SUBSTACK (The Grayzone) - Argentina’s Javier Milei sells out his country for Israel
The Grayzone’s Oscar Leon interviews Argentine journalist Sebastian Salgado about the significance of the bizarre visit this month by President Javier Milei to Israel.
Salgado details the emergence of a project to erode Argentina’s national sovereignty by handing over control of the country’s water to an Israeli company and provide benefits to Israeli expats while selling off the country’s public assets to wealthy investors and multinationals. Salgado addresses disturbing rumors of a plan allowing for the resettlement of as many as 300,000 Israelis in Argentina, and the growing appeal of the Patagonia region to these outsiders. He argues that Milei’s ultimate legacy will be the balkanization of the country by an economic hit man more loyal to a sectarian ultra-Orthodox religious cult than to his own nation’s interests.Open

YOUTUBE (The Hill) - Trump's 2027 budget proposal would cut thousands of TSA jobs as part of privatization push
President Trump’s 2027 budget proposal would cut thousands of Transportation Security Administration (TSA) jobs in a push toward privatizing the agency founded in 2001 that is housed under the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Conservatives have long sought to outsource airport security, arguing that shifting screening to contractors would cut costs and improve operational efficiency. Critics — including labor groups and some Democrats — say private companies would prioritize profit over security, risking passengers’ safety and leading to significant job losses.
