  1. "The Lobbying Disclosure Act is enforced by the US Attorney for DC, an office currently held by former Fox News personality Jeanine Pirro. Those who “knowingly fail to comply” with the law are subject to civil fines maxing out at $200,000, while those who “knowingly and corruptly [fail] to comply” face up to five years in prison.

    In the case of the revamped East Wing and ballroom, only one corporation reported its donation to the fund on lobbying disclosure files. Yet twenty-six other firms have been identified as donors by media reports or the White House itself. Those include corporations with lucrative contracts or high-stakes legal matters before the Trump administration in the last year.

    That includes Micron, which last year shut down its consumer-facing computer chip business after accepting more than $6.1 billion in data center semiconductor contracts from the Trump administration; Union Pacific Railroad, which is seeking merger approval for its plan to create the company’s first single-line transcontinental megarailroad; and Palantir, the Silicon Valley surveillance giant that recently scored a historic ten-year, $10 billion Pentagon contract (as well as one for bossware at the Agriculture Department.)

    “The hidden influence being exerted on the current Trump administration by lobbyists — who are also not making the required disclosures — is unprecedented,” said Kedric Payne, vice president, general counsel, and senior director of ethics at the Campaign Legal Center."

    "Der grüne Protektionismus der #EU geht auf Kosten Afrikas

    Der neue EU-Klimazoll #CBAM leistet das Gegenteil von Klimagerechtigkeit: Er vertieft die Logik des gescheiterten Emissionshandels, um europäischen Unternehmen Profite zu sichern – zum Nachteil insbesondere afrikanischer Länder."

  9. Trump Is Tearing Apart the North American Auto Industry

    By Taylor C. Noakes

    "In the 1960s, the Auto Pact deal integrated the US and Canada’s auto sectors. Donald Trump’s trade war will all but guarantee its unraveling, spelling catastrophe for workers and firms alike."

  10. "#VW ist, wie jedes kapitalistische Unternehmen, in erster Linie eine Wertpumpe, die dazu da ist, Topmanager & Aktionäre zu bereichern; eine Bottom-up-Umverteilungsmaschine.

    [...]

    #Volkswagen schert sich einen Dreck um euch & eure Familien«, stimmte er die VW-Mitarbeiter in Chattanooga auf den Kampf ein. So hart das in deutschen Ohren klingen mag: Mit dieser Haltung hat die #UAW vor einer Woche u. a. einen Lohnzuwachs von 20% erzielt."
