Welcome to The Daily Wrap Up, a concise show dedicated to bringing you the most relevant independent news, as we see it, from the last 24 hours (Before checking out the YouTube version below, please consider checking us out on DTube first, as we attempt to being pulling away from YouTube and Google in general) (https://d.tube/#!/v/tlavagabond/to82obgk) To begin today, I would like to acknowledge the work of a leader in the truth movement, and that is Robert Parry of Consortium News. Robert was truly a leading figure in the independent media, I myself was largely unfamiliar with his work until relatively recently, but was quick to see his dedication and drive to bring the truth to stories buried in lies. To even his own admission, that effort played a part in his death. As his work was not easy, and certainly takes a toll on one’s well-being. Yet, that is the sacrifice true journalists such as Robert make to open the eyes of the many still lost in the sea of propaganda that surrounds this country. He will be missed.

From its insurmountable debt and its coinciding collapsing dollar to its crumbling infrastructure and stagnant hold on fossil fuels, this is all due to the outright corporate dominion in the US, and the refusal of the politicians to actually do their job, and represent the people. The vast majority of the decisions made in this country have nothing to do with the people’s will or what is best for the country. Many have begun to see that fact, as much of our very own history is revealed as a lie. And worse yet, those who go too far, and get seen by the general population as the true manipulators they are, rarely ever see true accountability for their crimes against the people. FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe stepping down effective today This is a revealing turn of events that are many are associating with the memo, and that may be the case, but as always I advise prudence in this regard, if only because we have yet to even see if this memo even exists. We only know what we have been told by the plutocrats themselves. I have no doubt gross corruption and abuses of power run rampant in the government, but have serious doubts about the validity of this memo. Yet, I do hope that it is real, and that it does ultimately expose at least some of the criminals in high places. But we should not allow a resignation to be the end of it. If he is resigning, that is, in my eyes, a tacit admission of guilt. So at the very least, the people should demand he be held accountable for the overt corruption that took place at his behest, and under his watch – as well as the many others who have continued to side-step their crimes.
