualties, why liberating the city entirely took so long.

Moscow ceased aerial operations in October 2016 to protect civilians, long before the battle for Aleppo was won in late December.

The West and supportive media disgracefully portrayed a heroic Leningrad-type liberation as naked aggression.

They're largely silent on the rape and destruction of Mosul. What's reported falsely portrays liberation. Nothing about US terror-bombing mass murder. An orchestrated coverup of reality continues.

No help was provided for desperate city civilians, tapped in harm's way. In months of fighting, likely thousands were massacred, countless others injured, hundreds of thousands displaced - by indiscriminate US terror-bombing and ground artillery fire.

Western media are complicit by silence with rare exceptions. On March 23, London's Independent cited local media sources, saying Thursday airstrikes on Mosul caused "230" civilian deaths.
