      The secret backstory of how Obama let Hezbollah off the hook

      In its determination to secure a nuclear deal with Iran, the Obama administration derailed an ambitious law enforcement campaign targeting drug trafficking by the Iranian-backed terrorist group Hezbollah, even as it was funneling cocaine into the United States, according to a POLITICO investigation.




      really great story, if you have 30 min to read, it's long. Part I

                • It's not nearly so significant and it'll be buried by tax bill passage, but the Senate just voted to reject Trump's nominee for the Export/Import Bank, Scott Garrett. Among other controversial things he says, he's previously been on the record as wanting the Bank eliminated entirely. US Chamber of Commerce came out strongly against his nomination.

                    • I don't understand the ex-im stuff, and making things hard on OPIC. That's a way to feed at the trough too.

                            • A very good piece of reporting from the NYT on Venezuela and the unmitigated disaster there: https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/...-starving.html

                              Unfortunately, at least IMO, the writers don't particularly care to address the "Why" it happened or even speculate that it might be a result of democratic socialism.

                              I also think this is an appropriate time for a reminder:

                              These days, the American dream is more apt to be realized in South America, in places such as Ecuador, Venezuela and Argentina, where incomes are actually more equal today than they are in the land of Horatio Alger. Who's the banana republic now?
