Beyond Chutzpah: US Charges Venezuela With Narco-Terrorism
US Attorney General Barr’s indictments on March 26 against the government of Venezuela for narco-terrorism go beyond chutzpah. For starters, William P. Barr was chief counsel for the CIA airline Southern Air Transport implicated in the 1980s for running illicit drugs and related narco-terrorism during Iran-Contra. The US charges of drug trafficking against Venezuela are the height of hypocrisy. The world’s leading source of heroin is US-occupied Afghanistan; the US is the world’s largest cocaine market.

*Stephen Silver* *Culture, Americas* [image: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8228288/mediaviewer/rm1208652545] Easily found on Netflix, The Platform is a crackling social thriller.

*Desmond Lachman* *economy, * [image: FILE PHOTO: U.S. President Donald Trump speaks to the media at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland, U.S., March 28, 2020. Jim Watson/Pool via REUTERS/File Photo] Considering the costly delay in formulating a coherent coronavirus policy response, it would be a stretch to say that all is well that has ended well. However, we can at least say that matters could have been a lot worse both economically and socially had Mr. Trump not wisely made the U-turn in fighting this epidemic that he now seems to have made.

*Warfare History Network* *History, Europe* [image: This article originally appeared in 2020 on the Warfare History Network.] A piece of history.

Injustice Prevails Despite Mass Prisoner Release In Cleveland
Since March 14 the Cuyahoga County jail, located in downtown Cleveland, has released hundreds of prisoners to reduce the jail population in light of the coronavirus COVID-19 health emergency. Many people are now asking the obvious question: “Why can’t Cleveland’s example be followed across the country?” Most of the prisoners freed were so-called “nonviolent offenders” not convicted of a crime, yet kept in jail because they lacked the funds to post bail. There are untold numbers of people across the country in a similar situation. They should be released, too.
