The show is being aired live from Noon to 2 PM (Eastern) on WNYE (91.5 FM) in New York, an NPR-affiliated station.
I live in western Massachusetts, so maybe I should go to the Boston Indymedia. But you see they have the most impossible-to -comprehend site I've ever encountered (and I have 200 sites in my password encrypter). They always say your email will be hidden, but then they show it anyway! WTF! So I come here. But, you see, THIS SITE HAS BEEN DOWN FOR THE LAST 24 HOURS!
As Portland's Sit/Lie ordinance is deemed as unconstitutional, there is evidence all over Portland of underground actions protesting the law. (Some popped up all over the city before the circuit court decision).

Earliest comprehensive account of CIA psyops to use Iran Elections to overthrow the Iran Regime, in a campaign that hasn't stopped since... ..."The goal of these strategies, Corsi announced at his event, was to incite mass protests against Iran's June 17 presidential elections and thus try to destabilize the regime. As early as 2003, Reuters printed allegations that the US had infiltrated several million dollars into the country to bribe officials and pay protesters. The Economist of June 13, 2003 headlined; "More unrest on the streets of Tehran. Is America pulling the strings?"
This article describes Obama's plan as what would be another pro-Wall Street, looting through debt scheme. I posted the full report before the article for obvious reasons.
I actually don't like the tone of this article in some ways, (from a German army author), yet the content explains much. The information in it fills in the blanks of what is missing to fully explain the present economic crisis. "From July to September 2008, China gradually reduced its investment in the US real estate banks Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The US govt needs $1.5 billion in foreign credits day after day...", is a fact that somehow is evaded in discussions about this.
Recent events have highlighted the fact that anti-Semitic organizers in Portland, Oregon are relying on "Leftist" spaces and groups to tolerate their efforts and ideology.

The US has a pretty definitive history in interfering with the natural flow of politics in Iran. The United States has acted maliciously in the past by subverting a democratically elected Prime Minister of Iran with the Shah in 1953. Could this be happening now? While protests can be encouraging to watch, we all know that this means nothing in and of itself; remember Iraqi's ripping down the statue of Saddam Hussein? Good protests are the ones the media doesn't cover.
Now that the dust has begun to settle on President Obama's latest broken promise to the LGBT community -- his egregious brief FOR the Defense of Marriage Act, comparing equal marriage rights to incest and pederasty -- it's time to examine how we got to this sorry state of affairs.
Over 30 Single Payer activists gather, for the second time in less than two days, to hold Senator Wyden accountable for his non-position towards SP.
There are a lot of activists swooping into PDX for the Let Live weekend (letlivefoundation.org/conference) and the surge against animal abuse begins Friday the 26th with a rally at Ungar furs, SW 12th & Yamhill (2 blocks west of the library). If you want help animals then come "Raise your fist and your voice, (cause) fox & mink have no choice!" Ungar has been slaughtering innocent animals for 103 years and is the last furrier in downtown Portland. Although the Let Live Conference ends on Sunday night a lot of animal advocates are sticking around for another rally on Monday at Ungar.

Greenpeace and Other Environmental Groups Oppose Waxman-Markey Climate Bill
Interview with Damon Moglen, Greenpeace Global Warming Campaign director, conducted by Scott Harris
Second round of action targeting Senator Ron Wyden
"From the middle of July to the beginning of September, China gradually reduced its investment in the US real estate banks Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The US government needs at least $1.5 billion in foreign credits day after day. The financial-political running amok gives the empire a breather. The greatest debtor of the world cannot force the law of trade any more.."
For more than a week, Iran has been convulsed by mass demonstrations denouncing election fraud. Hundreds of thousands have repeatedly taken to the streets to denounce the government, which is now threatening, and beginning to carry out, a bloody crackdown. This time around, imperialist intervention is veiled: the White House feigns neutrality, the Western media go all out for the opposition, while in the background various agencies provide vital technical aid. In reality, all candidates in the presidential vote swear allegiance to the Islamic Republic, and the supposed moderate reformers are no less butchers and enemies of poor and working people than the conservative "populist" government. The situation cries out for revolutionary leadership independent of all factions of the theocracy, to wage a struggle for workers revolution against imperialism and clerical reaction.
The beloved Dr. Gabriel Cousens is coming to Portland, Oregon in August to lead a 7-day juice fast. The event will include yoga, meditation, juicing, guest speakers and other fun activities.

It's the 2009 presidential election in Iran and opposition leader Mir-Houssein Mousavi declares victory hours before the polls close, insuring that any result to the contrary will be called into question. Western media goes into overdrive, fighting with each other to see who can offer the most hyperbolic denunciation of the vote and President Ahmadenijad's apparent victory (BBC wins by publishing bald-faced lies about the supposed popular uprising which it is later forced to retract). On June 13th, 30000 "tweets" begin to flood Twitter with live updates from Iran, most written in English and provided by a handful of newly-registered users with identical profile photos. The Jerusalem Post writes a story about the Iran Twitter phenomenon a few hours after it starts (and who says Mossad isn't staying up to date with new media?). Now, YouTube is providing a "Breaking News" link at the top of every page linking to the latest footage of the Iranian protests (all shot in high def, no less). Welcome to Destabilization 2.0, the latest version of a program that the western powers have been running for decades in order to overthrow foreign, democratically elected governments that don't yield to the whims of western governments and multinational corporations.

As official videographer for the U.S. government, Kurt Sonnenfeld was detailed to Ground Zero on September 11, 2001, where he spent one month filming 29 tapes: "What I saw at certain moments and in certain places ... is very disturbing!" He never handed them over to the authorities and has been persecuted ever since. Kurt Sonnenfeld lives in exile in Argentina, where he wrote « El Perseguido » (the persecuted). His recently-published book tells the story of his unending nightmare and drives another nail into the coffin of the government's account of the 9/11 events. Below is an exclusive interview by Voltairenet.
Healthcare activists and their cross-supporters shall participate in a series of actions targeting Senator Wyden and/both others. Check it out!
Documentary by Avi Lewis (THe Take) on how California has created a fiscal train wreck to destroy social services using the opportunity presented by the financial crisis. If this wasn't planned, then I don't know what was...
New Orleans-based Rebuild Green co-founder and Chief Prosecutor for the "San Diego Citizen's Grand Jury on the Crimes of 9/11" Don Paul was recently interviewed about the Obama Administration's first 100 days and about his "The World Is Turning: `9/11,' The Movement for Justice & Reclaiming America for the World" book.
"We are victims of an ideology of perpetual economic growth. This growth mania now collides with reality. Ideologies usually seem very normal. For a long time people believed they could pay ransom for their sins with letters of indulgence. Sicknesses, ruined families, auto accidents and thunderstorms promote growth without raising prosperity.."

Iranians do not need or want us to teach them about liberty and representative government. They have long embodied this struggle. It is we who need to be taught. It was Washington that orchestrated the 1953 coup to topple Iran's democratically elected government, the first in the Middle East, and install the compliant shah in power. It was Washington that forced Prime Minister Mohammed Mossadegh, a man who cared as much for his country as he did for the rule of law and democracy, to spend the rest of his life under house arrest. We gave to the Iranian people the corrupt regime of the shah and his savage secret police and the primitive clerics that rose out of the swamp of the dictator's Iran. Iranians know they once had a democracy until we took it away.
Last Saturday, dozens of elephant supporters turned out at the Oregon Zoo to educate the public about the plight of elephants in zoos. This was part of an international day of action, in which people all over the world rejected the premise that forcing elephants to entertain humans in tiny enclosures is worth the cost to the animals. Here is a quick report back from my perspective, but I urge others to post their thoughts and photographs as well.
A CIA destabilization process is at work in Iran and few even among the left in America are able to comprehend it, but have come to the conclusion it has something to do with democracy.
There has been a disturbing pattern of posts recently in which the terms "breeder" and "non breeder" have cropped up. The term "breeder" is used as a derogatory term for parents, people who have given birth. While "non-breeder" is, by corollary, also used to denigrate people who have had babies. (This has been coming up especially often lately, as one poster has chosen to use the name "non breeder (because I care about the planet)" in their author line, which has led others to point out that the implication is that those who have given birth do not care about the planet. This is a touchy topic that has derailed several other threads, mostly animal rights threads. It's something that deserves to be discussed, but preferably not at the expense of other important topics. So let's talk here.
Liberty Hall fundraiser on Saturday July 4th
A ruling today coming from Multnomah County Courts tells The city of Portland that "they are unconstitutionally exceeding the city's authority, regarding the sit/lie law."
The following report was found on (Portlands) Street Roots website
Stephen Kinzer's book, All the Shah's Men: An American Coup and the Roots of Middle East Terror, tells the story of the overthrow of Iran's democratically-elected leader, Mohammed Mosaddeq, by the CIA and the British MI6 in 1953. The CIA bribed Iranian government officials, businessmen, and reporters, and paid Iranians to demonstrate in the streets.
The 1953 street demonstrations, together with the Cold War claim that the US had to grab Iran before the Soviets did, served as the US government's justification for overthrowing Iranian democracy. What the Iranian people wanted was not important.
Government paramilitary groups shut down main squares in Tehran, Shiraz, Tabriz, Isfahan and other major cities.
We know somewhere between 17 and 100 people are dead just in Tehran and hundreds injured. The number of deaths in other cities is not known yet. Mr Rafsanjani's daughter along with 4 other family members were arrested, which signals to a large power struggle between the clerics on the expediency council. In my opinion, Mr Obama is playing it perfect so far. The NeoCons would love to drag Obama down the same road they dragged Jimmy Carter with the CIA orchestrated Hostage Crisis of 1979-1980 in Iran. Hostages were released one day after Reagan's inauguration.

The following article was posted on the Sea Lion Defense Brigade website (sealiondefensebrigade.org) recently. Brigadiers want to thank all of the people who helped with sea lion monitoring and defense throughout this difficult spring. Please be aware that we continue to need people willing to monitor the Astoria haul out site, we still need people to help educate the public about sea lions, and we will *really* be needing sea lion defenders next spring when the killing is scheduled to start again. If you can help, please contact us either by emailing
 info@sealiondefensebrigade.org, or else by calling Matt Rossell at (503)249-9996.
Antifascists Shut Down Christian Identity Movement in Binghamton, NY
His flippant attitude toward Iranian protesters allows a space to think through what links everyday people in the US and Iran—the desire for democracy and freedom, which may contain the universal ability to break through the cynicism of the business analysts, oil traders and would-be dictators.
On Thursday, 06.18.2009, Nora Barrows Friedman, co-host of KPFA-Berkeley's Flashpoints Investigative Radio, spoke with independent journalist Ann Garrison about oil wars, oil taxes, and California's proposal to tax oil and natural gas.
"Technological solutions like cap-and-trade do not change our ecological footprint, climate change or the frauds of banks and big business. The edifice must be debated and changed: the role of government, the illusions about market and democracy, public and profit goals, long-term and short-term demands and stakeholders and shareholders.."
